A new algorithm named as M-elitist Evolutionary Algorithm (MEA) is presented with low complexity and high performance to approach the performance of Maximum-Likelihood(ML) detection, for solving the problem of the high complexity of ML detection in real-time Vertical- Bell laboratories LAyered Space-Time (V-BLAST) communication system. The simulation of one knapsack problem validates the effectiveness of MEA to solve combinatorial optimization problems. Furthermore, the simulation of V-BLAST communication system shows that the MEA-based detection algorithm can approach the performance of ML well, and is superior to the detection algorithm based on standard genetic algorithm and that based on clonal selection algorithm as well as some classical ones.

Among the techniques to solve the knowledge bottleneck problem of supervised learning models, active learning is a promising method. One of the popular techniques of active learning is uncertainty sampling which, however, often presents problems when outliers are selected. To solve this problem, this paper presents a density-based re-ranking technique, in which a density measure is adopted to determine whether an unlabeled example is an outlier. The motivation of this method is to use not only the most informative example in terms of uncertainty measure, but also the most representative example in terms of density measure. The second effort we made is that a technique of sampling by clustering (SBC) is presented to build a representative initial training data set for active learning. Experimental results of active learning for word sense disambiguation and text classification tasks show that the proposed techniques can improve active learning with uncertainty sampling.

Intramuscular connective tissue (IMCT) has made significant effects on meat tenderness; those effects were executed by the characteristics changes of endomysial and perimysial collagen. The review presents the progress of structural and composition properties of connective tissue as well as contents, solubility and crosslinking of collagen, moreover, the effects of characteristics changes of connective tissue and collagen on meat tenderness and textural properties during postmortem ageing were analyzed and the role of connective tissue in meat tenderization were discussed.

An adaptive fusion method of multisensor images based on nonsubsampled contourlet transform is proposed in this paper, which can select the fusion weights of the low-frequency coefficients adaptively via golden section algorithm. The nonsubsampled contourlet transform is a flexible multi-scale, multi-direction and shift-invariant image decomposition, which is suitable for representing images bearing abundant detail and directional information. This is employed for fusing the directional high-frequency coefficients. For the directional high-frequency coefficients, the higher adding level of the directional subbands is used to select the better coefficient for fusion. The nonsubsampled contourlet transform can also avoids introducing ringing artifacts to fused images compared to ordinary method. Experimental results show that the proposed method achieves better fusion efficiency compared to image fusion methods based on Laplacian pyramid transform, wavelet transform, stationary wavelet transform and contourlet transform respectively.

This paper introduced a novel high performance algorithm and VLSI architectures for achieving bit plane coding (BPC) in word level sequential and parallel mode. The proposed BPC algorithm adopts the techniques of coding pass prediction and parallel & pipeline to reduce the number of accessing memory and to increase the ability of concurrently processing of the system, where all the coefficient bits of a code block could be coded by only one scan. A new parallel bit plane architecture (PA) was proposed to achieve word-level sequential coding. Moreover, an efficient high-speed architecture (HA) was presented to achieve multi-word parallel coding. Compared to the state of the art, the proposed PA could reduce the hardware cost more efficiently, though the throughput retains one coefficient coded per clock. While the proposed HA could perform coding for 4 coefficients belonging to a stripe column at one intra-clock cycle, so that coding for an NxN code-block could be completed in approximate N2/4 intra-clock cycles. Theoretical analysis and experimental results demonstrate that the proposed designs have high throughput rate with good performance in terms of speedup to cost, which can be good alternatives for low power applications.

Based on the mechanisms of immunodominance and clonal selection theory, we propose a new multiobjective optimization algorithm, immune dominance clonal multiobjective algorithm (IDCMA). IDCMA is unique in that its fitness values of current dominated individuals are assigned as the values of a custom distance measure, termed as Ab-Ab affinity, between the dominated individuals and one of the nondominated individuals found so far. According to the values of Ab-Ab affinity, all dominated individuals (antibodies) are divided into two kinds, subdominant antibodies and cryptic antibodies. Moreover, local search only applies to the subdominant antibodies, while the cryptic antibodies are redundant and have no function during local search, but they can become subdominant (active) antibodies during the subsequent evolution. Furthermore, a new immune operation, clonal proliferation is provided to enhance local search. Using the clonal proliferation operation, IDCMA reproduces individuals and selects their improved maturated progenies after local search, so single individuals can exploit their surrounding space effectively and the newcomers yield a broader exploration of the search space. The performance comparison of IDCMA with MISA, NSGA-Ⅱ, SPEA, PAES, NSGA, VEGA, NPGA, and HLGA in solving six well-known multiobjective function optimization problems and nine multiobjective 0/1 knapsack problems shows that IDCMA has a good performance in converging to approximate Pareto-optimal fronts with a good distribution.
