We present a novel computational framework for density control in high-dimensional state spaces. The considered dynamical system consists of a large number of indistinguishable agents whose behaviors can be collectively modeled as a time-evolving probability distribution. The goal is to steer the agents without collision from an initial distribution to reach (or approximate) a given target distribution within a fixed time horizon at minimum cost. To tackle this problem, we propose to model the drift as a nonlinear reduced-order model, such as a deep network, and enforce the matching to the target distribution at terminal time either strictly or approximately using the Wasserstein metric. The resulting saddle-point problem can be solved by an effective numerical algorithm that leverages the excellent representation power of deep networks and fast automatic differentiation for this challenging high-dimensional control problem. A variety of numerical experiments were conducted to demonstrate the performance of our method.

Smart manufacturing is a holistic strategy for product optimization in manufacturing with minimum costs and improved operational efficiency. However, the implementation of smart manufacturing technologies in small and medium enterprises (SMEs) is limited due to a lack of awareness and understanding of their potential benefits. The manuscript aims to propose a hybrid picture fuzzy information (PFI)-based decision support tool and its application in dealing with the smart manufacturing technologies assessment problem for SMEs. The proposed method firstly computes the decision experts’ weights using a picture fuzzy distance measure and rank sum model. In the following, a modified distance measure is introduced for PFI and presents its effectiveness over the existing ones. Next, the individual experts’ views are combined into group decisions using picture fuzzy Sugeno-Weber-weighted geometric (PFSWWG) operators. To this aim, new PFSWWG operators are developed for PFI with their desirable characteristics. Further, a collective weighting procedure is developed by combining the objective weight with the symmetry point of criteria (SPC) model and subjective weight via the picture fuzzy ranking comparison (RANCOM) method. Based on these procedures, we present a hybrid combinative distance-based assessment (CODAS) approach for solving multi-criteria group decision-making (MCGDM) problems with PFI. Moreover, the CODAS model is executed as a case study of smart manufacturing technologies evaluation problems for SMEs, which exemplifies its practicality and feasibility. Sensitivity assessment is accomplished to test the steadiness and reliability of the attained outcomes. Lastly, the comparison is made to validate the robustness and effectiveness of the proposed methodology. The findings show that the presented methodology can offer a practical way to solve smart manufacturing selection problems with uncertain data.

This paper investigates a distinct numerical algorithm for the solution of first and second orders initial value problems. The new method was developed using interpolation and collocation approach, with power series approximate solution used as interpolating polynomials. The numerical integrators of the block were obtained by evaluating the non-interpolation points within the chosen integration interval. To assess the efficiency of the proposed block method, it was tested on some first and second orders ordinary differential equations with initial value problems, and the results produced outperformed existing methods in terms of accuracy.

In this paper we study the connection between graph filters, graph neural networks (GNNs) and manifold filters, manifold neural networks (MNNs), Specifically, we consider the case when we have access to a set of uniformly sampled points from the manifold based on which we construct a relatively sparse graph to approximate the manifold, which is a suitable model for many real world applications. We prove a non-asymptotic approximation error bound or convergence rate for the graph filters and the GNNs on the relatively sparse graphs to the filters and neural networks on the manifold that the graphs are sampled from. An interesting trade-off between the convergence and the discriminability of the graph filters can be observed from the non-asymptotic error bound which indicates that graph filters cannot give good convergence and discriminability at the same time. While the nonlinearity function in GNNs can alleviate this trade-off and allows the GNNs to both converge to the MNNs and discriminate well. Equipped with this non-asymptotic error bound, we further interpret the transferability property of GNNs when the graphs are sampled from a common manifold. We verify our conclusions with a point-cloud classification problem.
