Propulsionless planar phasing of multiple satellites using deep reinforcement learning

This work creates a framework for solving highly non-linear satellite formation control problems by using model-free policy optimisation deep reinforcement learning (DRL) methods. This work considers, believed to be for the first time, DRL methods, such as advantage actor-critic method (A2C) and proximal policy optimisation (PPO), to solve the example satellite formation problem of propellantless planar phasing of multiple satellites. Three degree-of-freedom simulations, including a novel surrogate propagation model, are used to train the deep reinforcement learning agents. During training, the agents actuated their motion through cross-sectional area changes which altered the environmental accelerations acting on them. The DRL framework designed in this work successfully coordinated three spacecraft to achieve a propellantless planar phasing manoeuvre. This work has created a DRL framework that can be used to solve complex satellite formation flying problems, such as planar phasing of multiple satellites and in doing so provides key insights into achieving optimal and robust formation control using reinforcement learning.     

基于深度混合模型评分推荐

从用户-项目评分矩阵中学习用户对项目的个性化偏好,对于评分推荐来说至关重要。许多推荐方法如潜在因子模型,无法充分利用评分矩阵中的交互信息学到较好的个性化偏好而得到较差推荐效果。受深度学习中Wide and Deep模型应用于APP推荐启发,本文提出一种深度混合模型并命名为DeepHM用于评分推荐。与Wide and Deep模型相比,使用DeepWide和DNN部分重构Wide模型和Deep模型得到DeepHM,并且DeepWide和DNN部分共享交互信息输入。因此,DeepHM可以更有效地使用评分矩阵中的用户和项目的交互信息学到个性化偏好信息。DeepHM将评分推荐作为分类问题旨在提高推荐准确性。实验表明在公开的Movielens数据集上DeepHM算法相比现有的基于评分推荐模型具有更好的效果。     

Semi-supervised gear fault diagnosis using raw vibration signal based on deep learning

In aerospace industry, gears are the most common parts of a mechanical transmission system. Gear pitting faults could cause the transmission system to crash and give rise to safety disaster. It is always a challenging problem to diagnose the gear pitting condition directly through the raw signal of vibration. In this paper, a novel method named augmented deep sparse autoencoder (ADSAE) is proposed. The method can be used to diagnose the gear pitting fault with relatively few raw vibration signal data. This method is mainly based on the theory of pitting fault diagnosis and creatively combines with both data augmentation ideology and the deep sparse autoencoder algorithm for the fault diagnosis of gear wear. The effectiveness of the proposed method is validated by experiments of six types of gear pitting conditions. The results show that the ADSAE method can effectively increase the network generalization ability and robustness with very high accuracy. This method can effectively diagnose different gear pitting conditions and show the obvious trend according to the severity of gear wear faults. The results obtained by the ADSAE method proposed in this paper are compared with those obtained by other common deep learning methods. This paper provides an important insight into the field of gear fault diagnosis based on deep learning and has a potential practical application value.     

基于改进SSD的舰船目标精细化检测方法

以SSD为代表的主流深度学习方法在目标检测领域取得了显著的成绩，但由于该类方法只能以矩形框给出目标的概略位置，检测结果具有很大的背景冗余区域，特别是港口密集停泊的舰船在图像中会出现区域重叠，导致误检和漏检。针对以上问题，提出了一种具有旋转不变性的舰船目标精细化检测方法，该方法综合利用可变形卷积、可变形池化、旋转的边框回归和旋转的非极大值抑制等模块的优点，借鉴MobileNet架构对网络加速，通过学习密集区域目标的几何形变，有效预测目标的旋转角度，最终以旋转的矩形框给出目标的位置。实验结果表明，该算法可实现多类舰船目标类型区分和目标朝向判定的功能，有效地解决了实际应用中的目标精确定位定向难题，提高了自动目标识别的精确性，并满足工程应用的实时性要求。

基于函数链神经网络的深度分类器

目前的宽度学习系统（Broad learning system，BLS）通过所建立的一系列映射节点和增强节点来形成联合节点。因为联合节点与输出层的线性连接，网络权值可以用求解伪逆的方法快速求得，避免了耗时的训练过程，从而成为快速而高效的学习方法。然而在追求高精度结果的过程中，BLS对于增强节点数量的需求过于巨大，容易造成过拟合问题。为此，本文提出了基于函数链神经网络（Functional-link neural network，FLNN）的深度分类器（FLNN based deep classifier，FLNNDC），旨在提供一种更加简单却又不失精度的BLS变体结构。FLNNDC将几个轻量级的BLS子系统堆积成栈式结构，每一个轻量级的BLS子系统随机选择一部分映射节点生成增强节点，而不是全部映射节点。和原宽度结构相比，在几个主流数据集上的实验结果表明本文所提出的FLNNDC分类器具有网络结构更小且学习速度更快的优势。

Modeling irregular small bodies gravity field via extreme learning machines and Bayesian optimization

Close proximity operations around small bodies are extremely challenging due to their uncertain dynamical environment. Autonomous guidance and navigation around small bodies require fast and accurate modeling of the gravitational field for potential on-board computation. In this paper, we investigate a model-based, data-driven approach to compute and predict the gravitational acceleration around irregular small bodies. More specifically, we employ Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) theories to design, train and validate Single-Layer Feedforward Networks (SLFN) capable of learning the relationship between the spacecraft position and the gravitational acceleration. ELM-base neural networks are trained without iterative tuning therefore dramatically reducing the training time. Analysis of performance in constant density models for asteroid 25143 Itokawa and comet 67/P Churyumov-Gerasimenko show that ELM-based SLFN are able learn the desired functional relationship both globally and in selected localized areas near the surface. The latter results in a robust neural algorithm for on-board, real-time calculation of the gravity field needed for guidance and control in close-proximity operations near the asteroid surface.
