We use a simple iterative algorithm for two quasi-nonexpansive mappings to approximate their common fixed point through Delta-convergence and strong convergence of the algorithm. Our results are new in the literature of metrical fixed point theory and are also valid in CAT(0) spaces.

A framework to extend Luenberger observer to nonlinear systems is proposed. The theory of invariant manifolds plays a central role in the framework. It is shown that the invariant manifolds for observer design are often non-standard ones and this makes their computations challenging. The proposed theory successfully removes the condition imposed on the system to be observed in the previous research in nonlinear Luenberger observer. Numerical examples show that the design methods proposed produce more effective observers compared with linear observers.

In this paper, an iterative algorithm to solve a special class of Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman-Isaacs (HJBI) equations is proposed. By constructing two series of nonnegative functions, we replace the problem of solving an HJBI equation by the problem of solving a sequence of Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equations whose solutions can be approximated recursively by existing methods. The local convergence of the algorithm is guaranteed. A numerical example is provided to demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed algorithm.

New requirements of autonomous mobile vehicles necessitate hierarchical motion-planning techniques that not only find a plan to satisfy high-level specifications, but also guarantee that this plan is suitable for execution under vehicle dynamical constraints. In this context, the H-cost motion planning technique has been reported in the recent literature. We propose an incremental motion-planning algorithm based on this technique. The proposed algorithm retains the benefits of the original technique, while significantly reducing the associated computational time. In particular, the proposed iterative algorithm presents during intermediate iterations feasible solutions, with the guarantee that the algorithm eventually converges to an optimal solution. The costs of solutions at intermediate iterations are almost always nonincreasing. Therefore, the proposed algorithm is suitable for real-time implementations, where hard bounds on the available computation time are imposed, and where the original H-cost optimization algorithm may not have sufficient time to converge to a solution at all. We illustrate the proposed algorithm with numerical simulation examples.

Multiple sequence alignment (MSA) is an essential cornerstone in bioinformatics, which can reveal the potential information in biological sequences, such as function, evolution and structure. MSA is widely used in many bioinformatics scenarios, such as phylogenetic analysis, protein analysis and genomic analysis. However, MSA faces new challenges with the gradual increase in sequence scale and the increasing demand for alignment accuracy. Therefore, developing an efficient and accurate strategy for MSA has become one of the research hotspots in bioinformatics. In this work, we mainly summarize the algorithms for MSA and its applications in bioinformatics. To provide a structured and clear perspective, we systematically introduce MSA's knowledge, including background, database, metric and benchmark. Besides, we list the most common applications of MSA in the field of bioinformatics, including database searching, phylogenetic analysis, genomic analysis, metagenomic analysis and protein analysis. Furthermore, we categorize and analyze classical and state-of-the-art algorithms, divided into progressive alignment, iterative algorithm, heuristics, machine learning and divide-and-conquer. Moreover, we also discuss the challenges and opportunities of MSA in bioinformatics. Our work provides a comprehensive survey of MSA applications and their relevant algorithms. It could bring valuable insights for researchers to contribute their knowledge to MSA and relevant studies.

This article designs waveform in fast-time domain to optimise high-frequency radar performances embedded in the co-channel interference and coloured noise. Considering the whitening filter is applied for fast-time processing, a novel objective function accounting for both signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) and integrated range sidelobe level (IRSL) is introduced and the constant modulus constraint is forced on the probing waveform. An iterative algorithm based on the alternating direction method of multipliers is presented, resolving such non-convex quartic optimisation problem with a polynomial-time computational complexity. In each iteration, two quadratic problems are presented, with the closed-form solutions given. Finally, the authors evaluate the effectiveness of the designed waveform in terms of the range-Doppler processing result, SINR, IRSL and power spectrum.

Dramatic variations in natural light conditions can cause complex stomatal conductance responses in plant leaves but are often overlooked in current models of stomatal conductance, impeding our understanding of the internal mechanisms governing stomatal conductance (gsw) in plant leaves. Experimentally determined dynamic response patterns of gsw to various light conditions in Mangifera indica L. (Mango). The results also indicated that photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD), the proportion of blue light (PB), vapor pressure deficit (VPD), and leaf type (Ltype) had significant effects on gsw, resulting in the popular stomatal conductance models (Jarvis, BallWoodrow-Berry (BWB), Ball-Berry-Leuning (BBL), and Unified Stomatal Optimization (USO)) having different degrees of overestimation or underestimation under varying light conditions. We have further integrated the influence of potential variables into the Jarvis, BWB, BBL, and USO models and analyzed their impact on gsw, resulting in an increase of 0.08-0.36 in R2 and 0.032-1.08 in RPD. Among the models, the improved USO model incorporating the constraints from PPFD and Ltype, exhibited the highest performance (R2 = 0.85, RPD = 2.55). Therefore, for accurate estimation of gsw, the model should take into account the light conditions and the difference between sunlit and shaded areas, especially in natural environments where light conditions change frequently.

In this paper, a joint precoding and decoding design scheme is proposed for two-way Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) multiple-relay system. The precoding and decoding matrices are jointly optimized based on Minimum Mean-Square-Error (MMSE) criteria under transmit power constraints. The optimization problem is solved by using a convergent iterative algorithm which in-cludes four sub-problems. It is shown that due to the difficulty of the block diagonal nature of the relay precoding matrix, sub-problem two cannot be solved with existing methods. It is then solved by converting sub-problem two into a convex optimization problem and a simplified method is proposed to reduce the computational complexity. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme can achieve lower Bit Error Rate (BER) and larger sum rate than other schemes. Furthermore, the BER and the sum rate performance can be improved by increasing the number of antennas for the same number of relays or increasing the number of relays for the same number of antennas.

A novel optimal tracking control method for a class of discrete-time systems with actuator saturation and unknown dynamics is proposed in this paper. The scheme is based on the iterative adaptive dynamic programming (ADP) algorithm. In order to implement the control scheme, a data-based identifier is first constructed for the unknown system dynamics. By introducing the M network, the explicit formula of the steady control is achieved. In order to eliminate the effect of the actuator saturation, a nonquadratic performance functional is presented, and then an iterative ADP algorithm is established to achieve the optimal tracking control solution with convergence analysis. For implementing the optimal control method, neural networks are used to establish the data-based identifier, compute the performance index functional, approximate the optimal control policy and solve the steady control, respectively. Simulation example is provided to verify the effectiveness of the presented optimal tracking control scheme.
