Inverse Strategies for Identifying the Parameters of Constitutive Laws of Metal Sheets by P. A. Prates, A. F. G. Pereira, N. A. Sakharova, M. C. Oliveira, J. V. Fernandes

“…It highlights that the identification procedure is dictated by the loading conditions, the geometry of the sample, the type of experimental results selected for the analysis, the cost function, and optimization algorithm used. Also, the type of constitutive law (isotropic and/or kinematic hardening laws and/or anisotropic yield criterion), whose parameters are intended to be identified, affects the whole identification procedure.…”

Research on filter-based adversarial feature selection against evasion attacks by Qimeng HUANG, Miaomiao WU, Yun LI

“…With the rapid development and widespread application of machine learning technology, its security has attracted increasing attention, leading to a growing interest in adversarial machine learning.In adversarial scenarios, machine learning techniques are threatened by attacks that manipulate a small number of samples to induce misclassification, resulting in serious consequences in various domains such as spam detection, traffic signal recognition, and network intrusion detection.An evaluation criterion for filter-based adversarial feature selection was proposed, based on the minimum redundancy and maximum relevance (mRMR) method, while considering security metrics against evasion attacks.Additionally, a robust adversarial feature selection algorithm was introduced, named SDPOSS, which was based on the decomposition-based Pareto optimization for subset selection (DPOSS) algorithm.SDPOSS didn’t depend on subsequent models and effectively handles large-scale high-dimensional feature spaces.Experimental results demonstrate that as the number of decompositions increases, the runtime of SDPOSS decreases linearly, while achieving excellent classification performance.Moreover, SDPOSS exhibits strong robustness against evasion attacks, providing new insights for adversarial machine learning.…”

Three-Dimensional Extended Target Tracking and Shape Learning Based on Double Fourier Series and Expectation Maximization by Hongge Mao, Xiaojun Yang

“…Specifically, the 3D shape is modeled using a radial function estimated via double Fourier series (DFS) expansion, and orientation is represented using the compact, singularity-free axis-angle method. The ECM algorithm facilitates this joint estimation: an Unscented Kalman Smoother infers kinematics in the E-step, while the M-step estimates DFS shape parameters and rotation angles by minimizing regularized cost functions, promoting robustness and smoothness. …”
