The potential performance benefit of actuating inlet guide vane (IGV) angle, variable diffuser vane (VDV) angle and impeller speed to implement a multi-parameter control on a centrifugal compressor system is assessed. The assessment consists of first developing a one-dimensional meanline model for estimating performance of centrifugal compressor system followed by the formulation of a control framework incorporating the meanline model. Performance estimate of a representative centrifugal compressor system with adjustable IGV angle, VDV angle and impeller speed using the meanline model is in accord with available test data. The impeller performance estimate based on the meanline model is also in accord with computed results from Reynolds Average Navier-Stokes Equations. The simple control framework can be used to optimize on the fly the compressor operation to meet a specific mission requirement by selecting an appropriate combination of impeller speed, IGV and VDV angle settings. Desirable flow configurations with the required performance in response to specified operating needs have been obtained to serve as illustrations on the practical utility of the control framework. Results provide guidelines and attributes of compressor for achieving the required performance and operation at the system level through prioritizing the actuation of the adjustable parameters; for instance impeller speed would provide a high level of leverage to affect the compressor performance on an effective basis and that the IGV angle should be confined to a specified range. While the results have not been assessed in an experimental setting, they are used to design and plan an experimental program for evaluating the proposed simple multi-parameter control strategy. Flexibility have been incorporated into the formulation to allow the refinement and updating of the model for improved accuracy and fidelity.

For problems such as medical imaging, the process of reconstructing the state of a system from measurement data can be very expensive to compute. The ever increasing need for high accuracy requires very large models to be used. Reducing the computational burden by replacing the model with a specially constructed smaller model is an established and effective technique. However, it can be difficult to determine how well the smaller model matches the original model. In this thesis, we examine two techniques for estimating the quality of a smaller model based on randomized combinations of sources and detectors. The first technique focuses on reducing the computational cost as much as possible. With the equivalent of a single randomized source, we show that this estimate is an effective measure of the model quality. Coupled with a new technique for improving the smaller model, we demonstrate a highly efficient and robust method. The second technique prioritizes robustness in its algorithm. The algorithm uses these randomized combinations to estimate how the observations change for different system states. If these estimates are accurate with a high probability, we show that this leads to a method that always finds a minimum misfit between predicted values and the observed data.

Full textTo determine parameter values for models of reactions in the human body, like the glycolysis, good methods of parameter estimation are needed. Those models are often non-linear and estimation of the parameters can be very time consuming if it is possible at all. The goal of this work is to test different methods to improve the calculation speed of the parameter estimation of an example system. If the parameter estimation speed for the example system can be improved it is likely that the method could also be useful for systems similar to the example system.
One approach to improve the calculation speed is to construct a new cost function whose evaluation does not require any simulation of the system. Simulation free parameter estimation can be much quicker than using simulations to evaluate the cost function since the cost function is evaluated many times. Also a modication of the simulated annealing optimization method has been implemented and tested.
It turns out that some of the methods significantly reduced the time needed for the parameter estimations. However the quick methods have disadvantages in the form of reduced robustness. The most successful method was using a spline approximation together with a separation of the model into several submodels, and repeated use of the simulated annealing optimization algorithm to estimate the parameters.

Full textVI-SLAM (Visual-Inertial Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) is a popular way for robotics navigation and tracking. With the help of sensor fusion from IMU and camera, VI-SLAM can give a more accurate solution for navigation. One important problem needs to be solved in VI-SLAM is that we need to know accurate relative position between camera and IMU, we call it the extrinsic parameter. However, our measurement of the rotation and translation between IMU and camera is noisy. If the measurement is slightly o?, the result of SLAM system will be much more away from the ground truth after a long run. Optimization is necessary. This paper uses a global optimization method called Bayesian Optimization to optimize the relative pose between IMU and camera based on the sliding window residual output from VISLAM. The advantage of using Bayesian Optimization is that we can get an accurate pose estimation between IMU and camera from a large searching range. Whats more, thanks to the Gaussian Process or T process of Bayesian Optimization, we can get a result with a known uncertainty, which cannot be done by many optimization solutions.

Full textThis thesis proposes three main contributions to advance the state-of-the-art of AutoML approaches. They are divided into two research directions: optimization (first contribution) and meta-learning (second and third contributions). The first contribution is a hybrid optimization algorithm, dubbed Mosaic, leveraging Monte-Carlo Tree Search and Bayesian Optimization to address the selection of algorithms and the tuning of hyper-parameters, respectively. The empirical assessment of the proposed approach shows its merits compared to Auto-sklearn and TPOT AutoML systems on OpenML 100. The second contribution introduces a novel neural network architecture, termed Dida, to learn a good representation of datasets (i.e., metafeatures) from scratch while enforcing invariances w.r.t features and rows permutations. Two proofof-concept tasks (patch classification and performance prediction tasks) are considered. The proposed approach yields superior empirical performance compared to Dataset2Vec and DSS on both tasks. The third contribution addresses the limitation of Dida on handling standard dataset benchmarks. The proposed approach, called Metabu, relies on hand-crafted meta-features. The novelty of Metabu is two-fold: i) defining an "oracle" topology of datasets based on top-performing hyper-parameters; ii) leveraging Optimal Transport approach to align a mapping of the handcrafted meta-features with the oracle topology. The empirical results suggest that Metabu metafeature outperforms the baseline hand-cr afted meta-features on three different tasks (assessing meta-features based topology, recommending hyper-parameters w.r.t topology, and warmstarting optimization algorithms)

Full textThe current interest regarding how to stop the global warming has put focus on the automobile industry and forced them to produce vehicles/engines that are more environmental friendly. This has led to the development of increasingly complex controlsystem of the engines. The introduction of common-rail systems in regular automotives increased the demand of physical models that in an accurate way can describe the complex cycle within the combustion chamber. With these models implemented it is possible to test new strategies on engine steering in a cost- and time efficient way.
The main purpose with this report is to, build our own model based on the existing theoretical models in diesel engine combustion. The model has then been evaluated in a simulation environment using Matlab/Simulink. The model that has been implemented is a multi-zone type and is able to handle multiple injections.
The model that this thesis results in can in a good way predict both pressure and torque generated in the cylinder. More investigation in how the parameter settings behave in other work-points must be done to enhance the models accuracy. There is also some work left to do in the validation of the model but to make this possible more experimental data must be accessible.

Due to human requests for the coloration of clothing materials, it leads the dyeing processing technology to be getting promoted day after day. Before the dyeing process, it is necessary that the combination of the processing parameters for the fabrics must be determined in advance. The reason is that the dyeing effects result from their parameters. In this paper, we select pure cotton and cotton mixed Lycra as the dyed fabrics, dyestuffs as the reactive dye, and the dyeing method is one-bath-two-section impregnation as well as the quality characteristic are K/S values of the fabrics. Our purpose is to find the optimum combination of processing parameters to achieve the customers’ demands. Taguchi experimental design method has been proposed in the research. In view of the dyeing results, the parameters including machine operating temperature, dyeing time, calefaction speed, dye liquor concentration, auxiliary type and concentration, pH. value, and bath-ratio value, are regarded as the control factors. The orthogonal array are employed to determine the optimum conditions, significant factors, and percent contribution together with the ANOVA approach. In the experiment, K/S values of fabrics are chosen to be the smaller-the-better target characteristic, and the confirmation experiments are performed and verified the reproducibility of the experimentation. In addition, the K/S values of dyed fabrics in optimum condition are much closer to the target values. In conclusion, the significant factors influencing the dyeing results are used to construct the prediction system of back-propagation neural network combined with Taguchi method.

In this thesis, an optimal energy management system (EMS) for a so-called Dual Hybrid electric Vehicle (DHEV) is designed. The goal is to determine optimal operating parameters of the DHEV such that each of its subsystems can be operated around their respective optimal area with minimum fuel consumption for all operation conditions, under the considerations of drivability and physical constraints of the vehicle. The design of the EMS for this system is complicate due to its nonlinear nature of the hybrid system and, furthermore, without a priori knowledge of system dynamics. This thesis has proposed three kinds of energy management strategies for the EMS, as well as a kind of simplex method based parameter optimization algorithm. The results of numerical simulations have shown that the proposed EMS for the DHEV improves its fuel consumption more than 80% compared with the ICE alone vehicle in the ECER40 transient driving cycles.

Artificial intelligence has recently attracted significant media interest when the AlphaGo program developed by Google DeepMind was defeated by Se-dol Lee in South Korea. The news follows the 1997 man versus machine performance where computer game programs utilize artificial intelligence algorithms. The degree of branching in Othello is smaller than Go. Generally, the computer Othello program is designed by MinMax search method with α–β pruning. Computer Othello is a computer game program that competes with other computer game programs. In this study, the use of two methods, namely, MinMax search and α–β pruning, is more accurate. For computer Othello, this study developed a program that makes several parameters affect the winning or losing of the game. Given the time limitation in the game, algorithms are important to find the best parameters. These parameters are adjusted in the MinMax search with α–β pruning to accelerate the search and enhance its efficiency.

Electronic industries are the main economic sources in Taiwan. TFT-LCD is one of the electronic industries and it plays an important role in the industries. There are a lot of competitors in TFT-LCD industry around the world and the production cost of TFT-LCD is extremely high. To reduce its production cost and increase profit becomes the primary concern of the management. In order to manufacture the TFT-LCD to satisfy the demands of the consumer’s market, every company is trying to search for the optimal production process parameters by experiments continuously. The best product quality can only be guaranteed through the validation of the optimal production process parameters. However experiments consume much money and time. The more experiments to search for optimal production process parameters, the less profit for the company. Under this situation, how to perform fewer experiments to search for the optimal parameters is a very important topic. This research applies Taguchi Methods and Central Composite Design (CCD) on the process of grinding color filter which is the critical component affecting the quality of TFT-LCD. This research utilizes fishbone diagram to obtain important causes of the color filter grinding process and compares Taguchi Methods with CCD by calculating the correlation coefficients among the deign variables of the two designs. We finally decide to apply CCD on the search of the optimal process parameters. Also we validate the estimated model and optimal process parameters through confirmation runs.

The five-axis machine tool is widely used in aerospace and automotive industries which takes high speed and high precision as the development goal, reacting to the short cycle and high-precision products demand in the industry. The Mechanism design, assembly process, controller parameters and environment factors all make influences on the high speed and the high precision. In order to optimize the controller parameter and improve the machining accuracy and the machining time, Taguchi method is used to find out the best parametric combination and to meet the shortest positioning time and the optimum positioning accuracy. Taguchi method is mainly used for single quality characteristic. In practice, we need to take multiple quality characteristics into consideration, so it is necessary to combine the two quality characteristics that is selected by weighting. After that, the weighting ratio is used to adjust the quality index for machining requirements of the workpiece. Finally, we will get the best parametric combination which meet the machining requirements.

The research combines the Taguchi experiment and grey relational analysis (GRA) to deal with the problem of optimizing the parameters of the SiO2 aerogel. In addition, this paper tries to understand the main process factors influencing the quality characteristics of the aerogel through the experiments. After discussing with the domain experts, we chose three quality characteristics and three experimental factors with three levels and adopted L9 (34) orthogonal array to proceed with the experiment. The three quality characteristics are density, surface area, and pore size. To obtain the weight of the quality characteristics, the entropy measurement was applied. Based on the results of GRA with entropy weight and confirmation run, the optimal process parameters of silicon aerogel were obtained. To find the optimum level of process parameters, the research applies back-propagation neural network to build the relationship between the process parameters and the quality characteristics. The experiment results show that the experiment conditions with the best grey relation grade together with the parameters obtained by the method combining the Taguchi experiment and GRA can simultaneously improve the multiple quality characteristics. Both of the parameters can be used in the production of the aerogel in practice. Because of the insufficient of the training samples, the deduction of the back-propagation neural network doesn’t work well. To get the better results of the neural network, more samples should be required in future research.

In today's competitive system, production technology is getting riser and consumer’s quality requirement is significantly increasing. In the crisis surrounding environment, the product quality is a major factor for enterprises to remain competitiveness and keep going in the competitive world. Statistical process control (SPC) is one of important tools on quality control where control chart is the most widely used tool. Zone Control Chart (ZCC) is primarily used to replace the traditional Shewhart control chart for its insensitivity and Runs Rules Tests for its inconvenience. Zone control chart divides X control chart into four regions where each region is given a score such as 1, 2, 4, and 8. The purpose of this study is to search for the optimal parameter values for zone control chart. The research applied Central Composite Design (CCD) and Box-Behnken Design (BBD) to search for the best parameter values of zone control chart. The application of CCD was divided into two parts. The first part is to put the uncoded parameter values and SAS simulated ARL values into artificial neural network to find out the weights in the artificial neural network. Next let the set of weights as the initial weights in the genetic algorithms to search for the best weights. Then find the optimal parameter values for zone control chart and its corresponding ARL forecasts. Finally input the optimal parameter values to simulate the ARL values of zone control chart by SAS program and compare the differences between the two set of ARL values. The second part applied response surface methodology (RSM) and desirability function to obtain the optimal parameter values of zone control chart. Similarly, compare the differences between predicted ARLs and simulated ARLs. The same procedure was applied on data generated by Box-Behnken design.

In the problem of making manga easier to read on handheld devices, the most essential and basic step is locating positions of each panel on the page since processing on the contents in the area of panels was required to make them more readable on handheld devices. However, due to the varying layout structure features in each series or volume of manga such as the different panel width used in every series, manual parameter adjustment is often needed to achieve the best possible result for many panel extraction algorithms. In this paper, we propose an automatic parameter optimization system based on automatic result evaluation to reduce manual adjustment in panel extraction process. The automatic result evaluation checks for two criteria. The first is the accumulated area of the extracted panels. The second is the number of parallel panel edges between extracted panels. With the automatic result evaluation, our method is able to find correct parameter sets. Aside from the parameter issues, current algorithms by other studies are not able to process manga pages with large extruding objects. Such pages will make the white gap area between panels very difficult to detect for connected component based algorithms and very hard to distinguish whether the white area is inside or outside of a panel, reducing the effectiveness of connected component component based or division line based algorithm. For this reason, this paper also proposed a novel method for panel extraction. The method employs line segment detection and corner detection to detect what are called "components" in this paper, and match up these components with each other to locate the position of the panels. As the method does not require connected component detection to detect division line or initial panel areas, it can be used to extract panels from both normal manga pages or manga pages with large extruding objects. At the end of this paper, three experiments are presented to verify that our automatic parameter optimization can detect bad cases and the parameter set with which the algorithm can perform better, and our panel extraction method is able to locate panel positions effectively from manga pages with large extruding objects. The first experiment will compare the results using and without using the automatic parameter optimization to show the optimization is able to improve the result. The second experiment will present the result of applying our method to our collected pages with large extruding objects to show our method is effective for this case. In the third experiment, this study applies the proposed system to the data set used in the past researches and compares results to display our system's effectiveness.

With the trend of high density, high pin count and strong function requirements of IC devices At the same time, the molding process technology for today''s packaging technology, has a pivotal role. Molding is one of the main methods for providing circuit protection in electronic packaging currently. The circuit board can be connected to an IC chip package substrate or a lead frame to exert the functions of electronic messaging and influence of the key molding process on the yield is very important. The quality factors affecting the manufacturing process are Transfer Time, Transfer Pressure, Clamp Pressure, Mold Temperature and Preheart Time. In this study, the Taguchi experimental method and the reaction surface method were used to optimize the process parameters, and the signal to noise ratio (S / N ratio) analysis was used to find the optimal process parameters. The actual experimental verification of these two methods are the best process parameters to achieve design, improve the robustness of the process.

The most popular and economic way to manufacture man-made fibers is melt spinning. In general, rotation speeds of an extruder and a gear pump, extruder temperature, spinning temperature, linear speed of a take-up equipment, and air cooled temperature and speed are a typical set of operating parameters to most affect the important properties of denier and tenacity of as-spun yarn. First, the suitable orthogonal array is used to plan experiments. An orthogonal array, the signal-to-noise ratio, and ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) are employed to investigate performance characteristics and to determine reproducibility of confirmation experiment in the melt spinning. A new method of dynamic model design that combines the BPNN (Back-propagation Neural Network) and Taguchi techniques to improve engineering design is proposed. The BPNN focuses on choosing parameters to study its the convergence. With the information and data collected from the experiments, we established a BPNN to provide accurate estimations. Finally, by utilizing the genetic algorithm, the optimal combination of the machining parameters can be found.

The Tuguchi orthogonal array with the AIM network was used to find the parameter conforming the request quality for the reclamation of the steel mill rolls. The 420 stainless steel was applied as filler materials by submerged arc hardfacing. The result shows that there is a minimum wear rate when the slide speed was 2m/sec. The primary wear mechanism with the 2m/sec silde speed is oxidative wear. The primary wear mechanism with the speed over 2m/sec is abrasive wear. The polarization curves wear measured by potentiodynamic polarization. The result shows that the welding current during hardfacing was the major factor to improve the corrosion resistance for 420 stainless steel in 1N H2SO4 solution.

Support Vector Machines (SVM) is one of the new techniques for pattern classification. The kernel parameter settings for SVM in training process can impact on the classification accuracy. A proper feature subset can also improve the classification efficiency and accuracy. This study hybridized the SVM with ant colony optimization (ACO) to simultaneously optimize the kernel parameters and feature subset without degrading the classification accuracy. Using the feature importance and pheromones information to determine the transition probability. Using the classification accuracy and the weight vector of the feature provided by the SVM classifier are both to update the pheromone information. The experimental results of five datasets showed that the proposed approach can successfully reduce data dimensions and maintain the classification accuracy.

The goal of this article is to study the stress concentration effect during the inner lead bonding process for tape automated bonding technology. The finite element method is employed to conduct the parametric study for forming the lead. The optimal parameter of time versus compression loading through the comparison between one-stage compression and two-stage compression process is proposed. Furthermore, the stress distribution on the bump and lead under different compressing time is considered at the same time for the singe lead simulating model. Based on the simulation results, some experiments were done to approve that the parameters of compression, including bonding force and bonding time, which were highly related to the manufacturing yield and reliability for bump and lead.

This thesis studies the stresses in step chain subjected to differenert loadings. When the link is assembled,the interference fit occures between the link plate and the pin or bush.This interference fit produce stresses in the link before subjecting to external loading.Upon moving to the tight side,the link takes the maximum loading which includes the external loading and the loading due to interference fit.When the link enters the slake side,the external loading approaches zero.Therefore in a complete cycle,the loading applied to a link varies between two values.The fatigue failure may occur.This thesis analyzes the fatigue problem and proposes some ways to improve fatigue life.Another failure of a link may be due to wear.Archard theory is used to estimate the wear depth of the pin and the bush.Based on Hertz theory and contact analysis by finite element method,the location of maximum wear deoth can be found. To improve the fatigue life of the link, the parameter analysis is done in this thesis. The diameter of the pin and the bush and the amount of interference are analyzed, some suggestions are made. Another approach used in this thesis to improve fatigue life is to use shape optimization to find the optimum shape of the link plate to reduce the maximum stress,various shape basis vectors are generated and used to optimize the boundary of the link.The maximum stress in optimied shape is proved to be less than that in the original shape.

Parameter design is advocated to design a product by selecting the optimum conditions of control factors (factors which we can control) so that the product is least sensitive to uncontrollable factors (noise factors) such as wear, aging, and ambient conditions. The manufacturing interests which are created concern technological advances and the marketability of products and services. Thus, parameter design questions interact constantly with the realm of continuous improvement. Conventionally, Taguchi methods have been widely used in industry; however, this method can only get the optimal under discrete control factors that will lead the real optimum with uncertain. On the other hand, most published literature addressing the multiresponse problem is too difficult to be understood by engineers with limited statistical knowledge; therefore, it is difficult to apply on the shop floor. This dissertation proposes three types of integrated intelligent approach for the optimization of the parameter design: (1) neural networks and Taguchi methods (NN-Taguchi), (2) neural networks, genetic algorithms, and exponential desirability function (NN-GA-EDF), and (3) neural networks, genetic algorithms, exponential desirability function, and fuzzy theory (NN-GA-EDF-Fuzzy). The major advantages of the proposed methods are: (1) Neural networks and Taguchi methods provide a framework of application to help a manufacturing process that is infeasible to conduct the experimental design identifies major parameters and adjusts appropriate parameters settings according to different customer’s requirements; (2) The three proposed approaches of parameter design are very suitable for high-tech industry (ex. semiconductor industry) which involves very complicated process reaction; (3) The proposed approaches can obtain the optimal parameter settings in continuous values, (4) All of the proposed approaches have abilities to cope with multiple responses to identify the key process parameters, and locate multiple optimum, (5) The engineer with limited statistical knowledge is able to apply the proposed approach easily; neither do they need to make any assumption regarding the data set, and (6) The proposed approach using fuzzy theory is intuitively logical and allows the engineer to involve process information into analysis for evaluating the qualitative response problems. Three real examples that were carried out in the semiconductor related factories in Taiwan have demonstrated the practicability of the proposed procedures.

This paper begins with elaborating the deduction and solutions of Radargrammetric Condition Equations on a single SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) image, which is the time-varying SAR airborne flight locus represented with polynomial collaborating with the mixed adjustment method. As for the blunder detection in observation data, in order to apply τ-test in detecting the possible blunder in observation data to assure its quality, the orientation parameter used to be described with two-order polynomial in previous researches. In this paper, one appropriate high-order polynomial is chosen in the first place to proceed with the optimization of the orientation parameter originally presented by two-order polynomial. The result of the experiment has shown that the check point precision is 4.5-5.5 meter horizontally and 5.0 meter vertically, which proves to be better than two-order polynomial. This is going to make positive contributions toward the precision promotion in the subsequent researches on geocoding of SAR image. The experimental area located near the Yang-mei town, Taoyuan County is 12 km from east to west and 9 km from north to south with the largest height difference about 150 m.

The works of this thesis are divided into two parts. Firstly, a dynamic simulation model for hybrid electric scooters (HES) is developed. Attention is paid to the prediction of key parameters of the scooter such as the engine speed, CVT gear ratio, and fuel consumption on the ECE40 drive cycle in order to evaluate the performance of the HES. The scooter studied in this research consists of an electronically controlled fuel injection internal combustion engine (ICE), a generator, clutch, final drive gears, a power assistant motor, and a mechanical-type continuously variable transmission (CVT). Due to the system being complicated and nonlinear in nature, the simulation model is simultaneously constructed using mathematical models, empirical equations, and experimental data. The effectiveness of the model was verified experimentally using a scooter hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) system, as well as using a HES running on chassis dynamometer. With the developed dynamic simulation model, the second part of this thesis is to develop a parameter optimization algorithm for the energy management system (EMS) of the HES. The proposed algorithm integrates the dynamic programming (DP) method with a feedforward neural network (FNN), which is intended to determine the global optimal values of the power split ratio of the HES on the ECE40 drive cycles. Based on the algorithm, the effects of different cost functions with various weight coefficients on the fuel consumption rate were discussed.
