For the purpose of realization of ash deposition monitoring and optimal operation of sootblowing, taking the economizer as the research object and the cleanliness factor as the measurement of the degree of pollution of heating surface, based on the principle of heat balance, a model of heating surface ash deposition was being established. The model considered the impact of changing conditions, and added radiation heat transfer as sub-module. Finally, with offline data to calculate the model, it is verified that the model is reasonable.

Deblurring camera-based document image is an important task in digital document processing, since it can improve both the accuracy of optical character recognition systems and the visual quality of document images. Traditional deblurring algorithms have been proposed to work for natural-scene images. However the natural-scene images are not consistent with document images. In this paper, the distinct characteristics of document images are investigated. We propose a content-aware prior for document image deblurring. It is based on document image foreground segmentation. Besides, an upper-bound constraint combined with total variation based method is proposed to suppress the rings in the deblurred image. Comparing with the traditional general purpose deblurring methods, the proposed deblurring algorithm can produce more pleasing results on document images. Encouraging experimental results demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed method.

A novel data-driven process monitoring method based on dynamic independent component analysis-principle component analysis (DICA-DPCA) is proposed to compensate for shortcomings in the conventional component analysis based monitoring methods. The primary idea is to first augment the measured data matrix to take the process dynamic into account. Then perform independent component analysis (ICA) and principle component analysis (PCA) on the augmented data to capture both the non-Gaussian and Gaussian processinformation. Finally, a combined monitoring statistic is proposed by support vector data description (SVDD) with its control limit being determined by bootstrap quantile estimation method to lessen monitoring work-load. The Tennessee Eastman process is used to demonstrate the improved monitoring performance of the proposed mechanism in comparison with existing component analysis based monitoring methods, including PCA, ICA, ICA-PCA, dynamic PCA, and dynamic ICA.

In this paper, we consider the problem that a group of agents aims to compute the average of individually estimated noisy parameters by sharing information among a random network of digital links. In this scenario, the average consensus seeking is involved in a two-step procedure. First, each agent estimates the local time-varying parameters individually, and then agents average their estimations by interaction with neighbors through quantized communication. Impact of quantization on the performance of the proposed distributed algorithm is investigated. We prove that the agents' states converge to a random variable that deviates from the average of the estimated parameters. We derive an upper bound for the asymptotic residual mean square error of the states, which captures effects of the quantization precision and the structure of the random communication networks.
Recursive partial least squares (RPLS) regression is effectively used in process monitoring and modeling to deal with the stronger collinearity of the process variables and slow time-varying property of industrial pro...

Differential Evolution (DE) is a simple and efficient numerical optimization method. Most DE variants in the literature adopt fixed population size. This paper incorporates into DE the mechanisms of lifetime and extinction which regulate DE's population size in an adaptive manner. The population size is adjusted according to the online progress of fitness improvement. Two schemes of inserting new individuals are proposed to match different mechanisms respectively. The performance of these innovations is examined through the optimization of benchmark problems. The results show that the proposed adaptive population sizing strategy is efficient for improving the convergence and efficiency of the DE.

A neural based PID feedback control method for networked processcontrolsystems is presented. As there are some uncertain factors such as external disturbance, randomly delayed measurements or control demands in real networked processcontrolsystems, the proposed PID controller is implemented by backpropagation neural networks whose weights are updated via minimizing tracking error entropy of closed loop systems. To demonstrate the potential applications of the proposed strategy, an example of a simulated batch reactor is provided. The proposed design method is shown to be useful and effective in dealing with network processcontrolsystems.

Understanding the synchronization process of self-propelled objects is of great interest in science and technology. We propose a synchronization model for a self-propelled objects system in which we restrict the maximal angle change of each object to θR. At each time step, each object moves and changes its direction according to the average direction of all of its neighbors (including itself). If the angle change is greater than a cutoff angle θR, the change is replaced by θR. We find that (i) counterintuitively, the synchronization improves significantly when θR decreases, (ii) there exists a critical restricted angle θRc at which the synchronization order parameter changes from a large value to a small value, and (iii) for each noise amplitude η, the synchronization as a function of θR shows a maximum value, indicating the existence of an optimal θR that yields the best synchronization for every η.

Radial basis function (RBF) network is one of the significant neural networks. It has been used successfully in various fields. But in RBF network approximation algorithm, the initial value of the network weights, Gauss function center vector and broad-based vector is not easy to determine, and when these parameter choice is undeserved, RBF network approximation precision will decline and even the serious consequences of network spread will be produced. By using genetic algorithm in this paper, which can better realize RBF network parameter optimization, thereby increasing the accuracy of approximation. Scilab is open source software and has good simulation capabilities. Experiments using Scilab shows that the optimization method of genetic neural network is feasible and results are satisfied.
