Using Particle Swarm Optimization to handle complex functions with high-dimension it has the problems of low convergence speed and sensitivity to local convergence. The convergence of particle swarm algorithm is studied from the dynamic system theory, and the condition for the convergence of particle swarm algorithm is given. The analysis provided qualitative guidelines for the general algorithm parameter selection. Results of numerical tests show the efficiency of the results.

Location algorithm is an essential supporting technique of wireless sensor networks (WSNs), and centroid location algorithm is one of the important methods to locate low power WSNs nodes. In this paper, It is analyzed the principle of centroid location algorithm and the influence of beacon nodes on location precision, and proposed beacons in increasing-ring (BIR) location algorithm. The algorithm firstly estimated the beacons nodes closed to unkown nodes, found beacons nodes that are distributed as impartial as possible, and regarded them as centroid location. 20 times of simulation experiments were carried with 1000 nodes that are distributed randomly in an area of 1000×1000 by centroid location algorithm and BIR algorithm methods. The location error near the center of the experimental area is smaller than marginal area, and the precision of beacon nodes in concentrated area is more precise, the average location error has been reduced by 32.72%, and the number of unknown nodes that are required by BIR algorithm decreased by 84.61% than that of centroid location algorithm. When the beacon nodes take up to 30%, communication radius with more than 180 has less influence on the location error of BIR algorithm. When the communication radius is 200, and the number of beacon nodes is more than 250, BIR algorithm can have a good effect. Therefore, the performance of the new algorithm is better than that of the centroid location algorithm.

Previous metric learning approaches learn a unified metric for all the classes on single feature representation, thus cannot be directly transplanted to applications involving multiple features, hundreds to thousands of hierarchical structured semantics and abundant social tagging. In this paper, we propose a novel multi-task multi-feature metric learning method which models the information sharing mechanism among different learning tasks. We decompose the real world multi-class problems such as semantic categorization or automatic tagging into a set of tasks where each task corresponds to several classes with strong visual correlation. We conduct metric learning to learn a set of (hyper)category-specific metrics for all the tasks. By encouraging model sharing among tasks, more generalization power is acquired. Another advantage is the capability of simultaneous learning with semantic information and social tagging based on the multi-task learning framework, and thus they both benefit from the information provided by each other. Experiments demonstrate the advantages on applications including semantic categorization and automatic tagging compared with other popular metric learning approaches.

Target detection and field surveillance are among the most prominent applications of wireless sensor networks. The quality of detection achieved by a sensor network can be quantified by evaluating the probability of detecting a mobile target crossing a sensing field. Detection probability of sensor nodes has been studied in sensor networks for many purposes such as quality of service and decision making. However, the sensing capabilities of sensors are affected by environmental factors in real deployment. This paper investigates the problem of detecting probability in a log-normal shadow fading environment. It presents an analytic method to evaluate the detection probability by at least k sensors under practical considerations. Furthermore, we also shows that shadow fading makes significant influence in detection probability compared to unit disk sensing model through extensive simulation experiments.

Contextual question answering (CQA), in which user information needs are satisfied through an interactive question answering (QA) dialog, has recently attracted more research attention. One challenge is to fuse contextual information into the understanding process of relevant questions. In this paper, a discourse structure is proposed to maintain semantic information, and approaches for recognition of relevancy type and fusion of contextual information according to relevancy type are proposed. The system is evaluated on real contextual QA data. The results show that better performance is achieved than a baseline system and almost the same performance as when these contextual phenomena are resolved manually. A detailed evaluation analysis is presented.
