Based on the concept and principles of quantum computing and the principle of the immune clonal selection, a new algorithm for multi-objective 0/1 knapsack problems is introduced. In the algorithm, for the novel representation, qubit antibodies in the antibody population are updated by applying a new chaos update strategy. A quantitative metric is used for testing the convergence to the Pareto-optimal front. Simulation results on the 0/1 knapsack problems show that the new algorithm, in most cases, is more effective.

In this paper, the DVRT(vector radiative transfer theory of densely distributed random discrete scatters) model to calculate the brightness temperature emitted by radiometer calibration load is presented. It takes the multiple scattering of isolation layer into account, which is neglected by the incoherent homogeneous model often used in calibration. Hence, it works much better than incoherent homogeneous model at millimeter wave band. Furthermore, the iteration of DVRT model is presented, and it proves that the incoherent homogeneous model is just the zero-order solution of DVRT model. Some numerical results are provided in the end.

In safety-critical systems such as transportation aircraft, redundancy of actuators is introduced to improve fault tolerance. How to make the best use of remaining actuators to allow the system to continue achieving a desired operation in the presence of some actuators failures is the main subject of this paper. Considering that many dynamical systems, including flight dynamics of a transportation aircraft, can be expressed as an input affine nonlinear system, a new state repre- sentation is adopted here where the output dynamics are related with virtual inputs associated with the intended operation. This representation, as well as the distribution matrix associated with the effectiveness of the remaining operational actuators, allows us to define different levels of fault tol- erant governability with respect to actuators' failures. Then, a two-stage control approach is devel- oped, leading frst to the inversion of the output dynamics to get nominal values for the virtual inputs and then to the solution of a linear quadratic (LQ) problem to compute the solicitation of each operational actuator. The proposed approach is applied to the control of a transportation air- craft which performs a stabilized roll maneuver while a partial failure appears. Two fault scenarios are considered and the resulting performance of the proposed approach is displayed and discussed.

Inspired by the clonal selection theory together with the immune network model, we present a new artificial immune algorithm named the immune memory clonai algorithm (IMCA). The clonal operator,inspired by the immune system, is discussed first. The IMCA includes two versions based on different immune memory mechanisms; they are the adaptive immune memory clonal algorithm (AIMCA) and the immune memory clonal strategy (IMCS). In the AIMCA, the mutation rate and memory unit size of each antibody is adjusted dynamically. The IMCS realizes the evolution of both the antibody population and the memory unit at the same time. By using the clonal selection operator, global searching is effectively combined with local *** to the antibody-antibody (Ab-Ab) affinity and the antibody-antigen (Ab-Ag) affinity, The IMCA can adaptively allocate the scale of the memory units and the antibody population. In the experiments, 18 multimodal functions ranging in dimensionality from two, to one thousand and combinatorial optimization problems such as the traveling salesman and knapsack problems (KPs)are used to validate the performance of the IMCA. The computational cost per iteration is presented. Experimental results show that the IMCA has a high convergence speed and a strong ability in enhancing the diversity of the population and avoiding premature convergence to some degree. Theoretical roof is provided that the IMCA is convergent with probability 1.

This paper proposes a global stereo correspondence using robust matching likelihoods and minimum spanning tree (MST) leveraged smooth priors in a probabilistic graphical model framework. The matching likelihoods of the stereo correspondence can be robustly constructed as data term by aggregating initial matching costs from Weber local descriptors using an unsymmetrical guided filtering in a linear model. The disparity priors are devised as smooth term to characterize the smoothness constraints leveraged by the MST structure. The presented stereo approach provides an effective and efficient way to reflect robust visual dissimilarity and resolve local and regional discontinuities. Experiments demonstrate that the proposed global stereo matching method can produce piecewise smooth, accurate and dense disparity map, while removing effectively the visual ambiguity of the stereo matching problem.

The memristor, as the fourth basic circuit element, has drawn worldwide attention since its physical implementation was released by HP Labs in 2008. However, at the nano-scale, there are many difficulties for memristor physical realization. So a better understanding and analysis of a good model will help us to study the characteristics of a memristor. In this paper, we analyze a possible mechanism for the switching behavior of a memristor with a Pt/TiO2/Pt structure, and explain the changes of electronic barrier at the interface of Pt/TiO2. Then, a quantitative analysis about each parameter in the exponential model of memristor is conducted based on the calculation results. The analysis results are validated by simulation results. The efforts made in this paper will provide researchers with theoretical guidance on choosing appropriate values for(α, β, χ, γ) in this exponential model.
