Nowadays, probe vehicles equipped with Global Position system (GPS) are an effective way of collecting real-time traffic information. This paper first briefly introduces the Curve-Fitting Estimation Model (CFEM), which is one of the typical methods using GPS data to estimate the traffic flow state. After that, it is detailedly analyzed how many probe vehicles the CFEM requires in order to ensure enough estimated accuracy. Furthermore, a sample size algorithm is developed to calculate the minimum sample size of the CFEM. In the algorithm, the road type, the length of road section, and sample frequency are taken into account. Finally, the proposed algorithm of sample size analysis are tested by the experiments using the data collected from the road network of the whole center region of Shanghai.

Saturation characteristic exists widely in the real system, and a large number of articles have taken constraint conditions into account during the controller design process. However, relative to the research on the input (actuator) saturation, study on the output (sensor) saturation has not been taken seriously and research results are very little, especially in the aspect of effect on the identification due to the saturation output. In this paper, under the data-driven controlsystem based on online subspace identification and model predictive control (MPC) method, the relationship among the output saturation step, prediction horizon and subspace matrix is obtained, while the change of the system information is unknown because the output signals are locked. Finally, a simulation example is given to demonstrate the correction of the conclusion.

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.

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.

This paper presents a generic video vehicle detection approach through multiple background-based features and statistical learning. The main idea is to configure several virtual loops (as detection zones) on the image, assuming moving vehicles may cause pixel intensities and local texture to change, and then by identifying such pixel changes to detect vehicles. In this research, multiple pattern classifiers including LDA + Adaboost, SVM, and Random Forests are used to detect vehicles that are passing through virtual loops. We extract fourteen pattern features (related to foreground area, texture change, and luminance and contrast in the local virtual loop zone and the global image) to train pattern classifiers and then detect vehicles. As experimental results illustrate, the proposed approach is quite robust to detect vehicles under complex dynamic environments, and thus is able to improve the accuracy of traffic data collection in all weather for long term.

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 process information. 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.

With the economic developments, high speed railway has been paid many attentions in China and medium- short term planning of Chinese high speed railway network has been formed and most of the railways have been started into operations. In this paper, graph theory and complex network theory are adopted to assess the reliability of Chinese high speed railway network. The topological characteristics and real distances between pairs of stations are discussed to investigate the reliability of Chinese high-speed rail network. Several parameters are presented to investigate the topological characteristics and the reliability and robustness of the network subject to failures. The parameter called unit degree betweenness is proposed to assess the transport capacity of lines connecting with the nodes. The largest degree node-based attacks and the highest betweenness node-based attacks are involved into Chinese high speed railway network to assess the topological reliability and robustness. The results show that the highest betweenness node-based attacks are more effective to destroy the network than the largest degree node-based attacks. Moreover, the cumulative degree distribution and the real mileages of railways between pairs of stations can be fitted by Gauss functions, and the distribution of real shortest distances over all pairs of stations of the network is fitted by a normal distribution function. By the simulations, the critical stations, Guangzhou Station, Zhengzhou Station and Jinan Station for the largest degree node-based attacks, and Wuhan Station, Xuzhou Station and Shijiazhuang Station for the highest betweenness node-based attacks, can be obtained in this paper.

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.

This paper presents a new adaptive controller for visual tracking control of a robot manipulator in 3D general motion with a fixed camera whose intrinsic and extrinsic parameters are uncalibrated. In addition to camera parameters, the feature positions in 3D space are also assumed unknown. Based on the fact that the unknown parameters appears linearly in the closed-loop dynamics of the system if the depth-independent interaction matrix is adopted to map the image errors onto the joint space of the manipulator, we developed a new adaptive algorithm to estimated the unknown parameters on-line. With a full consideration of dynamic responses of the robot manipulator, we employ the Lyapunov method to prove asymptotic convergence of the image errors. Experimental results are used to demonstrate the performance of the proposed approach.
