Such approach mainly consists of sample allocation, evaluation, proliferation and mutation. The former two, depending on a lower bound estimate acquired, not only decide the sample size of random variable and the importance level of each evolving B cell, but also ensure that such B cell is evaluated with low computational cost; the third makes diverse B cells participate in evolution and suppresses the influence of noise; the last, which associates with the information on population diversity and fitness inheritance, creates diverse and high-affinity B cells. Under such approach, three similar immune algorithms are derived after selecting different mutation rules. The experiments, by comparison against two valuable genetic algorithms, have illustrated that these immune algorithms are competitive optimizers capable of effectively executing noisy compensation and searching for the desired optimal reliable solution.展开更多

Specifically, we prove that the convergence of the scheme is of (D(h) order in energy norm and of O(h2) order in L2 norm on general d-rectangular triangulations. Moreover, when the triangulation is uniform, the convergence rate can be of O(h2) order in energy norm, and the convergence rate in L2 norm is still of O(h2) order, which cannot be improved. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate our theoretical results.展开更多
