Abstract:
This thesis describes how I have researched and developed new methods for the prediction of rock physical properties using genetic algorithms and fuzzy logic (GAFL).  These techniques are improvements on conventional methods providing two original but dissimilar tools for formation evaluation and reservoir characterisation. The premise behind the use of fuzzy logic in this context is that a reservoir can be broken down into several lithotypes, each having characteristic statistical distributions for electrical log values.  Fuzzy logic attempt to uncover the relationships between these distributions.  Genetic algorithms use a feedback technique that assumes a continuous functional relationship between the electrical log values and rock properties, generating and testing equations that fit predicted and observed responses.  Complex non-linear equations are “evolved” until the best fit is obtained.  Genetic algorithms provide the functional form of the equation as well as the constant parameters of the relationship. I have modified conventional GAFL techniques so that they can be more precisely calibrated and applied to geoscience problems more successfully.  This research analysed the characteristics of large data sets from several North Sea and Middle Eastern fields, and led to the design of software that automatically calibrates GAFL in a way that is less sensitive to noise and data outliers.  I describe the applications of these new techniques to permeability, litho-facies, porosity and shear velocity prediction;  the repair of poor electrical logs and the modelling of shaly sand equations. Permeability governs the movement of fluids through reservoir rocks and is therefore a critical input into reservoir models.  Permeability estimation is extremely challenging, as it is difficult to measure directly using current sub-surface logging technology.  GAFL was applied to predict permeability in the Northern North Sea oil fields.  The newly developed software provides an important and visual indication of the uncertainty associated with the predicted permeabilities.

Abstract:
(Uncorrected OCR) Abstract of thesis entitled Improving the Performance of Lifts Using Artificial Intelligence Techniques submitted by Wong King Sau for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Hong Kong in August 2003 An elevator group control system manages multiple elevators to serve hall calls in a building. Most elevator group control systems need to recognize the traffic pattern of the building and then change their control algorithms to improve the efficiency of the elevator system. However, the traffic flow in a building is very difficult to be classified into distinct patterns. Traffic recognition systems can recognize certain traffic patterns, but mixed traffic patterns are difficult to be recognized. The aim of this study was therefore to develop improved duplex elevator group control systems that do not need to recognize the traffic pattern. A fuzzy logic. control unit and genetic algorithms control unit were used. A fuzzy logic control unit integrates with the conventional duplex elevator group control system to improve performance especially in mixed traffic patterns with intermittent heavy traffic demand. This system will send more than one elevator to a floor with heavy demand, . according to the overall passenger traffic conditions in the building. The genetic algorithms control unit divides the building into three zones and assigns an appropriate number of elevators to each zone. The floors covered by each zone are adjusted every five minutes. This control unit optimizes elevator group control by equalizing the number of hall calls in each zone, the total elevator door opening time in each zone, and the number of floors served by each elevator. Both of the control units were tested by a simulator in a computer. The performance of the elevator system is given by indices such as average waiting time, wasted man-hour, and long waiting time percentage. The new performance index "wasted man-hour" indicates the total time spent by passengers in a building waiting for the lift service. Both proposed systems perform better than the conventional duplex control system. (An abstract of 297 words.) ~ Signed _ Wong King Sau

Abstract:
Efficient handoff algorithms cost-effectively enhance the capacity and Quality of Service (QoS) of cellular systems. This research presents novel approaches for the design of high performance handoff algorithms that exploit attractive features of several existing algorithms, provide adaptation to dynamic cellular environment, and allow systematic tradeoffs among different system characteristics. A comprehensive foundation of handoff and related issues of cellular communications is given. The tools of artificial intelligence utilized in this research, neural networks and fuzzy logic, are introduced. The scope of existing simulation models for macrocellular and microcellular handoff algorithms is enhanced by incorporating several important features. New simulation models suitable for performance evaluation of soft handoff algorithms and overlay handoff algorithms are developed. Four basic approaches for the development of high performance algorithms are proposed and are based on fuzzy logic, neural networks, unified handoff candidate selection, and pattern classification. The fuzzy logic based approach allows an organized tuning of the handoff parameters to provide a balanced tradeoff among different system characteristics. The neural network based approach suggests neural encoding of the fuzzy logic systems to simultaneously achieve the goals of high performance and reduced complexity. The unified candidacy based approach recommends the use of a unified handoff candidate selection criterion to select the best handoff candidate under given constraints. The pattern classification based approach exploits the capability of fuzzy logic and neural networks to obtain an efficient architecture of an adaptive handoff algorithm. New algorithms suitable for microcellular systems, overlay systems, and systems employing soft handoff are described. A basic adaptive algorithm suitable for a microcellular environment is proposed. Adaptation to traffic, interference, and mobility has been superimposed on the basic generic algorithm to develop another microcellular algorithm. An adaptive overlay handoff algorithm that allows a systematic balance among the design parameters of an overlay system is proposed. Important considerations for soft handoff are discussed, and adaptation mechanisms for new soft handoff algorithms are developed.

Abstract:
Biodiversity, the variety of life on the planet, is declining due to climate change, population and species interactions and as the result f demographic and landscape dynamics. Integrated model-based assessments play a key role in understanding and exploring these complex dynamics and have proven use in conservation planning. Model-based assessments using Species Distribution Models constitute an efficient means of translating limited point data to distribution probability maps for current and future scenarios in support of conservation decision making. The aims of this doctoral study were to investigate; (1) the use of a hybrid genetic programming to build high quality models that handle noisy real-world presence and absence data, (2) the extension of this solution to exploit the parallelism inherent to genetic programming for fast scenario based decision making tasks, and (3) a conceptual framework to share models in the hope of enabling research synthesis. Subsequent to this, the quality of the method, evaluated with the true skill statistic, was examined with two case studies. The first with a dataset obtained by defining a virtual species, and the second with data extracted from the North American Breeding Bird Survey relating to mourning dove (Zenaida macroura). In these studies, the produced models effectively predicted the species distribution up to 30% of error rate both presence and absence samples. The parallel implementation based on a twenty-node c3.xlarge Amazon EC2 StarCluster showed a linear speedup due to the multiple-deme coarse-grained design. The hybrid fuzzy genetic programming algorithm generated under certain consitions during the case studies significantly better transferable models.
Biodiversidade, a variedade de vida no planeta, está em declínio às alterações climáticas, mudanças nas interações das populações e espécies, bem como nas alterações demográficas e na dinâmica de paisagens. Avaliações integradas baseadas em modelo desempenham um papel fundamental na compreensão e na exploração destas dinâmicas complexas e tem o seu uso comprovado no planejamento de conservação da biodiversidade. Os objetivos deste estudo de doutorado foram investigar; (1) o uso de técnicas de programação genética e fuzzy para construir modelos de alta qualidade que lida com presença e ausência de dados ruidosos do mundo real, (2) a extensão desta solução para explorar o paralelismo inerente à programação genética para acelerar tomadas de decisão e (3) um framework conceitual para compartilhar modelos, na expectativa de permitir a síntese de pesquisa. Subsequentemente, a qualidade do método, avaliada com a true skill statistic, foi examinado com dois estudos de caso. O primeiro utilizou um conjunto de dados fictícios obtidos a partir da definição de uma espécie virtual, e o segundo utilizou dados de uma espécie de pomba (Zenaida macroura) obtidos do North American Breeding Bird Survey. Nestes estudos, os modelos foram capazes de predizer a distribuição das espécies maneira correta mesmo utilizando bases de dados com até 30% de erros nas amostras de presença e de ausência. A implementação paralela utilizando um cluster de vinte nós c3.xlarge Amazon EC2 StarCluster, mostrou uma aceleração linear devido ao arquitetura de múltiplos deme de granulação grossa. O algoritmo de programação genética e fuzzy gerada em determinadas condições durante os estudos de caso, foram significativamente melhores na transferência do que os algoritmos do BIOMOD.

Abstract:
In recent years, the type-2 fuzzy sets theory has been used to model and minimize the effects of uncertainties in rule-base fuzzy logic system. In order to make the type-2 fuzzy logic system reasonable and reliable, a new simple and novel statistical method to decide interval-valued fuzzy membership functions and a new probability type reduced reasoning method for the interval-valued fuzzy logic system are proposed in this thesis. In order to optimize this particle system’s performance, we adopt genetic algorithm (GA) to adjust parameters. The applications for the new system are performed and results have shown that the developed method is more accurate and robust to design a reliable fuzzy logic system than type-1 method and the computation of our proposed method is more efficient.

Abstract:
Fuzzy association rule mining discovers patterns in transactions, such as shopping baskets in a supermarket, or Web page accesses by a visitor to a Web site. Temporal patterns can be present in fuzzy association rules because the underlying process generating the data can be dynamic. However, existing solutions may not discover all interesting patterns because of a previously unrecognised problem that is revealed in this thesis. The contextual meaning of fuzzy association rules changes because of the dynamic feature of data. The static fuzzy representation and traditional search method are inadequate. The Genetic Iterative Temporal Fuzzy Association Rule Mining (GITFARM) framework solves the problem by utilising flexible fuzzy representations from a fuzzy rule-based system (FRBS). The combination of temporal, fuzzy and itemset space was simultaneously searched with a genetic algorithm (GA) to overcome the problem. The framework transforms the dataset to a graph for efficiently searching the dataset. A choice of model in fuzzy representation provides a trade-off in usage between an approximate and descriptive model. A method for verifying the solution to the hypothesised problem was presented. The proposed GA-based solution was compared with a traditional approach that uses an exhaustive search method. It was shown how the GA-based solution discovered rules that the traditional approach did not. This shows that simultaneously searching for rules and membership functions with a GA is a suitable solution for mining temporal fuzzy association rules. So, in practice, more knowledge can be discovered for making well-informed decisions that would otherwise be lost with a traditional approach.

Abstract:
Type-2 fuzzy logic system (FLS) cascaded with neural network, called type-2 fuzzy neural network (T2FNN), is presented in this paper to handle uncertainty with dynamical optimal learning. A T2FNN consists of type-2 fuzzy linguistic process as the antecedent part and the two-layer interval neural network as the consequent part. A general T2FNN is computational intensive due to the complexity of type 2 to type 1 reduction. Therefore the interval T2FNN is adopted in this paper to simplify the computational process. The dynamical optimal training algorithm for the two-layer consequent part of interval T2FNN is first developed. The stable and optimal left and right learning rates for the interval neural network, in the sense of maximum error reduction, can be derived for each iteration in the training process (back propagation). It can also be shown both learning rates can not be both negative. Further, due to variation of the initial MF parameters, i.e. the spread level of uncertain means or deviations of interval Gaussian MFs, the performance of back propagation training process may be affected. To achieve better total performance, a genetic algorithm (GA) is designed to search better-fit spread rate for uncertain means and near optimal learnings for the antecedent part. Several examples are fully illustrated. Excellent results are obtained for the truck backing-up control and the identification of nonlinear system, which yield more improved performance than those using type-1 FNN.

Abstract:
The speed control of a Brushless DC Motor Drive in the presence of load disturbance is investigated. Firstly some practical results are presented where a simple proportional-integral speed controller is used in the presence of a large step input speed demand as well as load disturbance. The wind-up problem caused by the saturation of the controller is discussed. In order to improve the performance of the proportional-integral speed controller in the presence of load variation, a load estimator is used with torque feedforward control. The results presented show the speed holding capability in the presence of load variation is significantly improved. A genetic algorithm is used on line to optimise the controller for different conditions such as large and small step input speed demand and load disturbance. The results presented show that a genetic algorithm is capable of finding the tuning of the controller for optimal performance. Single-input single-output and two-input two-output fuzzy speed controllers are also used and the results compared to a proportional-integral controller. Results are presented showing that a single-input single-output fuzzy controller works as a proportional controller with variable gain whereas the two-input two-output fuzzy controller is capable of driving the motor at variable speed and load torque with excellent performance. The robustness of the fuzzy controllers is compared to the proportional-integral controller and the results presented show that the fuzzy one is more robust then the proportional-integral. A genetic algorithm is also used on line for the optimisation of the two-input twooutput fuzzy speed controller and the results show that despite the large number of parameters to be optimised, the tuning for optimal performance is also possible.

Abstract:
The first part of this dissertation presents an innovative method for the assessment of generation system reliability. In this method, genetic algorithm (GA) is used as a search tool to truncate the probability state space and to track the most probable failure states. GA stores system states, in which there is generation deficiency to supply system maximum load, in a state array. The given load pattern is then convoluted with the state array to obtain adequacy indices. In the second part of the dissertation, a GA based method for state sampling of composite generation-transmission power systems is introduced. Binary encoded GA is used as a state sampling tool for the composite power system network states. A linearized optimization load flow model is used for evaluation of sampled states. The developed approach has been extended to evaluate adequacy indices of composite power systems while considering chronological load at buses. Hourly load is represented by cluster load vectors using the k-means clustering technique. Two different approaches have been developed which are GA parallel sampling and GA sampling for maximum cluster load vector with series state revaluation. The developed GA based method is used for the assessment of annual frequency and duration indices of composite system. The conditional probability based method is used to calculate the contribution of sampled failure states to system failure frequency using different component transition rates. The developed GA based method is also used for evaluating reliability worth indices of composite power systems. The developed GA approach has been generalized to recognize multi-state components such as generation units with derated states. It also considers common mode failure for transmission lines. Finally, a new method for composite system state evaluation using real numbers encoded GA is developed. The objective of GA is to minimize load curtailment for each sampled state. Minimization is based on the dc load flow model. System constraints are represented by fuzzy membership functions. The GA fitness function is a combination of these membership values. The proposed method has the advantage of allowing sophisticated load curtailment strategies, which lead to more realistic load point indices.

Abstract:
Reducing the operating costs of chemical processes is very beneficial in decreasing a company's bottom line numbers. Since chemical processes are usually run in steady-state for long periods of time, saving a few dollars an hour can have significant long term effects. However, the complexity involved in most chemical processes from nonlinear dynamics makes them difficult processes to optimize. A nonlinear, open-loop unstable system, called the Tennessee Eastman Chemical Process Control Problem, is used as a test-bed problem for minimization routines. A decentralized controller is first developed that stabilizes the plant to set point changes and disturbances. Subsequently, a genetic algorithm calculates input parameters of the decentralized controller for minimum operating cost performance. Genetic algorithms use a directed search method based on the evolutionary principle of "survival of the fittest". They are powerful global optimization tools; however, they are typically computationally expensive and have long convergence times. To decrease the convergence time and avoid premature convergence to a local minimum solution, an auxiliary fuzzy logic controller was used to adapt the parameters of the genetic algorithm. The controller manipulates the input and output data through a set of linguistic IF-THEN rules to respond in a manner similar to human reasoning. The combination of a supervisory fuzzy controller and a genetic algorithm leads to near-optimum operating costs for a dynamically modeled chemical process.

Also, this thesis combines conventional trading strategies with the fuzzy logic. The practical part of this thesis contains also a framework for composing, simulation and analysis of the automated trading strategies. The simulator contained in this framework is implemented in the Java language and based on DEVS formalism. Because of this, there is a possibility to embed real-time components into the trading model.

Abstract:
Portfolio optimisation has a number of constraints resulting from some practical matters and regulations. The closed-form mathematical solution of portfolio optimisation problems usually cannot include these constraints. Exhaustive search to reach the exact solution can take prohibitive amount of computational time. Portfolio optimisation models are also usually impaired by the estimation error problem caused by lack of ability to predict the future accurately. A number of Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithms are proposed to solve the problem with two objectives subject to cardinality constraints, floor constraints and round-lot constraints. Fuzzy logic is incorporated into the Vector Evaluated Genetic Algorithm (VEGA) to but solutions tend to cluster around a few points. Strength Pareto Evolutionary Algorithm 2 (SPEA2) gives solutions which are evenly distributed portfolio along the effective front while MOGA is more time efficient. An Evolutionary Artificial Neural Network (EANN) is proposed. It automatically evolves the ANN's initial values and structures hidden nodes and layers. The EANN gives a better performance in stock return forecasts in comparison with those of Ordinary Least Square Estimation and of Back Propagation and Elman Recurrent ANNs. Adaptation algorithms for selecting a pair of forecasting models, which are based on fuzzy logic-like rules, are proposed to select best models given an economic scenario. Their predictive performances are better than those of the comparing forecasting models. MOGA and SPEA2 are modified to include a third objective to handle model risk and are evaluated and tested for their performances. The result shows that they perform better than those without the third objective.

Abstract:
Vehicle acoustic signals have long been considered as unwanted traffic noise. In this research acoustic signals generated by each vehicle will be used to detect its presence and classify its type. Circular arrays of microphones were designed and built to detect desired signals and suppress unwanted ones. Circular arrays with multiple rings have an interesting and important property that is constant sidelobe levels. A modified genetic algorithm that can work directly with real numbers is used in the circular array design. It offers more effective ways to solve numerical problems than a standard genetic algorithm. In classifier design two main paradigms are considered: multilayer perceptrons and adaptive fuzzy logic systems. A multilayer perceptron is a network inspired by biological neural systems. Even though it is far from a biological system, it possesses the capability to solve many interesting problems in variety fields. Fuzzy logic systems, on the other hand, were inspired by human capabilities to deal with fuzzy terms. Its structures and operations are based on fuzzy set theory and its operations. Adaptive fuzzy logic systems are fuzzy logic systems equipped with training algorithms so that its rules can be extracted or modified from available numerical data similar to neural networks. Both fuzzy logic systems and multilayer perceptrons have been proved to be universal function approximators. Since there are approximations in almost every stage, both of these system types are good candidates for classification systems. In classification problems unequal learning of each class is normally encountered. This unequal learning may come from different learning difficulties and/or unequal numbers of training data from each class. The classifier tends to classify better for a well-learned class while doing poorly for other classes. Classification costs that may be different from class to class can be used to train and test a classifier. An error backpropagation algorithm can be modified so that the classification costs along with unequal learning factors can be used to control classifier learning during its training phase.

The problem of decision making about the allocation of resources is present in many areas of society. The allocation of ambulances to the occurrence of accidents with victims and the allocation of teams to solve problems in the supply of electricity are examples of situations where it is necessary to make this decision. We can also mention the problems that occur in the allocation of hardware resources when a system is running in a distributed form. In this context, this paper presents the system COGNARE, which brings together techniques such as Genetic Algorithms, Fuzzy Logic and Multiagent Systems in order to allocate tasks to resources dynamically. The COGNARE was used in two different situations. At first, the problem was to allocate vehicles to a distributor of electricity to occurrences of failures in supply. In the second situation, the problem was to allocate hardware resources in a distributed system. In both cases, the COGNARE presented as a system of allocating resources efficiently. Keywords

Na segunda situação, o problema consistia em alocar dinamicamente recursos de hardware em um sistema distribuído. Nestes dois casos, o COGNARE apresentou-se como um sistema de alocação de recursos eficiente.

Abstract:
The generalization abilities of machine learning algorithms often depend on the algorithms’ initialization, parameter settings, training sets, or feature selections. For instance, SVM classifier performance largely relies on whether the selected kernel functions are suitable for real application data. To enhance the performance of individual classifiers, this dissertation proposes classifier fusion models using computational intelligence knowledge to combine different classifiers. The first fusion model called T1FFSVM combines multiple SVM classifiers through constructing a fuzzy logic system. T1FFSVM can be improved by tuning the fuzzy membership functions of linguistic variables using genetic algorithms. The improved model is called GFFSVM. To better handle uncertainties existing in fuzzy MFs and in classification data, T1FFSVM can also be improved by applying type-2 fuzzy logic to construct a type-2 fuzzy classifier fusion model (T2FFSVM). T1FFSVM, GFFSVM, and T2FFSVM use accuracy as a classifier performance measure. AUC (the area under an ROC curve) is proved to be a better classifier performance metric. As a comparison study, AUC-based classifier fusion models are also proposed in the dissertation. The experiments on biomedical datasets demonstrate promising performance of the proposed classifier fusion models comparing with the individual composing classifiers. The proposed classifier fusion models also demonstrate better performance than many existing classifier fusion methods. The dissertation also studies one interesting phenomena in biology domain using machine learning and classifier fusion methods. That is, how protein structures and sequences are related each other. The experiments show that protein segments with similar structures also share similar sequences, which add new insights into the existing knowledge on the relation between protein sequences and structures: similar sequences share high structure similarity, but similar structures may not share high sequence similarity.

Abstract:
In this thesis a Proactive Risk-Aware Robotic Sensor Network (RSN) is proposed for the application of Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP). Each robotic member of the RSN is granted a perception of risk by means of a Risk Management Framework (RMF). A fuzzy-risk model is used to extract distress-based risk features and potential intrusion-based risk features for CIP. Detected high-risk events invoke a fuzzy-auction Multi-Robot Task Allocation (MRTA) algorithm to create a response group for each detected risk. Through Evolutionary Multi-Objective (EMO) optimization, a Pareto set of optimal robot configurations for a response group will be generated using the Non-Dominating Sorting Genetic Algorithm II (NSGA-II). The optimization objectives are to maximize sensor coverage of essential spatial regions and minimize the amount of energy exerted by the response group. A set of non-dominated solutions are produced from EMO optimization for a decision maker to select a single response. The RSN response group will re-organize based on the specifications of the selected response.

Abstract:
Since the last decade the problem of surface inspection has been receiving great attention from the scientific community, the quality control and the maintenance of products are key points in several industrial applications.The railway associations spent much money to check the railway infrastructure. The railway infrastructure is a particular field in which the periodical surface inspection can help the operator to prevent critical situations. The maintenance and monitoring of this infrastructure is an important aspect for railway association.That is why the surface inspection of railway also makes importance to the railroad authority to investigate track components, identify problems and finding out the way that how to solve these problems. In railway industry, usually the problems find in railway sleepers, overhead, fastener, rail head, switching and crossing and in ballast section as well. In this thesis work, I have reviewed some research papers based on AI techniques together with NDT techniques which are able to collect data from the test object without making any damage. The research works which I have reviewed and demonstrated that by adopting the AI based system, it is almost possible to solve all the problems and this system is very much reliable and efficient for diagnose problems of this transportation domain. I have reviewed solutions provided by different companies based on AI techniques, their products and reviewed some white papers provided by some of those companies. AI based techniques likemachine vision, stereo vision, laser based techniques and neural network are used in most cases to solve the problems which are performed by the railway engineers.The problems in railway handled by the AI based techniques performed by NDT approach which is a very broad, interdisciplinary field that plays a critical role in assuring that structural components and systems perform their function in a reliable and cost effective fashion. The NDT approach ensures the uniformity, quality and serviceability of materials without causing any damage of that materials is being tested. This testing methods use some way to test product like, Visual and Optical testing, Radiography, Magnetic particle testing, Ultrasonic testing, Penetrate testing, electro mechanic testing and acoustic emission testing etc. The inspection procedure has done periodically because of better maintenance. This inspection procedure done by the railway engineers manually with the aid of AI based techniques.The main idea of thesis work is to demonstrate how the problems can be reduced of thistransportation area based on the works done by different researchers and companies. And I have also provided some ideas and comments according to those works and trying to provide some proposal to use better inspection method where it is needed.The scope of this thesis work is automatic interpretation of data from NDT, with the goal of detecting flaws accurately and efficiently. AI techniques such as neural networks, machine vision, knowledge-based systems and fuzzy logic were applied to a wide spectrum of problems in this area. Another scope is to provide an insight into possible research methods concerning railway sleeper, fastener, ballast and overhead inspection by automatic interpretation of data.In this thesis work, I have discussed about problems which are arise in railway sleepers,fastener, and overhead and ballasted track. For this reason I have reviewed some research papers related with these areas and demonstrated how their systems works and the results of those systems. After all the demonstrations were taking place of the advantages of using AI techniques in contrast with those manual systems exist previously.This work aims to summarize the findings of a large number of research papers deploying artificial intelligence (AI) techniques for the automatic interpretation of data from nondestructive testing (NDT). Problems in rail transport domain are mainly discussed in this work. The overall work of this paper goes to the inspection of railway sleepers, fastener, ballast and overhead.
