Interval variables are used to quantitatively describe the uncertain parameters with limited information. Based on different Taylor and Neumann series, two kinds of parameter perturbation methods are presented to approximately yield the ranges of the uncertain temperature field. By comparing the results with traditional Monte Carlo simulation, a numerical example is given to demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method for solving steady-state heat conduction problem with uncertain-but-bounded parameters.展开更多

Weibull function is flexible, and has been used in characterising diameter distributions, especially in single-species planted stands, the world over. We evaluated some Weibull parameter estimation methods for stem diameter characterisation in (Oban) multi-species Forest in southern Nigeria. Four study sites (Aking, Ekang, Erokut and Ekuri) were selected. Four 2 km-long transects situated at 600 m apart were laid in each location. Five 50m x 50m plots were alternately laid along each transect at 400 m apart (20 plots/location) using systematic sampling technique. Tree growth variables: diameter at breast height (Dbh), diameters at the base, middle and merchantable limit, total height, merchantable height, stem straightness, crown length and crown diameter were measured on all trees 〉 10 cm to compute model response variables such as mean diameters, basal area and stem volume. Weibull parameters estimation methods used were: moment-based, percentile-based, hybrid and maximum-likelihood (ML). Data were analysed using descriptive statistics, regression models and ANOVA at α0.05. Percentile-based method was the best for Weibull [location (a), scale (b) and shape (c)] parameters estimations with mLogL = 116.66±21.89, while hybrid method was least-suitable (mLogL = 690.14±128.81) for Weibull parameters estimations. Quadratic mean diameter (Dq) was the only suitable predictor of Weibull parameters in Oban Forest.展开更多

In the end, we forecast the intending series value in its mutually space. The example shows that it can increase the precision in the estimated process by selecting the best model steps. It not only conquer the abuse of using detention inlay technology alone, but also decrease blindness of using forecast error to decide the input model directly, and the result of it is better than the method of statistics and other series means.

This paper considers a prediction problem arising in the life test of key parts in high speed trains. Employing the Bayes method, a joint prior is used to describe the variability of the parameters but the form of the prior is not specified and only several moment conditions are assumed. Under the condition that the observed samples are randomly right censored, we define a statistic to predict a set of future samples which describes the average life of the second-round samples, firstly, under the condition that the censoring distribution is known and secondly, that it is unknown. For several different priors and life data sets, we demonstrate the coverage frequencies of the proposed prediction intervals as the sample size of the observed and the censoring proportion change. The numerical results show that the prediction intervals are efficient and applicable.展开更多

The proposed method constructs a set of schemes for recursively computing the parameters in predicting function of the ARMAX model. In contrast to the existing method, that only gives results for the special case of the ARX model, the method presented is suitable not only for an SISO system, but also for an MIMO system. For the SISO system, the method presented here is even more convenient than the exisiting ones.展开更多
