“…Some initial results have been obtained. A number of the existing approaches, such as optimization-based strategies [ 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 ], compressed sensing technologies [ 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 ], and synchronization-based methods [ 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 ], are widely used to deal with unknown topology. The main idea of an optimization-based strategy is to convert the TICDN into an optimization problem and then solve the problem with various classical or evolutionary algorithms.…”
