Numerical experience with the truncated Newton method for unconstrained optimization

The truncated Newton algorithm was devised by Dembo and Steihaug (Ref. 1) for solving large sparse unconstrained optimization problems. When far from a minimum, an accurate solution to the Newton equations may not be justified. Dembo's method solves these equations by the conjugate direction method, but truncates the iteration when a required degree of accuracy has been obtained. We present favorable numerical results obtained with the algorithm and compare them with existing codes for large-scale optimization.     

A CLASS OF TRUST REGION METHODS FOR LINEAR INEQUALITY CONSTRAINED OPTIMIZATION AND ITS THEORY ANALYSIS Ⅱ. LOCAL CONVERGENCE RATE AND NUMERICAL TESTS

In this paper we prove that a class of trust region methods presented in part Ⅰ is superlinearly convergent. Numerical tests are reported thereafter. Results by solving a set of typical problems selected from literatures have demonstrated that our algorithm is effective.     

An optimum tolerance region for multivariate regression

A tolerance region is a map from the sample space of one statistical model to the event space of a second statistical model having the same parameter. This paper derives an optimum β-expectation tolerance region for the multivariate regression model. A measure of power is proposed and evaluated.     

Tangential Limits of Potentials on Homogeneous Trees

Let T be a homogeneous tree of homogeneity q+1. Let denote the boundary of T, consisting of all infinite geodesics b=[b ₀,b ₁,b ₂,] beginning at the root, 0. For each b, 1, and a0 we define the approach region _,a (b) to be the set of all vertices t such that, for some j, t is a descendant of b _j and the geodesic distance of t to b _j is at most (–1)j+a. If >1, we view these as tangential approach regions to b with degree of tangency . We consider potentials Gf on T for which the Riesz mass f satisfies the growth condition _T f ^p (t)q ^–|t|<, where p>1 and 0<<1, or p=1 and 0<1. For 11/, we show that Gf(s) has limit zero as s approaches a boundary point b within _,a (b) except for a subset E of of -dimensional Hausdorff measure 0, where H (E)=sup_>0inf _i q ^{–|t i|}:E a subset of the boundary points passing through t _i for some i,|t _i |>log _q (1/).     

一种基于正负差图像的运动目标检测新方法

运动目标检测领域中现有的差图像法是利用绝对值差图像检测差图像上运动目标区域，用现有方法检测时易受噪声干扰，而且当摄像机有自运动时需要进行背景运动补偿。因此，提出一种新算法，即首先分别计算正差图像与负差图像，然后利用运动目标区域在正差图像与负差图像中的幅值、形状以及运动等信息的对称性对其进行检测，最后给出针对飞机尾焰序列图像进行检测的结果。实验结果表明：该方法可提高运动目标检测的可靠性与效率。     

Trends in microdisk laser research and linear optical modelling

Research into microdisk lasers demonstrates new achievements both in the technology and in the associated physical effects and applications. Melting and rounding of the disk edge boosts the Q-factors due to improved surface smoothness. In-plane cavity shape is widely used as a design instrument. Optimal shaping of pumped area lowers the threshold power. Photonic molecules made of several microdisks as “photonic atoms” show lasing at several closely spaced frequencies. A microdisk with a single quantum dot as an active region is considered as the most promising system for realisation of a single photon emitter necessary for quantum computing. These new effects and devices can be simulated with accurate numerical techniques, developed recently for “warm-cavity” linear modelling, that are able to bring a new vision of the physics of lasing.

A Theory of Electron Transfer in Bridged and Supramolecular Systems

Expressions are derived for the tunnel electric current between two metals produced by the adiabatic transitions of the electrons through a bridge electron level. A new possible physical phenomenon is discussed, viz. electronically driven oscillations of the electron bridge level between two molecular wires.     

Initial guess by improved population-based intelligent algorithms for large inter-frame deformation measurement using digital image correlation

Digital image correlation (DIC) has received a widespread research and application in experimental mechanics. In DIC, the performance of subpixel registration algorithm (e.g., Newton-Raphson method, quasi-Newton method) relies heavily on the initial guess of deformation. In the case of small inter-frame deformation, the initial guess could be found by simple search scheme, the coarse-fine search for instance. While for large inter-frame deformation, it is difficult for simple search scheme to robustly estimate displacement parameters and deformation parameters simultaneously with low computational cost. In this paper, we proposed three improving strategies, i.e. Q-stage evolutionary strategy (T), parameter control strategy (C) and space expanding strategy (E), and then combined them into three population-based intelligent algorithms (PIAs), i.e. genetic algorithm (GA), differential evolution (DE) and particle swarm optimization (PSO), and finally derived eighteen different algorithms to calculate the initial guess for qN. The eighteen algorithms were compared in three sets of experiments including large rigid body translation, finite uniaxial strain and large rigid body rotation, and the results showed the effectiveness of proposed improving strategies. Among all compared algorithms, DE-TCE is the best which is robust, convenient and efficient for large inter-frame deformation measurement.
