Abstract:

Simulated annealing (SA) algorithm is a popular intelligent optimization algorithm which has been successfully applied in many fields. Parameters’ setting is a key factor for its performance, but it is also a tedious work. To simplify parameters setting, we present a list-based simulated annealing (LBSA) algorithm to solve traveling salesman problem (TSP). LBSA algorithm uses a novel list-based cooling schedule to control the decrease of temperature. Specifically, a list of temperatures is created first, and then the maximum temperature in list is used by Metropolis acceptance criterion to decide whether to accept a candidate solution. The temperature list is adapted iteratively according to the topology of the solution space of the problem. The effectiveness and the parameter sensitivity of the list-based cooling schedule are illustrated through benchmark TSP problems. The LBSA algorithm, whose performance is robust on a wide range of parameter values, shows competitive performance compared with some other state-of-the-art algorithms.

Abstract:

The Long-Term Inflow and Structural Test (LIST) program is gathering inflow and structural response data on a modified version of the Micon 65/13 wind turbine at a test site near Bushland, Texas. Data from 491 ten-minute time data records are analyzed here to determine the dependency of fatigue and extreme loads on inflow parameters. Flap and edge bending moment ranges at a blade root are chosen as the structural response variable, z. Various parameters related to the inflow (including, for example, primary parameters such as the mean and standard deviation of the hub-height horizontal wind speed, and secondary parameters such as Reynolds stresses, vertical shear exponent, etc.) are each considered in an inflow parameter vector, x. Time series for the structural response, z, are processed in order to obtain a structural response parameter, y, where in separate statistical studies, y is taken to be either an equivalent fatigue load or an extreme load. This study describes a procedure by which the important “dependencies” of y on the various variables contained in the inflow parameter vector, x, may be determined considering all the available data. These dependencies of y on x are then recomputed using only the data with above-rated mean wind speeds (taken to be approximately 13 m/s). The procedure employed is similar to other studies, but we do not bin the data sets by wind speed since dependencies in one wind speed bin may be different from those in other bins. Also, our procedure, in sharp contrast to previous studies, examines each inflow parameter in the vector, x, in a sequential analysis, rather than by using multivariate regression. Results from the present study suggest that the primary inflow parameters have a small amount of predictive power in establishing fatigue and extreme loads. In addition, large correlations that exist between several of the secondary parameters individually and each of the primary parameters make it difficult for the secondary parameters to provide any additional explanation of turbine response once the primary parameters have been accounted for.

Abstract:

The article deals with the stage of formation of universal indicators of evaluation of biosphere compatible production on the principles of sustainable development. The concept of assessment consists in the universalisation of the assessment criteria adapted to the relevant industry in view of the environmental and economic constraints that operate in accordance with international environmental regulations. The limits of isolation of optimal solutions and algorithm of their estimation are presented. A list of economic and managerial independent factors (indicators) based on commonly accepted accounting indicators is proposed. Factors that impede the spread of best practices for sustainable production in diagnosing environmental and economic compliance are analyzed. On the basis of the analysis of impact factors, a list of coefficients and indicators that integrate the components of the socio-ecological-economic system into a single system of biosphere compatibility assessment and comprehensively characterize production is proposed.Key words: environmental and economic monitoring, sustainable development, green technology indicators, biosphere compatibility of production.

Abstract:

Abstract The components and structure of a thinned/unthinned growth and yield simulator, developed by the MSU Growth and Yield Cooperative, for planted loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) on cutover site-prepared land are generally described. Prior to the first thinning, a three-parameter Weibull diameter distribution recovery system supported on the arithmetic-mean, quadratic-mean, and minimum-stand diameters is employed. At the first thinning, or if an initial tree list is supplied as input, a parameter-free least squares adjustment, diameter moment recovery system is used to allocate mortality and diameter growth to the elements of the tree list. Because thinnings from below essentially are equivalent to heavy competition mortality, the parameter-free mortality allocation procedure is adapted for allocating thinned trees to the before-thinning tree list. Copies of a PC-compatible computer program implementing the model can be obtained by writing to the senior author. South. J. Appl. For. 16(2):70-75.

Abstract:

Abstract Road infrastructure is one component of land transportation and has an important role for the movement of people and goods and regional development. In its implementation, a minimum service standard is needed to ensure the level of service expected road users. In this study, the process of preparing minimum service standards for national roads was discussed. The preparation is carried out through several stages so as to produce a list of indicators and parameters that can be implemented for national roads in Indonesia. The list of indicators and parameters was obtained through collecting data from previous studies, regulations, best practices on the implementation of minimum service standards in other countries, as well as discussions with road operators, academics, and road users. The list of indicators and parameters is then validated by distributing questionnaires back to road operators, academics, and road users to be assessed quantitatively on the level of importance and ease of implementation. Data from respondents were then analyzed using quadrant analysis to obtain priority indicators and parameters proposed to be used in minimum service standards of national roads. Keywords: road infrastructure, national roads, minimum service standards, level of service Abstrak Infrastruktur jalan merupakan salah satu komponen dalam penyelenggaraan transportasi darat dan memiliki peranan penting untuk pergerakan orang dan barang serta pengembangan wilayah.

Abstract:

A selective, multiple-criteria method is proposed for handling constraint violations in well-defined design problems. First, the types of design problems upon which the method may apply are presented and a graph topology is adopted for representing the problem decomposition in the level of design parameter interrelations (design parameter graphs). Next, the problem of constraint violations for the design parameters is discussed. It is shown that these violations can be resolved by modifying the values of the primary design parameters and recalculating the values of the violated parameters. Any “blind” attempt of modifying the values of the primary design parameters for resolving occurring violations may, eventually, create additional violations. The proposed method guides the designer toward those primary design parameters that present the least possibility of creating more violations when their values are modified. This is achieved by applying multiple criteria and by producing a final, sorted list of primary design parameters. The designer may then choose the first element of this list to handle efficiently the violations of the design parameters. Two examples are given on a design space where constraint violations occur. Through these examples, the capability of the proposed method in helping the designer to handle constraint violation is shown. The concluding remarks, except for summarizing the potential of the method, determine its boundaries and include a reference on relative work currently under investigation.

Abstract:

Background: Early identification of people at risk for a contralateral hip fracture would be desirable to favorably influence patients’ prognosis. A recent systematic review failed to depict stringent patterns of risk parameters to be used for decision-making in clinical practice. Objective: To perform a consensus study using the Delphi method to reach an expert consensus on predictive parameters for the occurrence of a fall and a contralateral hip fracture 1 and 3 years after hip fracture. Methods: A list of potential members of the expert panel was identified based on the authors’ list of a recently conducted systematic review. Participating experts were asked to name parameters determining the probability for a fall and a contralateral hip fracture 1 and 3 years after an occurred hip fracture, separately. Additionally, we asked how those stated parameters should be measured. All mentioned parameters were compiled and sent back to the experts asking them to weight each single parameter by assigning a number between 1 (not important) and 10 (very important). The survey was conducted online using the REDCap software package. We defined expert agreement if the interquartile range of attributed weights for a parameter was ≤2. A relevant parameter had at least a median weight of 8. Results: Twelve experts from 7 countries completed the survey. Presence of fall history and mental and general health status were considered relevant irrespective of the outcome. For falling within 1 and 3 years, the number of medications and residential status were considered relevant, while for fractures within 1 and 3 years, osteoporosis management was considered important. Conclusion: Using the insights gained in this consensus study, empiric studies need to be set up assessing the prognostic value of the selected parameters.

Abstract:

The accuracy of parameter estimation plays an important role in economic and social models and experiments. Parameter resolution is the capability of an estimation algorithm to distinguish different parameters effectively under given noise level, which can be used to select appropriate algorithm for experimental or empirical data. We use a flexible distinguishing criterion and present a framework to compute the parameter resolution by bootstrap and simulation, which can be used in different models and algorithms, even for non-Gaussian noises. The parameter resolutions are computed for power law models and corresponding algorithms. For power law signal, with the increase of SNR, parameter resolution is finer; with the decrease of parameter, the resolution is finer. The standard deviation of noise and parameter resolution satisfies the linear relation; it relates to interval estimation naturally if the estimation algorithm is asymptotically normal. For power law distribution, parameter and resolution satisfy the linear relation, and experimental slope and theoretical slope tend to be consistent when significance level approaches zero. Last, we select an algorithm with finer resolution to estimate the Pareto index for the Forbes list of global rich data in recent 10 years and analyze the changes in the gap between the rich and the poor.

Abstract:

Many state-of-the-art image retrieval systems include a re-ranking step to refine the suggested initial ranking list so as to improve the retrieval accuracy. In this paper, we present a novel 2-stage k-NN re-ranking algorithm. In stage one, we generate an expanded list of candidate database images for re-ranking so that lower ranked ground truth images will be included and re-ranked. In stage two, we re-rank the list of candidate images using a confidence score which is calculated based on, rRBO, a new proposed ranking list similarity measure. In addition, we propose the rLoCATe image feature, which captures robust color and texture information on salient image patches, and shows superior performance in the image retrieval task. We evaluate the proposed re-ranking algorithm on various initial ranking lists created using both SIFT and rLoCATe on two popular benchmark datasets along with a large-scale one million distraction dataset. The results show that our proposed algorithm is not sensitive for different parameter configurations and it outperforms existing k-NN re-ranking methods.

Oil palm is one of the key industries highly observed in Malaysia, due to its high demand both whether locally or internationally. The oil extraction rate (OER) in palm oil production is used as an element to identify the performance of the mills, estates and producers. In view of this, there are specific instrument or sensor needs to be implemented at the mills especially during the reception of fresh fruit bunches (FFB) transported from the field for oil content processing. This paper aims to study and propose the use of a fruit battery-based oil palm maturity sensor to analyse the effect of the sensor to various parameters. The study utilizes a charging method with different parameters, including a moisture content test on the palm oil samples. Three types of parameters are tested along with the different grades of oil palm fruit from different bunches, such as the load resistance, charging voltage and charging time. The repeatability data of the samples are obtained with the used list of values in each parameter. The results show that the parameters tested for the unripe, under ripe and ripe samples can affect the sensor sensitivity.

Abstract:

Solving the problem of a classification model construction is presented in the form of a sequence of considered attributes and values thereof included in the Mk route from the root to the dangling vertex. Decision tree developed interpretation is presented as a pair of chromosomes (Sk, Wk). The Sk chromosome list of genes corresponds to the list of all attributes included in the Mk route in the decision tree. The Wk chromosome gene values correspond to the attribute values included in the Mk route. Unification of data structures, search space and modernization of integrable algorithms was carried out for hybridization. Hybrid algorithm operators are using the integer parameters and synthesize new integer parameter values. Method was developed to account for simultaneous attraction of the αi particle to three xi (t), x*i (t), x*(t) attractors dislocating from the xi (t) position to the xi (t + 1) position. Modified hybrid metaheuristic of the search algorithm is proposed for constructing a classification model using recombination of swarm and genetic search algorithms. The first approach uses genetic algorithm initially and then the particle swarm algorithm. The second approach uses the high-level nesting hybridization method based on combination of genetic algorithm and particle swarm algorithm. The proposed approach to constructing a modified paradigm uses chromosomes with integer parameter values in the indicated hybrid algorithm and operators, which assist chromosomes to evolve according to the rules of particle swarm and genetic search

Abstract:

In modern wireless networks deployments, each serving node needs to keep its Neighbour Cell List (NCL) constantly up to date to keep track of network changes. The time needed by each serving node to update its NCL is an important parameter of the network’s reliability and performance. An adequate estimate of such parameter enables a significant improvement of self-configuration functionalities. This paper focuses on the update time of NCLs when an approach of crowdsourced user reports is adopted. In this setting, each user periodically reports to the serving node information about the set of nodes sensed by the user itself. We show that, by mapping the local topological structure of the network onto states of increasing knowledge, a crisp mathematical framework can be obtained, which allows in turn for the use of a variety of user mobility models. Further, using a simplified mobility model we show how to obtain useful upper bounds on the expected time for a serving node to gain Full Knowledge of its local neighbourhood.

Abstract:

Context. Absorption lines of H2 and HD molecules observed at high redshift in the line of sight towards quasars are a test ground to search for variation of the proton-to-electron mass ratio μ. For this purpose, results from astronomical observations are compared with a compilation of molecular data of the highest accuracy, obtained in laboratory studies as well as in first-principles calculations. Aims. A comprehensive line list is compiled for H2 and HD absorption lines in the Lyman (B1Σu+ − X1Σg+) and Werner (C1Πu − X1Σg+) band systems up to the Lyman cutoff at 912 Å. Molecular parameters listed for each line i are the transition wavelength λi, the line oscillator strength fi, the radiative damping parameter of the excited state Γi, and the sensitivity coefficient Ki for a variation of the proton-to-electron mass ratio. Methods. The transition wavelengths λi for the H2 and HD molecules are determined by a variety of advanced high-precision spectroscopic experiments involving narrowband vacuum ultraviolet lasers, Fourier-transform spectrometers, and synchrotron radiation sources. Results for the line oscillator strengths fi, damping parameters Γi, and sensitivity coefficients Ki are obtained in theoretical quantum chemical calculations. Results. A new list of molecular data is compiled for future analyses of cold clouds of hydrogen absorbers, specifically for studies of μ-variation from quasar data. The list is applied in a refit of quasar absorption spectra of B0642–5038 and J1237+0647 yielding constraints on a variation of the proton-to-electron mass ratio Δμ/μ consistent with previous analyses.

Abstract:

The Association for the Control of Emissions in Products for Flooring Installation, Adhesives and Building Materials (GEV) organised a round-robin test in 2017. They wanted to establish a list of recommended testing laboratories on the basis of test results. 33 laboratories from twelve countries received three spiked test products, similar to flooring adhesives and a parquet lacquer. Less variation of results was observed compared to earlier round-robin tests, but the differences between the testing laboratories were still significant. This fact inspired a discussion regarding the analytical challenges. As an example, the parameter „sum of all volatile organic compounds (VOCs) without a target value“ includes the non-identified VOCs. This round-robin test showed a relative standard deviation of 100% and more for that parameter, which questions its reliability. The performance of 16 laboratories was rated as good by GEV. Currently, a list of recommended testing laboratories for GEV emissions testing comprises eleven laboratories from two countries. These laboratories performed well in this round-robin test and presented an appropriate accreditation according to ISO/IEC 17025.

Abstract:

Abstract Binary collisions of large raindrops moving with terminal fall velocity are numerically investigated using FS3D, a direct numerical simulation (DNS) code based on the “volume of fluid” method. The result of this process can be a permanent coalescence or a temporal coalescence followed by a breakup of the coalesced system into smaller-sized remnants of the original raindrops and a number of fragment droplets of different sizes. In total, 32 drop pairs are studied with sizes chosen to cover nearly completely the entire size parameter range relevant to breakup. This is an important extension of investigations performed in 1982 by Low and List, who studied 10 drop pairs only. Moreover, eccentricity has been introduced as an additional parameter controlling the collision outcome. Eccentricity is defined as the horizontal distance of the initial drops’ centers with values equal to approximately 0 for centric and 1 for grazing collisions. The main results include numerically calculated data of coalescence efficiencies and fragment size distributions with emphasis on eccentricity effects. It is shown that eccentricity largely determines the appearance of specific breakup modes and consequently the respective fragment size distributions. Comparisons are made with the main findings of Low and List. Coalescence efficiency values larger than those derived by Low and List show up for very small Weber numbers. Additionally, the existence of their definite limit value of collision kinetic energy necessary for coalescence could not be confirmed. The fragment size distributions are in some cases similar to those measured by Low and List but there are also major differences for other cases. The presented results are used for parameterizations of coalescence efficiencies and fragment size distributions as well as for calculations of stationary drop spectra shown in Part II of this study.

Full text

Abstract:

In this paper, methods are presented for designing a quadrotor attitude control system with disturbance rejection ability, wherein only one parameter needs to be tuned for each axis. The core difference between quadrotor platforms are extracted as critical gain parameters (CGPs). Reinforcement learning (RL) technology is introduced in order to automatically optimize the controlling law for quadrotors with different CGPs, and the CGPs are used to extend the RL state list. A deterministic policy gradient (DPG) algorithm that is based on an actor-critic structure in a model-free style is used as the learning algorithm. Mirror sampling and reward shaping methods are designed in order to eliminate the steady-state errors of the RL controller and accelerate the training process. Active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) is applied to reject unknown external disturbances. A set of extended state observers (ESOs) is designed to estimate the total disturbance to the roll and pitch axes. The covariance matrix adaptation evolution strategy (CMA-ES) algorithm is used to automatically tune the ESO parameters and improve the final performance. The complete controller is tested on an F550 quadrotor in both simulation and real flight environments. The quadrotor can hover and move around stably and accurately in the air, even with a severe disturbance.

Abstract:

Digital elevation models (DEMs) are considered an imperative tool for many 3D visualization applications; however, for applications related to topography, they are exploited mostly as a basic source of information. In the study of landslide susceptibility mapping, parameters or landslide conditioning factors are deduced from the information related to DEMs, especially elevation. In this paper conditioning factors related with topography are analyzed and the impact of resolution and accuracy of DEMs on these factors is discussed. Previously conducted research on landslide susceptibility mapping using these factors or parameters through exploiting different methods or models in the last two decades is reviewed, and modern trends in this field are presented in a tabulated form. Two factors or parameters are proposed for inclusion in landslide inventory list as a conditioning factor and a risk assessment parameter for future studies.

Abstract:

Sustainable development issues are currently the driving forces of many building projects. The building façade is critical for the architectural expression and has a large affect upon large parts of the building's environmental performance. This study investigates the advantages of using multidimensional computer aided modeling and simulation to produce a sustainable façade design. A first step towards green building design is to establish a list of parameters which can then be used as design criteria, e.g. environmental performance, thermal visual and acoustic comfort, etc. Computer simulation and an analysis of recent projects in Hong Kong can help to determine the performance according to these design parameters whilst environmental impacts due to energy consumption are considered to be an important design parameter, it is also important for comfort criteria to be considered.

AbstractPrograms for modeling binary star observables compute emergent intensity for given composition as it varies with local effective temperature, local gravity, and direction. With arrival of huge data sets from Gaia and other surveys, the benefits of fast, compact, and accurate computation of atmospheric radiation is likely to remain critical for the foreseeable future. Experience has shown that accurate radiative modeling is important for good parameter estimation. Here we augment the radiative treatment by Van Hamme & Wilson (2003) with a procedure by which individuals can generate the needed Legendre coefficients for arbitrary photometric bands. Resulting files can be inserted directly into the Wilson-Devinney (W-D) program without sacrificing portability or program unity, and should easily be adaptable to other binary star programs. We expect the new bandpass options to become part of the public W-D program. Limb-darkening tables will be placed at http://www.fiu.edu/~vanhamme/limdark.htm.

53 subjects, who scored high on an anxiety check list, were evaluated for their responsiveness to relaxation exercises and biofeedback. Each subject was cognitively stressed prior to the training phase by imagining anxiety-provoking situations. Analysis was done on pretraining/posttraining anxiety scores and physiological parameters (galvanic skin response, differences in finger temperature, and frontalis muscle activity). Subjects given feedback corresponding to that physiological parameter which changed the most when stressed, maximized that feedback more than subjects receiving nonrelevant or no feedback. All groups reported significant reductions in anxiety symptoms. Follow-up analysis 15 mo. later showed 76% of the subjects were still symptom-free for anxiety regardless of type of feedback received.

Abstract A number of comprehensive programs have been carried out to characterize oil refinery wastewaters with respect to specific organic and inorganic toxic chemicals. This paper provides some background on these studies which have shown that wastewater treatment systems at refinery sites are effective in reducing or removing toxic chemicals. Also presented is a discussion of analytical variability so readers can better appreciate the validity of results obtained from effluent monitoring programs. The variability associated with some chemical analyses, can be significant. Finally, a recommended approach towards routinely monitoring effluent quality and effectiveness of treatment, is presented. This approach involves the monitoring for total phenols, as a possible “surrogate” parameter, along with a “short list” of demonstration parameters.

Abstract:

Context. Interest has been growing among the scientific community with respect to the stellar parameters of M dwarfs in recent years, with potential applications ranging from galactic characterization to exoplanet detection. Aims. The main motivation for this work is to develop an alternative and objective method for deriving stellar parameters for M dwarfs using the H-band spectra provided by the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE). Methods. We took synthetic spectra generated with iSpec, Turbospectrum, MARCS model atmospheres, along with a custom line list that includes over 1 000 000 water lines, and we compared the data to APOGEE observations, with parameters that were determined through χ2 minimization. Results. We present spectroscopic parameters (Teff, [M/H], log g, vmic) for a sample of 313 M dwarfs obtained from their APOGEE H-band spectra. The generated synthetic spectra reproduce observed spectra to a high level of accuracy. The impact of the spectra normalization on the results are analyzed as well. Conclusions. We compared our output parameters with those obtained with the APOGEE Stellar Parameter and Chemical Abundances Pipeline for the same stellar spectrum and we find that the values agree within the expected uncertainties. Comparisons with other previous near-infrared and optical data from the literature are also available, with median differences within our estimated uncertainties found in most cases. Here, we explore possible reasons for these differences. The full H-band line list, the line selection for the synthesis, and the synthesized spectra are available for download, along with the calculated stellar parameters.

Abstract:

The authors have students draw Functional Requirement (FR) – Design Parameter (DP) charts for their free subject design assignments before teaching them Axiomatic Design (AD) in detail. The students cannot list all important FRs and DPs even with Zigzag thinking between FR and DP from higher level to lower; then, they tend to list FRs chronologically like flowcharts and DPs spatially like bill of material. The strategy, however, often results in different counts of FRs and DPs and a number of interferences among them. When this happens, we lead the students to carry out the thinking processes of functional integration of FRs and physical integration of DPs so they can reach a regular matrix for the design equation. Once regularization is reached, the students can apply independence axiom to improve their designs.

The affine distance symmetry set (ADSS) of a plane curve is an affinely invariant analogue of the euclidean symmetry set (SS) [7], [6]. We list all transitions on the ADSS for generic 1-parameter families of plane curves. We show that for generic convex curves the possible transitions coincide with those for the SS but for generic non-convex curves, further transitions occur which are generic in 1-parameter families of bifurcation sets, but are impossible in the euclidean case. For a non-convex curve there are also additional local forms and transitions which do not fit into the generic structure of bifurcation sets at all. We give computational and experimental details of these.

Abstract:

The CCD/Transit Instrument (CTI) is a 1.8 m, f/2.2 meridian-pointing telescope located on Kitt Peak. It has no moving parts, but utilizes two RCA charge-coupled devices (CCDs) aligned with columns in the east-west direction and operated in the “time-delay and integrate” (TDI) mode at the apparent sidereal rate to form an image of the sky as it transits (McGraw et al. 1986). The strip is 8.25 arcminutes wide north-south with length determined by the length of the night. Thus, each night the CTI surveys about 15 square degrees of the sky, or about 45 square degrees per year, to a nightly limiting magnitude of mv ≥ 20. One of the two CCDs in the focal plane always observes through a V filter while the other utilizes one of (U), B, R, or I, depending upon the sky brightness. These data are searched to find every detectable object and photometric parameters are calculated for each. These data become part of a Master List which contains the best estimate for each parameter and a History List which maintains a light curve for every detected object. The vital statistics of the project are listed in Table 1.
