    The CyberKnife system relies on chest markers for body surface feature extraction, yet it suffers from incomplete information retrieval and key data loss. Moreover, respiratory-induced structural coupling leads to significant regional differences in chest-abdominal motion, where extracting features from low-correlation areas degrades model accuracy. To address this issue, we propose a significance-based feature extraction method. Firstly, a significance evaluation function is constructed to quantify regional importance using three attribute values. Kernel principal component analysis (KPCA) is then applied to reduce these three attributes to a single significance value, facilitating the selection of high-correlation regions. Secondly, the target regions undergo voxelization using Octomap, and locally linear embedding (LLE) is employed to extract low-dimensional feature vectors. These vectors serve as the foundation for constructing a high-precision correlation model between body surface and tumor motion. Experimental results demonstrate that, compared to conventional marker-based methods, the proposed approach significantly reduces correlation error while enhancing model robustness and prediction accuracy.

    A disturbance observer-based composite controller is designed to solve the trajectory tracking control problem of underactuated surface vessel, which suffers the external environmental disturbance and has bounded input constraint. Firstly, a fast finite-time disturbance observer (FTDO) is designed and its effectiveness is demonstrated by Lyapunov stability analysis. Compared with the existing FTDO, the new observer enables the estimation error to quickly converge to zero even if the initial error is far from the origin. Then, based on the fast FTDO, a new trajectory tracking composite controller is designed by using the backstepping method, which realizes that the trajectory tracking error of the surface ship control system tends to be in the neighborhood of an arbitrarily small radius of the zero point within a limited time.

    The current coal mill outlet temperature setting value in power plants has the disadvantage of not taking into account the characteristics of the changing coal quality parameters of blended coal and the uncertain influence of the pulverizing process. In order to further enhance the rational use of energy, a study on feedforward and feedback compensation modeling of the outlet temperature set value of coal mill in power plants is proposed. Firstly, to solve the problem that the characteristics of coal quality parameters of mixed coal change in the coal mill outlet temperature control system are not considered, we propose to form a feed-forward modeling of the mill outlet temperature set value by online parameter monitoring of volatile conten and moisture of mixed coal. Then, due to the existence of uncertain factors such as environment, coal type change or equipment aging in the pulverizing process, the traditional PI control accuracy is reduced. A feedback fuzzy model with triggering mechanism and discrete compensation is established based on expert domain knowledge, and solve the drawback that the actual output temperature is difficult to converge to the temperature setpoint. Finally, the proposed method is validated experimentally. The results show the feedforward and feedback modeling and control can ensure safe production in mixed coal parameters and pulverization optimization process, and enhance the rational utilization of energy.

    Introducing a novel method of self-adjusting sliding mode control using a recurrent neural network for guiding the tilt-quad-rotor UAV in both helicopter and fixed wing modes with varying tilt angles. Firstly, the dynamic model of the UAV is separated into two distinct subsystems: actuated and underactuated. Considering the parametric uncertainties and external disturbances of UAV, the equivalent control law obtained by sliding mode control approach cannot be applied to UAV. Thus, a recurrent neural network (RNN) controller is used to mimic the equivalent control. Subsequently, a new switching controller is devised to reduce control chattering and maintain system stability. Utilizing Lyapunov stability theory, both subsystems are capable of reaching the sliding surface. Finally, simulation results confirm the efficacy of the suggested method.

    In collaborative filtering algorithms based on formal concept analysis, the construction of concept lattices typically requires substantial computational resources, limiting their application to large-scale datasets. To address this challenge, the introduction of pseudo-strong concepts significantly reduces resource consumption. Additionally, by partitioning the “nearest neighbor” sets and integrating impact factors with similarity measures, the recommendation performance can be further enhanced. A collaborative filtering recommendation algorithm based on user pseudo-strong concepts is proposed. The algorithm first partitions the “nearest neighbor” user groups using the extent sets of user pseudo-strong concepts and defines corresponding similarity calculation methods for different types of users. Subsequently, it computes prediction ratings by integrating mean squared error impact factors and similarity measures. Experimental results on the MovieLens-100K dataset demonstrate that, compared to traditional user-based collaborative filtering algorithms, the proposed algorithm achieves significant improvements in evaluation metrics such as recall and 1F score, validating its effectiveness and practicality.

    For the steady-state operation problem of continuous industrial processes, a method of selecting the optimal measurement combination of global self-optimizing control based on constraint processing is proposed. The relationship between constraint and disturbance is deduced by establishing a linearized model of constraint. In order to select a subset of measurement variables, a penalty term is added to the global self-optimizing control optimization problem, and the optimal balance between the steady-state loss and the number of measurement variables was achieved by sparse column elimination of measurement variables that had little influence on the system control. On this basis, the interior point method of the penalty function is introduced to deal with the change of active constraints. Because the interference usually causes the change of active constraints in the actual industrial process, it is more realistic to consider the change of active constraints in the selection of global self-optimizing control measurement combination. The simulation results of the evaporation process verify the effectiveness of the proposed method in constraint treatment and measurement combination selection.

Firstly, at the system level, a linear converter, a function generator and an inverse kinematics solution module are designed, and the conventional CPG application is parametrically improved in a foot-oriented control manner. Secondly, in terms of details, the limit cycle of CPG is improved to enhance its adaptability to terrain. Finally, functional gaits such as linear steering are planned based on the improved CPG model, and the closed-loop control for attitude stabilization based on foot end deviation compensation is achieved. The experimental results show that the proposed method simplifies the gait control, enabling the insect-like hexapod robot to achieve linear steering on undulating terrain and maintain stable attitude.

    A distributed adaptive dynamic event-triggered bipartite consensus protocol is proposed for general linear multi-agent systems. Firstly, for each agent, the corresponding adaptive control input and dynamic event-triggered function are designed. Then, under the topological network with balanced structure, sufficient conditions to guarantee bipartite consensus of the system are given and it is proved that each adaptive coupling weight converges to a finite steady-state value. Finally, it is proved by contradiction that there is no Zeno behavior in the system under the given conditions. The numerical simulation results show that all agents can reach a final state with identical magnitude but opposite sign through cooperative and competitive interactions, which verifies the correctness of the theoretical results.

    A proportional integral differential (PID) controller parameter optimization method based on the subspace model is proposed to improve the performance of the PID controller. Firstly, the explicit expression of the controller performance with respect to the PID controller parameters is deduced by using the subspace matrix equation. Then, the subspace matrices corresponding to the process model and the random disturbance model are identified by using the closed-loop data with set point excitation, and the estimated dynamic matrix is directly applied in the calculation of the best performance to obtain the optimal controller parameter values. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by a numerical simulation and an industrial example.

    A grabbing and recycling method with visual guidance for the vehicle-mounted rotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is proposed, which provides a feasible solution for the recycle of the rotor UAV. Firstly, an improved object detection is proposed to ensure the real-time and accurate detection of UAVs on edge devices. Then, ZED2i camera is used to obtain the three-dimensional coordinates of the center point of the UAV in the point cloud data, and hand-eye calibration method is used to obtain the coordinate system transformation relationship between the camera and the end of the robotic arm. Finally, combined with the self-posture information measured by the camera sensor, the posture of the end of the robot arm is adjusted to adapt to the grabbing. The experimental results show that the proposed method can realize the real-time detection and accurate grabbing and recycling of UAVs.

    Taking a typical cold rolling production system as the research background, the batch production planning problem for high-value-added O5 products is studied. Due to the extremely high surface quality requirements of these products, the associated setup costs and inventory costs in the production process are significantly high. In light of this, a mixed-integer programming model is formulated to describe the batch production planning problem for O5 products, aiming to minimize setup costs and inventory costs with full consideration of practical technological constraints. Additionally, an effective Lagrangian relaxation approach is proposed to solve the problem. A numerical experiment composed of 400 instances is designed based on actual production data. Computational results prove that high quality solutions could be found in a reasonable time.

    The sound signals of belt conveyors contain a large amount of operating status information, so the acquisition of sound signals is crucial for the diagnosis of belt conveyor faults. The existing wavelet threshold denoising algorithms can not meet the requirement of extracting weak sound signals in strong noise background. Therefore, the conventional wavelet threshold denoising algorithm is improved, and a continuous low-error wavelet threshold function with adaptive wavelet threshold is proposed. The adaptive wavelet threshold is a segmentation function about the number of decomposition layers, which is inversely proportional to the number of decomposition layers, and can better adapt to the feature that the noise coefficient decreases with the increase of the decomposition layers when wavelet decomposition is performed. The experimental results show that the improved algorithm has stronger denoising ability and more accurate reconstruction of the original signal compared with hard threshold denoising algorithm, soft threshold denoising algorithm and wavelet modulus maximum denoising algorithm.

    The existing image inpainting models are unable to inpaint images with large-scale defects at a high quality. To solve this problem, an image inpainting model based on Transformer and the generative adversarial network is proposed. Firstly, a mask adapt input module is designed, which is used to extract the image blocks that are not masked from the input image. Secondly, the Transformer is used to extract global context information from the valid image blocks, thereby enhancing the model’s ability to inpaint missing areas. Thirdly, the fast Fourier convolution (FFC) modules are used to enhance the ability to inpainting details and eliminate artifacts in the output image. Finally, the performance of the whole network is improved under the adversarial training of discriminator network. The proposed model is used to inpaint the images of Place2 dataset. The test results show that when the mask ratio is 50%~60%, the peak signal-to-noise ratio of the inpainting results reaches 19.748 2 dB, and the structural similarity (SSIM) reaches 0.714 7.

    In order to improve the intelligent decision-making ability of the multi-agent system, a multi-agent reinforcement learning algorithm based on prioritized value network is proposed, the disadvantages of experience replay of multi-agent reinforcement learning and the problems of emphasizing action value and ignoring state value in agent decision-making are solved.

Secondly, the value advantage network is introduced into the value network of the agent to compare the information of state value and action advantage, which makes the agent learn the dominant action fast. The experimental results of multiple collaborative scenarios show that the algorithm can improve the learning and cooperation quality of the multi-agent system, so that the agent can make decisions faster and better, and complete the given task.
