Recovery mechanism of large-scale damaged edge computing network in industrial Internet of things by Hui TIAN, Hao WU, Yang TIAN, Jianyang REN, Yajuan CUI, Wenbao AI, Jianhua YUAN

“…Given the limited resources at early stages for recovery, a failure recovery mechanism of the edge computing network considering both computational demands and repair costs was proposed, which intends to tackle the problem of the high probability of large-scale cascading failure caused by the interdependence between the edge computing network and other subnetworks in industrial Internet of things (IIoT).Considering the network structure (topology and link capacity) and network dynamics (computational demands), a joint link recovery selection and computation migration optimization problem was formulated under the conservation of node computing requirements.By leveraging the Benders decomposition algorithm, the NP-hard problem was transformed into a main problem and a sub-problem, which were interdependent and could be solved in polynomial time through the approximation of cutting planes.A local branching method was further introduced to guarantee the non-increasing nature of the Benders upper bound, thus accelerating the convergence of Benders decomposition.Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm outperforms the conventional topology-based recovery algorithm in system utility, and can perform well in multiple scenarios.…”

An Integrative Approach to Accurate Vehicle Logo Detection by Hao Pan, Bailing Zhang

“…An RoI that covers logos is segmented based on our prior knowledge about the logos’ position relative to license plates, which can be accurately localized from frontal vehicle images. A two-stage cascade classier proceeds with the segmented RoI, using a hybrid of Gentle Adaboost and Support Vector Machine (SVM), resulting in precise logo positioning. …”

Multiple Functions of Phosphoinositide-3 Kinase Enhancer (PIKE) by Chi Bun Chan, Keqiang Ye

“…In neurons, PIKE is involved in the protective mechanisms against neuroexcitotoxic insults by linking various receptors, such as mGluR1 and Unc5H2, to the PI3K cascade. Interestingly, the PIKE gene (CENTG1) is also amplified in a variety of human cancers and enhances Akt activity, leading to their resistance against apoptosis and invasion. …”

Statistics of Finite Scale Local Lyapunov Exponents in Fully Developed Homogeneous Isotropic Turbulence by Nicola de Divitiis

“…This link, which in turn leads to the closure of von Kármán–Howarth and Corrsin equations, agrees with results of previous works, supporting the proposed PDF calculation, at least for the purposes of the energy cascade main effect estimation. Furthermore, through the property that the Lyapunov vectors tend to align the direction of the maximum growth rate of trajectories distance, we obtain the link between maximum and average Lyapunov exponents in line with the previous results. …”
