Broad learning system based on attention mechanism and tracking differentiator by LIAO Lüchao, ZOU Weidong, YANG Jialong, LU Huihuang, XIA Yuanqing, GAO Jianlei

“…To alleviate these problems, broad learning system based on attention mechanism and tracking differentiator (TD), abbreviated as A-TD-BLS, was proposed. In terms of model structure, A-TD-BLS introduced self-attention mechanism to the original BLS, and further fused and transformed the extracted features through attention weighting to improve the feature learning ability.In terms of model training methods, a weight optimization algorithm based on tracking differentiator was designed.This method effectively alleviates the overfitting phenomenon of the original BLS by limiting the size of the weight values, significantly reduces the influence of the number of hidden layer nodes on model performance and makes the generalization performance more stable.Moreover, the training algorithm was extended to the BLS incremental learning framework, so that the model can improve performance by dynamically adding hidden layer nodes.Multiple experiments conducted on some benchmark datasets show that compared to the original BLS, the classification accuracy of A-TD-BLS is increased by 1.27% on average on classification datasets and the root mean square error of A-TD-BLS is reduced by 0.53 on average on regression datasets.Besides, A-TD-BLS is less affected by the number of hidden layer nodes and has more stable generalization performance. …”

Power Allocation Technology of Long Time Multi-Star Hopping Beam for LEO Satellite by Ziyi LIU, Xiaoning ZHANG, Zesong FEI

“…LEO satellites have superior development prospects due to their low cost, low latency and small path loss, and are widely used in IoT, B5G and other fields.For the LEO satellite and its coverage area will be in a moving state, a convex optimization-based long-time multi-star beam hopping power allocation algorithm was proposed to maximize the system capacity.Focused on the multi-star hopping beam scenario over a period of time, a system model was developed based on the long-time co-orbital multi-star hopping beam scenario and the long-time heterodyne multi-star hopping beam scenario respectively.The resource allocation algorithm was designed for the two long-time multi-star hopping beams with the weighted objective function as the optimization objective, considered the influence factors of inter-star interference, load balancing and inter-star resource allocation priority, a long-time skipping beam resource allocation algorithm based on convex optimization was proposed.The simulation results showed that the proposed scheme could improve the resource utilization of the system compared with the conventional schemes.…”
