Error analysis of an effective numerical scheme for a temporal multiscale plaque growth problem
In this work, we propose a simple numerical scheme based on a fast
front-tracking approach for solving a fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problem
of plaque growth in blood vessels. A rigorous error analysis is carried out for
the temporal semi-discrete scheme to show that it is first-order accurate for
all macro time step , micro time step and scale parameter
. A numerical example is presented to verify the theoretical results
and demonstrate the excellent performance of the proposed multiscale algorithm
A Fast Front-Tracking Approach and Its Analysis for a Temporal Multiscale Flow Problem with a Fractional Order Boundary Growth
This paper is concerned with a blood flow problem coupled with a slow plaque growth at the artery wall. In the model, the micro (fast) system is the Navier–Stokes equation with a periodically applied force, and the macro (slow) system is a fractional reaction equation, which is used to describe the plaque growth with memory effect. We construct an auxiliary temporal periodic problem and an effective time-average equation to approximate the original problem and analyze the approximation error of the corresponding linearized PDE (Stokes) system, where the simple front-tracking technique is used to update the slow moving boundary. An effective multiscale method is then designed based on the approximate problem and the front-tracking framework. We also present a temporal finite difference scheme with a spatial continuous finite element method and analyze its temporal discrete error. Furthermore, a fast iterative procedure is designed to find the initial value of the temporal periodic problem, and its convergence is analyzed as well. Our designed front-tracking framework and the iterative procedure for solving the temporal periodic problem make it easy to implement the multiscale method on existing PDE solving software. The numerical method is implemented by a combination of the finite element platform COMSOL Multiphysics and the mainstream software MATLAB, which significantly reduce the programming effort and easily handle the fluid-structure interaction, especially moving boundaries with more complex geometries. We present two numerical examples of ODEs and a two-dimensional Navier–Stokes system to demonstrate the effectiveness of the multiscale method. Finally, we have a numerical experiment on the plaque growth problem and discuss the physical implication of the fractional order parameter

Semantic Information Extraction for Text Data with Probability Graph
In this paper, the problem of semantic information extraction for resource
constrained text data transmission is studied. In the considered model, a
sequence of text data need to be transmitted within a communication
resource-constrained network, which only allows limited data transmission.
Thus, at the transmitter, the original text data is extracted with natural
language processing techniques. Then, the extracted semantic information is
captured in a knowledge graph. An additional probability dimension is
introduced in this graph to capture the importance of each information. This
semantic information extraction problem is posed as an optimization framework
whose goal is to extract most important semantic information for transmission.
To find an optimal solution for this problem, a Floyd's algorithm based
solution coupled with an efficient sorting mechanism is proposed. Numerical
results testify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm with regards to two
novel performance metrics including semantic uncertainty and semantic
similarity
Full-Duplex Massive MIMO Relaying Systems with Low-Resolution ADCs
International audienceThis paper considers a multipair amplify-and-forward massive MIMO relaying system with low-resolution analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) at both the relay and destinations. The channel state information (CSI) at the relay is obtained via pilot training, which is then utilized to perform simple maximum-ratio combining/maximum-ratio transmission processing by the relay. Also, it is assumed that the destinations use statistical CSI to decode the transmitted signals. Exact and approximated closed-form expressions for the achievable sum rate are presented, which enable the efficient evaluation of the impact of key system parameters on the system performance. In addition, optimal relay power allocation scheme is studied, and power scaling law is characterized. It is found that, with only low-resolution ADCs at the relay, increasing the number of relay antennas is an effective method to compensate for the rate loss caused by coarse quantization. However, it becomes ineffective to handle the detrimental effect of low-resolution ADCs at the destination. Moreover, it is shown that deploying massive relay antenna arrays can still bring significant power savings, i.e., the transmit power of each source can be cut down proportional to 1/M to maintain a constant rate, where M is the number of relay antennas
