Cost operator algorithms for the transportation problem

A primal transportation algorithm is devised via post-optimization on the costs of a modified problem. The procedure involves altering the costs corresponding to the basic cells of the initial (primal feasible) solution so that it is dual feasible as well. The altered costs are then successively restored to their true values with appropriate changes in the optimal solution by the application of cell or area cost operators discussed elsewhere. The cell cost operator algorithm converges to optimum within (2T – 1) steps for primal nondegenerate transportation problems and [(2T + 1) min (m, n)] – 1 steps for primal degenerate transportation problems, whereT is the sum of the (integer) warehouse availabilities (also the sum of the (integer) market requirements) andm andn denote the number of warehouses and markets respectively. For the area cost operator algorithm the corresponding bounds on the number of steps areT and (T + 1) min (m, n) respectively.This report was prepared as part of the activities of the Management Sciences Research Group, Carnegie—Mellon University, under Contract N00014-67-A-0314-0007 NR 047-048 with the U.S. Office of Naval Research.     

Multi-choice stochastic transportation problem involving extreme value distribution

In this paper a multi choice stochastic transportation problem is considered where the supply and demand parameters of the constraints follow extreme value distribution. Some of the cost coefficients of the objective function are multi-choice type. At first all the probabilistic constraints are transformed into deterministic constraints. Further using the binary variables, multi-choice type cost coefficients are handled. Then the transformed problem is considered as a deterministic multi-choice transportation problem. Finally, a numerical example is presented to illustrate the solution procedure.     

Mitigating adjacent channel interference in vehicular communication systems

In the last few decades, dedicated wireless channels were specifically allocated to enable the development and implementation of vehicular communication systems. The two main protocol stacks, the WAVE standards proposed by the IEEE in the United States and the ETSI ITS-G5 in Europe, reserved 10 MHz wide channels in the 5.9 GHz spectrum band. Despite the exclusive use of these frequencies for vehicular communication purposes, there are still cross channel interference problems that have been widely reported in the literature. In order to mitigate these issues, this paper presents the design of a two-stage FIR low-pass filter, targeting the integration with a digital baseband receiver chain of a custom vehicular communications platform. The filter was tested, evaluated and optimized, with the simulation results proving the effectiveness of the proposed method and the low delay introduced in the overall operation of the receiver chain.     

基于荧光光谱技术的菜籽油氧化状态智能评价

菜籽油在加工及贮藏过程中，易受氧气、温度、光照等因素的影响，产生氧化酸败现象。为准确判断油脂氧化程度，实现不同氧化模式下菜籽油品质的快速判别，采用三维同步荧光光谱技术结合平行因子分析法及BP神经网络法建立菜籽油氧化状态的智能评价模型。以冷榨菜籽油为原料，将样品分别置于常温、Schaal烘箱、高温模式中氧化处理，期间采集菜籽油的三维同步荧光光谱数据及理化指标，当理化指标超出国标限定范围时，停止采集数据。结果表明，菜籽油中荧光物质在不同氧化模式中的演变规律呈显著差异，氧化温度对菜籽油荧光光谱有明显影响。常温氧化350 d与第1 d相比，菜籽油的特征荧光峰位置无变化，仅在激发波长Ex为620和660 nm附近荧光峰强度发生微弱变化；Schaal烘箱氧化26 d后，在激发波长Ex为620和660 nm附近荧光峰强度显著减弱，且在激发波长Ex为350～450 nm之间有新的荧光峰生成；高温氧化48 h后，Ex为620和660 nm处荧光峰消失，在Ex为400～550 nm处产生显著荧光峰，相对Schaal烘箱氧化，荧光波长发生一定程度红移，这是由于高温氧化过程中油脂氧化生成的物质稳定性较差引起的。利用平行因子分析法对三维同步荧光光谱数据进行分解获取有效的二维荧光光谱数据，当组分数为6，Δλ=60 nm时激发波长的载荷值最大，不同样品间差异最显著。选定Δλ=60 nm波段的二维荧光光谱数据用于智能评价，作为BP神经网络模型的输入值，以极性组分作为模型输出值，分别对菜籽油三种氧化模式数据建模训练。实验结果表明，三种氧化模式对应的训练集、验证集、测试集模型相关系数r均能达到0.9以上，其中常温氧化模式中验证集及测试集模型的相关系数r为1，输出值与目标值较接近，模型的预测效果较好；综合三种氧化模式数据建模，对应训练集、验证集、测试集模型的相关系数分别为0.999，0.913和0.988，均方误差均较小，说明该模型能准确判断菜籽油的不同氧化状态。因此，三维同步荧光光谱技术结合平行因子分析法、BP神经网络法建立快速检测模型能实现菜籽油不同氧化状态的判别，为菜籽油的氧化程度的评价提供新方法，同时为其他食用油的品质评价提供参考。     

Multinational vehicle license plate detection in complex backgrounds

Many methods for multinational License Plate Detection (LPD) have been proposed in recent times but most of them are not sophisticated enough to handle complex backgrounds. Moreover, their ability to handle various environmental and illumination conditions has been limited and still needs improvement. In this paper, we propose a novel technique to detect license plates of vehicles regardless of their color, size, and content. As the rear vehicle lights are an essential part of any vehicle, we reduce the image processing area to eliminate the complex background by detecting the rear-lights as the license plates are in a certain range of these lights. Heuristic Energy Map (HEM) of the vertical edge information in the Region of Interest (ROI) is calculated and area with the dense edges is selected using a unique histogram approach which is considered to be the license plate. The proposed algorithm is tested on 855 images from various countries including China, Pakistan, Serbia, Italy and various states of America. Experimental results show that the proposed method is able to detect license plates 90.4% of times despite of complex backgrounds in 0.25 s on average that can achieve real time performance.

A topological phase transition between small-worlds and fractal scaling in urban railway transportation networks?

Fractal and small-worlds scaling laws are applied to study the growth of urban railway transportation networks using total length and total population as observational parameters. In spite of the variety of populations and urban structures, the variation of the total length of the railway network with the total population of conurbations follows similar patterns for large and middle metropolis. Diachronous analysis of data for urban transportation networks suggests that there is second-order phase transition from small-worlds behaviour to fractal scaling during their early stages of development.
