Using an Artificial Physarum polycephalum Colony for Threshold Image Segmentation

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Traditional artificial intelligence algorithms are prone to falling into local optima when solving threshold segmentation problems. Here, a novel artificial Physarum polycephalum colony algorithm is proposed to help us solve the difficult problem. First,

Diet and mitonuclear haplotype interactions affect growth rate in a slime mould

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2023
Trait expression in metazoans is strongly influenced by the balance of macronutrients (i.e. protein, carbohydrate and fat) in the diet. At the same time, an individual's genetic background seems to regulate the magnitude of phenotypic response to a ...

Optimization of geometric parameters of hydraulic turbine runner in turbine mode based on ISMA and BPNN

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 11, Issue 11, Page 4155-4167, November 2023., 2023
A nonlinear model is constructed based on the BP neural network, with the geometric parameters of the runner as input and the water head or efficiency of the hydraulic turbine in the hydraulic turbine mode as output. Abstract The hydraulic turbine in turbine mode (TMHT) has significant advantages in residual energy recovery, but rapid optimization of ...

Mean Field Theory of Self‐Organizing Memristive Connectomes

open access: yesAnnalen der Physik, Volume 535, Issue 8, August 2023., 2023
A novel mean field theory is developed to study the electrical behavior of nanowire connectomes. This framework uncovers the collective dynamics of interconnected nanowires, shedding light on the system's overall behavior. By considering individual nanowire properties and interconnectivity, it offers a comprehensive understanding of the system's ...
