Specif- ically, the subjective weights depending on experts' experience are substituted by the optimal weights. The optimal weights are acquired through constructing a mathematical programming model based on subjective weights and objective weights. The method of solving subjective weights is the same as before, and the objective weights were solved by means of grey theory. The case analysis shows that the method of improved weighted sum can improve the evaluation precision up to more than 5% , and minimize the instability of calculation precision resulting from only using subjective weights. The method that the optimal weights substituted the subjective weights is brought forward in improving evaluation precision for the first time. The ideas of the optimal weights and the pro- posed method are described and analyzed.展开更多

Therefore, this article established a prediction model for the total amount of manure in a pig house and took the number of pigs in the house, age, feed intake,feeding time, the time when the ammonia concentration increased the fastest and the daily fixed cleaning time as variable factors for modelling, so that the model could obtain the current manure output according to the real-time input of time. A Backpropagation(BP) neural network was used for training. The cross-validation method was used to select the best hyperparameters, and the genetic algorithm(GA), particle swarm optimization(PSO) algorithm and mind evolutionary algorithm(MEA) were selected to optimize the initial network weights. The results showed that the model could predict the amount of manure in real-time according to the model input. After the cross-validation method determined the hyperparameters, the GA, PSO and MEA were used to optimize the manure prediction model. The GA had the best average performance.展开更多

With the aid of establishing the optimization model of the gear transmission system that consists of an objective function and some constraints (for example, the bending stress, the contact stress, the torsional strength, etc.), the optimal weight design of the gear transmission system can be transformed into the optimization problem for the objective function under the constraints. Moreover, both the shaft and the gear of the gear transmission system are considered simultaneously in our design. The hybrid Taguchi-genetic algorithm (HTGA) is employed to find the optimal design variables and the optimal weight of the system. An illustrated example for the single spur gear reducer is given to show that the optimal weight design problem can be successfully solved using the proposed design scheme. It also proves the high efficiency and feasibility of the algorithm in the gear design.展开更多

In this paper, a novel hierarchical solution strategy, named as the Homogenization-Planning-Tracking(HPT) method, to solve cooperative autonomous motion control for heterogeneous carrier dispatch systems is developed. In the homogenization layer, any towed aircraft system involved in the sortie task is abstracted into a virtual taxiing aircraft. This layer transforms the heterogeneous systems into a homogeneous configuration. Then in the planning layer, a centralized optimal control problem is formulated for the homogeneous system. Compared with conducting the path planning directly with the original heterogeneous system, the homogenization layer contributes to reduce the dimension and nonlinearity of the formulated optimal control problem in the planning layer and consequently improves the robustness and efficiency of the solution process. Finally, in the tracking layer, a receding horizon controller is developed to track the reference trajectory obtained in the planning layer. To improve the tracking performance,multi-objective optimization techniques are implemented offline in advance to determine optimal weight parameters used in the tracking layer. Simulations demonstrate that smooth and collision-free cooperative trajectory can be generated efficiently in the planning phase. And robust trajectory tracking can be realized in the presence of external disturbances in the tracking phase.The developed HPT method provides a promising solution to the autonomous deck dispatch for unmanned carrier aircraft in the future.展开更多

Based on the multi-different-cyclic-frequency character- istics of the cyclostationary primary user's signal and the cooperation detection advantage of the multi-secondary-user, the paper presents the weighted cooperative spectrum detection algorithm based on cyclostationarity in detail. The core of the algorithm is to detect the primary user's signal by the secondary users' cooperation detection to the multi-different-cyclic-frequency, and to make a final decision according to the fusion data of the independent secondary users' detection results. Meanwhile, in order to improve the detection performance, the paper proposes a method to optimize the weight on basis of the deflection coefficient criterion. The result of simulation shows that the proposed algorithm has better performance even in low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).展开更多

Meanwhile, in order to improve the detection performance, the paper proposes a method to optimize the weight on basis of the deflection coefficient criterion. The result of simulation shows that the proposed algorithm has better performance even in low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).

文摘This paper studies the effects of integrating four inventory classification methods into constant work-in-process(CONWIP)systems in a multistage batch production.The inventory classification methods are multiple closed-loop CONWIP(MCC),parallel CONWIP(PC),analytical hierarchy procedure,and weighted linear optimization(WLO).Discrete-event simulation models were built.A full-factorial experimental design was employed.Response surface methodology generated suitable regression models for performance comparison of different ABC analysis methods.In the second stage of experiment,the ABC analysis methods from the first stage were fine-tuned and compared.PC and WLO are the most preferred methods because of higher total outputs,lower work-in-process levels,and shorter flow times compared with the other two methods.However,the revenue accrued through WLO is higher than that accrued via PC.This study complements existing literature on price setting in manufacturing organizations by delineating classification of finished goods based on both exogenous and production factors.

文摘Oil is an important strategic material and civil energy.Accurate prediction of oil consumption can provide basis for relevant departments to reasonably arrange crude oil production,oil import and export,and optimize the allocation of social resources.Therefore,a new grey model FENBGM(1,1)is proposed to predict oil consumption in China.Firstly,the grey effect of the traditional GM(1,1)model was transformed into a quadratic equation.Four different parameters were introduced to improve the accuracy of the model,and the new initial conditions were designed by optimizing the initial values by weighted buffer operator.Combined with the reprocessing of the original data,the scheme eliminates the random disturbance effect,improves the stability of the system sequence,and can effectively extract the potential pattern of future development.Secondly,the cumulative order of the new model was optimized by fractional cumulative generation operation.At the same time,the smoothness rate quasi-smoothness condition was introduced to verify the stability of the model,and the particle swarm optimization algorithm(PSO)was used to search the optimal parameters of the model to enhance the adaptability of the model.Based on the above improvements,the new combination prediction model overcomes the limitation of the traditional grey model and obtains more accurate and robust prediction results.Then,taking the petroleum consumption of China's manufacturing industry and transportation,storage and postal industry as an example,this paper verifies the validity of FENBGM(1,1)model,analyzes and forecasts China's crude oil consumption with several commonly used forecasting models,and uses FENBGM(1,1)model to forecast China's oil consumption in the next four years.The results show that FENBGM(1,1)model performs best in all cases.Finally,based on the prediction results of FENBGM(1,1)model,some reasonable suggestions are put forward for China's oil consumption planning.
