A Dynamic State Cluster-Based Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm by Zhenya Diao, Fei Yu, Hongrun Wu, Xuewen Xia

“…To address these limitations, this paper introduces a dynamic state cluster-based particle swarm optimization (DSCPSO) algorithm, which employs population phenotypic entropy based on clustering technique. (1) The algorithm provides theoretical splitting points by mathematically analyzing the population into four states: convergence, exploitation, escape, and exploration, enabling more effective parameter adaptive mechanisms. (2) DSCPSO incorporates sinusoidal chaos mapping to dynamically adjust inertia weights, allowing particles to better align with the population’s evolutionary state. (3) During the convergence state, an intelligent particle migration strategy (IPMS) enhances search efficiency within the solution space, preventing unnecessary computational resource consumption. Eventually, comparative analysis with 10 advanced existing algorithms on the CEC2017 and CEC2022 benchmark suites demonstrates that DSCPSO achieves competitive performance across over 70% of the functions, validating the algorithm’s effectiveness and superiority. …”

Vocal constraints on song amplitude in star finches Bathilda ruficauda by Hana Goto, Masayo Soma, Ayumi Mizuno, Henrik Brumm

“…This suggests that the frequency-amplitude correlation is a more general phenomenon in bird vocalisations, independent of the overall source amplitude of a species. While the evolution of birdsong is often viewed as constrained by neural costs and body size, or selective pressures from predators and social aggression, our results emphasise the importance of understanding phonetic features as well. …”

Numerical modeling of complex radiative heat transfer by N. I. Moskalenko, L. V. Rodionov, M. S. Khamidullina, I. A. Afanasyev

“…The application of numerical simulation of the fine structure of the absorption and emission in the complex problems of radiative heat transfer is consider when the structural characteristics of the environment and the boundary conditions are different strong inhomogeneities in temperature, chemical composition and distribution of the radiation sources. The very nature of radiative heat transfer and temperature variation trends over time are determined by the acute effects of selection of the spectra and their modeling require knowledge of spectral line parameters: intensity, half-width position of the centers, contours. …”

Data forwarding incentive mechanism based on auction model in mobile social network by Hao LIU, Zhi-gang CHEN, Lian-ming ZHANG

“…Abstract:A data forwarding incentive mechanism based on auction model in mobile social network was proposed.In this incentive mechanism,the first-price sealed auction mode was extended,the transaction mode of virtual currency payment was adopted,and the procedure of data forwarding between nodes was abstracted into the auction transaction model.Based on the node's resource state,the virtual currency and the data property,the evaluation function of data forwarding transaction was given,and then the node gives the corresponding price according to the evaluation function and game strategy.Through the game analysis,the Nash equilibrium solution of AMIM was found,and the lowest bidder,of which the bid price was lower than the evaluation of data forwarding request node would been selected as the service provider for this data forwarding.In this incentive mechanism,the rational mobile nodes were enforced to voluntarily participate in data forwarding cooperation to maximize their own interests.The simulation experiment shows that AMIM mechanism can effectively reduce the energy consumption and improve the success rate and efficiency of data forwarding in the whole network system.…”
