There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one. I remember first hearing about it at school. It seemed an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality.

Usually familiarity dulls this sense of the bizarre, but in the case of i it was the reverse: over the years the sense of its surreal nature intensified. It seemed that it was impossible to write mathematics that described the real world in …

I and i

Combining Pattern Classifiers

Numerical simulation of large-scale dynamical systems plays a fundamental role in studying a wide range of complex physical phenomena; however, the inherent large-scale nature of the models often leads to unmanageable demands on computational resources. Model reduction aims to reduce this computational burden by generating reduced models that are faster and cheaper to simulate, yet accurately represent the original large-scale system behavior. Model reduction of linear, nonparametric dynamical systems has reached a considerable level of maturity, as reflected by several survey papers and books. However, parametric model reduction has emerged only more recently as an important and vibrant research area, with several recent advances making a survey paper timely. Thus, this paper aims to provide a resource that draws together recent contributions in different communities to survey the state of the art in parametric model reduction methods. Parametric model reduction targets the broad class of problems for wh...

A Survey of Projection-Based Model Reduction Methods for Parametric Dynamical Systems

The general manufacturing problem can be described as the achievement of a predefined product quality with given equipment, cost and time constraints. Unfortunately, for some quality characteristics of a product such as surface roughness it is hard to ensure that these requirements will be met. This paper aims at presenting the various methodologies and practices that are being employed for the prediction of surface roughness. The resulting benefits allow for the manufacturing process to become more productive and competitive and at the same time to reduce any re-processing of the machined workpiece so as to satisfy the technical specifications. Each approach with its advantages and disadvantages is outlined and the present and future trends are discussed. The approaches are classified into those based on machining theory, experimental investigation, designed experiments and artificial intelligence (AI).

Predicting surface roughness in machining: a review

This paper proposes two new approaches to using PSO to cluster data. It is shown how PSO can be used to find the centroids of a user specified number of clusters. The algorithm is then extended to use K-means clustering to seed the initial swarm. This second algorithm basically uses PSO to refine the clusters formed by K-means. The new PSO algorithms are evaluated on six data sets, and compared to the performance of K-means clustering. Results show that both PSO clustering techniques have much potential.

Fundamentals of neural networks

From the Publisher:
In recent years, intelligent control has emerged as one of the most active and fruitful areas of research and development. Until now, however, there has been no comprehensive text that explores the subject with focus on the design and analysis of biological and industrial applications. Intelligent Control Systems Using Soft Computing Methodologies does all that and more. Beginning with an overview of intelligent control methodologies, the contributors present the fundamentals of neural networks, supervised and unsupervised learning, and recurrent networks. They address various implementation issues, then explore design and verification of neural networks for a variety of applications, including medicine, biology, digital signal processing, object recognition, computer networking, desalination technology, and oil refinery and chemical processes.The focus then shifts to fuzzy logic, with a review of the fundamental and theoretical aspects, discussion of implementation issues, and examples of applications, including control of autonomous underwater vehicles, navigation of space vehicles, image processing, robotics, and energy management systems. The book concludes with the integration of genetic algorithms into the paradigm of soft computing methodologies, including several more industrial examples, implementation issues, and open problems and open problems related to intelligent control technology.Suited as both a textbook and a reference, Intelligent Control Systems explores recent advances in the field from both the theoretical and the practical viewpoints. It also integrates intelligent control design methodologies to give designers a set of flexible, robust controllers and providestudents with a tool for solving the examples and exercises within the book.
