Due to the excellent wind power probabilistic prediction performance, Mixture Density Network (MDN) is used in short-term wind power forecasting, but the density leakage problem the Not a Number (NaN) loss problem and the choice of hyperparameters in the MDN seriously affect the model performance. GA-TDMDN is proposed in this paper for wind power probabilistic forecasting. GA-TDMDN uses truncated distribution as kernel function to solve density leakage. For the NaN loss problem that occurs during model training, different output layer activation methods and improved loss function are used for different mixture component parameters, so that the shape of the truncated normal distribution can be better controlled. Genetic Algorithms (GA) is used to optimize key hyperparameters in the MDN structure. The experimental results show that it is feasible to use truncated distribution to solve the density leakage problem, and using the GA algorithm to optimize the model structure can improve the model performance
Computation offloading has effectively solved the problem of terminal devices computing resources limitation in hospitals by shifting the medical image diagnosis task to the edge servers for execution. Appropriate offloading strategies for diagnostic tasks are essential. However, the risk awareness of each user and the multiple expenses associated with processing tasks have been ignored in prior works. In this article, a multi-user multi-objective computation offloading for medical image diagnosis is proposed. First, the prospect theoretic utility function of each user is designed considering the delay, energy consumption, payment, and risk awareness. Second, the computation offloading problem including the above factors is defined as a distributed optimization problem, which with the goal of maximizing the utility of each user. The distributed optimization problem is then transformed into a non-cooperative game among the users. The exact potential game proves that the non-cooperative game has Nash equilibrium points. A low-complexity computation offloading algorithm based on best response dynamics finally is proposed. Detailed numerical experiments demonstrate the impact of different parameters and convergence in the algorithm on the utility function. The result shows that, compare with four benchmarks and four heuristic algorithms, the proposed algorithm in this article ensures a faster convergence speed and achieves only a 1.14% decrease in the utility value as the number of users increases.
