Device interference ability and link stability based on multi-devices cooperation and maintenance mechanism by Jie ZHANG, Lan-lan RUI, Shao-yong GUO, Xue-song QIU, Yi-fan DING

“…To reduce costs of cooperation solutions maintenance and meet certain demand of service quality,a multi-devices cooperation and maintenance mechanism (MDCMM) based on device interference ability and link stability was proposed.With amulti-devices cooperation model,and an evaluation index considering both the heterogeneous device interference ability and the link stability,MDCMM provides a maintenance mechanism of the ubiquitous service in a certain period based on dynamic planning optimization strategy,aims at reduces interference of cooperation solutions switching and meet users’ diverse needs.Simulation results show that,compared with the existing mechanism,MDCMM has lower maintenance costs,smoother cooperation solutions,and better able to guarantee the user experience.…”

Intuitionistic fuzzy kernel matching pursuit ensemble based target recognition by Xiao-dong YU, Ying-jie LEI, Ya-fei SONG, Shao-hua YUE, Jun-hong HU

“…Considering that the generalization of the learning machine performed poorly in the present intuitionistic fuzzy kernel matching pursuit algorithm(IFKMP)due to its training method and stopping criteria,a new recognition method based on intuitionistic fuzzy kernel matching pursuit ensemble(IFKMPE)was proposed by introducing the idea of ensemble learning.In IFKMPE,the double perturbation strategy including sample and parameter perturbation was applied to generate the sub-learning machine,the recognition results were fused by the principle of majority voting,and therefore both the classify accuracy and generation ability were enhanced.Simulation results show the new algorithm IFKMPE performs better in terms of recognition accuracy and stability of sample learning compared with the traditional ones.…”
