Towards this demand, the current article first derives some novel interpretations of statistical independence for bounded support random vectors and then uses those interpretations to develop new class of BSS <em>contrast</em>s.

The estimations also serve to extend the existing analogy between <em>Information Theory</em> and <em>Potential Field Theory</em> by introducing a concept of reference information potential. The article uses Genetic Algorithm (GA) and its’ newly derived variant, which is computationally more efficient at higher dimensions, as a global optimization technique within Search for Rotation based ICA (SRICA) algorithm framework. Overall, the simulations prove that the proposed BSS solutions combining the newly derived <em>contrast</em>s with the GA variant for optimization, achieve better separation quality even at large scale and with fewer samples. Furthermore, they remain blind against the distribution of source signals, are robust against outliers, able to avoid misconvergence at local optima, and offer greater accuracy with lower computational cost compared to even exhaustive search methods.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":17283,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The Franklin Institute-engineering and Applied Mathematics","volume":"362 12","pages":"Article 107819"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144501381","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, each UAV communicates with the base station (BS) and performs radar sensing for one target in the presence of multiple clutters. In particular, to guarantee robustness against channel uncertainty, we employ the imperfect channel state information (CSI) and formulate a joint optimization problem to maximize the minimal achievable rate of UAVs, subject to the constraints of the signal-to-clutter plus interference and noise ratio requirement and the UAV transmit power budget. To handle the impact of channel uncertainty, we leverage the triangle inequality and Kronecker product properties to transform the worst-case constraints into tractable forms, ensuring robustness against CSI errors. Then, we propose an alternating optimization framework based on semidefinite programming to iteratively optimize transceiver beamformers.

Currently, two main transmission protocols, Round-Robin and Try-Once-Discard, are used to address this issue. However, these protocols only allow one sensor to transmit at a time, which limits their ability to fully capture relevant system information and often results in conservative performance. To overcome these limitations, an error-based dynamic transmission strategy is proposed for distributed sensor networks. This strategy uses a double selection principle to more accurately identify signals worth transmitting by comparing error differences. The selected sensor data is then packaged and transmitted over the wireless network to other sensor nodes. A power allocation-dependent packet loss model is developed, which takes into account the varying packet lengths resulting from the scheduling protocol. Based on this, a sufficient condition is established to ensure that the filtering error remains within ellipsoidal constraints. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed transmission strategy offers superior filtering performance compared to traditional method. Additionally, this strategy reduces power consumption by an average of 47% over 20 transmission steps compared to the full transmission approach.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":17283,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The Franklin Institute-engineering and Applied Mathematics","volume":"362 12","pages":"Article 107801"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144470492","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At the first step, we consider the granular Euler–Lagrange conditions for fuzzy variational problems and Pontryagin’s maximum principle for fixed and free final states of fuzzy optimal control problems, based on the ideas of horizontal membership function and granular differentiability via the calculus of variations.
