Evidence combination based on the degree of credibility and falsity by ONGYa-fei S, ANGXiao-dan W, EILei L, UEAi-jun X

“…D-S evidence theory has been widely used in various fields of information fusion due to its efficiency in deal-ing with uncertain information.Unfortunately,combination of conflicting evidences by classical Dempster's rule may produce counter-intuitive results.To alleviate this problem,a new weighted average combination rule is proposed.Defi-nitions of correlation coefficient was first presented,followed by the introduction of falsity.Then the credibility of evi-dence is proposed.A new weighted coefficient is determined by credibility and falsity.To achieve convergence,the nor-malized weighted coefficient was suggested into the Dempster's combination rule to average the basic probability as-signment.Comparable numerical examples demonstrate that the proposed approach can combine conflicting evidences more effectively.Moreover,the proposed methodology can provide a faster identification of the observed object.…”

Bidirectional RNN-based private car trajectory reconstruction algorithm by Zhu XIAO, Xin QIAN, Hongbo JIANG, Chenglin CAI, Fanzi ZENG

“…To address the problem that in the complex urban environment, due to the inevitable interruption of GNSS positioning signal and the accumulation of errors during vehicle driving, the collected vehicle trajectory data was likely to be inaccurate and incomplete.a bidirectional weighted trajectory reconstruction algorithm was proposed based on RNN neural network.The GNSS-OBD trajectory acquisition device was used to collect vehicle trajectory information, and multi-source data fusion was adopted to achieve bidirectional weighted trajectory reconstruction.Furthermore, the neural arithmetic logic unit (NALU) was leveraged with the purpose of enhancing the extrapolation ability of deep network and ensuring the accuracy of trajectory reconstruction.For the evaluation, real-world experiments were conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed method in comparison with existing methods.The root mean square error (RMSE) indicator shows the algorithm accuracy and the reconstructed trajectory is visually displayed through Google Earth.Experimental results validate the effectiveness and reliability of the proposed algorithm.…”

Software-defined protocol independent parser based on FPGA by Lixin MIAO, Qinrang LIU, Xin WANG

“…With the boom of information technology,heterogeneous networks with various functions emerge in endlessly,heterogeneous fusion network has become the inevitable trend of the development of the next generation network.To realize communication between heterogeneous networks,network forwarding equipment is essential.Traditional forwarding devices only support fixed protocol configuration and lack scalability,so they cannot support new network protocols.In view of this situation,a software defined protocol independent parser based on FPGA was proposed.The software defined the parsing process,giving the parser flexible and programmable features.It can analyze multiple protocol packets and extract key information needed for protocol conversion without changing hardware devices.The parser through a high-performance FPGA platform were implemented and hardware resource overhead and performance were evaluated.Experimental results show that it can complete the fast parsing of various heterogeneous network protocols and obtain complete analytical data.…”

A load balanced and energy efficient underwater clustering protocol for UWSN by Xinbin LI, Mengling GAO, Lei YAN

“…Focused on the low energy efficiency and short lifetime of underwater wireless sensor network（UWSN）,a load balanced and energy efficient underwater clustering（LBEEUC）protocol for UWSN was proposed.For cluster head settings,due to the consideration of load balanced,the proportion of cluster heads based on experience-load was set.The area with high experience-load could obtain more cluster heads than other areas to process data forwarding.And then,for intra-cluster communication,some relay nodes were set to save energy of long range data transmission between cluster head and nodes.Relay nodes also could be used to eliminate redundant information by advance data fusion.Finally,for inter-cluster routing,Q-learning algorithm was used to implement optimal path planning based on the criterion of least energy consuming.The simulation results demonstrate that the LBEEUC protocol can efficiently improve the energy utilization,prolong the network lifetime and balance the energy consumption of the network.…”
