The Basic idea is to minimize the L2 norm of error between the desired vector and achievable vector using the designing freedom provided by EA technique. Besides adjusting the output vector parameters, the closed-loop eigenvalues are also optimized within desired regions on the left-half complex plane to ensure both closed-loop stability and dynamical performance. With the proposed approach, additional closed-loop specifications such as decoupling of different modes and robustness can also be easily achieved. As a demonstration, application of the proposed approach to the designing of flight control law for an advanced fighter is discussed. The results show good closed loop performance and validate the proposed intelligent optimization approach of EA technique","PeriodicalId":309740,"journal":{"name":"2006 Eighth International Symposium on Symbolic and Numeric Algorithms for Scientific Computing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131019313","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}

By using competitive learning, Kohonen's self-organizing maps (KSOM) can generate mappings from high-dimensional signal spaces to lower dimensional topological structures. The main features of KSOM are formation of topology preserving feature maps and approximation of input probability distribution. However, KSOM have some shortages, e.g., a fixed number of neural units and a fixed topology dimensionality which can result in problems if this dimensionality does not match the dimensionality of the feature manifold. Compared to KSOM, growing self-organizing neural networks (GSONN) can change their topological structures during learning. The topology formation of both GSONN and KSOM is driven by soft competitive learning. This paper first gives an introduction to KSOM and neural gas network. Then, we discuss some GSONN without fixed dimensionality such as growing neural gas and the author's model: twin growing neural gas and it's application for pattern classification.

This applies also to enterprise applications, a novel category of software systems. As it is well known, one step toward a research infrastructure accelerating the progress of reverse engineering is the creation of an intermediate representation of software systems. This paper shows why existing intermediate representations of object-oriented software are not suitable for performing reverse engineering upon enterprise applications and proposes an intermediate representation (a model) for enterprise applications which facilitates the process of reverse engineering upon this type of applications.

The clusters themselves are sometimes terms \"communities\" and the way clusters relate to one another is often referred to as a \"community structure\". We study a modularity criterion MQ introduced by Mancoridis et al. in order to infer community structure on relational data. We prove a fundamental and useful property of the modularity measure MQ, showing that it can be approximated by a Gaussian distribution, making it a prevalent choice over less focused optimization criterion for graph clustering. This makes it possible to compare two different clusterings of a same graph as well as asserting the overall quality of a given clustering relying on the fact that MQ is Gaussian. Moreover, we introduce a generalization extending MQ to hierarchical clusterings of graphs which reduces to the original MQ when the hierarchy becomes flat","PeriodicalId":309740,"journal":{"name":"2006 Eighth International Symposium on Symbolic and Numeric Algorithms for Scientific Computing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132749799","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}
