Given that real-world classification tasks always have irrelevant or noisy features which degrade both prediction accuracy and computational efficiency, feature selection is an effective data reduction technique showing promising performance. This paper presents a cooperative coevolution framework to make the feature selection process embedded into the classification model construction within the genetic-based machine learning paradigm. The proposed approach utilizes the divide-and-conquer strategy to manage two populations in parallel, corresponding to the selected feature subsets and the rule sets of classifier respectively, in which a memetic feature selection algorithm is adopted to evolve the feature subset population while a Pittsburgh-style learning classifier system is used to carry out the classifier evolution. These two coevolving populations cooperate with each other regarding the fitness evaluation and the final solution is obtained via collaborations between the best individuals from each population. Empirical results on several benchmark data sets chosen from the UCI repository, together with a non-parametric statistical test, validate that the proposed approach is able to deliver classifiers of better prediction accuracy and higher stability with fewer selected features, compared with the original learning classifier system. In addition, the incorporated feature selection process is shown to help improve the computational efficiency as well.

Either of air data system (ADS) and strapdown inertial navigation system (SINS) can be used to get the measurement of angle of attack and sideslip, but with deficiency respectively. By use of complementary filter, the low-bandwidth measurement getting from ADS and high-bandwidth information getting from SINS could be fused to obtain the angle of attack and sideslip. Integrating the error between estimates and ADS measurement will compensate the constant bias of gyro. The dynamical characteristic of the filter is ensured by the IMU's high quality because the high-frequency part of information from SINS is preserved. The theoretical analysis and simulation result indicate that the angle of attack/sideslip can be obtained with high bandwidth and low noise through the method proposed.

The Transport Control Protocol (TCP) has been widely used by wired and wireless Internet applications such as FTP, email and HTTP. Numerous congestion algorithms have been proposed to improve the performance of TCP in various scenarios, especially for high bandwidth-delay product (BDP) and wireless networks. Although different algorithms may achieve different performance improvements under different network conditions, designing a congestion algorithm that performs well across a wide spectrum of network conditions remains a great challenge. In this paper, we propose a novel congestion control algorithm, named TCP-FIT, which could perform gracefully in both wireless and high BDP networks. The algorithm was inspired by parallel TCP, but with the important distinctions that only one TCP connection with one congestion window is established for each TCP session, and that no modifications to other layers (e.g. the application layer) of the end-to-end system need to be made. Extensive experimental results obtained using both network simulators as well as over “live” wired line, WiFi and 3G networks at different geographical locations and at different times of the day are presented. The performance of the algorithm shown in the experiment results is significantly improved as compared to other state-of-the-art algorithms, while maintaining good fairness.

In the training process of HMM-based speech synthesis systems, the states of the HMM models are clustered based on the context features labeled on the training corpus.A good feature set would enable the synthesis system to generate natural prosody. In this paper, in order to synthesize interrogative intonation, we analyzed the acoustic features of the interrogative intonation and the context features that are related to the interrogative intonation in Chinese. We then expanded the feature set used conventional HMM-based speech synthesis system with interrogative intonation related features. A new speech synthesis system is trained with the proposed feature set. The analysis of train and synthesis results show that the proposed feature set is able to discriminate declarative and interrogative intonations. Perception listening test also shows the synthesis system using the expanded feature set can generate interrogative intonation.

This paper investigates the adaptive Kriging controller for the longitudinal dynamics of a generic hypersonic flight vehicle (HFV). For the altitude subsystem, the dynamics are transformed into the strict-feedback form where the back-stepping scheme is employed. Considering the nonlinearity of the dynamics, the nominal feedback is included in the controller while Kriging system is designed to estimate the uncertainty. With the proposed controller, the almost surely bounded stability is guaranteed. The simulation study is presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed control approach.
