Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

I invite you to submit your latest research in the area of Intelligence Computing  and  Mathematical Optimization Methods to this Special Issue “Intelligence Computing and Optimization Methods in Natural Sciences”.

This Issue deals with aspects of mathematical modeling and the development of innovative novel algorithms for the solution of various types of optimization problems in natural sciences.

Optimization problems arise in all fields in the real world and have immense importance.

Mathematical optimization methods and intelligence computing are two advanced technologies that are used in a various fields of applications. Both are applied mathematics methods to solve complex problems. Both technologies have a wide range of applications.

These techniques are necessary for creating mathematical models of physical processes and phenomena, geophysical models of geological structures, etc. Optimization method operates with detailed mathematical models and Intelligence Computing methods can be used for estimating the parameters of models from the standpoint of probability theory (including variance or noise in the specific data values).

High-quality papers that address both theoretical and practical issues in the area of optimization and Intelligence Computing, and submissions that present new theoretical results, models and algorithms, as well as new applications, real world case study are welcome.

Submitted papers should satisfy the general requirements of the Mathematics journal, with a strong focus on new analytic or numerical methods for solving challenging problems.

Potential topics include, but are not limited to, applications of numerical and continuous optimization methods, mathematical models, optimization techniques, and machine learning algorithms in natural sciences; high-performance computing for mathematical modeling, stochastic optimization, fuzzy logic, artificial neural networks and evolutionary modeling.

The problem of the interferometric phase unwrapping in radar remote sensing of Earth systems is considered. Such interferograms are widely used in the problems of creating and updating maps of the relief of the Earth’s surface in geodesy, cartography, environmental monitoring, geological, hydrological and glaciological studies, and for monitoring transport communications. Modern radar systems have ultra-high spatial resolution and a wide band, which leads to the need to unwrap large interferograms from several tens of millions of elements. The implementation of calculations by these methods requires a processing time of several days. In this paper, an effective method for equalizing the inverse vortex field for phase unwrapping is proposed, which allows solving a problem with quasi-linear computational complexity depending on the interferogram size and the number of singular points on it. To implement the method, a parallel algorithm for solving the problem on a multi-core processor using OpenMP technology was developed. Numerical experiments on radar data models were carried out to investigate the effectiveness of the algorithm depending on the size of the source data, the density of singular points and the number of processor cores.

Due to the ongoing global warming on the Earth, permafrost degradation has been extensively taking place, which poses a substantial threat to civil and industrial facilities and infrastructure elements, as well as to the utilization of natural resources in the Arctic and high-latitude regions. In order to prevent the negative consequences of permafrost thawing under the foundations of constructions, various geophysical techniques for monitoring permafrost have been proposed and applied so far: temperature, electrical, seismic and many others. We propose a cross-borehole exploration system for a high localization of target objects in the cryolithozone. A novel mathematical apparatus for three-dimensional modeling of transient electromagnetic signals by the vector finite element method has been developed. The original combination of the latter, the Sumudu integral transform and artificial neural networks makes it possible to examine spatially heterogeneous objects of the cryolithozone with a high contrast of geoelectric parameters, significantly reducing computational costs. We consider numerical simulation results of the transient electromagnetic monitoring of industrial facilities located on permafrost. The formation of a talik has been shown to significantly manifest itself in the measured electromagnetic responses, which enables timely prevention of industrial disasters and environmental catastrophes.
