Heuristic algorithms are effective methods for solving complex optimization problems. The optimal algorithm selection for a specific optimization problem is a challenging task. Fitness landscape analysis (FLA) is used to understand the optimization problem's characteristics and help select the optimal algorithm. A random walk algorithm is an essential technique for FLA in continuous search space. However, most currently proposed random walk algorithms suffer from unbalanced sampling points. This article proposes a Lévy flight-based random walk (LRW) algorithm to address this problem. The Lévy flight is used to generate the proposed random walk algorithm's variable step size and direction. Some tests show that the proposed LRW algorithm performs better in the uniformity of sampling points. Besides, the authors analyze the fitness landscape of the CEC2017 benchmark functions using the proposed LRW algorithm. The experimental results indicate that the proposed LRW algorithm can better obtain the structural features of the landscape and has better stability than several other RW algorithms.

With the rapid development of social economy, people's demand for diversified and precise goals is increasingly prominent. In the face of a specific engineering application practice, how to find a satisfactory equilibrium solution among multiple objectives has been the focus of researchers at home and abroad. Aiming at the convergence and diversity imbalance in the current high-dimensional multi-objective evolutionary algorithm based on reference points, this article suggests a constrained evolutionary algorithm based on spatial division, angle culling, and hybrid matching selection strategy. Experimental practices show that the proposed algorithm has better performance compared with other related variants on DTLZ/WFG benchmark functions and in solving the problem of electricity market price.

Smoking in public places not only causes potential harm to the health of oneself and others, but also causes hidden dangers such as fires. Therefore, for health and safety considerations, a detection model is designed based on deep learning for places where smoking is prohibited, such as airports, gas stations, and chemical warehouses, that can quickly detect and warn smoking behavior. In the model, a convolutional neural network is used to process the input frames of the video stream which are captured by the camera. After image feature extraction, feature fusion, target classification and target positioning, the position of the cigarette butt is located, and smoking behavior is determined. Common target detection algorithms are not ideal for small target objects, and the detection speed needs to be improved. A series of designed convolutional neural network modules not only reduce the amount of model calculations, speed up the deduction, and meet real-time requirements, but also improve the detection accuracy of small target objects (cigarette butts).

Semantic similarity is used extensively for understanding the context and meaning of the text data. In this paper, use of the semantic similarity in an automatic essay evaluation system is proposed. Different text embedding methods are used to compute the semantic similarity. Recent neural embedding methods including Google sentence encoder (GSE), embeddings for language models (ELMo), and global vectors (GloVe) are employed for computing the semantic similarity. Traditional methods of textual data representation such as TF-IDF and Jaccard index are also used in finding the semantic similarity. Experimental analysis of an intra-class and inter-class semantic similarity score distributions shows that the GSE outperforms other methods by accurately distinguishing essays from the same or different set/topic. Semantic similarity calculated using the GSE method is further used for finding the correlation with human rated essay scores, which shows high correlation with the human-rated scores on various essay traits.

Resources scheduling is a major challenge in cloud computing because of its ability to provide many on-demand information technology services according to needs of customers. In order to acquire the best balance between speed of operation, average response time, and integrated system utilization in the resource allocation process in cloud computing, an improved bat algorithm with time-varying wavelet perturbations was proposed. The algorithm provided a perturbation strategy of time-varying Morlet wavelet with the waving property to prevent from local optimum greatly and improve the converging speed and accuracy through the guide of individual distribution to control diversity and time-varying coefficient of wavelets. The experiments showed the proposed could significantly upgrade the overall performance and the capability of resource scheduling in cloud service compared to similar algorithms.

In order to accurately predict the concentration detection data of ion sensors for animal and plant, this paper proposes a gene expression programming (GEP) based concentration detection method. The method includes collecting ion concentration data as well as voltage timing data; preprocessing all the collected data to obtain an initial sample set; constructing a prediction model of ion concentration, which is an explicit functional relationship between voltage and the concentration of a specific ion. The Gene Expression Programming is used to train and evaluate the prediction model, and obtain a trained model. By comparing gene expression programming with other two modeling methods, it is found that the accuracy of the model established by gene expression programming has greater advantages than that established by polynomial fitting and neural network in processing animal and plant ion concentration data.

Network lifetime and energy constraint are the main issues for the applications of Wireless Sensor Network. Sensor nodes spend more energy in the communication process and affect the network lifetime. Clustering is the technique for choosing the optimal cluster head from the clusters. LEACH-C is the clustering protocol in WSN. BFA is applied in the LEACH-C protocol to form the optimal clusters. This optimization obtains more number of steps in the tumbling process and reaches the global optimum solution very slowly. This method directly affects the network lifetime. The above limitations are overcome by introducing the hybrid approach of Bacteria foraging algorithm by integrating the PSO and DE is applied in LEACH-C algorithm for finding the optimal cluster head. The best foraging solution utilized in the chemotactic behavior of the bacterium by using PSO and DE algorithm. The proposed methodology increases by 66% and 77% of the alive nodes when compared to FA and BFPSO.

Having summarized the previous research on ceramic identification and the anti-counterfeiting, the authors propose a ceramic identification system that combines computer vision algorithms with blockchain technology. The system uses irregular pores on microscopic images of ceramic surfaces as image features, and it applies the SIFT(Scale-invariant feature transform) algorithm to extract feature. The images and feature vector sets are then stored by IPFS(Inter-planetary File System). When a consumer needs to authenticate a ceramic product, it is only necessary to take a microscopic image of the specified location, and then the SIFT algorithm will compare the picture with the data stored in the IPFS network, and was previously obtained through the records on a blockchain network, the matching result then determines whether the photographed ceramic is one of those already recorded. Experimental show that the matching results can be used as a strong basis for identifying the origin of ceramic products.

Communication has become the crucial key to a success of public policy both in China and Western countries. After more than thirty years of development, China and Western countries have made fruitful achievements. We made a comparative review of policy communication studies in three aspects: general situations, topics and theoretical prospects. Firstly, the trend of policy communication research from both sides are positive, and it focuses on the new topics brought by the development of artificial intelligence. Secondly, by applying artificial intelligence technology to the research, it is concluded that scholars focus on three topics: communication mechanism, crisis communication and monetary policy communication. Thirdly, policy communication studies have provided us with rich practical materials and useful theoretical exploration, but there is still a lack of attention to Chinese advanced policy communication practices and a profound understanding of the challenges in the context of artificial intelligence which is the direction worthy of scholars striving in in the future.
