Threats and civil–military relations: explaining Singapore’s “trickle down” military innovation

This article explains why Singapore, despite its small size and semi-authoritarian regime, retains one of the best military forces in the Indo-Pacific. It unpacks Singapore’s ability to continuously innovate since the 1960s – technologically, organizationally, and conceptually – and even recently joined the Revolution in Military Affairs bandwagon. Drawing from the broader military innovation studies literature, this article argues evolutionary peacetime military innovation is more likely to occur in a state with a unified civil–military relation and whose military faces a high-level diverse set of threats. This argument explains how the civil–military fusion under the People’s Action Party-led government since Singapore’s founding moment has been providing coherent and consistent strategic guidance, political support, and financial capital, allowing the Singapore Armed Forces to continuously innovate in response to high levels and diversity of threats.     

The Millenials’ war: dilemmas of network dependency in today’s military

This work is about how the United States military has become dependent on networked technology. As arguably the largest contributor to national security, it has become so dependent that its chief doctrine integrates networked technology into nearly every specialty, with particularly intense focus on Network Centric Warfare. As the military’s old guard is replaced by the highly technical Millenial Generation, there is cause to pause when assuming this techno-acuity brings nothing but advantage and success. Vulnerabilities stemming from such extensive dependence offer opportunities for exploitation that have not gone unnoticed. The first step to moving forward from this point is to fully understand the extent to which the military has become dependent on computer networks. It might be the Millenials’ war today, but it would be quite unwise for the United States military to think about it and fight it in a purely Millenial way.

Adaptive random search for continuous simulation optimization

We present, analyze, and compare three random search methods for solving stochastic optimization problems with uncountable feasible regions. Our adaptive search with resampling (ASR) approach is a framework for designing provably convergent algorithms that are adaptive and may consequently involve local search. The deterministic and stochastic shrinking ball (DSB and SSB) approaches are also convergent, but they are based on pure random search with the only difference being the estimator of the optimal solution [the DSB method was originally proposed and analyzed by Baumert and Smith]. The three methods use different techniques to reduce the effects of noise in the estimated objective function values. Our ASR method achieves this goal through resampling of already sampled points, whereas the DSB and SSB approaches address it by averaging observations in balls that shrink with time. We present conditions under which the three methods are convergent, both in probability and almost surely, and provide a limited computational study aimed at comparing the methods. Although further investigation is needed, our numerical results suggest that the ASR approach is promising, especially for difficult problems where the probability of identifying good solutions using pure random search is small. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

宽带单脉冲雷达实测数据三维成像的平面视觉形态表示

针对宽带单脉冲雷达实测数据三维成像结果难以直观表示的问题,研究了平面视觉形态表示方法。所谓平面视觉形态,是指用设想的人眼沿着雷达波束方向观测得到的目标结构向适当平面的投影。为获得波束依赖平面视觉形态表示,给出了从实测数据中计算雷达波束方向的方法并从目标尺寸准确估计的角度分析了获取雷达波束方向的必要性,在确定波束方向的基础上,根据投影平面确定新的坐标系,并给出了从雷达观测坐标系到新坐标系的坐标旋转方法。给出了某民航飞机实测数据三维成像处理结果在雷达观测坐标系中的投影表示和新坐标系中的平面视觉形态表示,通过两种表示的对比分析,显示了平面视觉形态表示对特征提取的价值。     

论在高校后勤工作中如何开展大学生的思想政治教育

高等学校是开展大学生思想政治教育的主战场,作为与在校大学生日常学习、生活息息相关的后勤服务,它虽然不具有对大学生行使教书育人的直接责任,但它的每一项工作都和大学生的生活及成长有着十分密切的关系,它会多方面间接地为大学生的综合素质形成发生重要的作用。笔者以石河子大学为例,通过调查研究,分析了当前我校后勤服务在大学生思想政治教育中存在的问题,并针对存在问题提出了相应的对策。
