Map building is essential to a mobile robot navigation system. Localization and path planning methods depend on map building strategies. A topological map is commonly constructed using the GVG(Generalized Voronoi Graph). The advantage of the GVG based topological map is compactness. But the GVG method have many difficulties because it consists of collision-free path. In this paper, we proposed an extended map building method, the AVG (Areal Voronoi Graph) based topological map. The AVG based topological map consists of collision-free area. This feature can improve map building, localization and path planning performance.

Spectral clustering is a powerful tool for exploratory data analysis. Many existing spectral clustering algorithms typically measure the similarity by using a Gaussian kernel function or an undirected k-nearest neighbor (kNN) graph, which cannot reveal the real clusters when the data are not well separated. In this paper, to improve the spectral clustering, we consider a robust similarity measure based on the shared nearest neighbors in a directed kNN graph. We propose two novel algorithms for spectral clustering: one based on the number of shared nearest neighbors, and one based on their closeness. The proposed algorithms are able to explore the underlying similarity relationships between data points, and are robust to datasets that are not well separated. Moreover, the proposed algorithms have only one parameter, k. We evaluated the proposed algorithms using synthetic and real-world datasets. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithms not only achieve a good level of performance, they also outperform the traditional spectral clustering algorithms.

This paper presents a methodology based on evolutionary optimization for simultaneously optimizing design parameters of controller and components of plant. Genetic programming(GP) based bond graph model generation is adopted to open-ended search for the plant. Also GP is applied to represent the controller with a unified method. The formulations of simultaneous plant-controller design optimization problem and the description of solution techniques based on bond graph are derived. A feasible solutions for a plant/controller design using the simultaneous optimization methodology is illustrated.

Aiming Graph convolutional networks (GCNs) have achieved outstanding performances on skeleton-based action recognition. However, several problems remain in existing GCN-based methods, and the problem of low recognition rate caused by single input data information has not been effectively solved. In this article, we propose a Dual-stream fusion method that combines video data and skeleton data. The two networks respectively identify skeleton data and video data and fuse the probabilities of the two outputs to achieve the effect of information fusion. Experiments on two large dataset, Kinetics and NTU-RGBC+D Human Action Dataset, illustrate that our proposed method achieves state-of-the-art. Compared with the traditional method, the recognition accuracy is improved better.

Concrete slab cracks monitoring of modern high-speed railway is important for safety and reliability of train operation, to prevent catastrophic failure, and to reduce maintenance costs. This paper proposes a curvature filtering improved crack detection method in concrete slabs of high-speed railway via graph-based anomalies calculation. Firstly, large curvature information contained in the images is extracted for the crack identification based on an improved curvature filtering method. Secondly, a graph-based model is developed for the image sub-blocks anomalies calculation where the baseline of the sub-blocks is acquired by crack-free samples. Once the anomaly is large than the acquired baseline, the sub-block is considered as crack-contained block. The experimental results indicate that the proposed method performs better than convolutional neural network method even under different curvature structures and illumination conditions. This work therefore provides a useful tool for concrete slabs crack detection and is broadly applicable to variety of infrastructure systems.

Bioinformatics is concerned with the creation and development of advanced information and computational technologies for problems in biology. It is divided into genomics, proteomics and metabolimics. In metabolimics, an organism is represented by metabolic pathway, i.e., well-displayed graph, and so the graph drawing tool to draw pathway well is necessary to understand it comprehensively. In this paper, we design an improved drawing algorithm. It enhances the readability by making use of the bipartite graph. Also it is possible to draw large graph properly by considering the facts that metabolic pathway graph is scale-free network and is composed of circular components, hierarchic components and linear components.

In this paper, we propose a new multi-scale connected coherence tree algorithm (MCCTA) by improving the connected coherence tree algorithm (CCTA). In contrast to many multi-scale image processing algorithms, MCCTA works on multiple scales space of an image and can adaptively change the parameters to capture the coarse and fine level details. Furthermore, we design a Multi-scale Connected Coherence Tree algorithm plus Spectral graph partitioning (MCCTSGP) by combining MCCTA and Spectral graph partitioning in to a new framework. Specifically, the graph nodes are the regions produced by CCTA and the image pixels, and the weights are the affinities between nodes. Then we run a spectral graph partitioning algorithm to partition on the graph which can consider the information both from pixels and regions to improve the quality of segments for providing image segmentation. The experimental results on Berkeley image database demonstrate the accuracy of our algorithm as compared to existing popular methods.

Recently A Hyper-Star Graph HS(m, k) has been introduced as a new interconnection network of new topology for parallel processing. Hyper-Star Graph has properties of hypercube and star graph, further improve the network cost of a hypercube with the same number of nodes. In this paper, we show that Hyper-Star Graph HS(m, k) is subgraph of hypercube. And we also show that regular graph, Hyper-Star Graph HS(2n, n) is node-symmetric by introduced mapping algorithm. In addition, we introduce an efficient one-to-all broadcasting scheme - takes 2n-1 times - in Hyper-Star Graph HS(2n, n) based on a spanning tree with minimum height.

With the popularity of cloud computing, many data owners outsource their graph data to the cloud for cost savings. The cloud server is not fully trusted and always wants to learn the owners' contents. To protect the information hiding, the graph data have to be encrypted before outsourcing to the cloud. The adjacent vertex search is a very common operation, many other operations can be built based on the adjacent vertex search. A boolean adjacent vertex search is an important basic operation, a query user can get the boolean search results. Due to the graph data being encrypted on the cloud server, a boolean adjacent vertex search is a quite difficult task. In this paper, we propose a solution to perform the boolean adjacent vertex search over encrypted graph data in cloud computing (BASG), which maintains the query tokens and search results privacy. We use the Gram-Schmidt algorithm and achieve the boolean expression search in our paper. We formally analyze the security of our scheme, and the query user can handily get the boolean search results by this scheme. The experiment results with a real graph data set demonstrate the efficiency of our scheme.

In recent years, semiconductor-based storage devices such as flash memory (SSDs) have been developed to high performance. In addition, a trend has been observed of optimally utilizing resources such as the central processing unit (CPU) and memory of the internal controller in the storage device according to the needs of the application. This concept is called In-Storage Processing (ISP). In a storage device equipped with the ISP function, it is possible to process part of the operation executed on the host system, thus reducing the load on the host. Moreover, since the data is processed in the storage device, the data transferred to the host are reduced. In this paper, we propose a method to optimize graph query processing by utilizing these ISP functions, and show that the optimized graph processing method improves the performance of the graph 500 benchmark by up to 20%.
