Bat algorithm (BA) is a novel intelligent optimization algorithm. In order to improve the poor local search capability of the algorithm, we present a new variant of bat optimization algorithm based on local centroid strategy (LCBA). Meanwhile, LEACH is a low energy adaptive clustering hierarchy algorithm for wireless sensor networks (WSN). And it has many disadvantages such as random selection of cluster head, taking no account of the remaining energy and position of nodes. To solve these problems, this paper proposes an improved LEACH protocol based on local centroid bat algorithm. The improved protocol divides the cluster head selection process into optimization of temporary cluster head and formal cluster head selection. First, we generate temporary cluster heads by traditional LEACH protocol, then optimize these cluster heads based on LCBA and select formal cluster heads according to the remaining energy of nodes. The result of experiment shows that, comparing with LEACH, LEACH-LCBA can balance the network load efficiently, improve the energy utilization, prolong the network lifetime.

In order to extract representative local invariant regions in textured natural images, we propose a Color-Contrast-MSER (CCM) detector with color-contrast pixel ranking, which can reduce the number of meaningless regions extracted from backgrounds. The main contributions are threefold: (1) In contrast with the original MSER[3] which adopts intensity pixel ranking, we develop a new pixel ranking mechanism based on color contrast analysis. (2) In this paper, the pixel ranking value of each pixel is defined as the color contrast between a kernel-sized window and the background. Therefore we propose an adaptive background scale selection mechanism that simulates the background color distribution as the benchmark for color contrast. (3) The experimental results demonstrate that compared with the original MSER detector[3], our Color-Contrast-MSER (CCM) detector can extract more representative local regions with competitive repeatability score at only 50% computational time and 10% memory cost.

Previous models in syntax-based statistical machine translation usually resort to some kinds of synchronous procedures, few of these works are based on the analysis-transfer-generation methodology. In this paper, we present a statistical implementation of the analysis-transfergeneration methodology in rule-based translation. The procedures of syntax analysis, syntax transfer and language generation are modeled independently in order to break the synchronous constraint, resorting to dependency structures with dependency edges as atomic manipulating units. Large-scale experiments on Chinese to English translation show that our model exhibits state-of-the-art performance by significantly outperforming the phrase-based model. The statistical transfer-generation method results in significantly better performance with much smaller models.

Most of the widely-used automatic evaluation metrics consider only the local fragments of the references and translations, and they ignore the evaluation on the syntax level. Current syntaxbased evaluation metrics try to introduce syntax information but suffer from the poor parsing results of the noisy machine translations. To alleviate this problem, we propose a novel dependency-based evaluation metric which only employs the dependency information of the references. We use two kinds of reference dependency structures: headword chain to capture the long distance dependency information, and fixed and floating structures to capture the local continuous ngram. Experiment results show that our metric achieves higher correlations with human judgments than BLEU, TER and HWCM on WMT 2012 and WMT 2013. By introducing extra linguistic resources and tuning parameters, the new metric gets the state-of-the-art performance which is better than METEOR and SEMPOS on system level, and is comparable with METEOR on sentence level on WMT 2012 and WMT 2013.
