Parametric optimization of the slot waveguide characteristics using a machine-learning approach by Yadvendra Singh, Suraj Jena, Harish Subbaraman

“…Three different ML techniques, such as artificial neural network (ANN), support vector regression (SVR), and random forest (RF), were tested to compute performance parameters for the slot waveguide. The RF method outperformed the other two with mean absolute error (MAE), root mean square error (RMSE), coefficient of determination ( $$\hbox {R}^{2}$$ ), and Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE) values corresponding $$\hbox {n}_{eff}$$ and $$\hbox {P}_{conf}$$ as 0.007, 0.054, 0.961, and 0.960, and 0.129, 0.185, 0.998, and 0.998, respectively. …”

Research on the vibration test load spectrum for bogie frame-mounted tractor motor based on on-track tests by LI Guoshun, GUO Lirong, CHEN Can, ZHANG Yichao, ZHANG Hongwei

“…The test load spectrum was then extended across the life-cycle running mileage; the maximum load amplitude under the life-cycle running mileage was inferred depending on the consistency in the characteristic parameters of the load spectrum, to confirm the life-cycle load spectrum. Referring to the method defined in FKM, the variable amplitude cycle coefficient was calculated, the calculation method of the equivalent constant amplitude load was determined for the corresponding variable amplitude cycle, and the constant amplitude load spectrum was constructed for the vibration load fatigue test of the frame-mounted traction motor. …”

Rough decision rules extraction and reduction based on granular computing by Hong-can YAN, Feng ZHANG, Bao-xiang LIU

“…Rule mining was an important research content of data mining,and it was also a hot research topic in the fields of decision support system,artificial intelligence,recommendation system,etc,where attribute reduction and minimal rule set extraction were the key links.Most importantly,the efficiency of extraction was determined by its application.The rough set model and granular computing theory were applied to the decision rule reduction.The decision table was granulated by granulation function,the grain of membership and the concept granular set construction algorithm gener-ated the initial concept granular set.Therefore,attribute reduction could be realized by the distinguish operator of concept granule,and decision rules extraction could be achieved by visualization of concept granule lattice.Experimental result shows that the method is easier to be applied to computer programming and it is more efficient and practical than the existing methods.…”
