Heterogeneous Multi-Ant Colony Algorithm Combining Competitive Interaction Strategy And Eliminatingreconstructing Mechanism, Chen Feng, Xiaoming You, Sheng Liu

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: The traditional ant colony algorithm has many problems in convergence and diversity when solving the traveling salesman problem (TSP). Therefore, this paper proposes a heterogeneous multi-ant colony algorithm that combines the competitive interaction strategy and the eliminating-reconstructing mechanism (CEACO) to overcome these shortcomings. Firstly, the algorithm uses a competitive interaction strategy, which adjusts the interaction period adaptively according to the Hamming distance of different groups in different periods. Competition coefficients are adopted to differentiate matching interaction objects for interaction. The matched objects interact with each other through the optimal solution and pheromone matrix. This mechanism achieves a balance between …

Multi-Model Soft Sensor Modeling Under Help-Training Strategy, Luosuyang He, Weili Xiong

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: Due to the strong nonlinearity, multi-stage coupling, and the small number of labeled samples in complex industrial processes, it is difficult for traditional global soft sensor models to accurately describe the whole process. Therefore, a multi-model soft sensor modeling method under the helptraining strategy is proposed. This method uses a fuzzy C-means (FMC) clustering algorithm to mine similar samples in the sample set and build several sub-models. By introducing the help-training strategy, a collaborative training framework based on main and auxiliary learners is formed, and a confidence evaluation mechanism is designed to eliminate error samples and expand the modeling …

Beyond Standard Model: Structure Factors Of Models Of Different Quarks And Neutrinos As Spinning Structures Made Of Basic Fractional Charges +- E/3, Polievkt Perov

College of Arts & Sciences Faculty Works

We consider a possible line of “elementary” particles as composite spinning structures made of just two basic elementary particles of charges + e/3 and -e/3. In considered structures, up to 3 basic charges can be on the axis of rotation and other charges can be in a revolving motion about the axis. In addition to the simplest structures of quarks, an electron and a neutral particle containing mostly one or no charges on the axis of rotation, suggested initially in [4], we analyze possible spatial structures of spinning composite particles having 2 or 3 charges on the axis of rotation. …

Hyperstructures In Chemical Hyperstructures Of Redox Reactions With Three And Four Oxidation States, Fakhry Asad Agusfrianto, Sonea Andromeda, Mariam Hariri

All Works

Hyperstructures find numerous applications across various disciplines. One notable application is in chemistry, particularly in the context of chemical reactions. In 2014, Davvaz introduced the concept of bi-hyperstructures, but their application specifically in chemical reactions, has yet to be thoroughly explored in previous studies. Thus, the primary aim of this paper is to examine and analyze the different types of bi-hyperstructures present within chemical hyperstructures. The scope of this study focuses on two types of chemical hyperstructures: redox reactions and reactions in electrochemical cells. Within these chemical hyperstructures, we investigate the possibility of bi-hyperstructures among bi-semihypergroups, bi-hypergroups, bi-H_v-semigroups, and bi-H_v-groups. …

Locally Tight Programs, Jorge Fandinno, Vladimir Lifschitz, Nathan Temple

Computer Science Faculty Publications

Program completion is a translation from the language of logic programs into the language of first-order theories. Its original definition has been extended to programs that include integer arithmetic, accept input, and distinguish between output predicates and auxiliary predicates. For tight programs, that generalization of completion is known to match the stable model semantics, which is the basis of answer set programming. We show that the tightness condition in this theorem can be replaced by a less restrictive “local tightness” requirement. From this fact we conclude that the proof assistant ANTHEM-P2P can be used to verify equivalence between locally tight …
