    Due to the complex floor circumstances of the outdoors and the greatly changed intensity of light, the visual navigation of a mobile robot is still a problem. A new monocular robot's navigation method based on color image processing was proposed for solving this problem. By use of the image partition of the HSI model and mathematic morphology, the trajectory was picked out and the stop-sign drawn was recognized beforehand from the image. Then the “sampling estimated” method has used to calculate the parameters of navigation. According to the experiment this method is less impacted by light and floor circumstance, less error of aberrancy, better real-time and robustness.

    Multi-objective particle swarm optimizers are often trapped in local optima, converge slowly and cost more function evaluations. Therefore, a diversity-guided two-stage MOPSO (DTSPSO) was proposed. DTSPSO dynamically selects different mutation operators according to current population diversity and divides into two stages according to its ways of selecting leaders. In addition, Pareto dominance ranking and crowding distance were used to fix the size of the external archive. Experiments were carried out on several classical benchmark functions for multi-objective optimization problems and the results show that DTSPSO is effective in solving various multi-objective optimization problems.

    Variational methods for image diffusion have been widely applied to image restoration with edge preserving or enhancement. The traditional models based only on gradients of image intensity can result in staircase effects beyond edges. So a hybrid variational image diffusion model using gradient and Laplacian was presented to reduce staircasing during image diffusion with edge preservation or enhancement. For the design of smooth terms in a diffusion model, forward and backward diffusion conditions for a one-dimension model based on first and second derivatives were first derived, which were extended to two-dimension image space. Some numerical results validated the model using a finite difference scheme.

    Information systems should flexibly and quickly adapt to variable requirements. An information system implementation method was proposed that only modifying the business rule can achieve information systems adaptability. Based on a steady business pool consisting of business granules and business objects, variable factors on the business object aggregate business granule operates were separated from information systems codes and stored as the business rule, which was implemented through the corresponding business rule engines. Therefore, information systems based on this method can flexibly and quickly adapt to variable requirements through configuring the business rule. Experiments and examples were provided to evaluate the feasibility of the proposed method.

    A multi-objective comprehensive evaluation method was proposed based on a triangular fuzzy number, which is aimed at the evaluation and selection of a financing plan for a construction enterprise. First, an index system for evaluation of the construction enterprise’s financing flan was established based on related literature. Then, the evaluation values of weights for different indexes and alternatives in terms of every index, which is in the form of a linguistic term, were transformed into triangular fuzzy numbers, and subsequently the multi-objective evaluation model was constructed by stratified evaluation and group decision theory. Finally, an illustrative example was given to demonstrate the feasibility and easiness of the use of this proposed method.

    To overcome the difficulties and the draw backs in modeling dynamic systems by traditional methods, a hybrid evolutionary modeling algorithm (HEMA) was proposed to model the Dynamic system with a system of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) whose main idea was to embed string coded idea and evolution algorithm optimize system. The model structure was shown by string structure, and the evolution algorithm was used to optimize the structure and parameters of a model. It succeeded in automating the modeling process of systems of ODEs for dynamic systems. The result of experiments indicates that, by running the HEMA, the computer can search out multiple superior ODEs models within a reasonable time. Compared with the combination of a genetic algorithm (GA), which was employed to optimize the parameters of a model, and a genetic programming method, which was employed to optimize a model structure, this algorithm, possesses advantages, such as a more intelligent modeling process, more flexible and various model structures, higher precision of fitting and predicting data.

    A new hybrid RPR model for predicting financial distress of Chinese listed corporations was put forth. The proposed model integrates the rough set(RS), the principle component analysis(PCA) method and the radial-basis function neural network(RBFN). Besides the traditional financial indicators, the cash-flow indicators were introduced, which can perfectly reflect the real-time financial situation of a corporation. In the model, the RS was applied to reduce the indicator, the PCA was employed to select indicators and reduce dimensions, the RBFN was used as a prediction tool for the corporate financial situation. Experimental results suggest that the model has high prediction accuracy and execution efficiency.

    For the bottlenecks of the Apriori algorithm, which restrict the efficiency of the Apriori algorithm, an optimized method was presented, which can take advantage of a two-dimensional array marker bit to achieve transaction reduction in association with taking advantage of order item to achieve item reduction. Reducing the times of joining as well as the number of scannings of the database will shorten the scan time. This algorithm takes advantage of order itemsets to improve the strategy, which is used to determine whether to join or not. And it removes useless transactions step by the step based on the transformation of a marker bit to reduce the number of transactions and items, while reducing the time of judgment. The results of an experiment show that the improved algorithm is more efficient.
