Description of stability for linear time-invariant systems based on the first curvature

This paper focuses on using the first curvature κ(t) of trajectory to describe the stability of linear time-invariant system. We extend the results for two and three-dimensional systems (Wang, Sun, Song et al, arXiv:1808.00290) to n-dimensional systems. We prove that for a system $\text{◂=▸}\dot{r}(t)=\text{◂⋅▸}Ar(t)$, (a) if there exists a measurable set whose Lebesgue measure is greater than zero, such that $\text{◂≠▸}\underset{t\to +\infty }{\lim }\kappa (t)\ne 0$ or $\underset{t\to +\infty }{\lim }\kappa (t)$ does not exist for any initial value in this set, then the zero solution of the system is stable; (b) if the matrix A is invertible, and there exists a measurable set whose Lebesgue measure is greater than zero, such that $\text{◂=▸}\underset{t\to +\infty }{\lim }\kappa (t)=+\infty$ for any initial value in this set, then the zero solution of the system is asymptotically stable.     

Rapid and label-free classification of pathogens based on light scattering,reduced power spectral features and support vector machine

The rapid identification of pathogens is crucial in controlling the food quality and safety. The proposed system for the rapid and label-free identification of pathogens is based on the principle of laser scattering from the bacterial microbes. The clinical prototype consists of three parts: the laser beam, photodetectors, and the data acquisition system. The bacterial testing sample was mixed with 10 mL distilled water and placed inside the machine chamber. When the bacterial microbes pass by the laser beam, the scattering of light occurs due to variation in size, shape, and morphology. Due to this reason, different types of pathogens show their unique light scattering patterns. The photo-detectors were arranged at the surroundings of the sample at different angles to collect the scattered light. The photodetectors convert the scattered light intensity into a voltage waveform. The waveform features were acquired by using the power spectral characteristics, and the dimensionality of extracted features was reduced by applying minimal-redundancy-maximal-relevance criterion (mRMR). A support vector machine (SVM) classifier was developed by training the selected power spectral features for the classification of three different bacterial microbes. The resulting average identification accuracies of E. faecalis, E. coli and S. aureus were 99%, 87%, and 94%, respectively. The overall experimental results yield a higher accuracy of 93.6%, indicating that the proposed device has the potential for label-free identification of pathogens with simplicity, rapidity, and cost-effectiveness.     

Embedding of RCD⁎(K,N) spaces in L2 via eigenfunctions

In this paper we study the family of embeddings ${\mathrm{\Phi }}_t$ of a compact ${\mathrm{RCD}}^{?}(K,N)$ space $(X,\mathsf{d},\mathfrak{m})$ into $L^2(X,\mathfrak{m})$ via eigenmaps. Extending part of the classical results [10], [11] known for closed Riemannian manifolds, we prove convergence as $t\downarrow 0$ of the rescaled pull-back metrics ${\mathrm{\Phi }}_t^{?}{g}_{L^2}$ in $L^2(X,\mathfrak{m})$ induced by ${\mathrm{\Phi }}_t$. Moreover we discuss the behavior of ${\mathrm{\Phi }}_t^{?}{g}_{L^2}$ with respect to measured Gromov-Hausdorff convergence and t. Applications include the quantitative $L^p$-convergence in the noncollapsed setting for all $p<\infty$, a result new even for closed Riemannian manifolds and Alexandrov spaces.     

排序支持的交互数据分类算法及其应用

交互分类是解决数据复杂分类问题的主要手段之一。在现有的大多交互分类系统中，用户能准确识别数据类别，但在有些分类场景中,类别之间的顺序关系更容易被识别，为此，提出一种排序支持的交互数据分类算法。为提升交互分类精度，引入数据的顺序信息，为降低标记难度，提出候选样本推荐策略。另外,提出一种评估分类算法性能的可视化方法，用包含基本车况、交通违法记录、交通事故记录等信息的车辆数据集进行实验验证，将相关车辆分为高危车辆、中危车辆、低危车辆3类，算法的分类结果模型一致度达近98%，验证了方法的有效性。     

A Criterion of Nonparabolicity by the Ricci Curvature

A complete manifold is said to be nonparabolic if it does admit a positive Green’s function. To ?nd a sharp geometric criterion for the parabolicity/nonparbolicity is an attractive question inside the function theory on Riemannian manifolds. This paper devotes to proving a criterion for nonparabolicity of a complete manifold weakened by the Ricci curvature. For this purpose, we shall apply the new Laplacian comparison theorem established by the ?rst author to show the existence of a non-constant bounded subharmonic function.     

An alternative proof of lower bounds for the first eigenvalue on manifolds

Recently, Andrews and Clutterbuck [1] gave a new proof of the optimal lower eigenvalue bound on manifolds via modulus of continuity for solutions of the heat equation. In this short note, we give an alternative proof of Theorem 2 in [1]. More precisely, following Ni's method (Section 6 of [5]), we give an elliptic proof of this theorem.     

Necessary and Sufficient Conditions for Weak Quasi Efficiency in Nonsmooth Multiobjective Problems

In this article, a multiobjective problem with a feasible set defined by inequality, equality and set constraints is considered, where the objective and constraint functions are locally Lipschitz. Several constraint qualifications are given and the relations between them are analyzed. We establish Kuhn-Tucker and strong Kuhn-Tucker necessary optimality conditions for (weak) quasi e?ciency in terms of the Clarke subdifferential. By using two new classes of generalized convex functions, su?cient conditions for local (weak) quasi e?cient are also provided. Furthermore, we study the Mond-Weir type dual problem and establish weak, strong and converse duality results.     

A Liouville theorem for weighted p−Laplace operator on smooth metric measure spaces

We prove that on a smooth metric measure space with m ?Bakry–Émery curvature bounded from below by ?(m ? 1)K for some constant K ≥0 (i.e., Ric_{f ,m} ≥?(m ? 1)K ), the following degenerate elliptic equation (0.1) has no nonconstant positive solution when p > 1 and constant λ _{f ,p} satisfies Our approach is based on the local Sobolev inequality and the Moser's iterative technique and is different from Cheng‐Yau's method, which was used by Wang‐Zhu in 2012 to derive a same Liouville theorem when 1 < p ≤2, Ric_{f ,m} ≥?(m ? 1)K and the sectional curvature is bounded from below.
