This paper considers the distributed quadratic stabilization problems of uncertain continuous-time linear multiagent systems with undirected communication topologies. It is assumed that the agents have identical nominal dynamics while subject to different norm-bounded parameter uncertainties, leading to weakly heterogeneous multi-agent systems. A distributed controller is proposed, based on the relative states of neighboring agents and a subset of absolute states of the agents. It is shown that the distributed quadratic stabilization problem under such a controller is equivalent to the H∞ control problems of a set of decoupled linear systems having the same dimensions as a single agent. A two-step algorithm is presented to construct the distributed robust controller, which does not involve any conservatism and meanwhile decouples the feedback gain design from the communication topology. Furthermore, the distributed quadratic H∞ control problem of uncertain linear multi-agent systems with external disturbances is discussed, which can be reduced to the scaled H∞ control problems of a set of independent systems whose dimensions are equal to that of a single agent.

“Voting with feet” describes the prominent social phenomenon that people tend to move away from deteriorating neighborhoods and search for and join prosperous groups. To quantify the role this kind of expectation-driven migration plays in the evolution of cooperation, here we study a simple yet effective model of cooperation based on spatial public goods games. The population structure is characterized by a square lattice with some nodes being left empty. Individuals have expectations toward their current habitats. Dissatisfied players, whose expectation is not met after interacting with all directly connected neighbors, tend to abstain from the groups of low quality by moving away and explore the physical niches of avail. How fast interaction happens relatively to selection is regulated by the time-scale ratio of game interaction to natural selection. Under strong selection, simulation results show that cooperation is greatly improved for either low, moderate, or high expectations compared to whenever the expectation-driven migration is absent. Further explorations reveal that neither too high nor too low but rather a combination of moderate expectations and rapid interaction establishes cooperation for a moderate public goods enhancement factor. There exists an optimal interval of expectation level most favoring the evolution of cooperation as the required time-scale ratio is minimized.

With the rapid development of the Internet and E-commerce, online shopping sites are becoming a popular platform for products selling. Shopping sites such as ***, *** provide consumers with a hierarchical navigation for selecting products easily from overwhelming amount of products. However, those man-made navigations are so general and professional that consumers still need to spend much time in filtering out their own undesired products personally. Shopping sites provide abundant textual product descriptions for most products, which describes the details of the product. In this paper, we propose a novel model to build a topic hierarchy from the detailed product descriptions, which can automatically model words into a tree structure by hierarchical Latent Dirichlet Allocation (hLDA), besides, our model can also augment words level allocations with the conceptual relation between words in WordNet automatically. Each node in the hierarchical tree contains some relevant keywords of product descriptions, thus clarifying the meaning of the concept in the node. Therefore, consumers can pick out their interested products by using the discovered descriptive and valuable navigation of products. The experimental results on ***, one of the most popular shopping sites in America, demonstrate the efficiency and effectiveness of our proposed model.

Simulation of plant structure competing for light source has mostly been done by directly modifying plant structure according to light interception. Functional-structural plant models, however, emphasize the influence of light interception on biomass production, and consequently plant structure. In this paper, we integrate a light distribution model with GreenLab model, which used Beer-Law in computing biomass production. By replacing Beer-Law with a light interception model for biomass production, the combined model was able to simulate the effect of light condition on plant structure through source-sink regulation. The positive and negative sides of this approach are discussed.

This paper aims to integrate the fuzzy control with adaptive dynamic programming (ADP) scheme, to provide an optimized fuzzy control performance, together with faster convergence of ADP for the help of the fuzzy prior knowledge. ADP usually consists of two neural networks, one is the Actor as the controller, the other is the Critic as the performance evaluator. A fuzzy controller applied in many fields can be used instead as the Actor to speed up the learning convergence, because of its simplicity and prior information on fuzzy membership and rules. The parameters of the fuzzy rules are learned by ADP scheme to approach optimal control performance. The feature of fuzzy controller makes the system steady and robust to system states and uncertainties. Simulations on under-actuated systems, a cart-pole plant and a pendubot plant, are implemented. It is verified that the proposed scheme is capable of balancing under-actuated systems and has a wider control zone.

The main purpose of this paper is to make table tennis robots complete the hit table tennis ball action by imitating human’s behavior. The main strategy is to record a video of action which people played the table tennis, then analysis the video of the racket trajectory. The racket in the image is extracted by image processing when the each frame is captured in the video. Then three-dimensional coordinates of the center of the racket and racket posture are obtained via PnP positioning approach based on the intrinsic parameters of the camera. The table tennis robot will off-line learn to complete the imitation of basic actions of the racket trajectory and postures. A large number of experimental data is used to establish basic actions of table tennis robot.

Opinion mining has gained increasing attention and shown great practical value in recent years. Existing research on opinion mining mainly focuses on the extraction of lexicon orientation and opinion targets. The explanations of opinions, which are potentially valuable for many applications, are totally ignored. To address this specific research challenge, in this paper, we propose an approach to extract the explanation of reason and/or consequence behind an opinion via learning word pairs and using causal indicators from Chinese online reviews. We also improve our word pair based method by constructing clusters of word paris. Experiments on a Chinese business review corpus show that our method is feasible and effective.
