Performance improvement of licklider transmission protocol in complex deep space networks based on parameter optimization

A reasonable parameter configuration helps improve the data transmission performance of the Licklider Transmission Protocol (LTP). Previous research has focused mainly on parameter optimization for LTP in simplified scenarios with one to two hops or multihop scenarios with a custody mechanism of the Bundle Protocol (BP). However, the research results are not applicable to communications in Complex Deep Space Networks (CDSNs) without the custody mechanism of BP that are more suitable for deep space communications with LTP. In this paper, we propose a model of file delivery time for LTP in CDSNs. Based on the model, we propose a Parameter Optimization Design Algorithm for LTP (LTP-PODA) of configuring reasonable parameters for LTP. The results show that the accuracy of the proposed model is at least 6.47% higher than that of the previously established models based on simple scenarios, and the proposed model is more suitable for CDSNs. Moreover, the LTP parameters are optimized by the LTP-PODA algorithm to obtain an optimization plan. Configuring the optimization plan for LTP improves the protocol transmission performance by at least 18.77% compared with configuring the other parameter configuration plans.     

Conditional self-attention generative adversarial network with differential evolution algorithm for imbalanced data classification

Imbalanced data classification is an important research topic in real-world applications, like fault diagnosis in an aircraft manufacturing system. The over-sampling method is often used to solve this problem. It generates samples according to the distance between minority data. However, the traditional over-sampling method may change the original data distribution, which is harmful to the classification performance. In this paper, we propose a new method called Conditional Self-Attention Generative Adversarial Network with Differential Evolution (CSAGAN-DE) for imbalanced data classification. The new method aims at improving the classification performance of minority data by enhancing the quality of the generation of minority data. In CSAGAN-DE, the minority data are fed into the self-attention generative adversarial network to approximate the data distribution and create new data for the minority class. Then, the differential evolution algorithm is employed to automatically determine the number of generated minority data for achieving a satisfactory classification performance. Several experiments are conducted to evaluate the performance of the new CSAGAN-DE method. The results show that the new method can efficiently improve the classification performance compared with other related methods.     

Topology tracking of dynamic UAV wireless networks

Wireless network is the communication foundation that supports the intelligentization of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) swarm. The topology of UAV communication network is the key to understanding and analyzing the behavior of UAV swarm, thus supporting the further prediction of UAV operations. However, the UAV swarm network topology varies over time due to the high mobility and diversified mission requirements of UAVs. Therefore, it is important but challenging to research dynamic topology inference for tracking the topology changes of the UAV network, especially in non-cooperative manner. In this paper, we study the problem of inferring UAV swarm network topology based on external observations, and propose a dynamic topology inference method. First, we establish a sensing framework for acquiring the communication behavior of the target network over time. Then, we expand the multi-dimensional dynamic Hawkes process to model the communication event sequence in a dynamic wireless network. Finally, combining the sliding time window mechanism, the maximum weighted likelihood estimation is applied to inferring the network topology. Extensive simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

为了快速侦察未知区域的地貌信息，遥感卫星可对特定区域进行扫描以获取遥感卫星影像。当卫星经过国外未知区域时，部分卫星无法针对某特定区域进行长时间的驻留扫描，本文提出一种基于条件生成对抗网络模型（Conditional Generative Adversarial Network，CGAN）进行网络训练，前期将某方法获取的区域轮廓地形信息作为CGAN网络的生成网络和鉴别网络中的条件约束信息，通过网络生成器与判别器在训练过程中互相博弈产生特定的输出集，有效地实现由单张电子轮廓图像到对应卫星遥感图像的端到端的非线性映射。本文通过原真实卫星遥感图像与生成卫星遥感图像进行四种对比误差计算，平均误差、均方误差与结构相似度均高于99%，峰值信噪比高于30 dB，生成的图像与原图像之间具备高相似度，实现了在获取坐标定位轮廓信息的先验条件下，对特定区域进行遥感卫星影像内容重建技术。     

基于极化神经网络的雷达舰船检测识别方法

相参雷达捕获的全极化海面目标距离-多普勒(RD)回波数据中，目标区域占比小、信噪比低，且海况环境与干扰种类多变，使得经典的深度神经网络在此种条件下检测识别精度较低。为此，本文提出了一种基于极化深度神经网络的全极化相参雷达海面目标检测识别算法。首先，引入极化特征提取模块挖掘目标与干扰的差异化特征;其次，通过特征金字塔网络解决小目标检测识别的问题;最后，使用级联结构进一步提升算法性能。在全极化相参雷达回波数据集上的测试结果表明:基于特征值与特征矢量的极化特征对于数据集中两类舰船目标的平均精度分别达到0.907 9与1.0，相比不采用极化特征有着显著提高。

Reinforcement learning based dynamic distributed routing scheme for mega LEO satellite networks

Recently, mega Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Satellite Network (LSN) systems have gained more and more attention due to low latency, broadband communications and global coverage for ground users. One of the primary challenges for LSN systems with inter-satellite links is the routing strategy calculation and maintenance, due to LSN constellation scale and dynamic network topology feature. In order to seek an efficient routing strategy, a Q-learning-based dynamic distributed Routing scheme for LSNs (QRLSN) is proposed in this paper. To achieve low end-to-end delay and low network traffic overhead load in LSNs, QRLSN adopts a multi-objective optimization method to find the optimal next hop for forwarding data packets. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed scheme can effectively discover the initial routing strategy and provide long-term Quality of Service (QoS) optimization during the routing maintenance process. In addition, comparison results demonstrate that QRLSN is superior to the virtual-topology-based shortest path routing algorithm.     

Quick identification of guidance law for an incoming missile using multiple-model mechanism

A guidance law parameter identification model based on Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) neural network is established. The scenario of the model is that an incoming missile (called missile) attacks a target aircraft (called aircraft) using Proportional Navigation (PN) guidance law. The parameter identification is viewed as a regression problem in this paper rather than a classification problem, which means the assumption that the parameter is in a finite set of possible results is discarded. To increase the training speed of the neural network and obtain the nonlinear mapping relationship between kinematic information and the guidance law parameter of the incoming missile, an output processing method called Multiple-Model Mechanism (MMM) is proposed. Compared with a conventional GRU neural network, the model established in this paper can deal with data of any length through an encoding layer in front of the input layer. The effectiveness of the proposed Multiple-Model Mechanism and the performance of the guidance law parameter identification model are demonstrated using numerical simulation.     

Pose matters: Pose guided graph attention network for person re-identification

Person re-Identification (reID), aiming at retrieving a person across different cameras, has been playing a more and more important role in the construction of smart city and social security. For deep-learning-based reID methods, it has been proved that using local feature together with global feature could help to give robust representation for person retrieval. Human pose information can provide the locations of human skeleton to effectively guide the network to pay more attention to these key areas, and can also help to reduce the noise distractions from background or occlusions. Based on human pose, a Pose Guided Graph Attention (PGGA) network is proposed in this paper, which is a multi-branch architecture consisting of one branch for global feature and two branches for local key-point features. A graph attention convolution layer is carefully designed to re-assign the contribution weight of each extracted local feature by modeling the similarity relations. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach on discriminative feature learning. Our model achieves the state-of-the-art performance on several mainstream evaluation datasets. A plenty of ablation studies and different kinds of comparison experiments are conducted to prove the effectiveness of this work, including the tests on occluded datasets and cross-domain datasets. Moreover, we further design supplementary tests in practical scenario to indicate the advantage of our work in real-word applications.
