The motion estimation is performed by means of optical flow. In this paper, a fractional order variational model is presented for motion estimation. In particular, the proposed model generalizes the existing variational models from integer order to fractional order. More specific, the fractional order derivative describes discontinuous information about texture and edges, whereas integer order unable to do so, and therefore, a more suitable in estimating the optical flow. The Grünwald-Letnikov derivative is used as a discretization scheme to discretize the complex fractional order partial differential equations corresponding to the Euler-Lagrange equations. The resulting system of equations is solved by using the conjugate gradient method. Experimental results on various datasets verify the validity of the proposed model.","PeriodicalId":211040,"journal":{"name":"2016 Eighth International Conference on Advanced Computational Intelligence (ICACI)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114513086","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is impractical to label these data manually. Traditionally unsupervised algorithms have been applied to address this challenge. In the situation where relevant features are included or when the features are not selected properly, it could lead to poorly-separated clusters and deteriorate the clustering performance. It is of interest to investigate the performance of clustering techniques in these circumstances. This paper aims to provide a comparative study and investigation of three well-known clustering techniques, i.e. the k-means clustering algorithm, hierarchical clustering algorithm and expectation-maximisation (EM) clustering algorithm, combined with Calinski-Harabasz index, Davies-Bouldin index, Gap value index, and Silhouette index for determining the number of clusters for both well- and poorly-separated clusters. The experimental results on two real bearing datasets show that the expectation-maximisation (EM) clustering algorithm combined with the Gap value index is the most efficient and robust method to determine the optimal number of clusters in the dataset and classify the unlabelled data.","PeriodicalId":211040,"journal":{"name":"2016 Eighth International Conference on Advanced Computational Intelligence (ICACI)","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132980198","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Multi-translatable OOV terms are OOV terms with some possible OOV synonyms, thus they have more than one correct translations. Traditional methods usually ignore such problem and neither identify/extract multi-translatable OOV terms nor translate them. This paper proposes a web-based OOV term translation method by utilizing a novel automatic multi-translatable OOV term identification and extraction approach. This approach integrates synonymous features and pattern matching to solve multi-translatable OOV term problems. A combined translation method is proposed for extracting translation candidates. To achieve high translation selection quality, we conducted statistical feature extraction, an artificial neural network combined with backward feature selection, and evolutionary parameter optimization is trained for selecting correct translations.

The new algorithm is derived from the competitive swarm optimizer (CSO). The new algorithm uses population entropy to make a quantitative description about the diversity of population, and to divide the population into two sub-groups dynamically. During the early stage of the execution process, to speed up convergence of the algorithm, the sub-group with better fitness will have a small size, and worse large sub-group will learn from small one. During the late stage of the execution process, to keep the diversity of the population, the sub-group with better fitness will have a large size, and small worse sub-group will learn from large group. The proposed DCSO is evaluated on CEC'08 benchmark functions on large scale global optimization.

How to steer such unreceptive agents to reach consensus remains an interesting and challenging topic for research of social and biological networks. The underlying problem is further complicated when the system involves both time-varying topologies and communication delays in network interaction. In this paper, the consensus problem of second-order multi-agent systems with time-varying delays and dynamically changing topologies is studied in antagonistic balanced network. A consensus protocol using only local (neighboring) information with nonuniform time-delays is developed to drive the antagonistically grouped agents to a common target. A sufficient condition is established for the proposed strategy to ensure the existence of the solution for the antagonistic consensus problem under non-identically varying time-delays and non-rigidly connected communication topologies.

In this paper, a new method that combine the differential evolution with hybrid analysis method is presented to solve the worst-case circuit tolerance design problem. The hybrid analysis method is comprised of two commonly used worst-case circuit tolerance analysis approaches, vertex analysis and Monte Carlo analysis. The search direction of differential evolution is leaded by vertex analysis at the first stage, through which we can reduce the computational complexity of fitness calculation dramatically. Monte Carlo analysis, a higher accuracy analysis method, is applied to ensure the quality of the solutions at the second stage. Some of the individuals are reinitialized to enhance the diversity of the population at the beginning of the second stage. By cooperating the two analysis methods, the proposed method can converge to the global optimum or near-optimum solutions more quickly.
