In this paper, the model algorithmic control (MAC) strategy is extended to nonlinear processes using Hammerstein model that consists of a static nonlinear polynomial function followed in series by a linear impulse response dynamic element. A new nonlinear Hammerstein MAC algorithm (named NLH-MAC) is presented in detail. The simulation control results of a pH neutralization process show that NLH-MAC gives better control performance than linear MAC and the commonly used industrial nonlinear propotional plus integral plus derivative (PID) controller. Further simulation experiment demonstrates that NLH-MAC not only gives good control response, but also possesses good stability and robustness even with large modeling errors.展开更多

The proposed methodology is based on basic ideas and concepts of four key-field interrelated sciences, i.e., computing science, applied mathematics, management sciences and economic sciences. Furthermore, the fundamental scientific concepts of adaptability and uncertainty are shown to play a critical role of major importance for a (near) optimum solution of a class of complex e-business/services and strategic management problems. Two characteristic case studies, namely measuring e-business performance under certain environmental pressures and organizational constraints and describing the relationships between technology, innovation and firm performance, are considered as effective applications of the proposed adaptive algorithmic modeling approach. A theoretical time-dependent model for the evaluation of firm e-business performances is also proposed.展开更多

In this work, the exact tensorial forms of the algorithmic tangent modulus at finite strains are derived in the principal space and their corresponding matrix expressions are also presented. The algorithmic tangent modulus consists of two terms. The first term depends on a specific yield surface, while the second term is independent of the specific yield surface. The elastoplastic matrix in the principal space associated with the specific yield surface is derived by the logarithmic strains in terms of the local multiplicative decomposition. The Drucker-Prager yield function of elastoplastic material is used as a numerical example to verify the present algorithmic tangent modulus at finite strains.展开更多
摘要Platform employment relies on algorithmic management for task allocation,dynamic pricing,and behavioral monitoring,thereby exposing platform workers to unstable earnings,excessive labor intensity,and occupational safety risks.In addressing the labor risks associated with platform employment,both existing labor law and algorithmic regulation exhibit significant limitations.A complementary governance framework that combines the respective strengths of labor law and algorithmic regulation can therefore be developed under the guiding principles of procedural justice and substantive justice,thereby establishing a dual-dimensional governance model for platform employment.At the substantive level,the bottom-line protections provided by labor standards can be combined with the technical advantages of algorithmic regulation to achieve bottom-line labor protections through substantive code review aimed at limiting algorithmic power.At the procedural level,the democratic advantages of collective bargaining can be combined with the organizational advantages of algorithmic regulation to balance labor protection and flexibility in platform employment through worker autonomy and algorithmic procedural control.
摘要In platform-based employment,algorithmic management is embedded in the labor process through mechanisms such as order dispatch,pricing,evaluation,rewards and punishments,which poses interpretive pressure on the traditional determination of personal subordination centered on explicit command,fixed workplace and direct management.Starting from the traditional judgment logic of personal subordination and combining the theory of Weisungsrecht(right of instruction)in German law,this paper points out that algorithmic management does not eliminate personal subordination,but reconstructs the exercise form of the right of instruction in a technical and depersonalized manner.The determination of personal subordination in platform-based employment should shift from the identification of specific instructions to the investigation of structural domination and real autonomy,and take traditional elements such as working hours,workplace and organizational integration as supplementary or corrective factors to enhance the operability of labor relationship determination.

A new nonlinear Hammerstein MAC algorithm (named NLH-MAC) is presented in detail. The simulation control results of a pH neutralization process show that NLH-MAC gives better control performance than linear MAC and the commonly used industrial nonlinear propotional plus integral plus derivative (PID) controller. Further simulation experiment demonstrates that NLH-MAC not only gives good control response, but also possesses good stability and robustness even with large modeling errors.
摘要This paper describes an innovative adaptive algorithmic modeling approach, for solving a wide class of e-business and strategic management problems under uncertainty conditions. The proposed methodology is based on basic ideas and concepts of four key-field interrelated sciences, i.e., computing science, applied mathematics, management sciences and economic sciences. Furthermore, the fundamental scientific concepts of adaptability and uncertainty are shown to play a critical role of major importance for a (near) optimum solution of a class of complex e-business/services and strategic management problems. Two characteristic case studies, namely measuring e-business performance under certain environmental pressures and organizational constraints and describing the relationships between technology, innovation and firm performance, are considered as effective applications of the proposed adaptive algorithmic modeling approach. A theoretical time-dependent model for the evaluation of firm e-business performances is also proposed.

摘要It is well recognized the convenience of converting the linearly constrained convex optimization problems to a monotone variational inequality.Recently,we have proposed a unified algorithmic framework which can guide us to construct the solution methods for solving these monotone variational inequalities.In this work,we revisit two full Jacobian decomposition of the augmented Lagrangian methods for separable convex programming which we have studied a few years ago.In particular,exploiting this framework,we are able to give a very clear and elementary proof of the convergence of these solution methods.

摘要Pascal triangles are formulated for computing the coefficients of the B-spline series representation of the compactly supported spline-wavelets with minimum support and their derivatives.It is shown that with the al- ternating signs removed,all these sequences are totally positive.On the other hand,truncations of the recipro- cal Euler-Frobenius polynomials lead to finite sequences for orthogonal wavelet decompositions.For this pur- pose,sharp estimates are given in terms of the exact reconstruction of these approximate decomposed compo- nents.

摘要The eigenface method that uses principal component analysis(PCA) has been the standard and popular method used in face recognition.This paper presents a PCA-memetic algorithm(PCA-MA) approach for feature selection.PCA has been extended by MAs where the former was used for feature extraction/dimensionality reduction and the latter exploited for feature selection.Simulations were performed over ORL and YaleB face databases using Euclidean norm as the classifier.It was found that as far as the recognition rate is concerned,PCA-MA completely outperforms the eigenface method.We compared the performance of PCA extended with genetic algorithm(PCA-GA) with our proposed PCA-MA method.The results also clearly established the supremacy of the PCA-MA method over the PCA-GA method.We further extended linear discriminant analysis(LDA) and kernel principal component analysis(KPCA) approaches with the MA and observed significant improvement in recognition rate with fewer features.This paper also compares the performance of PCA-MA,LDA-MA and KPCA-MA approaches.

摘要Analyzing rock mass seepage using the discrete fracture network(DFN)flow model poses challenges when dealing with complex fracture networks.This paper presents a novel DFN flow model that incorporates the actual connections of large-scale fractures.Notably,this model efficiently manages over 20,000 fractures without necessitating adjustments to the DFN geometry.All geometric analyses,such as identifying connected fractures,dividing the two-dimensional domain into closed loops,triangulating arbitrary loops,and refining triangular elements,are fully automated.The analysis processes are comprehensively introduced,and core algorithms,along with their pseudo-codes,are outlined and explained to assist readers in their programming endeavors.The accuracy of geometric analyses is validated through topological graphs representing the connection relationships between fractures.In practical application,the proposed model is employed to assess the water-sealing effectiveness of an underground storage cavern project.The analysis results indicate that the existing design scheme can effectively prevent the stored oil from leaking in the presence of both dense and sparse fractures.Furthermore,following extensive modification and optimization,the scale and precision of model computation suggest that the proposed model and developed codes can meet the requirements of engineering applications.

摘要The algorithmic tangent modulus at finite strains in current configuration plays an important role in the nonlinear finite element method. In this work, the exact tensorial forms of the algorithmic tangent modulus at finite strains are derived in the principal space and their corresponding matrix expressions are also presented. The algorithmic tangent modulus consists of two terms. The first term depends on a specific yield surface, while the second term is independent of the specific yield surface. The elastoplastic matrix in the principal space associated with the specific yield surface is derived by the logarithmic strains in terms of the local multiplicative decomposition. The Drucker-Prager yield function of elastoplastic material is used as a numerical example to verify the present algorithmic tangent modulus at finite strains.
