The identification problem of multivariable controlled autoregressive systems with measurement noise in the form of the moving average process is considered in this paper. The key is to filter the input-output data using the data filtering technique and to decompose the identification model into two subidentification models. By using the negative gradient search, an adaptive data filtering-based gradient iterative (F-GI) algorithm and an F-GI with finite measurement data are proposed for identifying the parameters of multivariable controlled autoregressive moving average systems. In the numerical example, we illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed identification methods.
With the rapid growth of large graphs, we cannot assume that graphs can still be fully loaded into memory, thus the disk-based graph operation is inevitable. In this paper, we take the shortest path discovery as an example to investigate the technique issues when leveraging existing infrastructure of relational database (RDB) in the graph data management.Based on the observation that a variety of graph search queries can be implemented by iterative operations including selecting frontier nodes from visited nodes, making expansion from the selected frontier nodes, and merging the expanded nodes into the visited ones, we introduce a relational FEM framework with three corresponding operators to implement graph search tasks in the RDB context. We show new features such as window function and merge statement introduced by recent SQL standards can not only simplify the expression but also improve the performance of the FEM framework. In addition, we propose two optimization strategies specific to shortest path discovery inside the FEM framework. First, we take a bi-directional set Dijkstra's algorithm in the path finding. The bi-directional strategy can reduce the search space, and set Dijkstra's algorithm finds the shortest path in a set-at-a-time fashion. Second, we introduce an index named SegTable to preserve the local shortest segments, and exploit SegTable to further improve the performance. The final extensive experimental results illustrate our relational approach with the optimization strategies achieves high scalability and performance.
This paper proposes a route choice analytic method that embeds cumulative prospect theory in evolutionary game theory to analyze how the drivers adjust their route choice behaviors under the influence of the traffic information. A simulated network with two alternative routes and one variable message sign is built to illustrate the analytic method. We assume that the drivers in the transportation system are bounded rational, and the traffic information they receive is incomplete. An evolutionary game model is constructed to describe the evolutionary process of the drivers' route choice decision-making behaviors. Here we conclude that the traffic information plays an important role in the route choice behavior. The driver's route decision-making process develops towards different evolutionary stable states in accordance with different transportation situations. The analysis results also demonstrate that employing cumulative prospect theory and evolutionary game theory to study the driver's route choice behavior is effective. This analytic method provides an academic support and suggestion for the traffic guidance system, and may optimize the travel efficiency to a certain extent.
Motivated by the needs such as group relationship analysis, this paper introduces a new operation on graphs, named top-k path join, which discovers the top-k simple shortest paths between two given node sets. Rather than discovering the top-k simple paths between each node pair, this paper proposes a holistic join method which answers the top-k path join by finding constrained top-k simple shortest paths between two nodes, and then devises an efficient method to handle the latter problem. Specifically, we transform the graph by encoding the precomputed shortest paths to the target node, and use the transformed graph in the candidate path searching. We show that the candidate path searching on the transformed graph not only has the same result as that on the original graph but also can be terminated much earlier with the aid of precomputed results. We also discuss two other optimization strategies, including considering the join constraint in the candidate path generation as early as possible, and pruning search space in each candidate path generation with an adaptively determined threshold. The final extensive experimental results also show that our method offers a significant performance improvement over existing ones.
In transportation planning works, critical links identification is helpful to evaluate the vulnerable parts of the designed network schemes. A new capacity-based network robustness index is presented for identifying critical links and evaluating the transportation system performance. It uses the change of the total network capacity as an evaluation measure. The advanced practical network capacity model is employed to estimate the throughput of transportation system. A sensitivity analysis based algorithm is also developed to solve the practical capacity model efficiently. The capacity-based network robustness index identifies the links which play critical roles in the transportation capacity of the whole network. The capacity-based network robustness index is an effective supplementary to the existing network evaluation indices. The experiments demonstrate the differences between the capacity-based network robustness index and the efficiencybased network robustness index. The capacity-based network robustness index can be used as a practical measure in the situations where the network robustness index is not significant.
