Bayesian adaptation in Poisson cognitive systems by Aleksander A. Solodov

“…In particular, to describe the stochastic properties of cognitive systems and the possibility of creating an optimal algorithm, the Bayesian approach recognized in a number of philosophical works is applied.The optimal estimate by the criterion of the minimum standard error is, as is known, a posteriori mathematical expectation of a random estimated value, which is applied in this work. In this case, the well- known difficulty of using Bayesian optimal estimation is the need to set a priori probabilities of a random variable in the system under consideration. …”

Incorporation of Mean/Maximum Stress Effects in the Multiaxial Racetrack Filter by Marco Antonio Meggiolaro, Jaime Tupiassú Pinho de Castro, Hao Wu

“…In this way, a small stress or strain amplitude event can be filtered out if associated with a non-damaging low mean or peak stress level, while another event with the very same amplitude can be preserved if happening under a more damaging high mean or peak stress level. The variable value of the filter amplitude must be calculated in real time, thus it cannot depend on the peak or mean stresses along a load event, because it would require cycle identification and as so information about future events. …”

Traffic Prediction of Space-Integrated-Ground Information Network Based on Improved LSTM Algorithm by Chengsheng PAN, Yufu WANG, Li YANG

“…The space-integrated-ground information network is easy to interrupt and the traffi c fl uctuation is not stable due to the problems of high traffi c burst and topological time-varying, which makes the traffi c prediction diffi cult much higher than the ground.In order to solve this problem, an improved LSTM algorithm was put forward.Firstly, the traffi c autocorrelation was judged by analyzd the infl uence of the lag variable of traffi c sequence on the predicted value; Secondly, the noise and breakpoint of the training set were eliminated by replacing the interruption with the predicted value; Finally, Dropout algorithm was used to reduce the impact of noise and neural network over fi tting, and accurately predict the traffi c data of the integrated intelligent network.The simulation results showed that in OPNET simulation environment, compared with other algorithms, the accuracy of this algorithm was improved by 59.21%, and the training speed of the algorithm was improved by 11.11%, which could provide eff ective data support for the overall scheduling of the integrated intelligent network.…”

Slope Stability from a Hydrological Perspective: Taking Typical Soil Slope as an Example by Yuelu Zhu, Yaoting Xiao

“…In the traditional research of slope stability, it is difficult to continuously obtain the moisture content of soil in long time sequences. In combination with the precipitation, temperature, and vegetation cover data in the study area, the variable infiltration capacity hydrological model is used to estimate the daily variation of soil moisture content, which is used as a calculation condition for the analysis of slope stability. …”
