A deep insight into some special issues and considerations on use of the process to model aggregated VBR video traffic is made. Different methods to estimate stability parameter a and self-similar parameter H are compared. Processes to generate the linear fractional stable noise (LFSN) and the alpha stable random variables are provided. Model construction and the quantitative comparisons with fractional Brown motion (FBM) and real traffic are also examined. Open problems and future directions are also given with thoughtful discussions.展开更多

Modal information, such as fre-quencies and mode shapes, are widely used for structural dama-ge detection to indicate the health conditions of civil structures.The deep learning algorithm that works on a multiple layer neuralnetwork model termed as deep autoencoder is proposed to learnthe relationship between the modal information and structural stiff-ness parameters. This is achieved via dimension reduction of themodal information feature and a non-linear regression against thestructural stiffness parameters. Numerical tests on a symmetri-cal steel frame model are conducted to generate the data for thetraining and validation, and to demonstrate the efficiency of theproposed approach for vibration based structural damage detec-tion.展开更多
