Immune multi-agent model using vaccine for cooperative air-defense system of systems for surface warship formation based on danger theory

Abstract

Aiming at the problem on cooperative air-defense of surface warship formation, this paper maps the cooperative airdefense system of systems (SoS) for surface warship formation (CASoSSWF) to the biological immune system (BIS) according to the similarity of the defense mechanism and characteristics between the CASoSSWF and the BIS, and then designs the models of components and the architecture for a monitoring agent, a regulating agent, a killer agent, a pre-warning agent and a communicating agent by making use of the theories and methods of the artificial immune system, the multi-agent system (MAS), the vaccine and the danger theory (DT). Moreover a new immune multi-agent model using vaccine based on DT (IMMUVBDT) for the cooperative air-defense SoS is advanced. The immune response and immune mechanism of the CASoSSWF are analyzed. The model has a capability of memory, evolution, commendable dynamic environment adaptability and self-learning, and embodies adequately the cooperative air-defense mechanism for the CA-SoSSWF. Therefore it shows a novel idea for the CASoSSWF which can provide conception models for a surface warship formation operation simulation system.

Air Defense Interception Plan Generation Method Based on Modified A* Optimization Algorithm

“…On the basis of depth analysis of the main factors affecting the air defense operations of missile mixed groups, Liu [4] and Wang [5] aimed at the combat effectiveness assessment of the ground-air missile mixed group, applying BP neural network technology to establish the air defense combat effectiveness evaluation index system and effectiveness evaluation model, and evaluated the combat effectiveness of the ground-air missile mixed group. In the literature, Wang [6], Chang [7] and James [8] solve the problem of insufficient speed of the optimal algorithm of allocation strategy in large-scale scenes through combining deep reinforcement learning with it and intelligently solving the problem of large-scale air defense task allocation. In the references, aiming at the problems of multiple and complex weapon target allocation constraints in current air defense operations, the traditional model cannot truly reflect the war process, and model credibility is low; a weapon target optimization allocation model based on multi-agent system theory is proposed and solved by using an improved and accelerated gradient descent algorithm.…”

A Behavior-Driven Coordination Control Framework for Target Hunting by UUV Intelligent Swarm

“…Inspired by the better performance of immune mechanisms in managing many complex system, Wang et al [26] exploited a coordinated model-inspired by Self/Non-Self defense mechanism, but it is a concept-model without mathematical and experimental verification. Whitbrook et al [27] developed an immune network integrated reinforcing learning for incorporation into behavior-based multi-agent system.…”

Threat Degree Analysis of the Multi-targets in Naval Gun

“…As for the naval gun system these days, more and more defense missions were arranged by the operational headquarters. For preventing the assault from enemy, and establishing a comprehensive defense system [4] [5] [6] , the naval force has to be the first defense system combating with enemy.…”
