Based on the attribute hierarchy, a valid/invalid item is defined. The judgment method of the valid/invalid item is developed on the relation between reachability matrix and valid items. And valid items are explained from the perspective of graph theory. An incremental augment algorithm for constructing Qr matrix is proposed based on the idea of incremental forward regression, and its validity is theoretically considered. Results of empirical tests are given in order to compare the performance of the incremental augment algo-rithm and the Tatsuoka algorithm upon the running time. Empirical evidence shows that the algorithm outper-forms the Tatsuoka algorithm, and the analysis of the two algorithms also show linear growth with respect to the number of valid items. Mathematical models with 10 attributes are built for the two algorithms by the linear regression analysis.展开更多

It investigates the structure of the sparse parity-check matrix defined by Gallager. It is discovered that the problem of constructing the sparse parity-check matrix requires an algorithm that is efficient in search environments and also is able to work with constraint satisfaction problem. The definition of Q-matrix is given, and it is found that the queen algorithm enables to search the Q-matrix. With properly permuting Q-matrix as sub-matrix, the sparse parity-check matrix which satisfied constraint condition is created, and the good regular-LDPC code that is called the Q-matrix LDPC code is generated. The result of this paper is significant not only for designing low complexity encoder, improving performance and reducing complexity of iterative decoding arithmetic, but also for building practical system of encodable and decodable LDPC code.展开更多

Supposing that the vertical deformation of the soil elements surrounding pile varies in the form of exponent function with radial distance, and considering the nonlinear constitutive relation of stress and strain, the stiffness matrix is established. The mechanics behavior of the pile—soil interface is simulated with a nonlinear interface element. This method can truly express the behavior of the pile-soil system. The load-settlement relation Q-S curves of two big diameter prototype piles on bearing test are analyzed, and satisfying results are obtained.
