In this paper, we consider minimum cost lossless source coding for multiple multicast sessions. Each session comprises a set of correlated sources whose information is demanded by a set of sink nodes. We propose a distributed end-to-end algorithm which operates over given multicast trees, and a back-pressure algorithm which optimizes routing and coding over the whole network. Unlike other existing algorithms, the source rates need not be centrally coordinated;the sinks control transmission rates across the sources. With random network coding, the proposed approach yields completely distributed and optimal algorithms for intra-session network coding. We prove the convergence of our proposed algorithms. Some practical considerations are also discussed. Experimental results are provided to complement our theoretical analysis.

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have gained special attention in recent years, among others in monitoring and inspection applications. We used UAV to analyze the characteristics of the slopes of Hanning Expressway and designed different aerial photography solutions. Compared with manual inspection, the work efficiency increased by 43.5%. Then, we selected the suspicious damage points as the collection points for the second inspection, and introduced the adjacency matrix to describe the situation between the collection points. We used the ant colony algorithm, simulated annealing algorithm and genetic algorithm to solve the shortest path. The results showed that the simulated annealing algorithm was the optimal algorithm.

Time aggregation based optimal control model is proposed in the paper, by using Lebesgue sampling technique. Time aggregation approach in MDP (Markov Decision Processes) theory is applied to handle the problem, then policy iteration can be implemented. Both analytical solution and sample path based optimization algorithms are given. Compared with periodic sampling based approach, Lebesgue sampling based approach can be applied to practical control systems to obtain improvement in system performance and reduction in resource utilization.

This paper considers the problem of evaluating robust control invariant (RCI) sets for linear discrete-time systems subject to state and input constraints as well as additive disturbances. An RCI set has the property that if the system state is inside the set at any one time, then it is guaranteed to remain in the set for all future times using a predefined state feedback control law. This problem is important in many control applications. We present a numerically efficient algorithm for the computation of full-complexity polytopic RCI sets. Farkas' Theorem is first used to derive necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of an admissible polytopic RCI set in the form of nonlinear matrix inequalities. An Elimination Lemma is then used to derive sufficient conditions, in the form of linear matrix inequalities, for the existence of the solution. An optimization algorithm to approximate maximal RCI sets is also proposed. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

In this paper, new planar spiral antennas for passive RFID tag application at UHF band are designed and optimized using the Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm. The optimization goals are antenna size minimization, gain maximization and conjugate matching. The antenna dimensions were optimized and evaluated using ABC in conjunction with commercial EM software. Furthermore, a theoretical analysis of the spiral antennas was performed. The input impedance of the printed spiral, was calculated approximately via the Transmission Line Model and the electromotive force induced along the spirals. The theoretical results seem to be in good agreement with the EM solver results. The optimization results produced show that ABC is a powerful optimization algorithm that can be efficiently applied to tag antenna design problems. RFID tags with dimensions less than 4cm, gain that reaches the value of 2 dBi and read distance about 11.7m were among those obtained by the algorithm.

A new Kalman filter based signal estimation concept for active vehicle suspension control is presented in this paper considering the nonlinear damper characteristic of a vehicle suspension setup. The application of a multi-objective genetic optimization algorithm for the tuning of the estimator shows that three parallel Kalman filters enhance the estimation performance for the variables of interest (states, dynamic wheel load and road profile). The Kalman filter structure is validated in simulations and on a testrig for an active suspension configuration using measurements of real road profiles as disturbance input. The advantages of the concept are its low computational effort compared to Extended or Unscented Kalman filters and its good estimation accuracy despite the presence of nonlinearities in the suspension setup.
When training neural networks with custom objectives, such as ranking losses and shortest-path losses, a common problem is that they are, per se, non-differentiable. A popular approach is to continuously relax the obj...

The goal of this paper is to derive a small perturbation analysis for networks subject to random changes of a small number of edges. Small perturbation theory allows us to derive, albeit approximate, closed form expressions that make possible the theoretical statistical characterization of the network topology changes. The analysis is instrumental to formulate a graph-based optimization algorithm, which is robust against edge failures. In particular, we focus on the optimal allocation of the overall transmit powers in wireless communication networks subject to fading, aimed at minimizing the variation of the network connectivity, subject to a constraint on the overall power necessary to maintain network connectivity.
