Impulsive optimal control model for the trajectory of horizontal wells
This paper presents an impulsive optimal control model for solving the optimal designing problem of the trajectory of horizontal wells. We take fully into account the effect of unknown disturbances in drilling. The optimal control problem can be converted into a nonlinear parametric optimization by integrating the state equation. We discuss here that the locally optimal solution depends in a continuous way on the parameters (disturbances) and utilize this property to propose a revised Hooke-Jeeves algorithm. The uniform design technique is incorporated into the revised Hooke-Jeeves algorithm to handle the multimodal objective function. The numerical simulation is in accordance with theoretical results. The numerical results illustrate the validity of the model and efficiency of the algorithm.

Modeling and Properties of Nonlinear Stochastic Dynamical System of Continuous Culture
The stochastic counterpart to the deterministic description of continuous fermentation with ordinary differential equation is investigated in the process of glycerol bio-dissimilation to 1,3-propanediol by Klebsiella pneumoniae. We briefly discuss the continuous fermentation process driven by three-dimensional Brownian motion and Lipschitz coefficients, which is suitable for the factual fermentation. Subsequently, we study the existence and uniqueness of solutions for the stochastic system as well as the boundedness of the Two-order Moment and the Markov property of the solution. Finally stochastic simulation is carried out under the Stochastic Euler-Maruyama method.

An Optimal Design Method for De-synchronous Circuit Based on Control Graph
De-synchronous is a very useful method to design asynchronous circuit automatically from synchronous description of circuits. This paper introduces an optimal design method based on Control Graph which is an abstract model of the de-synchronous circuit. The main purpose of this optimal design method is to reduce the extra overhead in the area of the de-synchronous circuit. The optimization algorithm takes the performance evaluation function based on the Control Graph of the de-synchronous circuit as its heuristic function. The performance evaluation function presented in this paper is a linear programming problem. In the end of this paper, the optimal method is applied to a set of benchmark circuits. The number of the local controllers in these circuits is markedly reduced by 54%, and the number of C-elements that is required to construct the handshake circuitry between local controllers is also reduced by 76.3%. So the entire area of the circuit is sharply reduced. Because this design method is directed by the performance evaluation function of the circuit, there is no penalty in performance of the de-synchronous circuit.

A semantic representation for image retrieval
Robust semantic labeling of image regions is a basic problem in representing and retrieving image/video content. We propose an SVM-MRF framework to model features and their spatial distributions, leading towards a "semantic" representation. Eigenfeatures of Gabor wavelet features and Gaussian mixture model are used for feature clustering. Since similar feature vectors in one cluster can come from several different semantic classes, SVM is applied to represent conditioned feature vector distributions within each cluster, and a Markov random field is used to model the spatial distributions of the semantic labels. A semantic layout representation is proposed to describe the semantics of the images. Experiments show that this method can improve semantic labeling and is useful in similarity search.

A Robust Closed-Loop Control Algorithm for Mean Arterial Blood Pressure Regulation
This paper presents an expert body sensor network (BSN) algorithm for autonomous control of mean arterial blood pressure using vasoactive drugs. A robust Proportional Integral Differential (PID) control algorithm based on a statistics model was designated. Extensive simulation results indicated that the light-weighted expert BSN system is robust enough against sensitivity variations and various artificial disturbances.

Layer Key Management Scheme on Wireless Sensor Networks
Wireless sensor networks are open architectures, so any potential threat can easily intercept, wiretap and counterfeit the information. Therefore, the safety of WSN is very important. Since any single key system cannot guarantee the security of the wireless sensor network for communications, this paper introduces a hierarchical key management scheme based on the different abilities of different sensor nodes in the clustered wireless sensor network. In this scheme, the nodes are distributed into several clusters, and a cluster head must be elected for each cluster. Private communication between cluster heads is realized through the encryption system based on the identity of each head while private communication between cluster nodes in a same cluster head is achieved through the random key preliminary distribution system. For cluster head node plays a pivotal role in this scheme, a trust management system should be introduced into the election of the cluster head which will exclude the malicious node from outside the cluster, thus improve the whole network security.

Active shape and depth extraction from shadow images
We present a recursive estimation scheme for determining surface shape and depth. This technique relies on the control over the way in which shadows are cast in scenes, through variation of the position of illuminant. The estimation process is based on the iterated extended Kalman filter, with a near-optimal control of the movement of the light source to reduce the sensitivity of the state estimate to the sensory noise.<<ETX>>
