Abstract: In view of the current situation that the traditional methane sensor technology is difficult to imple-ment the field detection and monitor on methane gas, a novel room-temperature SAW methane gas sensor coa-ted with cryptophane-A sensing interface is proposed by utilizing the supermolecular compound cryptophane-A’ s specific clathration to methane molecules. The sensor was composed of differential resonator-oscillators with excellent frequency stability, a supra-molecular CrypA coated along the acoustic propagation path, and a frequency acquisition module. The supramolecular CrypA was synthesized from vanillyl alcohol using a three-step method and deposited onto the surface of the sensing resonators via dropping method. Fast response and excellent repeatability were observed in gas sensing experiment, and the estimated detection limit and meas-ured sensitivity in gas dynamic range of 0 . 2% ~5% was evaluated as ~0 . 05 % and ~184 Hz/%, respec-tively. The measured results indicated the SAW sensor was promising for under-mine methane gas detection and monitor.

Abstract: In order to improve the super-resolution reconstruction quality of single image, an improved learning based super-resolution approach was proposed in this paper. To tackle the problem of low details of semi-coupled dictionary learning super-resolution algorithm, the paper presented learning strategy where detail constraint factor and semi-coupled dictionary learning were performed in turn. In reconstruction stage, detail constraint factor was designed by the gradient in both horizontal and vertical direction. Combined with semi-coupled dictionary learning, detail constraint factor was used to further improve the super-resolution reconstruction quality. In order to improve the contribution of detail constraint factor on preserving boundary information, the adaptive regular parameter was explored via the approximate Laplacian distribution of edge difference. Compared with the semi coupled dictionary learning super-resolution algorithm, the peak signal-to-noise ratio of this method was increased by 1.5% on average. Experiments demonstrated that the proposed method could achieve better reconstruction effect in both subjective and objective evaluation and improve the quality of super-resolution.

Abstract: Interactive evolutionary algorithms with user preference implicitly extracted from interactions of user are more powerful in alleviating user fatigue and improving the exploration in personalized search or recommendation. However, the uncertainties existing in user interactions and preferences have not been considered in the previous research, which will greatly impact the reliability of the extracted preference model, as well as the effective exploration of the evolution with that model. Therefore, an interactive genetic algorithm with probabilistic conditional preference networks (PCP-nets)is proposed , in which, the uncertainties are further figured out according to the interactions, and a PCP-net is designed to depict user preference model with higher accuracy by involving those uncertainties. First, the interaction time is adopted to mathematically describe the relationship between the interactions and user preference, and the reliability of the interaction time is further defined to reflect the interactive uncertainty.The preference function with evaluation uncertainty is established with the reliability of interaction time. Second, the preference weights on each interacted object are assigned on the basis of preference function and reliability. With these weights, the PCP-nets are designed and updated by involving the uncertainties into the preference model to improve the approximation. Third, a more accurate fitness function is delivered to assign fitness for the individuals. Last, the proposed algorithm is applied to a personalized book search and its superiority in exploration and feasibility is experimentally demonstrated.

Abstract: Moth-flame optimization algorithm (MFO) has some drawbacks in solving optimization problems, such as low precision and high possibility of being trapped in local optimum. A modified MFO algorithm based on chaotic initialization and Gaussian mutation is proposed. Firstly, the cube chaotic map is used to initialize the moth population, which makes the moth more evenly distributed in the search space. Then, Gaussian mutation is adopted to disturb a few poor individuals to enhance the ability of escaping the local optimum. Finally, Archimedes curve is introduced to expand the search scope and strength the exploration ability in the unknown field. A series of experiments are carried out on CEC14 test function set and 21 extensible Benchmark functions. Compared with standard moth-flame optimization algorithm, genetic algorithm, artificial bee colony algorithm, particle swarm algorithm, differential evolution algorithm, flower pollination algorithm, and butterfly optimization algorithm, the results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm is strengthened in obtaining solutions with better quality and convergence.

Abstract: Cliff and steep slope are important landscape elements of topographic map, and these elements play a very important role in the construction of the ecological environment and prevention of geological disasters, etc. However, it is unfavorable to observe and process data because of vegetation occlusion on cliff. In this paper, we present a cliff vegetation filtration method based on the principle of surface orthographic projection. Firstly, transform the original three dimensional point cloud of cliff to the spatial cartesian coordinate system, whose xy plane is the cliff face and z-axis is perpendicular to the direction of the cliff surface. Then the grid on the xy plane is divided to establish local grid Digital Terrain Model ( DTM) by fitting surface, and the vegeta-tion points can be extracted through setting a reasonable distance threshold. Finally, after inverse projection transformation, cliff rocky points preserved are mapped to the original spatial coordinate system. The experi-mental analysis using actual cliff point cloud data shows that the cliff point cloud vegetation filtering method based on the surface orthographic projection is feasible and effective.

Abstract: Impact effects on carbon emissions intensity by population, per capita GDP, and main types of energy in China were evaluated with the fixed effect model based on LSDV estimation with reasons of the results of Likelihood Ratio Test and Hausman Test. The traditional model of STIRPAT was improved by adding Carbon Emission Intensity and Energy Consumption Variables, which included consumptions of coal, coke, crude oil, gasoline, kerosene, diesel oil, fuel oil, and natural gas, except population and per capita GDP. The results show that consumptions of different types of energy have different impacts on carbon emissions intensity from 2004 to 2016 in China. Five variables of energy consumption, which were corresponding to coal, coke, gasoline, diesel oil, and natural gas, had played positive effects on carbon emission intensity from the data of China Statistical Yearbook and China Energy Statistical Yearbook of 200 5 to 201 7. Other variables of crude oil consumption, fuel oil consumption, and kerosene consumption took opposite impact on carbon emission intensity. Moreover, change of population had the most significant favorable influence on carbon emission intensity in all studied variables. Unfortunately, per capita GDP and coal consumption contributed to the increasing of carbon emission intensity in China in the studied period.

Abstract: In order for effective application of Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithm based on Decomposition(MOEA/D) in engineering optimization，normalization of the range of objective values is needed. A self-a-daptive s constrained Differential Evolution ( gDE) algorithm is proposed to obtain the minimum and maximumvalues of each objective on the Pareto Front ( PF). After normalization，MOEA/D can then be effectively ap-plied. In addition ,the self-adaptive s constraint method is combined with MOEA/D for constraint handling. Abenchmark problem and a weld bean design problem are used to evaluate the performance of the algorithm a-gainst two other normalization methods. One main advantage of the proposed method is the selective concen-trated optimization on some regions on the Pareto front which allows handling of problems where regions of Pa-reto front are difficult to be optimized.

Abstract: Commercial automayic guided vehicles (AGV) usually used chain transmission mechanism power transmission, and the fixed structure of the wheel could be considered as cantilever structure. Therefore, the problem of wheels "tilting" and start-stop "shocking" easily occurs, which limited the accurate movement of the AGV during frequent and rapid acceleration or deceleration. In this paper, AGV designed by a company was taken as an example. Though repeated tests and numerical simulations, the structure and force analysis were used to find out the reasons for this phenomeno. The larger stress was caused by the "L"-shaped suspension mechanism, which magnified the contact gaps of each component; the uses of the chain transmission mechanism could make it easy for the AGV to form gaps between the sprocket and the chain when the AGV started, stopped, moved forward, backward frequently. Then a new drive unit structure was put forward from the engineering point of view, which could solves the above problems, at the same time-greatly could reduced the stress in the mechanism, could improve the transmission precision, and could provide a more practical and optimized driving structure for the design of AGV.

Abstract: In order to solve the problems in studies of multimodal named entity recognition, such as the lack of text feature semantics, the lack of visual feature semantics, and the difficulty of graphic feature fusion, a series of multimodal named entity recognition methods were proposed. Firstly, the overall framework of multi modal named entity recognition methods and common technologies in each part were examined, and classified into BilSTM-based MNER method and Transformer based MNER method. Furthermore, according to the model structure, it was further divided into four model structures, including pre-fusion model, post-fusion model, Transformer single-task model and Transformer multi-task model. Then, experiments were carried out on two data sets of Twitter-2015 and Twitter2017 for these two types of methods respectively. The experimental results showed that multi-feature cooperative representation could enhance the semantics of each modal feature. In addition, multi-task learning could promote modal feature fusion or result fusion, so as to improve the accuracy of MNER. Finally, in the future research of MNER, it was suggested to focus on enhancing modal semantics through multi-feature cooperative representation, and promoting model feature fusion or result fusion by multi-task learning.

Abstract: In order for effective application of Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithm based on Decomposition(MOEA/D) in engineering optimization，normalization of the range of objective values is needed. A self-a-daptive s constrained Differential Evolution ( gDE) algorithm is proposed to obtain the minimum and maximumvalues of each objective on the Pareto Front ( PF). After normalization，MOEA/D can then be effectively ap-plied. In addition ,the self-adaptive s constraint method is combined with MOEA/D for constraint handling. Abenchmark problem and a weld bean design problem are used to evaluate the performance of the algorithm a-gainst two other normalization methods. One main advantage of the proposed method is the selective concen-trated optimization on some regions on the Pareto front which allows handling of problems where regions of Pa-reto front are difficult to be optimized.

Abstract: To address the difficulties of slow convergence and difficulty in finding feasible solutions when solving large-scale constrained multi-objective optimization problems, an adaptive two-stage large-scale constrained multiobjective evolutionary algorithm was proposed. In the first stage, the algorithm adaptively selected some variables for optimization according to the nature of the decision variables, without considering any constraint to make the population quickly cross the infeasible region and approach the unconstrained Pareto front. In the second stage, the algorithm considered all the constraints and optimizes the variables as a whole using the ε constraint-handling technique. At the same time, the feasible and non-dominated solutions obtained in the evolutionary process were saved and updated using archive to continuously improve the convergence and diversity of the population. Finally, the proposed algorithm was experimentally compared with the other six algorithms on 37 test functions, and the results showed that the proposed algorithm could achieved the best results on 25 functions and outperforms the comparison algorithm on at least 31 functions, respectively; meanwhile, the feasibility rate of the proposed algorithm in more than 90% of the functions could reach 100%, which could effectively solve large-scale constrained multi-objective optimization problems.

Abstract: In the human-computer interaction system based on fingertip, the position of fingertip center is very important. By solving the multi-objective optimization model for the fingertip localization, several fingertip center positions can be obtained. The fingertip pixels distribute around the fingertip centers, so the optimal solution components of this optimization model have the above distribution law. Using the estimation of distribution algorithm with the distribution law to solve this optimization model, can obtain accurate results. This paper discusses the estimation of distribution algorithm for the fingertip localization. It proposes that the decision variable dimension, population size, maximum sampling variance, and minimum sampling variance are the main parameters of this estimation of distribution algorithm. The experimental results show that each main parameter has its best value; when their values are their best values, the fingertip center positions obtained by the proposed method excel the results of the existing methods.

Abstract: The dissolved gas content in transformer oil is an important index to measure the operation status of transformers. The differential autoregressive moving average model (ARIMA) is used to predict the gas content in transformer oil. This method uses the time corresponding to the gas content value as an index to input the prediction model through python programming. The original non-stationary time series is converted into a stationary time series by means of difference processing, and then several sets of models are obtained by using the autocorrelation function and partial autocorrelation function parameter selection principles, and are used in the process of optimizing several sets of models. A set of optimal models were obtained by Chichi information, Bayesian information, and Hannan-Quine criteria. Finally, the residuals of the optimal models were tested by correlation testing methods, and the gas content was predicted using the models that met the residual requirements. Experiments show that the proposed prediction method has high prediction accuracy, which can provide a valuable reference for rationally arranging the condition-based maintenance of transformers.

Abstract: Based on the cooling characteristics of the electric vehicle drive motor, a novel cooling structure the circumferential multi spiral structure, was proposed. The three dimensional numerical model of fluid flow and heat transfer in the shell was established. The flow field and temperature field of different water cooling schemes were calculated based on CFD technology.

Abstract: As the key equipment of tunneling a roadway, controlling the anchor-hole drills mainly depends on the operator’s experience. Improper rotary speed of an anchor-hole drill generally results in sticking or breaking pipes, which reduces the drilling efficiency. Especially, the nonlinearities and time-varying parameters, as well as the disturbances resulted from various factors in the anchor-hole drill rotary system shall be taken into consideration. A novel optimal active-disturbance-rejection controller is proposed in the paper. The set value of the rotary speed is dynamically estimated in terms of the geological condition of surrounding rocks. Brain storm optimization algorithm is employed to find the optimal parameters of the controller, which have the best dynamic and steady control performances. Based on the simulation platform composed of AMESim and Matlab, the experimental results for a single surrounding rock with or without the external disturbance show that the proposed ADRC controller has better dynamic and steady performances and stronger robustness than the optimal PID controller.

Abstract: In multimodal multi-objective optimization problem, the same position of Pareto front often corresponded to multiple Pareto optimal solutions in decision space. However, the existing multi-objective optimization algorithms could only obtain one of the Pareto optimal solutions. Therefore, in this paper, a two-stage search multimodal multi-objective differential evolution algorithm was proposed, which divided the optimization process into two stages: elite search and partition search. In the elite search stage, elite mutation strategy was used to generate high-quality individuals to ensure the search accuracy and efficiency of the population. In the stage of partition search, the decision space was divided into several subspaces, and the detected population was used to explore each subspace in depth, so as to reduce the complexity of the problem and to improve the expansion and uniformity of the population in the decision space. The performance of the algorithm was compared with five classical algorithms NSGAII、MO_Ring_PSO_SCD、DN-NSGAII、Omni-Optimizer、MMODE on 18 multimodal and multi-objective optimization test functions, such as MMF1. Experimental results showed that there were 16 test functions in the performance index of Pareto approximation (PSP) of the proposed algorithm, which were better than the other five comparison algorithms.

Abstract: Interactive evolutionary algorithms with user preference implicitly extracted from interactions of user are more powerful in alleviating user fatigue and improving the exploration in personalized search or recommendation. However, the uncertainties existing in user interactions and preferences have not been considered in the previous research, which will greatly impact the reliability of the extracted preference model, as well as the effective exploration of the evolution with that model. Therefore, an interactive genetic algorithm with probabilistic conditional preference networks (PCP-nets)is proposed , in which, the uncertainties are further figured out according to the interactions, and a PCP-net is designed to depict user preference model with higher accuracy by involving those uncertainties. First, the interaction time is adopted to mathematically describe the relationship between the interactions and user preference, and the reliability of the interaction time is further defined to reflect the interactive uncertainty.The preference function with evaluation uncertainty is established with the reliability of interaction time. Second, the preference weights on each interacted object are assigned on the basis of preference function and reliability. With these weights, the PCP-nets are designed and updated by involving the uncertainties into the preference model to improve the approximation. Third, a more accurate fitness function is delivered to assign fitness for the individuals. Last, the proposed algorithm is applied to a personalized book search and its superiority in exploration and feasibility is experimentally demonstrated.

Differential Scanning Calorimetry, Polarizing Microscope, Atomic Force Microscopy, Confocal Laser Scanning Microscope and Nano Indentation Tester were used to list the surface morpholigy of PLA stereocomplex crystal and the diversification of mechanical properties. The result showed  that a high degree of stereo-tacticity of PLLA/PDLA blend could be achieved from the mass ratio of 1/1 for sample.The research also showed that obviously depression phenomenon on the surface of crystal was formed due to the contraction of the molecular chain. Furthermore, the hardness and modulus of crystalline region were improved compared to the amorphous region.

Abstract: During heating process of sintering furnace,the model parameters were easy to change,and traditional PID control was difficult to achieve the desired control effect.This paper used particle swarm optimization algorithm to identify the mathematical model of sintering furnace,for sintering furnace with high inertia,time-variation and strong time delay etc,a method of supervision and control based on RBF neural network,which combined PID control with neural network control.When temperature or parameters changed greatly,PID control played a major role.neural network played a regulatory role and compensated the shortage of PID control.The simulation results of MATLAB software showed that this method could improve the control precision of sintering furnace,which had a certain practicality.
