This result extends the previous result which is done under the condition that the damping factor is zero. Because the value of damping factor affects the speed of dynamical process of transiently chaotic neural networks, this result provides more complete theoretical basis for applications. Finally, two examples by numerical simulation are given to reinforce and illustrate this result.展开更多

CVRP can be partitioned into three parts: the selection of vehicles among the available vehicles, the initial routing of the selected fleet and the routing optimization. Fuzzy C-means (FCM) can group the customers with close Euclidean distance into the same vehicle according to the principle of similar feature partition. Transiently chaotic neural network (TCNN) combines local search and global search, possessing high search efficiency. It will solve the routes to near optimality. A simple tabu search (TS) procedure can improve the routes to more optimality. The computations on benchmark problems and comparisons with other results in literatures show that the proposed algorithm is a viable and effective approach for CVRP.展开更多

The reactions are suggested to proceed through photoactivation of a transiently assembled chromophore from electron-deficient phthalimide moiety and iodide anion through an anion-π interaction in solvent cage followed by diffusion to generate solvated free radical species to react with C-H substrates. The simplicity, practicality, and broad substrate scope of this method highlight the synthetic power of photocatalysis through transiently assembled chromophore, and will hopefully inspire further developments of low cost photocatalysis based on various non-covalent interactions, which are prevalent in supramolecular chemistry and biosystems, for sustainable organic synthesis.展开更多
