Membrane algorithms are a new class of heuristic algorithms, which attempt to incorporate some components of membrane computing models (also called P systems) for designing efficient optimization algorithms, such as the structure of P systems, the way of communication between cells, etc. Membrane algorithms are a kind of parallel methods, where many operations can be performed in parallel. Although the importance of the parallelism of such algorithms is recognized, membrane algorithms were often implemented on the serial computing device Central processing Unit (CPU), which makes the algorithms cannot work in a more efficient way. In this work, we consider the implementation of membrane algorithms on the parallel computing device Graphics processing Unit (GPU). Under such implementation, all cells of membrane algorithms can work simultaneously. Experiment results on two classical intractable problems, point set matching problem and TSP, show that GPU implementation of membrane algorithms is much more efficient than CPU implementation in terms of runtime, especially for solving the problems with a high complexity.

A faster numerical method based on FDTD for the four energy level atomic system is present here. The initial conditions for the electrons of each level are achieving while the fields are in steady state. Polarization equation, rate equations of electronic population and Maxwell's equations were used to describe the coupling between the atoms and electromagnetic wave. Numerical simulations, based on a finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method, were utilized to obtain the population inversion and lasing threshold. The validity of the model and its theory is confirmed. The time, which we can observe the lasing phenomenon, is much shorter in our new model. Our model can be put into using in large scale simulations in mutiphysics to reduce the total simulated time.

In this paper, we propose a novel model of three points named TP for location estimation in wireless sensor networks(WSNs) with random deployment of anchor nodes. In this model, we select three anchor nodes which have the strongest received signal strength(RSS) for location estimation, the centroid algorithm and the method of intersection of judgment are used to estimate the location of unknown nodes. To further exploit three nearest intersection points in TP, the enhanced TP(ETP) is proposed. The simulation results show that the proposed models outperform MMSE and BML in terms of the localization accuracy for WSNs. Moreover, the localization accuracy of the proposed models in scenario 2 with random deployment of anchor nodes are better than in scenario 1 with planned deployment of anchor nodes. Additionally, compared with MMSE and BML, ETP and TP can reduce the environmental impact on location estimation.

Nitrogen is a key factor for plant photosynthesis, ecosystem productivity and leaf respiration. Under the condition of nitrogen deficiency, the crop shows the nitrogen deficiency symptoms in the bottom leaves, while excessive nitrogen will affect the upper layer leaves first. Thus, timely measurement of vertical distribution of foliage nitrogen content is critical for growth diagnosis, crop management and reducing environmental impact. This study presents a method using bi-directional reflectance difference function (BRDF) data to invert foliage nitrogen vertical distribution. We developed upper-layer nitrogen inversion index (ULNI), middle-layer nitrogen inversion index (MLNI) and bottom-layer nitrogen inversion index (BLNI) to reflect foliage nitrogen inversion at upper layer, middle layer and bottom layer, respectively. Both ULNI and MLNI were made by the value of the ratio of Modified Chlorophyll Absorption Ration Index to the second Modified Triangular Vegetation Index (MCARI/MTVI2) referred to as canopy nitrogen inversion index (CNII) in this study at ±40° and ±50°, and at ±30° and ±40° view angles, respectively. The BLNI was composed by the value of nitrogen reflectance index (NRI) at ±20° and ±30° view angles. These results suggest that it is feasible to measure foliage nitrogen vertical-layer distribution in a large scale by remote sensing.

This study aims at characterizing wheat canopies caused by powdery mildew (Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici) with multi-angular hyperspectral data. The filling stage (23 May, 2012) was chosen to achieve such a goal, considering that the disease can show distinctive symptoms during the months of May and June. A total of 37 sample plots were selected including 32 normal canopies and 5 diseased canopies with varied severity. To minimizing the soil background influences, multi-angular hyperspectral data were acquired at different view angles (0°, 45° and 90°). The results showed that the proportion of wheat vegetation and soil changed greatly and the hyperspectral reflectance values correspondingly changed. Consequently, the reflectance at different viewing angles showed great differences, but the curves had the same change trends. The results showed that, to accurately identify the spectral differences caused by powdery mildew, the optimal angle or a combination of several angles must be firstly found from multi-angular hyperspectral measurements.

Herein, a new identity recognition method of plantar pressure image (PPI) was investigated based on compressed sensing. During the process of identity recognition, the PPIs were collected with platform system in normal walking speed. The sparse representation of PPI was then obtained according to the sparse basis (i.e., wavelet basis). Finally, measurement vectors were calculated by the Topelitz measurement matrix and the PPI was recognized by compressed sensing classifier. The results showed that the accuracy of identity recognition of PPI based on compressed sensing exceeded 97.76%, demonstrating the effectiveness and stability of the Topelitz-compressed sensing algorithm. Meanwhile, the method used in this study reduced the data storage amount and increased the real-time recognition during the PPI process.
