摘要Vehicle re-identification(ReID)is a challenging task in intelligent transportation,and urban surveillance systems due to its complications in camera viewpoints,vehicle scales,and environmental conditions.Recent transformer-based approaches have shown impressive performance by utilizing global dependencies,these models struggle with aspect ratio distortions and may overlook fine-grained local attributes crucial for distinguishing visually similar vehicles.We introduce a framework based on Swin Transformers that addresses these challenges by implementing three components.First,to improve feature robustness and maintain vehicle proportions,our Aspect Ratio-Aware Swin Transformer(AR-Swin)preserve the native ratio via letterbox,uses a non-square(16×8)patch-embedding stem,and keeps fixed 7×7 token windows.Second,we introduce a Dynamic Feature Fusion Network(DFFNet)that adaptively integrates global Swin features with local attribute embeddings;such as color and vehicle type enablingmore discriminative representations.Third,our Regional Attention Blocks incorporate regionalmasks into the transformer’s windowed attentionmechanism,effectively highlighting critical details like manufacturer logos or lights.On VeRi-776,we obtain 82.55 mAP,97.26 Rank-1 and 99.23 Rank-5,and on VehicleID we obtain 91.8 Rank-1 and 97.75 Rank-5.The design is drop-in for Swin backbones and emphasizes robustness without increasing architectural complexity.Code:http://gffzz188fe103f8f1460asob5n696ukv6b6upk.ffgz.tsg.suse.edu.cn/sft110/Swinvreid.

摘要This article investigates the robust current tracking control problem of three-phase grid-connected inverters with LCL filter under external disturbance by a dynamic state feedback control method.First,this paper constructs an internal model to learn the information of the states and input of the grid-connected inverter under steady state.Second,by utilizing the internal model principle,the paper turns the tracking control problem into the robust stabilization control problem based on some appropriate coordinate transformations.Then,The paper designs a dynamics state feedback control law to deal with this robust stabilization problem,and thus the solution of the robust current tracking control problem of three-phase grid-connected inverters can be obtained.This control method can ensure the asymptotic stability of the closedloop system.Finally,the paper illustrates the effectiveness of the proposed control approach through several groups of simulations,and compares it with the feedforward control method to verify the robustness of the proposed control method to uncertain parameters.

摘要The batch-to-batch variability in low-pressure die casting(LPDC),caused by inherent process parameter fluctuations,poses a significant challenge to consistent quality.However,traditional single-point optimization methods ignore parameter fluctuations.This study presents a robust design framework to overcome this limitation.First,an integrated simulation workflow was established by coupling ProCAST casting simulation with Abaqus finite element analysis to predict shrinkage pore volume and load-bearing capacity(LBC).Subsequently,a dataset was constructed from the integrated simulations,and then served to develop a surrogate model using the Extreme Gradient Boosting algorithm.Finally,robust process windows were derived via an inverse search employing the swarm intelligence algorithm.The framework is implemented with a case study on A356 aluminum-alloy wheel casting.The results showed that the surrogate model for defect regression and LBC prediction has high prediction accuracy.SHapley Additive exPlanations analysis identified the interfacial heat-transfer coefficient and half-mold temperature as the dominant factors.Three optimization algorithms,Bayesian-optimized Particle Swarm Optimization(BO-PSO),Bayesian-optimized Genetic Algorithm(BO-GA),and Logistic-Chaos Sparrow Search Algorithm(LCSSA)were evaluated.LCSSA consistently identifies robust process windows satisfying both defect-control and LBC requirements across all target levels,whereas BO-PSO exhibits premature convergence at higher targets and BO-GA yields dispersed solutions with insufficient robustness.The proposed framework provides a systematic methodology for robust process-window design in LPDC applications.
摘要Multi-modality sensor fusion has emerged as a prevailing trend in 3D object detection tasks.However,existing research predominantly emphasizes the efficient fusion of data from diverse sensors,overlooking the potential severe consequences of calibration failures.In this paper,we present an innovative analysis and prediction of scenarios that could lead to fusion algorithm failures,along with introducing remedial measures to enhance model robustness.Specifically,leveraging our predicted outcomes,we proactively generate similar hazardous scenarios during the model training phase to facilitate generalization capabilities.Subsequently,we introduce a query mechanism during data fusion to identify the appropriate fusion target in the event of miscalibration.Evaluation on the nuScenes dataset demonstrates that our approach can mitigate model instability by up to 90%,and our framework can be seamlessly adapted to other fusion algorithms.

摘要To capture the interdependencies between logistics and supply chain networks in real-world systems,this paper develops a load redistribution-based logistics-supply chain binary-coupled network(LSBCN)model.Employing a dynamic load redistribution strategy,we systematically investigate the robustness of the LSBCN under cascading failures.We evaluate network performance under both random and deliberate failures,thoroughly analyze the mechanisms of influence of capacity factor(β)and capacity index(γ)on network robustness,and design three optimization strategies:parameter optimization,critical edge protection,and redundant edge addition.Furthermore,we quantitatively examine the synergistic effects and cost-effectiveness among these strategies.The results reveal that capacity factors exert significant regulatory effects on network robustness;however,the marginal improvement diminishes beyond a critical threshold.Distinct optimal capacity parameter configurations correspond to different failure proportions.Protecting critical edges of the logistics network demonstrates superior robustness enhancement under random failures,whereas adding redundant edges proves more effective under deliberate failures.The synergistic effects between strategies exhibit strong dependence on both failure modes and proportions.Under random failures,critical edge protection should be prioritized,while under deliberate failures,redundant edge addition is preferable.These findings provide theoretical foundations and decision-making references for vulnerability assessment,collaborative optimization,and risk management in logistics-supply chain systems.

摘要This paper investigates a distributed generalized Nash equilibrium-seeking problem in stochastic dynamical systems,focusing on two key challenges:1)nonlinear coupled constraints and nonlinear dynamics,and 2)nonconvex objectives influenced by disturbances with unknown time-varying distributions.To address these challenges,a distributionally robust game framework with an exact penalty is proposed.We introduce a first-order equilibrium concept suitable for nonconvex-nonsmooth settings and ensure finite-sample guarantees.Furthermore,a distributed zeroth-order feedback algorithm is proposed to solve the problem.This algorithm utilizes gradient estimators for the objective functions and subgradient estimators for the exact penalty terms.We provide a detailed analysis of the relationship between communication errors and the dynamic energy of the system,along with an expected upper bound for the zeroth-order gradient estimation.Our findings indicate that the expectation of the time-accumulated regret grows at a sublinear rate.Furthermore,as the distribution stabilizes,we show that the empirical distribution converges with O(1)sampling complexity.
