In interplanetary trajectory optimization, events such as planetary gravitational-assist maneuvers (swingbys) and deep-space maneuvers can be added/removed from the trajectory plan to reduce the cost or the flight time. This renders the number of design variables in the optimization problem variable. Global optimization methods that optimize this type of multimodal objective function can only handle problems with a fixed number of design variables. This paper presents the structured-chromosome evolutionary algorithm framework that is developed to handle variable-size design space optimization problems. In this framework, a solution (chromosome) is represented by a hierarchical data structure where the genes in the chromosome are classified as dependent and nondependent genes. This structure provides the capability to apply genetic operations between solutions of different lengths, and thus to automatically determine the number of swingbys, the planets to swingby, launch and arrival dates, and the number of deep-space maneuvers, as well as their locations, magnitudes, and directions, in an optimal sense. This new method is applied to several interplanetary trajectory design problems. Results show that solutions obtained using this tool match known solutions for some complex problems. A comparison between genetic algorithms and differential evolution in the structured-chromosome framework is presented.

This paper presents a novel unsupervised iterative blood vessel segmentation algorithm using fundus images. First, a vessel enhanced image is generated by tophat reconstruction of the negative green plane image. An initial estimate of the segmented vasculature is extracted by global thresholding the vessel enhanced image. Next, new vessel pixels are identified iteratively by adaptive thresholding of the residual image generated by masking out the existing segmented vessel estimate from the vessel enhanced image. The new vessel pixels are, then, region grown into the existing vessel, thereby resulting in an iterative enhancement of the segmented vessel structure. As the iterations progress, the number of false edge pixels identified as new vessel pixels increases compared to the number of actual vessel pixels. A key contribution of this paper is a novel stopping criterion that terminates the iterative process leading to higher vessel segmentation accuracy. This iterative algorithm is robust to the rate of new vessel pixel addition since it achieves 93.2-95.35% vessel segmentation accuracy with 0.9577-0.9638 area under ROC curve (AUC) on abnormal retinal images from the STARE dataset. The proposed algorithm is computationally efficient and consistent in vessel segmentation performance for retinal images with variations due to pathology, uneven illumination, pigmentation, and fields of view since it achieves a vessel segmentation accuracy of about 95% in an average time of 2.45, 3.95, and 8 s on images from three public datasets DRIVE, STARE, and CHASE_DB1, respectively. Additionally, the proposed algorithm has more than 90% segmentation accuracy for segmenting peripapillary blood vessels in the images from the DRIVE and CHASE_DB1 datasets.

Analysis and design of linear periodic control systems are closely related to the discrete-time periodic matrix equations. In this paper, we propose an iterative algorithm based on the conjugate gradient method on the normal equations (CGNE) for finding the solution group of the general coupled periodic matrix equations {A(1), (i) X-i B-1,B- i + C-1,C- i Xi+1D1, i = E-1,E- i, A(2, i) X-i B-2,B- i + C-2,C- i Xi+1D2, i = E-2,E- i, for i = 1, 2, 3, ... By proving some properties of the algorithm, we show that the solution group of the periodic matrix equations can be obtained within a finite number of iterations in the absence of roundoff errors. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed algorithm.

We propose a fast iterative algorithm for optimal finite impulse response (OFIR) filtering of linear discrete time-invariant state-space models in white Gaussian noise. The OFIR filter is known to have the BIBO stability and better robustness against the Kalman filter (KF). The iterative OFIR algorithm is KF-like;that is, its estimate appears much faster than in the batch OFIR filter. A dramatic reduction of computation time is demonstrated in the full-horizon iterative OFIR algorithm which operates as fast as KF. We also notice a considerable reduction of the computational resources allowed by iterations.

详细信息
A joint power splitting and beamforming design for multiuser multiple-input single-output (MISO) systems where receivers have capability of decoding information and harvesting energy simultaneously from received signals is considered. The objective is to maximize the ratio of the achieved utility to the total power consumption subject to harvested power requirements and power budget at a base station (BS). The utility function of interest combines the sum rate and the total harvested power. The design problem is nonconvex, and thus, global optimality is difficult to achieve. To solve this problem locally we first convert the problem into a more tractable form, and then propose an iterative algorithm which is guaranteed to achieve a Karush-Kuhn-Tucker solution. Numerical results are provided to demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed method.

Magnetic particle imaging (MPI) is a medical imaging technology suitable for noninvasive diagnostics. However, in conventional image reconstruction methods, due to either noise or the reconstruction method itself, the reconstructed image quality degrades. In order to suppress this problem, we improved the time-correlation MPI method that we had previously proposed. Specifically, this method iteratively corrects image blurring by reducing the difference between the observed signals from magnetic nanoparticles and the analytically calculated waveforms for the reconstructed image generated with the time-correlation method. Using numerical simulation, we evaluate the effectiveness of this method in conjunction with the continuous scan technique, which makes fast data acquisition possible.

In this paper, we develop an itarative algorithm to solve for a one-dimensional nonlinear pseudoparabolic equation in the reproducing space. It is proved that the approximate sequence μ_n(x, t) converges to the exact solution μ(x, t), and it is the best approximation under a complete normal orthogonal system.

In this paper, we introduce a concept of graph convergence for the H(., .)-co-accretive mapping in Banach spaces and prove an equivalence theorem between graph convergence and resolvent operator convergence for the H(., .)-co-accretive mapping. Further, we consider a system of generalized variational inclusions involving H(., .)-co-accretive mapping in real q-uniformly smooth Banach spaces. Using resolvent operator technique, we prove the existence and uniqueness of solution and suggest an iterative algorithm for the system of generalized variational inclusions under some suitable conditions. Further, we discuss the convergence of iterative algorithm using the concept of graph convergence. Our results can be viewed as a refinement and generalization of some known results in the literature.

A decoupling capacitors (decaps) selection algorithm based on maximum anti-resonance points of the power distribution network and the quality factor (Q) of the capacitor is proposed. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is superior to the fast algorithm regarding the number of consuming decaps and the genetic algorithm regarding the time consumed.
