Van Dijk, R.E.C. (author), Zhao, X. (author), Wang, H. (author), Van Dalen, F. (author)Competitive aircraft box structures are a perfect compromise between weight and price. The conceptual design process of these structures is a typical Multidisciplinary Design and Optimization effort, normally conducted by human engineers. The iterative nature of MDO turns development into a long and costly process. Knowledge-Based Engineering...conference paper 2012

Zhao, Zhendong (author), Chen, Xiaojun (author), Xuan, Yuexin (author), Dong, Ye (author), Wang, Dakui (author), Liang, K. (author)Backdoor attack is a type of serious security threat to deep learning models. An adversary can provide users with a model trained on poisoned data to manipulate prediction behavior in test stage using a backdoor. The backdoored models behave normally on clean images, yet can be activated and output incorrect prediction if the input is stamped...conference paper 2022

Zhao, Kangqi (author), Wang, Yihui (author), Ding, Miaomiao (author), Li, Shukai (author), Quaglietta, E. (author), Meng, Lingyun (author)More and more people in big cities choose urban rail transit as the main means of public transportation. With the increasing unbalanced passenger flow in time and space, the traditional operation mode with fixed train formation (or composition) is difficult to satisfy the varying passenger demands. This paper distinguishes different train...conference paper 2022

Zhao, Xunyi (author), Wang, H. (author)In this paper, we aim to effectively suppress the spread of epidemic/information via blocking/removing a given fraction of the contacts in a temporal (time evolving) human contact network. We consider the SI (Susceptible- Infected) spreading process, on a temporal contact network to illustrate our methodology: an infected node infects a...conference paper 2021

Zhang, S. (author), Zhao, Xunyi (author), Wang, H. (author)Progress has been made in how to suppress epidemic spreading on temporal networks via blocking all contacts of targeted nodes or node pairs. In this work, we develop contact blocking strategies that remove a fraction of contacts from a temporal (time evolving) human contact network to mitigate the spread of a Susceptible-Infected-Recovered...journal article 2022

Liu, M. (author), Zhao, J. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author), Wang, M. (author)An integrated approach for optimising traffic signals and cooperative vehicle trajectories at urban intersections is proposed. The upper layer determines the optimal signals using enumeration and the lower layer optimises trajectories under each feasible signal plan. In the lower layer, platoon accelerations are optimised considering comfort...journal article 2021
