During the last two decades, content-based image retrieval (CBIR) has been widely studied. The limitations of low-level feature representation of images have been a thorny issue in image retrieval problems. In this pa...

Preselection is an important strategy to improve evolutionary algorithms’ performance by filtering out unpromising solutions before fitness evaluations. This paper introduces a pre-selection strategy based on an approximated Pareto domination relationship for multiobjective evolutionary optimization. For each objective, a binary relation between each pair of solutions is constructed based on the current population, and a binary classifier is built based on the binary relation pairs. In this way, an approximated Pareto domination relationship can be defined. When new trial solutions are generated, the approximated Pareto domination is used to select promising solutions, which shall be evaluated by the real objective functions. The new preselection is integrated into two algorithms. The experimental results on two benchmark test suites suggest that the algorithms with preselection outperform their original ones.

This paper considers the problem of globally stabilizing a chain of integrators with actuator saturation in finite time. The proposed method is adapted from an existing scheduled low gain approach by relaxing the range of the value of the low gain parameter. Due to the special structure of the considered system, the proposed feedback law not only results in finite-time stability but also is homogeneous in the whole state space. The homogeneity of the proposed feedback law allows its implementation through the discretization of a compact set of the state space and thus obviation from numerical difficulties in the existing scheduled low gain design. A numerical example is presented to validate our theoretical results and demonstrate that our approach achieves faster convergence than the existing methods.

This paper studies the secondary frequency control among non-synchronous AC areas interconnected by High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC). A distributed second order sliding mode control scheme is adopted to secondary frequency control of HVDC transmission systems to adjust the frequency of power grid to rated value, which solves the frequency disturbance caused by load power change of the DC power grid. And on this basis, the power generation in each region is reasonably distributed, so as to minimize the cost of power generation. Finally, the stability of the system is proved on an appropriate sliding manifold.

The traditional Pavlov associative memory circuit realizes the law of learning and forgetting in classical conditioned reflex. In addition, the law of generalization and differentiation also belongs to classical conditioned reflex, so the process of associative memory can be more effectively simulated by adding generalization and differentiation theory on the basis of traditional associative memory. In this paper, a memristor-based circuit is designed to implement generalization and differentiation based on Pavlov associative memory. The circuit can be applied to simple classification recognition. Based on the features of objects as input, the output of the circuit is used as the classification result to achieve the function of classification and recognition. Finally,the accuracy of classification recognition on the generalization and differentiation circuit proposed in this paper can be verified by the simulation results in PSPICE.

Semantic segmentation is a fundamental operation in scene analysis. In this paper, an effective multiscale network for 3D point cloud semantic segmentation was introduced. By using a multiscale local feature extraction module which composed of four feature extractors of different scales in parallel, the generalizability of network for complex structures is enhanced effectively. To adaptively learn important feature channels, an attention mechanism is designed. Combining multiple features through skip connection, the network can preferably assign the semantic label for every point by exploiting global and local features. Experiments on 3D dataset (S3DIS) verify that our network is able to learn local region features, and the results are superior or comparable to the state-of-the-art.
Non-local operation is widely explored to model the long-range dependencies. However, the redundant computation in this operation leads to a prohibitive complexity. In this paper, we present a Representative Graph (Re...

In many real-world machine learning applications, unlabeled samples are easy to obtain, but it is expensive and/or time-consuming to label them. Active learning is a common approach for reducing this data labeling effort. It optimally selects the best few samples to label, so that a better machine learning model can be trained from the same number of labeled samples. This paper considers active learning for regression (ALR) problems. Three essential criteria - informativeness, representativeness, and diversity - have been proposed for ALR. However, very few approaches in the literature have considered all three of them simultaneously. We propose three new ALR approaches, with different strategies for integrating the three criteria. Extensive experiments on 12 datasets in various domains demonstrated their effectiveness.
