Unsupervised and semi-supervised extreme learning machine with wavelet kernel for high dimensional data

Extreme learning machine (ELM) not only is an effective classifier in supervised learning, but also can be applied on unsupervised learning and semi-supervised learning. The model structure of unsupervised extreme learning machine (US-ELM) and semi-supervised extreme learning machine (SS-ELM) are same as ELM, the difference between them is the cost function. We introduce kernel function to US-ELM and propose unsupervised extreme learning machine with kernel (US-KELM). And SS-KELM has been proposed. Wavelet analysis has the characteristics of multivariate interpolation and sparse change, and Wavelet kernel functions have been widely used in support vector machine. Therefore, to realize a combination of the wavelet kernel function, US-ELM, and SS-ELM, unsupervised extreme learning machine with wavelet kernel function (US-WKELM) and semi-supervised extreme learning machine with wavelet kernel function (SS-WKELM) are proposed in this paper. The experimental results show the feasibility and validity of US-WKELM and SS-WKELM in clustering and classification.

New algebraic structures from Hermitian one-matrix model

Virasoro constraint is the operator algebra version of one-loop equation for a Hermitian one-matrix model, and it plays an important role in solving the model. We construct the realization of the Virasoro constraint from the Conformal Field Theory (CFT) method. From multi-loop equations of the one-matrix model, we get a more general constraint. It can be expressed in terms of the operator algebras, which is the Virasoro subalgebra with extra parameters. In this sense, we named as generalized Virasoro constraint. We enlarge this algebra with central extension, this is a new kind of algebra, and the usual Virasoro algebra is its subalgebra. And we give a bosonic realization of its subalgebra.     

A Sustainable Redox-Flow Battery with an Aluminum-Based,Deep-Eutectic-Solvent Anolyte

Nonaqueous redox-flow batteries are an emerging energy storage technology for grid storage systems, but the development of anolytes has lagged far behind that of catholytes due to the major limitations of the redox species, which exhibit relatively low solubility and inadequate redox potentials. Herein, an aluminum-based deep-eutectic-solvent is investigated as an anolyte for redox-flow batteries. The aluminum-based deep-eutectic solvent demonstrated a significantly enhanced concentration of circa 3.2 m in the anolyte and a relatively low redox potential of 2.2 V vs. Li⁺/Li. The electrochemical measurements highlight that a reversible volumetric capacity of 145 Ah L⁻¹ and an energy density of 189 Wh L⁻¹ or 165 Wh kg⁻¹ have been achieved when coupled with a I₃⁻/I⁻ catholyte. The prototype cell has also been extended to the use of a Br₂-based catholyte, exhibiting a higher cell voltage with a theoretical energy density of over 200 Wh L⁻¹. The synergy of highly abundant, dendrite-free, multi-electron-reaction aluminum anodes and environmentally benign deep-eutectic-solvent anolytes reveals great potential towards cost-effective, sustainable redox-flow batteries.     

In situ synthesis of poly(ethylene terephthalate-<Emphasis Type="Italic">co</Emphasis>-isophthalate)–SiO<Subscript>2</Subscript> nanocomposites and their optical properties

In this paper, poly(ethylene terephthalate-co-isophthalate) was prepared and a series of PETI/SiO₂ nanocomposites with different amounts of silica nanoparticles was synthesized by in situ polymerization. Optical properties of the resultant nanocomposites were investigated by WGW photoelectric haze meter and UV–Vis-NIR spectrophotometer. Chemical structure and its influence on spherulite size of nano-SiO₂ were characterized by Fourier transformed infrared spectra and polarized optical microscopy, respectively. The differential scanning calorimetry results reveal that the addition of nano-SiO₂ has an impact on the thermal performance of the nanocomposite. Different proportions of SiO₂ were compared and the degree of crystallinity was found to have influence on optical properties of as-prepared nanocomposites. In addition, the results indicate that the low loading levels of SiO₂ can improve the optical properties of the composite and an optimum content was selected. Possible reasons for this enhanced role might be the different combination structure of the nanocomposites when the amount of SiO₂ varied.     

An efficient multi-objective PSO algorithm assisted by Kriging metamodel for expensive black-box problems

The huge computational overhead is the main challenge in the application of community based optimization methods, such as multi-objective particle swarm optimization and multi-objective genetic algorithm, to deal with the multi-objective optimization involving costly simulations. This paper proposes a Kriging metamodel assisted multi-objective particle swarm optimization method to solve this kind of expensively black-box multi-objective optimization problems. On the basis of crowding distance based multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm, the new proposed method constructs Kriging metamodel for each expensive objective function adaptively, and then the non-dominated solutions of the metamodels are utilized to guide the update of particle population. To reduce the computational cost, the generalized expected improvements of each particle predicted by metamodels are presented to determine which particles need to perform actual function evaluations. The suggested method is tested on 12 benchmark functions and compared with the original crowding distance based multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm and non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm-II algorithm. The test results show that the application of Kriging metamodel improves the search ability and reduces the number of evaluations. Additionally, the new proposed method is applied to the optimal design of a cycloid gear pump and achieves desirable results.
