    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.137, No.2, pp. 1069-1343, 2023, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2023.028130
    Abstract Three recent breakthroughs due to AI in arts and science serve as motivation: An award winning digital image, protein folding, fast matrix multiplication. Many recent developments in artificial neural networks, particularly deep learning (DL), applied and relevant to computational mechanics (solid, fluids, finite-element technology) are reviewed in detail. Both hybrid and pure machine learning (ML) methods are discussed. Hybrid methods combine traditional PDE discretizations with ML methods either (1) to help model complex nonlinear constitutive relations, (2) to nonlinearly reduce the model order for efficient simulation (turbulence), or (3) to accelerate the simulation by predicting certain components in the traditional… More >

    Abstract With increasing global concerns about clean energy in smart grids, the detection of power quality disturbances (PQDs) caused by energy instability is becoming more and more prominent. It is well acknowledged that the PQD effects on power grid equipment are destructive and hazardous, which causes irreversible damage to underlying electrical/electronic equipment of the concerned intelligent grids. In order to ensure safe and reliable equipment implementation, appropriate PQD detection technologies must be adopted to avoid such adverse effects. This paper summarizes the newly proposed and traditional PQD detection techniques in order to give a quick start to new researchers in the… More >

    Abstract The harmonic balance (HB) method is one of the most commonly used methods for solving periodic solutions of both weakly and strongly nonlinear dynamical systems. However, it is confined to low-order approximations due to complex symbolic operations. Many variants have been developed to improve the HB method, among which the time domain HB-like methods are regarded as crucial improvements because of their fast computation and simple derivation. So far, there are two problems remaining to be addressed. i) A dozen of different versions of HB-like methods, in frequency domain or time domain or in hybrid, have been developed; unfortunately, misclassification… More >

    Abstract Harris Hawks Optimization (HHO) is a novel meta-heuristic algorithm that imitates the predation characteristics of Harris Hawk and combines Lévy flight to solve complex multidimensional problems. Nevertheless, the basic HHO algorithm still has certain limitations, including the tendency to fall into the local optima and poor convergence accuracy. Coot Bird Optimization (CBO) is another new swarm-based optimization algorithm. CBO originates from the regular and irregular motion of a bird called Coot on the water’s surface. Although the framework of CBO is slightly complicated, it has outstanding exploration potential and excellent capability to avoid falling into local optimal solutions. This paper… More >

    Abstract The real world is filled with uncertainty, vagueness, and imprecision. The concepts we meet in everyday life are vague rather than precise. In real-world situations, if a model requires that conclusions drawn from it have some bearings on reality, then two major problems immediately arise, viz. real situations are not usually crisp and deterministic; complete descriptions of real systems often require more comprehensive data than human beings could recognize simultaneously, process and understand. Conventional mathematical tools which require all inferences to be exact, are not always efficient to handle imprecisions in a wide variety of practical situations. Following the latter… More >

    Abstract In medical image segmentation task, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are difficult to capture long-range dependencies, but transformers can model the long-range dependencies effectively. However, transformers have a flexible structure and seldom assume the structural bias of input data, so it is difficult for transformers to learn positional encoding of the medical images when using fewer images for training. To solve these problems, a dual branch structure is proposed. In one branch, Mix-Feed-Forward Network (Mix-FFN) and axial attention are adopted to capture long-range dependencies and keep the translation invariance of the model.

    Abstract Nowadays, the rapid development of edge computing has driven an increasing number of deep learning applications deployed at the edge of the network, such as pedestrian and vehicle detection, to provide efficient intelligent services to mobile users. However, as the accuracy requirements continue to increase, the components of deep learning models for pedestrian and vehicle detection, such as YOLOv4, become more sophisticated and the computing resources required for model training are increasing dramatically, which in turn leads to significant challenges in achieving effective deployment on resource-constrained edge devices while ensuring the high accuracy performance. For addressing this challenge, a cloud-edge… More >

    Abstract Graduate education is the main way to train high-level innovative talents, the basic layout to cope with the global talent competition, and the important cornerstone for implementing the innovation-driven development strategy and building an innovation-driven country. Therefore, graduate education is of great remarkably to the development of national education. As an important manifestation of graduate education, the quality of a graduate thesis should receive more attention. It is conducive to promoting the quality of graduates by supervising and examining the quality of the graduate thesis. For this purpose, this work is based on text mining, expert interviews, and questionnaire surveys… More >
