Abstract:
Due to the complicated metabolism of mammalian cells, the corresponding dynamic mathematical models usually consist of large sets of differential and algebraic equations with a large number of parameters to be estimated. On the other hand, the measured data for estimating the model parameters are limited. Consequently, the parameter estimates may converge to a local minimum far from the optimal ones, especially when the initial guesses of the parameter values are poor. The methodology presented in this paper provides a systematic way for estimating parameters sequentially that generates better

Cylindrical fitting is an essential step in Large Process Pipeline’s measurement process, and precision of initial values of cylindrical fitting is a key element in getting a correct fitting result. In order to get well initial values, covariance matrixes of all points in cylinder’s three-dimensional laser scanning point cloud should be firstly established to estimate normals of all points, and then cylinder’s axis vector can be calculated by using least squares method. Secondly, remaining parameters’ initial values of the cylinder can be got by coordinate transformation. Finally, Levenberg-Ma

Abstract:
The identification of system parameters plays an essential role in system modeling and control. This paper presents a parameter estimation for a permanent magnetic DC motor using the simulink design optimization method. The parameter estimation may be represented as an optimization problem. Firstly, the initial values of the DC motor parameters are extracted using the dynamic model through measuring the values of voltage, current, and speed of the motor. Then, these values are used as an initial value for simulink design optimization. The experimentally inputoutput data can be collected using

Abstract:
The authors analyze the initial conditions bias in the estimation of brand choice models with structural state dependence. Using a combination of Monte Carlo simulations and empirical case studies of shopping panels, they show that popular, simple solutions that misspecify the initial conditions are likely to lead to bias even in relatively long panel data sets. The magnitude of the bias in the state dependence parameter can be as large as a factor of 2–2.5. The authors propose a solution to the initial conditions problem that samples the initial states as auxiliary variables in a Markov chain

A commonly used tool for estimating the parameters of a mixture model is the Expectation–Maximization (EM) algorithm, which is an iterative procedure that can serve as a maximum-likelihood estimator. The EM algorithm has well-documented drawbacks, such as the need for good initial values and the possibility of being trapped in local optima. Nevertheless, because of its appealing properties, EM plays an important role in estimating the parameters of mixture models. To overcome these initialization problems with EM, in this paper, we propose the Rough-Enhanced-Bayes mixture estimation (REBMIX) a

Abstract:
AbstractAs it has been already explained, it is very important for circular economies to minimize the wasted resources, as well as maximize the utilization value of the existing ones. To that end, experts can evaluate the materials and give an accurate estimation for both aspects. In that case, one might wonder, why is a decision support system employing machine learning necessary? While a fully automated machine learning model rarely surpasses a human’s ability in such tasks, there are several advantages in employing one. For starters, human experts will be more expensive to employ, rather than use an algorithm. One could claim that research towards developing an efficient and fully automated decision support system would end up costing more than employing actual human experts. In this instance, it is paramount to think long-term. Investing in this kind of research will create systems which are reusable, extensible, and scalable. This aspect alone more than remedies the initial costs. It is also important to observe that, if the number of wastes to be processed is more than the human experts can process in a timely fashion, they will not be able to provide their services, even if employment costs were not a concern. On the contrary, a machine learning model is perfectly capable of scaling to humongous amounts of data, conducting fast data processing and decision making. For power plants with particularly fast processing needs, an automated decision support system is an important asset. Moreover, a decision support system can predict the future based on past observations. While not always entirely spot on, it can give a future estimation about aspects such as energy required, amounts of wastes produced etc. in the future. Therefore, processing plants can plan of time and adapt to specific needs. A human expert can provide this as well to some degree, but on a much smaller scale. Especially in time series forecasting, it is interesting to note that, even if a decision support model does not predict exact values, it is highly likely to predict trends of the value increasing or decreasing in certain ranges. In the next sections, we are going to describe the four machine learning models that were developed and which compose the Decision Support System of FENIX. Section 8.1 describes how we predict the quality of the extracted materials based on features such as temperature, extruder speed, etc. Section 8.2 describes the process of extracting heuristic rules based on existing results. Section 8.3 describes how FENIX provides time-series forecasting to predict the future of a variable based on past observations. Finally, Sect. 8.4 describes the process of classifying materials based on images.

Abstract:
AbstractWe propose that a systems engineering methodology may be applied in an effective interactive design environment for lifecycle cost estimation and value optimization in the context of a manufacturing enterprise. In order to optimize a product design for value, engineering and manufacturing businesses need to be able to estimate accurately product lifecycle costs during the early design phases of its development, because this is when the majority of these costs are determined. Systems engineering defines realizing value as meeting stakeholder requirements and emphasizes formalizing these in order to link coherently the individual estimated costs of a design to the needs it fulfils. Furthermore, formalized requirement and design parameters are suitable for modelling and simulation, and we envision a systems model implemented within existing knowledge-based engineering tools embedded in a design environment. The results of this model may support design decisions, as well as reinforce systems engineering analyses in evaluating processes for value chain simulations.

Abstract:
AbstractEarthquake happens frequently in China, and seismic design is of high importance for buildings. The energy-based seismic design method with clear conception has attracted attention of more and more researchers. One of the initial questions is how to determine the energy requirement. In this paper, the finite element software is used to analyze the time history of the concentrically braced steel frames designed according to the current codes and standards. The analysis shows that the cumulative demand obtained by time history analysis is similar to the estimated value. The hysteretic energy dissipation of the concentrically braced steel frames is of small top and big bottom along the height of the structure, and the energy dissipation of the floors below the height of H/3 (H is the height of the structure) is larger. Under rare earthquakes, the yield mode of structures designed according to the elastic design method of small earthquakes is uncontrollable, so it is necessary to study the design method based on energy behavior.

Abstract:
AbstractDownward counterfactual analysis – or quantitatively estimating how our observed history could have been worse – is increasingly being used by the re/insurance industry to identify, quantify, and mitigate against as-yet-unrealised “grey-swan” catastrophic events. While useful for informing site-specific adaptation strategies, the extraction of probabilistic information remains intangible from such downside-only focused analytics. We hypothesise that combined upward and downward counterfactual analysis (i.e., how history could have been either better or worse) may allow us to obtain probabilistic information from counterfactual research if it can be applied objectively and without bias.Here we test this concept of objective counterfactual analysis by investigating how initial-condition-driven track variability of events in our North Atlantic Hurricane (NAHU) record may affect present-day probabilistic views of US landfall risk. To do this, we create 10,000 counterfactual NAHU histories from NCEP GEFS v2 initial-condition ensemble reforecast data for the period 1985-2016 and compare the statistics of these counterfactual histories to a model-based version of our single observational history.While the methodology presented herein attempts to produce the histories as objectively as possible, there is clear – and, ultimately, intuitively understandable – systematic underprediction of US NAHU landfall frequency in the counterfactual histories. This limits the ability to use the data in real-world applications at present. However, even with this systematic under-prediction, it is interesting to note both the magnitude of volatility and spatial variability in hurricane landfalls in single cities and wider regions along the US coastline, which speaks to the potential value of objective counterfactual analysis once methods have evolved.

Abstract:
This chapter provides a variety of adaptive predictor control techniques to deal with different uncertainty collections from four basic uncertainties. These include delay, parameter, ODE state, and PDE state. In the presence of a discrete actuator delay that is long and unknown, but when the actuator state is available for measurement, a global adaptive stabilization result is obtainable. In contrast, the problem where the delay value is unknown, and where the actuator state is not measurable at the same time, is not solvable globally, since the problem is not linearly parameterized in the unknown delay. In this case, a local stabilization is feasible, with restrictions on the initial conditions such that not only do the initial values of the ODE and actuator state have to be small, but also the initial value of the delay estimation error has to be small (the delay value is allowed to be large but the initial value of its estimate has to be close to the true value of the delay).

Full text
Abstract:
In this chapter, the authors propose a system that measures microtremors of the ground and buildings and instantaneously calculates building damage estimation and emergency risk assessment. In the conventional damage estimation and emergency risk assessment due to microtremors, resonance judgments are mainly based on the initial state due to microtremors of the ground, and buildings are often seen. However, there is a possibility that the ground and the building will resonate continuously as the ground and the building are cracked and damaged by disturbances such as earthquakes and winds. In addition, the resonance causes great damage to the building. In the system proposed this time, damage estimation and emergency risk assessment are performed not only in the initial state but also during the duration. In addition, as a renovation proposal, a system is proposed that predicts the damage and emergency risk of the building during renovation with earthquake resistance, seismic isolation, and damping. In this system, the building hazard levels are classified into four categories based on two methods: one method involves calculating the response spectrum and transfer function of the building and ground using continuous microtremor measurements to determine the resonance performance, and the other method utilizes the PML (Probable Maximum Loss) values.

Neural Partial Differentiation (NPD) approach is applied to estimate terminal airspace sector capacity in real-time from the ATC (Air Traffic Controller) dynamical neural model with permissible safe separation and affordable workload. A neural model of a multi-input-single-output (MISO) ATC dynamical system is primarily established and used to estimate parameters from the experimental data using NPD. Since the relative standard deviations of these estimated parameters are lesser, the predicted neural model response is well matched with the intervention of ATC workload. Moreover, the proposed neural network-based approach works well with the experimental data online as it does not require the initial values of model parameters that are unknown in practice.

Full text
Abstract:
Mixture models become increasingly popular due to their modeling flexibility and are applied to the clustering and classification of heterogeneous data. The EM algorithm is largely used for the maximum likelihood estimation of mixture models because the algorithm is stable in convergence and simple in implementation. Despite such advantages, it is pointed out that the EM algorithm is local and has slow convergence as the main drawback. To avoid the local convergence of the EM algorithm, multiple runs from several different initial values are usually used. Then the algorithm may take a large number of iterations and long computation time to find the maximum likelihood estimates. The speedup of computation of the EM algorithm is available for these problems. We give the algorithms to accelerate the convergence of the EM algorithm and apply them to mixture model estimation. Numerical experiments examine the performance of the acceleration algorithms in terms of the number of iterations and computation time.

Abstract:
The valuation of an institution’s patrimony represents a necessary condition for an efficient management of its assets. The execution and analysis of real estate appraisal reports are essential to the achievement of some strategic objectives of the Brazilian Army, but they are also quite costly in terms of time, labor and financial resources. Sometimes, great effort is required for the aforementioned steps to take place and the market value finally obtained is inconsistent with what was initially imagined by the authorities, causing the technical study carried out to not be effectively used in

Abstract:
Abstract One possible approach to life extension of aerospace components is to take those parts or subsystems that have run the limited initial life estimate and been removed from service, and to operate them in simulated service for periods of time beyond the initial life estimate. It is often the case that such testing must be suspended before the part reaches the point of actual failure. A need therefore exists to use such suspended test data to infer a life limit. The standard deviation of the estimated life can generally be reliably quantified by applying results from laboratory material

Abstract:
Dynamic models of industrial processes play an instrumental role in the operation of such processes from smart sensors, data reconciliation, to advanced control. For good performance, a precise model is normally required. The issue of improving models has received considerable critical attention. In this work, we consider the estimation of model parameters and initial states of a gas lifting oil well model, followed by filtering of its states. By utilizing information from both first-principle model and data, the results are presented to show the estimated values and their uncertainties. Julia

Abstract:
Abstract Localization accuracy is one of the most important parts of Unmanned Vehicle Systems, Automated Vehicles, Robotics and Navigation. The 6-DOF Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) is a commonly used device for inertial navigation and is composed of a 3-axis accelerometer and 3-axis gyroscope. The body-fixed IMU measurements are combined with initial values to produce a position and orientation estimate in the inertial frame with every new measurement. However, IMU performance is greatly degraded by bias, scale-factor, non-orthogonality, temperature, and noise. This paper develops a sliding m

Abstract:
This article discusses the application of the smooth variable structure filter (SVSF) on a target tracking problem. The SVSF is a relatively new predictor-corrector method used for state and parameter estimation. It is a sliding mode estimator, where gain switching is used to ensure that the estimates converge to true state values. An internal model of the system, either linear or nonlinear, is used to predict an a priori state estimate. A corrective term is then applied to calculate the a posteriori state estimate, and the estimation process is repeated iteratively. The results of applying th

Abstract:
This paper focuses on estimating the velocity and position of fast switching digital hydraulic valves actuated by electromagnetic moving coil actuators, based on measurements of the coil current and voltage. The velocity is estimated by a simple first-order sliding mode observer architecture and the position is estimated by integrating the estimated velocity. The binary operation of digi-valves enables limiting and resetting the position estimate since the moving member is switched between the mechanical end-stops of the valve. This enables accurate tracking since drifting effects due to measu

Abstract:
The initial wetting of a reservoir sets a limit for the EOR potential during water-based recovery operations and “Smart Water” injection. For this reason, an improved understanding of the factors influencing the wetting can help to control and better forecast oil production during water-based floods. To preserve and reproduce the original reservoir wettability is a challenging task and wrong cleaning and core restoration procedures can lead to incorrect wettability estimations and thus induce serious errors when evaluating the initial wettability of a reservoir system or its EOR potential by w

Abstract:
This study presents a major development to the wave method, a methodology used for structural identification and monitoring. The research team tested the method for use in structural damage detection and damage localization in bridges, the latter being a challenging task. The main goal was to assess capability of the improved method by applying it to a shake-table-tested prototype bridge with sparse instrumentation. The bridge was a 4-span reinforced concrete structure comprising two columns at each bent (6 columns total) and a flat slab. It was tested to failure using seven biaxial excitation
