Regional heat and social attribute aware participant selection mechanis in mobile crowd sensing by Luoyong XIANG, Wen CHEN, Luyang ZHANG

“…Aiming at the problem of tasks that are low reliability acquired by platform and difficult to accomplish on time in user sparse area.A participant selection mechanism that combines regional heat and social attribute aware was proposed.Firstly,considering the influence of different regional heat on task completion,the regional heat was evaluated according to the number of active users,the average residence time of users and the completion of historical task.Secondly,in order to analyze the impact of user social attributes on task completion,the user willingness,reputation and activity were calculated by combining the status information of users and the historical task record of users.Finally,by taking the above factors into account,two different mechanisms of participant selection for social attribute perception were designed for high and low heat areas to maximize quality and number oftask completionrespectively.The results show that the proposed mechanism can significantly improve the overall data quality,and can also perform sensing tasks in sparse areas on time.Meanwhile,compared with SUR and GGA-I,the failure rate is reduced by 66.7% and 50.6% respectively.…”

Adaptive gradient algorithm for hybrid precoding in mmWave MIMO system by Yu ZHANG, Zhi ZHANG, Xiaodai DONG

“…To reduce the complexity of existing hybrid precoding algorithms based on alternating minimization (AltMin) and online learning via gradient descent with momentum in mmWave MIMO systems, aiming at the single-user scenario, the problem of designing the hybrid precoder was reconsidered and an equivalent single hidden layer neural network was proposed.Under the new architecture, the elements of the digital and analog precoder were equivalent to the connecting weights of a single hidden layer neural network, and their optimal solution could be obtained via the weights training method.Inspired by the back propagation (BP) algorithm in feed forward neural networks, an adaptive gradient (AG)-based BP algorithm for hybrid precoding was proposed.Furthermore, the proposed algorithm was extended to the multi-user scenario.The numerical results show that the proposed algorithm achieves approximately the same spectral efficiency as the fully-digital precoding in both the single-user and multi-user scenarios, while has lower complexity than the existing AltMin-based hybrid precoding algorithms and online learning hybrid precoding based on gradient descent with momentum.…”

Application of K-means algorithm based on A-D model in calling abnormal customer mining by Jian ZHOU, Yongge SHI, Meibin HE

“…In order to make use of massive voice communication records and cluster high-quality clients (telecom fraud clients,advertisers) with various kinds of voice communication abnormalities,a behavioral feature model of abnormal voice communication customers was designed and constructed.Based on the model,a clustering analysis algorithm for customers with abnormal voice communication behavior was proposed.First of all,by analyzing the call records of customers,the characteristics of call behaviors was got,such as the number of calls,call rates,and so on.Then AHP-DEMATEL model was constructed by blending the AHP model and DEMATEL method.Secondly,based on the model,an improved K-means algorithm was proposed to cluster the abnormal clients according to the voice communication records.Finally,the real data was used to verify the analysis.The results show that compared with other similar algorithms,the proposed algorithm improves the performance of multi-type abnormal customer comprehensive clustering analysis and single-type abnormal customer clustering analysis greatly.…”
