Three-dimensional guidance control for vehicle convoy and interception by Yihua Dong, Yuefen Tan, Jingang Zhao, Wencheng Wang

“…In the 3-D space, this paper implements vehicle convoy and interception by using guidance strategy. Based on the differential equations for the range, the pitch angle and the yaw angle between successive vehicles, the deviated pursuit and the proportional navigation are proposed to derive decentralized control strategy for vehicle convoy and interception control. …”

Les entreprises chinoises sous la tutelle directe du gouvernement illustrées par leur investissement en Afrique by Thierry Pairault

“…We will therefore discuss the resurgence of the strategic concept of “central enterprise”, then will study the degree of autonomy of these central enterprises as expressed by their direct investment strategy abroad and more specifically in Africa. Finally, it appears that the Chinese government has an African strategy that it intends to implement through its “central enterprises”, which have much greater autonomy than we might suppose at first sight.…”

Research on forecast and recommendation technology of taxi passengers based on time-varying Markov decision process by Tong WANG, Shan GAO, Huiwen GONG, Bo SUN

“…To solve the problems of unloading rate caused by blind passenger search of taxis, the hotspot recommendation strategy of taxi passengers was proposed.The proposed strategy could optimize the process of matching passengers to the greatest extent to increase the efficiency of passenger search.Based on the historical trajectory data of taxis and the time series characteristics of hotspot passenger information, a segment prediction method was proposed based on recurrent neural network (SPBR) and a passenger recommendation model was proposed based on time-varying Markov decision process (TMDP).Experimental results show that the RMSE predicted by SPBR algorithm is 67.6%, 71.1% and 64.5% lower than the SVR, CART and BPNN algorithms.The expected return of taxis based on the TMDP algorithm is 35.9% higher than historical expectations.…”

Video object segmentation by 2-D mesh-based motion analysis and morphological filtering by WANG Yu-jian, GAO Jian-po, WU Zhen-yang

“…A new temporal-spatial video object segmentation algorithm was proposed.This algorithm was based on 2-D mesh-based motion analysis and an improved spatial automatic segmenting strategy of morphological filtering.Firstly,higher order statistics was used for motion analysis of the 2-D mesh representation.After post-processing,relatively fine motion detection mask was quickly obtained.Then a novel watershed segmenting strategy based on alternating sequential filtering by reconstruction and adaptive threshold was applied to get the accurate boundary of the foreground object.Fi-nally,the video object was effectively extracted by fusing the temporal and spatial segmentation via region-based method.Experimental results indicate that the proposed algorithm assimilates the advantages of 2-D mesh-based algorithms and pixel-based algorithms,and achieves satisfactory subject and object performance.…”

Torque Dynamic Coordinated Control for HEV based on the ISG Motor Torque Compensation by Deng Tao, Lu Renzhi, Li Yanan, Lin Chunsong

“…For the fluctuations problem of driveline torque which results from working-mode switching of dual-clutch parallel hybrid electric vehicles with integrated starter / Generator（ ISG）,focusing on study the process of transferring from pure electric working model to only engine working model.Based on the method of optimal the total efficiency of hybrid electric vehicle,the steady-state energy management control strategy is established,and then steady torque distribution area is achieved,which is the basis of coordination and control of dynamic torque.For the problem adopted the engine dynamic torque estimate genetic algorithm based on BP neural network algorithm,and ISG motor torque compensation method is proposed for dynamic torque coordinated control strategy.The simulation results show that the method proposed above can significantly decreases the torque fluctuations of working model transferring process,at the same time,the jerk to driveline is greatly reduced.…”

Bayesian network structure learning algorithm based on hybrid binary salp swarm-differential evolution algorithm by Bin LIU, Ruixing FAN, Haoran LIU, Liyue ZHANG, Haiyu WANG, Chunlan ZHANG

“…Aiming at the disadvantages of Bayesian network structure learned by heuristic algorithms,which were trapping in local minimums and having low search efficiency,a method of learning Bayesian network structure based on hybrid binary slap swarm-differential evolution algorithm was proposed.An adaptive scale factor was used to balance local and global search in the swarm grouping stage.The improved mutation operator and crossover operator were taken into salp search strategy and differential search strategy respectively to renew different subswarms in the update stage.Two-point mutation operator was adopted to improve the swarm’s diversity in the stage of merging of subswarms.The convergence analysis of the proposed algorithm demonstrates that best structure can be found through the iterative search of population.Experimental results show that the convergence accuracy and efficiency of the proposed algorithm are improved compared with other algorithms.…”
