An Intelligent Health Monitoring Model Based on Fuzzy Deep Neural Network by Tianye Xing, Yidan Wang, Yingxue Liu, Qi Wu, Rong Ma, Xiaoling Shang

“…Aimed at the shortcoming of insufficient samples for training neural networks based on experimental data, this paper proposes to use the finite element method to construct a genetic fuzzy RBF neural network after corresponding processing of the first six-order bending modal frequencies of the structure, so as to realize the localization and detection of delamination damage of composite beams. Injury Assessment. The experimental results of this paper show that the finite element method proposed in this paper can effectively carry out damage localization and damage assessment; compared with the traditional algorithm, the localization accuracy of this algorithm is improved by 20%, and the damage assessment performance is improved by 10%.…”

Variational Estimation of Optimal Signal States for Quantum Channels by Leonardo Oleynik, Junaid Ur Rehman, Hayder Al-Hraishawi, Symeon Chatzinotas

“…By employing a variational algorithm to estimate the trace distance between quantum states, we numerically determine the optimal encoding protocol for the amplitude damping and Pauli channels. Our simulations demonstrate the convergence and accuracy of the method with a few iterations, confirming that optimal conditions for binary quantum communication systems can be variationally determined with minimal computation. …”
