Computation of electromagnetic fields scattered from objects with uncertain shapes using multilevel Monte Carlo method by Litvinenko, Alexander, Yucel, Abdulkadir C., Bagci, Hakan, Oppelstrup, Jesper, Michielssen, Eric, Tempone, Raul

“…The CMLMC method optimally balances statistical errors due to sampling of the parametric space and numerical errors due to the discretization of the geometry using a hierarchy of discretizations, from coarse to fine. The number of realizations of finer discretizations can be kept low, with most samples computed on coarser discretizations to minimize computational cost. …”

Soil liquefaction assessment using soft computing approaches based on capacity energy concept by Chen, Zhixiong, Li, Hongrui, Goh, Anthony Teck Chee, Wu, Chongzhi, Zhang, Wengang

“…Several liquefaction evaluation procedures and approaches have been developed relating the capacity energy to the initial soil parameters, such as the relative density, initial effective confining pressure, fine contents, and soil textural properties. In this study, based on the capacity energy database by Baziar et al. (2011), analyses have been carried out on a total of 405 previously published tests using soft computing approaches, including Ridge, Lasso & LassoCV, Random Forest, eXtreme Gradient Boost (XGBoost), and Multivariate Adaptive Regression Splines (MARS) approaches, to assess the capacity energy required to trigger liquefaction in sand and silty sands. …”

iTD3-CLN: learn to navigate in dynamic scene through Deep Reinforcement Learning by Jiang, Haoge, Esfahani, Mahdi Abolfazli, Wu, Keyu, Wan, Kong-wah, Heng, Kuan-kian, Wang, Han, Jiang, Xudong

“…In contrast to the conventional methods such as the DWA, our approach is found superior in the following ways: no need for prior knowledge of the environment and metric map, lower reliance on an accurate sensor, learning emergent behavior in dynamic scene that is intuitive, and more remarkably, able to transfer to the real robot without further fine-tuning. Our extensive studies show that in comparison to the original TD3, the proposed approach can obtain approximately 50% reduction in training to get same performance, 50% higher accumulated reward, and 30–50% increase in generalization performance when tested in unseen environments. …”
