Meta-heuristic algorithms in car engine design: a literature survey
Meta-heuristic algorithms are often inspired by natural phenomena, including the evolution of species in Darwinian natural selection theory, ant behaviors in biology, flock behaviors of some birds, and annealing in metallurgy. Due to their great potential in solving difficult optimization problems, meta-heuristic algorithms have found their way into automobile engine design. There are different optimization problems arising in different areas of car engine management including calibration, control system, fault diagnosis, and modeling. In this paper we review the state-of-the-art applications of different meta-heuristic algorithms in engine management systems. The review covers a wide range of research, including the application of meta-heuristic algorithms in engine calibration, optimizing engine control systems, engine fault diagnosis, and optimizing different parts of engines and modeling. The meta-heuristic algorithms reviewed in this paper include evolutionary algorithms, evolution strategy, evolutionary programming, genetic programming, differential evolution, estimation of distribution algorithm, ant colony optimization, particle swarm optimization, memetic algorithms, and artificial immune system
Higher-order Topology of Axion Insulator EuInAs
Based on first-principles calculations and symmetry analysis, we propose that
EuInAs is a long awaited axion insulator with antiferromagnetic (AFM)
long range order. Characterized by the parity-based invariant ,
the topological magneto-electric effect is quantized with in the
bulk, with a band gap as large as 0.1 eV. When the staggered magnetic moment of
the AFM phase is along axis, it's also a TCI phase. Gapless surface
states emerge on (100), (010) and (001) surfaces, protected by mirror
symmetries (nonzero mirror Chern numbers). When the magnetic moment is along
axis, the (100) and (001) surfaces are gapped. As a consequence of a
high-order topological insulator with , the one-dimensional (1D)
chiral state can exist on the hinge between those gapped surfaces. We have
calculated both the topological surface states and hinge state in different
phases of the system, respectively, which can be detected by ARPES or STM
experiments
CEO: Corpus-based Open-Domain Event Ontology Induction
Existing event-centric NLP models often only apply to the pre-defined
ontology, which significantly restricts their generalization capabilities. This
paper presents CEO, a novel Corpus-based Event Ontology induction model to
relax the restriction imposed by pre-defined event ontologies. Without direct
supervision, CEO leverages distant supervision from available summary datasets
to detect corpus-wise salient events and exploits external event knowledge to
force events within a short distance to have close embeddings. Experiments on
three popular event datasets show that the schema induced by CEO has better
coverage and higher accuracy than previous methods. Moreover, CEO is the first
event ontology induction model that can induce a hierarchical event ontology
with meaningful names on eleven open-domain corpora, making the induced schema
more trustworthy and easier to be further curated
