Parallel frequency function-deep neural network for efficient complex broadband signal approximation

A neural network is essentially a high-dimensional complex mapping model by adjusting network weights for feature fitting. However, the spectral bias in network training leads to unbearable training epochs for fitting the high-frequency components in broadband signals. To improve the fitting efficiency of high-frequency components, the PhaseDNN was proposed recently by combining complex frequency band extraction and frequency shift techniques [Cai et al. SIAM J. SCI. COMPUT. 42, A3285 (2020)]. Our paper is devoted to an alternative candidate for fitting complex signals with high-frequency components. Here, a parallel frequency function-deep neural network (PFF-DNN) is proposed to suppress computational overhead while ensuring fitting accuracy by utilizing fast Fourier analysis of broadband signals and the spectral bias nature of neural networks. The effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed PFF-DNN method are verified based on detailed numerical experiments for six typical broadband signals.

An Efficient Gradient Projection Method for Structural Topology Optimization

This paper presents an efficient gradient projection-based method for structural topological optimization problems characterized by a nonlinear objective function which is minimized over a feasible region defined by bilateral bounds and a single linear equality constraint. The specialty of the constraints type, as well as heuristic engineering experiences are exploited to improve the scaling scheme, projection, and searching step. In detail, gradient clipping and a modified projection of searching direction under certain condition are utilized to facilitate the efficiency of the proposed method. Besides, an analytical solution is proposed to approximate this projection with negligible computation and memory costs. Furthermore, the calculation of searching steps is largely simplified. Benchmark problems, including the MBB, the force inverter mechanism, and the 3D cantilever beam are used to validate the effectiveness of the method. The proposed method is implemented in MATLAB which is open-sourced for educational usage.
