Motivated by the remarkable improvement of information and communication technologies, along with the rapid progress of urbanization, smart city has become a novel brand. By mining big traffic data generated by widely deployed GPS devices and sensors in modern cities, we can unlock the knowledge of human mobility patterns and social functional regions, and then apply it to tackle critical problems in city construction. One of the tough issues is the paradoxical situation in urban traffic control and management, which is the empty carrying phenomenon for taxi drivers and the difficulty of taking a taxi for passengers. In the paper, we propose a data-driven taxi operation strategy to maximize drivers' profit, reduce energy consumption, and decrease environment pollution. Specifically, we capture social properties of functional areas through integrating, processing and analyzing the big traffic data. Later, we introduce the Time-Location-Sociality model which can identify three dimensional properties of city dynamics to predict the number of passengers in different social functional regions. Furthermore, we recommend Top-N areas for drivers according to the prediction outcomes, which introduce more profitable opportunities to pick up passengers. We conduct extensive experiments using the real GPS data generated by 12,000 taxis during 10 weekdays and 8 weekends in Beijing, and achieve prediction accuracies of 90.14% on weekdays and 86.37% at weekends respectively, which implies the effectiveness of our optimizing taxi operation strategy by considering the three dimensional properties.

This paper focuses on a 4-DOF manipulator with flexible beam frame. Due to the performance requirements of rapidity and stability, the model predictive control algorithm is adopted to make trajectory planning in joint space. Meanwhile, the motor characteristic is taken in consideration in form of constrains for MPC. While a tracking controller based on optimization algorithm is applied to calculate corresponding control actions. The control scheme is tested in MATLAB platform, and the simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed predictive control method on the manipulator.

Measuring the impact of authors can not only be a good guidance for new researchers, but also provide a standard for academic foundations and awards. Heterogeneous networks can capture more information about the interactions between entities and they are more and more widely used for the measurement of author impact. However, most of the existing researches take all the papers into the networks as equal, although they have different importance levels. In this paper, we propose a new model: TAPRank, which calculates author impact in author-paper network with considering the PageRank scores of papers for the first time. The PageRank algorithm is implemented in paper citation network, taking the time of publication of each paper into consideration. In addition, the experiments on DBLP dataset show a better performance of TAPRank than other state-of-the-art models.

Cluster analysis is important in scientific and industrial fields. In this study, we proposed a novel chaotic biogeography-based optimization(CBBO) method, and applied it in centroid-based clustering methods. The results over three types of simulation data showed that this proposed CBBO method gave better performance than chaotic particle swarm optimization, genetic algorithm, firefly algorithm, and quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization. In all, our CBBO method is effective in centroid-based clustering.

In this paper, a fast growing cascade neural network(FGCNN) is proposed, as a software sensor, to rapidly estimate the biochemical oxygen demand(BOD) in wastewater treatment plants(WWTPs). Firstly, a novel method, based on the orthogonal least squares(OLS), is put forward to add input and hidden units to the existing network one by one. Every unit added to the network affords the maximal reduction of the sum of squared errors(SSE). Then, the FGCNN incrementally updates its output weights by iterations without gradients and generalized inverses, while the other weights remain unchanged during the growth of the network. The simple and effective training method make the FGCNN learn extremely fast. Finally, the proposed FGCNN is applied to estimate the BOD in WWTPs using other easy-to-measure or secondary variables. The experiment results show that the FGCNN has better performance on real-time estimation of BOD than other similar methods.

Considering the accuracy of traditional echo simulation methods, an improved echo simulation method of geosynchronous synthetic aperture radar (GEO SAR) is proposed, which has a higher accuracy. Aiming at the fidelity of echo simulation, this article develops a target scene model based on curved surface and an algorithm for judging whether the targets are illuminated by the beam. The echo simulation method is conducted with GEOSAR parameters, which indicates the correctness of scene model and beam judging algorithm. What's more, the effect of scene model and judging algorithm on imaging algorithm is analyzed. And the approach in this paper has a significant meaning for the investigation of space-borne SAR echo simulation and imaging algorithm.

Differentazimuth targets have different Doppler centroid and different time support domain in slide spotlight synthetic aperture radar. Thus, it is hard to weighting windowon the echo in slide spotlight mode. This paper proposed an azimuth weightingmethod of slide spotlight SAR based on subaperture chirp scaling algorithm. Firstly, the subaperture number of the algorithm is discussed based on the shift of Doppler centroid and the pulse repetition frequency(PRF). Secondly, the range cell migration and the remove of the azimuth phase of each subapertureare processed by chirp scaling algorithm independently. At last, the data of each subapertureis combined together, and the azimuth weighting window is applied after an azimuth de-ramp process of the combined data. The computer simulationsverify the validityof the proposed algorithm.

In this paper, the effect of the satellite yawing, pitching and rotating to the antenna beam pointing is analyzed. At the same time, how the antenna beam pointing error affecting the imaging quality is interpreted. The most significant effect is that the pointing error will lead to paired echo in the SAR image and the paired echo may submerge the weak target. So in this paper we will present a method based on minimum entropy to compensate the beam pointing error and eliminate the paired echo. Finally, we present some simulation to verify the validity of the compensated method.

This paper presents a novel extended multi-structure local binary pattern (EMSLBP) approach for high-resolution image classification, generalizing the well-known local binary pattern (LBP) approach. In the proposed EMSLBP approach, three-coupled descriptors with multi-structure sampling are proposed to extract complementary features (pixel value and radial difference) from local image patches. The anisotropic features derived from elliptical sampling are also rotation invariant by averaging the histograms over rotational angles and combined with the isotropic features extracted from circular sampling. Experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively capture local spatial pattern and local contrast, consistently outperforming several state-of-the-art classification algorithms.
