This paper presents two methods for self-adapting the semantic sensitivities in a recently proposed semantics-based crossover: Semantic Similarity based Crossover (SSC). The first self-adaptation method is inspired by a self-adaptive method for controlling mutation step size in Evolutionary Strategies (1/5 rule). The design of the second takes into account more of our previous experimental observations, that SSC works well only when a certain portion of events successfully exchange semantically similar subtrees. These two proposed methods are then tested on a number of real-valued symbolic regression problems, their performance being compared with SSC using predetermined sensitivities and with standard crossover. The results confirm the benefits of the second self-adaption method.

Forecasting exchange rate is one of the most important research topics in financial time series field. In this paper, the author combine fuzzy time series model with fuzzy clustering method to predict the USD/CHY exchange rate. The empirical results show that this method can obviously obtain higher forecasting precision than some traditional ones.

The efficient markets hypothesis (EMH) maintains that market prices fully reflect all available information such as public or private information. Therefore, the study of analyzing the reaction of stock price to the information has attracted more and more attention. Here we proposed an effective measuring method using fuzzy c-means (FCM) for describing the reaction to public information, and further analyzing and quantifying the intensity. Taking the deposit reserve rate, a kind of typical public information, as an example, the clustering results show that there are there prominent characters of reaction in Shanghai A-share market. Furthermore, the empirical results indicate that the clustering technique has a good effect in classifying the intensity of reaction of stock market to public information.

In this paper we propose three techniques to improve the performance of one of the major algorithms for large scale continuous global function optimization. Multilevel Cooperative Co-evolution (MLCC) is based on a Cooperative Co-evolutionary framework and employs a technique called random grouping in order to group interacting variables in one subcomponent. It also uses another technique called adaptive weighting for co-adaptation of subcomponents. We prove that the probability of grouping interacting variables in one subcomponent using random grouping drops significantly as the number of interacting variables increases. This calls for more frequent random grouping of variables. We show how to increase the frequency of random grouping without increasing the number of fitness evaluations. We also show that adaptive weighting is ineffective and in most cases fails to improve the quality of found solution, and hence wastes considerable amount of CPU time by extra evaluations of objective function. Finally we propose a new technique for self-adaptation of the subcomponent sizes in CC. We demonstrate how a substantial improvement can be gained by applying these three techniques.

Spatial Grid provides a well solution to effective sharing of geographically dispersed spatial data. Various distributed spatial task processing like query can be achieved upon it. To support task allocation in Spatial Grid, effective and reliable spatial grid catalogue should be developed since it provides resource distribution information. This paper proposes a novel relation model based spatial grid catalogue. Design and implementation details for constructing our proposed spatial grid catalogue are discussed. Practical experiments also reveal the relation model based spatial grid catalogue can effectively discover appropriate grid resources and help make better spatial task allocation.

Distributed wireless sensor networks have been proposed as a solution to environment sensing, target tracking, data collection and others. Energy efficiency, high estimation accuracy, and fast convergence are important goals in distributed estimation algorithms for WSN. This paper studies the problem of robust adaptive estimation in impulsive noise environment using robust cost function like Wilcox on norm and error saturation nonlinearity. The incremental cooperative scheme conventionally used in sensor network in which each node have local computing ability and share them with their predefined neighbors, is not robust to impulsive type of noise or outliers. In this paper the robust norm is introduced in incremental cooperative distributed network to estimate the desired parameters in presence of Gaussian contaminated impulsive noise.

Emergency evacuation in public places becomes a research focus in recent decades. One major objective of evacuation is to maximize the efficiency of the whole evacuation system. The paper proposes a multiobjective evacuation route assignment model to plan an optimal egress route set for the individual evacuees. The three objectives in the proposed model are to minimize the total evacuation time, minimize the total travel distance of all the evacuees and minimize the congestion during the evacuation process. These objectives need to be satisfied simultaneously while some of them conflict with each other. The travel speed on each road segment is related with the time and the number of evacuees on it during a certain time period. The congestion of a road segment is modeled as the density of evacuees passing it in time and space dimensions. The evacuation route assignment problem can be treated as a combinatorial optimization problem. A multiobjective optimization model based genetic algorithm is adopted to solve the proposed evacuation routing problem. Wuhan Sport Center in Wuhan city of China was taken as the experiment scenario to test the performance of the proposed algorithm. The results showed that it can provide some system optimal evacuation plans. Meanwhile, the multi-objective optimization model based genetic algorithm can produce a pareto optimal set rather than single optimal point, thus the model can give alternative strategies for the evacuation policy makers.
