Abstract An intelligent optimization algorithm for a marine generator excitation controller
is proposed to improve dynamic performance of shipboard power systems. This
algorithm combines a belief–desire–intention agent with a quantum-behaved
particle swarm optimization (QPSO) algorithm to optimize a marine generator
excitation controller. The shipboard zonal power system is simulated under
disturbance due to load change or severe fault. The results show that the
proposed optimization algorithm can improve marine generator stability
compared with conventional excitation controllers under various operating
conditions. Moreover, the proposed intelligent algorithm is highly robust because
its performance is insensitive to the accuracy of system parameters. More >

Abstract Improving Available Transfer Capability is an important issue in the deregulated
power systems. The Available Transfer Capability of a transmission network is
the transfer capabilities of a transmission network for the transfer of power for
further commercial activity, over and above already committed usage. It is a
proven fact that Flexible Alternating Current Transmission System technology
can control voltage magnitude, phase angle, and circuit reactance. Therefore, it
is important to investigate the impact of Flexible Alternating Current
Transmission System controllers on the available transfer capability. This paper

Abstract Ultrasonic cleaners are devices that perform ultrasonic cleaning by using
ultrasonic converters. Ultrasonic cleaners have been employed to clean dirty
and rusty materials such as optic, jewelers, automotive and dental prosthesis
sectors. Due to non-identified correctly cleaning time, cavitation erosion has
been occurred at some materials, which desire for cleaning. In this study, an
intelligent cleaning device that runs autonomously identified cleaning time,
saves energy, and makes the cleaning process safely has been designed and
implemented. An ultrasonic cleaning time has been adjusted automatically by
monitoring of turbidity and conductivity values of liquid that is put in to the

Abstract The main aim of this paper is to propose a new technique for enhancing the
contrast of dark images using Dynamic Stochastic Resonance (DSR) and Multi
Wavelet Transform (MWT), which is computationally more efficient than the
conventional methods. In the work, for enhancing the contrast of dark images,
the intrinsic noise (darkness) of dark images has been used. The proposed
MWT-based DSR scheme (MWT-DSR) can yield better performances in terms of
visual information and color preservation than already reported techniques. The
desired output response is validated by the Relative Contrast Enhancement
Factor (F), Perceptual Quality Measures (PQM) and Color Enhancement… More >

Abstract Prediction space of distinct check-in locations in Location-Based Social Networks
is a challenge. In this paper, a thorough analysis of Foursquare Check-ins is
done. Based on previous check-in sequences, next location of social-users is
accurately predicted using multinomial-Hidden Markov Model (mHMM) with
Steady-State probabilities. This information benefits security-agencies in
tracking suspects and restaurant-owners to predict their customers’ arrivals at
different venues on given days. Higher accuracy and Steady-State venuepopularities obtained for location-prediction using the proposed method,
outperform various other baseline methods. More >

Abstract With the development of service computing technologies, the online services
are massive and disordered now. How to find appropriate services quickly and
build a more powerful composed service according to user interests has been a
research focus in recent years. Current service recommendation algorithms
often directly follow the traditional recommendation framework of ecommerce,
which cannot effectively assist users to complete dynamic online business
construction. Therefore, a novel service recommendation approach named
UISCS (User-Interest- initial Services-Correlation-successor Services) is
proposed, which is designed for interactive scenario of service composition, and
it mines the user implicit interests and the service correlations for service… More >

Abstract A numerical optimization algorithm for unsteady flows of rotor based on web
service is proposed. Space discretization uses the finite volume method, time
discretization uses the implicit dual-time steps method, and turbulence model
uses the Spalart–Allmaras (S–A) model. In order to efficiently use the
computing resources of the cluster, a service-oriented service computing
architecture is used in a parallel computing service program. In order to realize
the load balance of hybrid grid partition, the grid is partitioned by Metis Library.
Meanwhile, data communication based on Message Passing Interface (MPI)
technology guarantees the consistency of convergence between parallel

Abstract Path planning is an important topic of research in modern intelligent traffic
systems (ITSs). Traditional path planning methods aim to identify the shortest
path and recommend this path to the user. However, the shortest path is not
always optimal, especially in emergency rescue scenarios. Thus, complex and
changeable factors, such as traffic congestion, road construction and traffic
accidents, should be considered when planning paths. To address this
consideration, the maximum passing probability of a road is considered the
optimal condition for path recommendation. In this paper, the traffic network is
abstracted as a directed graph. Probabilistic data on traffic flow… More >

Abstract Rockburst phenomenon is a kind of phenomenon that the rock is out and ejected
because the mineral was dug out, and the original force balance was destroyed in
the process of mineral exploitation. From 2007, GeoLab (abbreviation of State Key
Laboratory in China for GeoMechanics and Deep Underground Engineering) had
made a series of important achievements in rockburst. Up to now, GeoLab’s
rockburst experiment data is reached 800T, and these data may occupy about
2PB hard disk space after analyzed. At this ratio, GeoLab need to buy a new hard
disk to save all these data every 46 hours rockburst… More >

method which initially learns the power consumption of each appliance and
then disaggregates meter readings using the previous learning result. In this

Abstract Recommender methods using reviews have become an area of active research

not considered adequate. To this end, this paper proposes a novel
recommendation approach based on using product attributes to improve the
efficiency of recommendation, and a hybrid collaborative filtering is presented.

Abstract Mapping from sentence phrases to knowledge graph resources is an important step for
applications such as search engines, automatic question answering systems based on

to a knowledge graph resource strictly or approximately from the text. However, it is
difficult to detect phrases and map the composite semantic resource. This paper proposes a longest matching resource mapping scheme to solve this problem, namely, to
find the longest substring in a sentence that can match the knowledge base resource.
