IMPLEMENTATION OF CONVENTIONAL NEURAL NETWORKS ON EMBEDDED DEVICES WITH A LIMITED COMPUTING RESOURCE
V.V. Kovalev, N.E. Sergeev2022-01-31Abstract ▼Large amounts of video data captured by sensor sensors in various spectral ranges, the significant
size of convolutional neural network architectures create problems with the implementation of
neural network algorithms on peripheral devices due to significant limitations of computing resources
on embedded computing devices. The article discusses the use of algorithms for automatic search and
pattern recognition based on machine learning methods, implemented on embedded devices with a
computing resource Graphics Processing Unit. Detection convolutional neural networks «You Only
Look Once V3» and «You Only Look Once V3-Tiny» are used as a search and pattern recognition algorithm,
which are implemented on embedded computing devices of the NVIDIA Jetson line, located in
different price ranges and with different computing resources ... Also, in the work, the estimates ofalgorithms on embedded devices are experimentally calculated for such indicators as power consumption,
forward passage time of a convolutional neural network, and detection accuracy.
On the basis of solutions implemented, both at the hardware level and in software, presented by
NVIDIA, it becomes possible to use deep neural network algorithms based on the convolution
operation in real time. Computational optimization methods offered by NVIDIA are considered.
Experimental studies of the influence of computations with reduced accuracy on the speed and
accuracy of object detection in images of the investigated architectures of convolutional neural
networks, which were previously trained on a sample of images consisting of the PASCAL VOC
2007 and PASCAL VOC 2012 datasets, have been carried out. -
THE ADJACENCY MATRIX RECONSTRUCTION ALGORITHM FOR CAUSAL GRAPH MODELS IN THE ABSENCE OF OBSERVABLE VARIABLES
A. N. Tselykh , V.S. Vasilev, L. A. Tselykh2021-11-14Abstract ▼The paper deals with the problem of modeling complex systems in the absence of observable
variables. To solve this problem, it is proposed to use causal graph models. The class of causal
models considered here is defined as non-stochastic causal models with unobservable variables.
These models are presented in the form of a directed graph, created on the basis of human mental
representations. In this case, on the arcs, causality is expressed in the form of some marks with a
sign that determines the direction of change in the state of the system. The considered causal models
include heterogeneous, complex and qualitative types of variables that illustrate the nonnumerical
nature of nodes and links and, as a consequence, the absence and impossibility of obtaining
time series data. In the absence of observable variables and the impossibility of conducting
experiments, the problem of reconstructing the adjacency matrix of the causal graph model becomes
much more complicated. It is required to obtain a model with a certain spectral decomposition
that implements the main function of the modeled system. Based on this concept, a new method
for reconstructing the adjacency matrix is proposed, implemented on the basis of the corresponding
causal propagation matrix or transmission matrix. The idea is to use combinatorial optimization
based on spectral graph theory to generate data from a qualitative non-stochastic causal
model and reconstruct an adjacency matrix using that data. In this case, the eigenvectors are
identified as key objectives of the matrix reconstruction process, which postulates a fundamental
approach based on the spectral properties of the graph. The results of computational experiments
on solving the problem of reconstructing the adjacency matrix for causal graph models in the absence
of observable variables using the developed algorithm have shown that the algorithm effectively
reconstructs matrices from the given parameters with admissible similarity indices. The
convergence of the approximation to the solution of the matrix reconstruction algorithm is proved
no slower than with the speed of a geometric progression. From a technical point of view, the
advantage of the algorithm is the implementation of a tool for automatic adjustment of the regularization
parameter, suitable for users without prior mathematical knowledge. -
ALGORITHM OF EFFECTIVE CONTROLS FOR NONSTOCHASTIC CAUSAL MODELS IN THE ABSENCE OF OBSERVABLE VARIABLES FOR SYSTEMS OF DECISION MAKING CONTROL
A.N. Tselykh, V.S. Vasilev , L.A. Tselykh2021-11-14Abstract ▼The paper deals with the problem of reproducing the decision-making process by a person under
conditions of uncertainty and incompleteness of the initial data. The decision-maker relies on his
belief system, which includes a shared vision of the system in relation to which the decision is being
made. The system is presented in the form of a causal model created on the basis of human mental
representations. These models are directed graphs, on the arcs of which the causal relationship is
expressed in the form of labels with a sign that determines the direction of change in the state of the
system. The vertices of this directed graph are high-level abstraction concepts. This graph simulates
the functioning of a real system. Thus, we investigate the problem of predicting and controlling human
actions based on non-stochastic causal models in the absence of observable variables for use in
decision support systems and expert systems. Decision-making is considered from the point of view of
the choice of objects of application of managerial influences - the factors of the model. In this study,
we show that the application of the proposed algorithm can facilitate decision-making regarding the
choice of control actions that support the achievement of the tactical and strategic goals of the decision
maker. It should be noted that the algorithm implements an automatic selection of the regularization
parameter, which makes the development and application of the proposed algorithm available
to users who do not have sufficient mathematical training. The convergence of the sequence of Lagrange
multipliers of an effective control algorithm is proved. The theorem on resonance in a nonstochastic
causal mod-el, represented by a directed graph, which is determined by the range of admissible
values of the damping coefficient in the control model, is proved. It is expected that the introduction
of this tool into decision support systems will in-crease the reliability of decisions regarding
the operation of the system as a whole. The choice of control actions using the proposed algorithm
has high efficiency and productivity. Thus, the results presented in the study can be useful for
developing applications in intelligent systems. -
METAHEURISTIC OPTIMIZATION METHOD BASED ON THE STEM CELL BEHAVIOR MODEL
Y. V. Danilchenko , V.I. Danilchenko, V.M. Kureichik2022-05-26Abstract ▼The paper discusses optimization methods that are based on processes occurring in nature. Such
methods have become increasingly used to solve complex problems. However, such methods have some
drawbacks, which stimulates the development of new and more advanced optimization methods. Solving
NP complete problems requires optimal methods that will meet all design requirements, so there is a
need to develop new and more advanced methods for solving this class of problems. As such a method,
the authors propose an optimization method based on a model of the behavior of stem cells in the natural
environment. The conducted studies of the proposed method provide solutions that can overcome
many of the shortcomings of standard optimization approaches, such as getting into the local optimum
or low convergence rate of the algorithm based on the method under consideration. The purpose of this
work is to develop an optimization method and an algorithm based on it for solving a complex objective
function. The scientific novelty lies in the development of an optimization method based on the stem cell
behavior model for solving NP complete problems. The aim of the work is to create conditions for theoptimal search for a solution to complex functions by applying the search method and, based on it, an
algorithm for the behavior of stem cells. The practical value of the work lies in the development of a new
metaheuristic optimization method for the efficient solution of NP complete problems. Also in the work,
a comparative analysis with well-known competitors was carried out. The main difference of the proposed
method from other known methods is the use of a new approach of bioinspired search based on
the behavior of stem cells, which, as shown by practical comparison, has an advantage over known
analogues. The results of a practical comparison of methods and algorithms based on them showed the
advantages of the approach proposed in the work on known test functions. After analyzing the problem
of creating methods, algorithms and software for solving NP complete problems, we can conclude that
the development of such approaches is currently an urgent task. -
THE USE OF DISTRIBUTIVE SEMANTICS IN THE IDENTIFICATION OF SIGNIFICANT COMBINATIONS OF TITLES OF SEVERAL TEXT COLLECTIONS IN THE FORMALIZATION OF LINGUISTIC EXPERT INFORMATION
V.I. Danilchenko, V.M. Kureichik2022-08-09Abstract ▼The paper discusses methods of forming special models for the representation of various sets
of knowledge in various information systems. The work is devoted to the application of distributive
semantics in the identification of significant combinations in one subject area (PRO) within the
framework of the formalization of linguistic expert information (LEI). The paper applies an approach
to the formalization of LEI based on a set of analytical methods, where linear algebra is used as
models. This approach makes it possible to initialize the procedure for the automatic formation of
hierarchical architectures of LEI or dendrograms when identifying significant combinations of titles
of several collections of texts. The scientific novelty lies in the proposed analytical approach using
distributive semantics in identifying significant combinations of titles of several collections of texts,
which allows for the analysis and processing of linguistic expert information. A distinctive characteristic
of the proposed approach is the ability to formalize the ABM "Global Optimization Methods"
based on the synthesis of various already existing hierarchies of the ABM under consideration. The
paper aims to create conditions for the formalization of the LEI by applying distributive semantics
when identifying significant combinations of titles of several collections. The practical value of the
work lies in the development of a new approach to the formalization of LEI, taking into account distributive
semantics when identifying significant combinations of titles of several collections of texts.
The ontology in owl format "Methods of global optimization" in the program "Protege" is also built
in the work. The ontology is built on the basis of related data about. The ontology constructed in this
work complements the search structure within the framework of the considered PRO and can be
supplemented and developed in the future. -

V.I. Danilchenko , V.V. Bova , М. М. Semenova , S.V. Ignateva , М. B. Shayliev2026-02-27Abstract ▼This article examines one of the most important combinatorial optimization problems – three-dimensional packaging. Optimizing three-dimensional packaging reduces costs and improves logistics efficiency, making it relevant for industry. This paper analyzes classical approaches such as greedy algorithms and dynamic programming, as well as widely used methods, including evolutionary algorithms and local search. An analysis of existing methods, including greedy search, dynamic programming, evolutionary algorithms, and local search, revealed their key characteristics and identified suitable areas of application. In the context of this analysis, an overview of the key methods that dominated during certain historical periods is presented. The analysis includes consideration of the application conditions of various methods, their effectiveness for specific types of problems, as well as their advantages and limitations.
A multi-level search algorithm is presented that combines the advantages of traditional and modern optimization methods. This multi-level algorithm improves the accuracy of the packaging problem solution through dynamic parameter adjustment. A software package for solving the three-dimensional packaging optimization problem using bioinspired algorithms has been developed. A computational experiment was conducted on test examples (benchmarks). The packing quality obtained using the developed combined bioinspired algorithm is, on average, 7% higher than the packing results obtained using known algorithms, while the solution time is 7% to 25% shorter, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed approach. A series of tests and experiments allowed us to refine theoretical estimates of the time complexity of packing algorithms. In the best case, the time complexity of the algorithms is O(n²), and in the worst case, O(n³). -
CLASSIFICATION AND ANALYSIS OF EVOLUTIONARY METHODS OF EVA BLOCK LAYOUT
Y.V. Danilchenko, V.I. Danilchenko, V. M. Kureichik2020-07-20Abstract ▼Currently, there is a large increase in the need for the design and development of radioelectronic
devices. This is due to increasing requirements for radio-electronic systems, as well as
the emergence of new generations of semiconductor devices. In this regard, there is a need to develop
new tools for automated layout of EVA blocks. There are a number of problems that complicate
the actual representation of knowledge in CAD and are probably solvable at the current level
of cognitive science development. The problem of stereotyping and the problem of coarsening are
interrelated and need to create hybrid models of representation. The paper deals with the problem
of solving the problem of EVA block layout in the design of radio-electronic equipment. The purpose
of this work is to find ways to optimize the planning of EVA block layout using a genetic
algorithm. The relevance of the work is that the genetic algorithm can improve the quality of layout
planning. These algorithms allow you to improve the quality and speed of layout planning. The
scientific novelty lies in the search and analysis of effective methods for composing EVA blocks
using genetic algorithms. The main difference from the known comparisons is in the analysis of
new promising algorithms for composing EVA blocks. Result of work. The paper shows the disadvantages
of traditional algorithms for searching for a suboptimal EVA plan. Descriptions of modern
models of evolutionary and other calculations are given. Genetic algorithms have a number of
important advantages – adaptability to a changing environment, the evolutionary approach makes
it possible to analyze, Supplement and change the knowledge base depending on changing conditions,
as well as quickly create optimal solutions. If you apply genetic algorithms and preprocessing
heuristics to provide optimal initial solutions, you can achieve more productive use of
algorithms. Known genetic algorithms converge quickly, but they lose population diversity, which
affects the quality of the solution. To balance data, the solution is corrected using efficient operators
or stable mutation. -
HYBRID BIOINSPIRED ALGORITHM FOR ONTOLOGIES MAPPING IN THE TASKS OF EXTRACTION AND KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT
D.Y. Kravchenko, Y.A. Kravchenko, V. V. Markov2020-07-20Abstract ▼The article is devoted to solving the problem of mapping ontological models in the processes
of extracting and knowledge management. The relevance and significance of this task are due to
the need to maintain reliability and eliminate redundancy of knowledge during the integration
(unification) of various origins structured information sources. The proximity and consistency of
the conceptual semantics of the combined resource during the mapping is the main criterion for
the effectiveness of the proposed solutions. The article considers the problems of choosing appropriate
solution approaches that preserve semantics when displaying concepts. The strategy of
choosing bio-inspired modeling is substantiated. The aspects of the effectiveness of various decentralized
bio-inspired methods are analyzed. The reasons for the need for hybridization are identified.
The paper proposes to solve the problem of mapping ontological models using a bio-inspired
algorithm based on hybridization of bacterial and cuckoo search algorithms optimization mechanisms.
The hybridization of these algorithms allowed us to combine their main advantages: a consistent
bacterial search that provides a detailed study of local areas, and a significant number of
the cuckoo agent during the implementation global movements of Levy flights. To evaluate the
effectiveness of the proposed hybrid bio-inspired algorithm, a software product was developed and
experiments were performed on the mapping of different sizes ontologies. Each concept of any
ontology has a certain set of attributes, which is a semantic vector of attributes. The degree of the
semantic vectors similarity for the compared concepts of displayed ontologies is a criterion for
their integration. To improve the quality of the display process, a new encoding of solutions has
been introduced. The quantitative estimates obtained demonstrate time savings in solving problems
of relatively large dimension (from 500,000 ontograph vertices) of at least 13 %. The time
complexity of the developed hybrid algorithm is O (n 2). The described studies have a high level of
theoretical and practical significance and are directly related to the solution of classical problems
of artificial intelligence aimed at finding hidden dependencies and patterns on a multitude of
knowledge elements. -
IMPLICIT THREATS IDENTIFICATION BASED ON ANALYSIS OF USER ACTIVITY ON THE INTERNET SPACE
V. V. Bova , D. Y. Zaporozhets, Y.A. Kravchenko , E. V. Kuliev , V. V. Kureichik , N. A. Lyz2020-10-11Abstract ▼The article is devoted to the problem of identifying implicit information threats of a user's
search activity in the internet space based on an analysis of his activity in the course of this interaction.
The use of knowledge stored in the Internet space for the implementation of criminal intentions
poses a threat to the whole society. Identifying malicious intent in the users’ actions of the
global information network is not always a trivial task. The proven technologies for analyzing the
context of user interests fail in the case of cautious and competent actions of attackers who do not
explicitly demonstrate the goal they are pursuing. The paper analyzes the threats associated with
certain scenarios for the implementation of search procedures that manifest themselves in search
activities. Criteria of inefficient and effective search scenarios estimation are described. Among
the signs indicating the possibility of a threat, the following main ones are highlighted: avoiding
solving the problem in aimless navigation or attractive resources, superficial search, lack of
meaningful immersion in solving the search problem, and chaotic actions during the search.
To determine the presence of adverse signs, a system of indicators is built. The features of an effective
scenario for organizing a search in the Internet space are formulated, options for the presence
of implicit threats for a similar situation are described.An approach for identification the
described threats is presented taking into account the specified criteria for evaluating various
scenarios of user behavior in the global information space. A machine learning algorithm has
been developed to identify problem scenarios by comparing with key behavioral patterns. The
software implementation of the subsystem for identifying information threats has been created,
experimental studies have been conducted to confirm the effectiveness of the subsystem. Experimental
studies were carried out on the basis of processing open data from social networks, as well
as using analysis of user search activity in the university corporate information environment.
