An Improved Virtual Terrain Generation Method Based On Simplex Noise, Bo Shen, Jianqin Zhang, Shuaibao Ma, Zheng Wen

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: To address the issues of high computational complexity, slow generation speed, and insufficient realism present in traditional virtual terrain generation methods, this study proposed an improved virtual terrain generation method based on Simplex noise. This method leveraged the advantages of Simplex noise, such as high computational efficiency, low hardware overhead, and more natural randomness, to construct a basic terrain template. A fractal algorithm was introduced to enhance the level of terrain details through the superposition of noises with multiple frequencies and amplitudes. With the integration of a turbulence algorithm, random perturbations and complexity were added to further improve the …

Research On Constrained Programming Of Manipulator Using Rrt* Algorithm And Ellipse Prior, Zhen Yang, Li Su, Zhiyu Cheng

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: There are problems in the traditional RRT* algorithm using a uniform sampling strategy applied in constrained programming problems, such as inaccurate turning guidance of sampling points and unnecessary node cost comparisons, which lead to an increase in additional time costs. To address these issues, an improved RRT* algorithm was proposed. This algorithm leveraged a heuristic function cost of the projected sampling points to make an ellipse prior judgment on the sampling points. Based on the ellipse prior, the sampling points were judged to determine whether they could optimize the path and shorten the programming time. The geodesics were used …

Dynamic Order Scheduling For Pick-And-Pass System Considering Workload Balance And Learning Effects, Weihong Liu, Sixiang Zhao, Dali Zhang, Zhenhui Jiang

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: In e-commerce logistics, the hybrid pick-and-pass systems offer both complexity and flexibility, enabling adaptation to a wider range of order picking scenarios. Therefore, they have been widely used. However, this also complicates the order scheduling problem, particularly when both workload balance and pickers' learning effects need to be considered. Efficiently scheduling orders to reduce picking time under these conditions poses a significant challenge. This study began by constructing a mathematical model for the static scheduling problem with known orders. Based on this model, a simulation model of hybrid pick-and-pass zones was developed, and a scheduling rule incorporating multiple system …

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: To improve the model robustness for multi-degree-of-freedom continuous motion control, an intelligent motion control algorithm was proposed based on the Actor-Critic reinforcement learning framework and spiking neural networks. This algorithm integrateed the Actor network with spiking population coding and enhanced model training performance by introducing feature transformation methods. The Critic network was used to evaluate the effectiveness of the motion control. The results show that, compared to other reinforcement learning algorithms, the average reward value of this method increases by more than 10%. The simulation results validate the effectiveness of the model in improving multi-degree-of-freedom continuous control performance.

Impact Of Original Versus Reposted Social Endorsements On Content Consumption: The Moderating Role Of Endorsers’ Network Characteristics, Anqi ZHAO, Qian TANG 2025 Singapore Management University

Impact Of Original Versus Reposted Social Endorsements On Content Consumption: The Moderating Role Of Endorsers’ Network Characteristics, Anqi Zhao, Qian Tang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Social endorsements broadcast endorsers’ positive attitudes toward content or products, especially to their social ties. Original endorsements created by endorsers can be propagated further as reposted endorsements. Both are important marketing tools to increase content consumption, yet their differences are unclear. This study compares the impacts of original and reposted endorsements on content consumption and their contingencies on the endorsers’ network characteristics. Using data on social endorsements of YouTube videos on Twitter, we find that original endorsements (i.e., original tweets) significantly boost content consumption, and the effect is positively moderated by the endorsers’ network size but not their tie strength. …


Morphology-Aware Hrv Estimation From Wrist Ppg In Sedentary Scenarios, Changshuo HU, Hung Manh PHAM, Dong MA 2025 Singapore Management University

Morphology-Aware Hrv Estimation From Wrist Ppg In Sedentary Scenarios, Changshuo Hu, Hung Manh Pham, Dong Ma

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Photoplethysmography (PPG) is widely used in wearable devices for non-invasive heart rate variability (HRV) monitoring. While most prior work focuses on mitigating motion artifacts, recent studies highlight that even subtle contact pressure variations can distort waveform morphology and lead to inaccurate HRV estimates. In this work, we propose a morphology-aware deep learning framework that conditions HRV estimation on beat-level waveform types. Our model jointly encodes the raw PPG waveform and a sequence of pressure-induced morphology labels using parallel encoders, integrates them via cross-attention, and predicts normal-to-normal (NN) intervals and beat count to support downstream HRV computation. Evaluated on the public …

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Polynomial quantified entailments with existentially and universally quantified variables arise in many problems of verification and program analysis. We present PolyQEnt which is a tool for solving polynomial quantified entailments in which variables on both sides of the implication are real valued or unbounded integers. Our tool provides a unified framework for polynomial quantified entailment problems that arise in several papers in the literature. Our experimental evaluation over a wide range of benchmarks shows the applicability of the tool as well as its benefits as opposed to simply using existing SMT solvers to solve such constraints.

Meshless Discrete Velocity Boltzmann Model For Porous Media Flow, Amandine Maidenberg 2025 Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University

Meshless Discrete Velocity Boltzmann Model For Porous Media Flow, Amandine Maidenberg

Doctoral Dissertations and Master's Theses

This dissertation explores the combination of two sophisticated techniques for addressing computational fluid dynamics: the discrete velocity Boltzmann equation (DVBE) and the localized collocation meshless model with upwinding (U-LCMM). The DVBE is a high-level model that describes the foundations of transport phenomena by addressing the microscale motions of particles themselves and the effect of their aggregate behaviors on continuum principles. This equation integrates multiple scales of phenomena; while it can be used for fluid flow at Navier-Stokes scales, it can also resolve fine features that can only be described at the molecular level. This type of model is necessary for …

Optimization Of Multi-Target Interception Scheme Based On Performance Simulation Modeling, Hanwen Liu, Zhimin Zhuo, Xue Yang

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: The air attack scenarios faced by air defense weapons and equipment show the trend of saturation, diversification and intelligence. It is very important to establish multi-target interception efficiency model and optimize interception scheme according to simulation. The current intercepting efficiency index mainly considers the whole operation process, and can not guide the optimization of the intercepting scheme of specific intercepting rounds. The generation of interception schemes mainly relies on experience and simple mathematical model, which is difficult to cope with the increasingly complex and changeable battlefield environment. Therefore, an interception scheme advantage index that comprehensively considers interception probability and …

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: In current research on lane detection, existing algorithms can efficiently detect lane lines under good lighting conditions. However, lane detection in low light still faces the challenge of a high false negative rate. A detection algorithm called Instance Association Net(IANet) is proposed to address this issue by utilizing the structural relationships between lane lines, which is helpful for low light conditions. The algorithm first generates unique masks for different lane lines using features at the starting points of the lane lines and a global feature map, achieving instance-level feature separation of the lane lines. It employs an instance-level attention …
