This tutorial serves as the pioneer to introduce existing literature on state-of-the-art prescriptive analytics methods, such as the predict-then-optimize framework, the smart predict-then-optimize framework, the weighted sample average approximation framework, the empirical risk minimization framework, and the kernel optimization framework. Based on these frameworks, this tutorial further proposes possible improvements and practical tips to be considered when we use these methods.

First, the upper and lower frames of the pure electric bus body are initially designed with aluminum alloy and steel materials respectively to meet the lightweight requirements. Second, a finite element (FE) model of the bus body is established, and the validity of the model is validated through physical tests. Then, the sensitivity analysis is performed to identify the relative importance of individual design parameters over the entire domain. The Hamosilei sampling method is selected for the design of the experiment (DOE) because users can specify the number of experiments and ensure that the set of random numbers is a good representative of real variability, and the RBF model is adopted to approximate the responses of objectives and constraints. Finally, the multi-objective optimization (MOO) method based on GA with RBF model is used to solve the optimization problem of the lightweight steel-aluminum hybrid bus body. The results show that compared with the traditional fully steel body, the use of the aluminum alloy lower-frame structure can reduce body mass by 38.4%, and the proposed optimization method can further reduce the mass of the steel-aluminum body to 4.28% without affecting the structural stiffness and strength performance of the body.","PeriodicalId":48554,"journal":{"name":"Electronic Research Archive","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70245009","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mammography, which is commonly used for screening, is considered to be the most effective means of diagnosing breast cancer. Currently, computer-assisted breast mass systems based on mammography can help doctors improve film reading efficiency, but improving the accuracy of assisted diagnostic systems and reducing the false positive rate are still challenging tasks. In the image classification field, convolutional neural networks have obvious advantages over other classification algorithms. Aiming at the very small percentage of breast lesion area in breast X-ray images, in this paper, the classical VGG16 network model is improved by simplifying the network structure, optimizing the convolution form and introducing an attention mechanism. The improved model achieves 99.8 and 98.05% accuracy on the Mammographic Image Analysis Society (MIAS) and The Digital Database for Screening Mammography (DDSM), respectively, which is obviously superior to some methods of recent studies.","PeriodicalId":48554,"journal":{"name":"Electronic Research Archive","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70245051","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the integration of VR into HRI also introduces new challenges, such as latency, mismatch between virtual and real environments and potential adverse effects on human users. Despite these challenges, the use of VR in HRI has the potential to provide numerous benefits, including improved communication, increased safety and enhanced training and education. Yet, little research has been done by scholars to review the state of the art of VR applications in human-robot interaction. To bridge the gap, this paper provides an overview of the challenges and benefits of using VR in HRI, as well as current research in the field and future directions for development. It has been found that robots are getting more personalized, interactive and engaging than ever; and with the popularization of virtual reality innovations, we might be able to foresee the wide adoption of VR in controlling robots to fulfill various tasks of hospitals, schools and factories. Still, there are several challenges, such as the need for more advanced VR technologies to provide more realistic and immersive experiences, the development of more human-like robot models to improve social interactions and the need for better methods of evaluating the effectiveness of VR in human-robot interaction.","PeriodicalId":48554,"journal":{"name":"Electronic Research Archive","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70245058","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ensemble learning is a robust solution for addressing the imbalanced classification problem. To construct a successful ensemble classifier, the diversity of base classifiers should receive specific attention. In this paper, we present a novel ensemble learning algorithm called Selective Evolutionary Heterogeneous Ensemble (SEHE), which produces diversity by two ways, as follows: 1) adopting multiple different sampling strategies to generate diverse training subsets and 2) training multiple heterogeneous base classifiers to construct an ensemble. In addition, considering that some low-quality base classifiers may pull down the performance of an ensemble and that it is difficult to estimate the potential of each base classifier directly, we profit from the idea of a selective ensemble to adaptively select base classifiers for constructing an ensemble. In particular, an evolutionary algorithm is adopted to conduct the procedure of adaptive selection in SEHE. The experimental results on 42 imbalanced data sets show that the SEHE is significantly superior to some state-of-the-art ensemble learning algorithms which are specifically designed for addressing the class imbalance problem, indicating its effectiveness and superiority.","PeriodicalId":48554,"journal":{"name":"Electronic Research Archive","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70245123","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
