A Deep Learning Approach to Shape Optimization Problems for Flexoelectric Materials Using the Isogeometric Finite Element Method

A new approach for flexoelectricmaterial shape optimization is proposed in this study.In this work,a proxymodel based on artificial neural network(ANN)is used to solve the parameter optimization and shape optimization problems.To improve the fitting ability of the neural network,we use the idea of pre-training to determine the structure of the neural network and combine different optimizers for training.The isogeometric analysis-finite element method(IGA-FEM)is used to discretize the flexural theoretical formulas and obtain samples,which helps ANN to build a proxy model from the model shape to the target value.The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified through two numerical examples of parameter optimization and one numerical example of shape optimization.

Detection of wheat seedling lines in the complex environment via deep learning

Wheat seedling line detection is critical for precision agriculture and automatic guidance in early wheat field operation. Aiming at the complex wheat field environment, a method of detecting wheat seedling lines based on deep learning was proposed in this study. Firstly, a rotated bounding box was created to improve the YOLOv3 model to predict the approximate position of the wheat seedling line;Then, according to the rotated bounding region obtained by the model, the wheat seedling line was detected by fitting the extracted center points. Finally, a comprehensive evaluation method combining angle error and distance error was proposed to evaluate the accuracy of the extracted crop line. By testing images of wheat seedlings in different environments, the results showed that the mean angle error and distance error respectively reached 0.75° and 10.84 pixels while the mean running time was 63.83 ms for a 1920×1080 pixels image. And compared to the original model the improved algorithm model improved the mAP value by 13.2%. The angle error and the distance error of the improved algorithm model were reduced by 51.4% and 39.7%, respectively. The method proposed in this study can accurately detect the wheat seedling lines at different stages and it is also suitable for the environments with weeds, shadow, bright light, and dark light. At the same time, it has a certain adaptability to wheat seedling images with a yaw angle in the shooting process. The research results could provide a reference for the automatic guidance of early wheat field machinery.

Machine Learning Approaches for the Solution of the Riemann Problem in Fluid Dynamics:a Case Study

We present our results by using a machine learning(ML)approach for the solution of the Riemann problem for the Euler equations of fluid dynamics.The Riemann problem is an initial-value problem with piecewise-constant initial data and it represents a mathematical model of the shock tube.The solution of the Riemann problem is the building block for many numerical algorithms in computational fluid dynamics,such as finite-volume or discontinuous Galerkin methods.Therefore,a fast and accurate approximation of the solution of the Riemann problem and construction of the associated numerical fluxes is of crucial importance.The exact solution of the shock tube problem is fully described by the intermediate pressure and mathematically reduces to finding a solution of a nonlinear equation.Prior to delving into the complexities of ML for the Riemann problem,we consider a much simpler formulation,yet very informative,problem of learning roots of quadratic equations based on their coefficients.We compare two approaches:(i)Gaussian process(GP)regressions,and(ii)neural network(NN)approximations.Among these approaches,NNs prove to be more robust and efficient,although GP can be appreciably more accurate(about 30\%).We then use our experience with the quadratic equation to apply the GP and NN approaches to learn the exact solution of the Riemann problem from the initial data or coefficients of the gas equation of state(EOS).We compare GP and NN approximations in both regression and classification analysis and discuss the potential benefits and drawbacks of the ML approach.

Automatic recognition of tweek atmospherics and plasma diagnostics in the lower ionosphere with the machine learning method

Tweek atmospherics are extremely low frequency and very low frequency pulse signals with frequency dispersion characteristics that originate from lightning discharges and that propagate in the Earth–ionosphere waveguide over long distances.In this study,we developed an automatic method to recognize tweek atmospherics and diagnose the lower ionosphere based on the machine learning method.The differences(automatic−manual)in each ionosphere parameter between the automatic method and the manual method were−0.07±2.73 km,0.03±0.92 cm^(−3),and 91±1,068 km for the ionospheric reflection height(h),equivalent electron densities at reflection heights(Ne),and propagation distance(d),respectively.Moreover,the automatic method is capable of recognizing higher harmonic tweek sferics.The evaluation results of the model suggest that the automatic method is a powerful tool for investigating the long-term variations in the lower ionosphere.

Computer vision-aided DEM study on the compaction characteristics of graded subgrade filler considering realistic coarse particle shapes

The compaction quality of subgrade filler strongly affects subgrade settlement.The main objective of this research is to analyze the macro-and micro-mechanical compaction characteristics of subgrade filler based on the real shape of coarse particles.First,an improved Viola-Jones algorithm is employed to establish a digitalized 2D particle database for coarse particle shape evaluation and discrete modeling purposes of subgrade filler.Shape indexes of 2D subgrade filler are then computed and statistically analyzed.Finally,numerical simulations are performed to quantitatively investigate the effects of the aspect ratio(AR)and interparticle friction coefficient(μ)on the macro-and micro-mechanical compaction characteristics of subgrade filler based on the discrete element method(DEM).The results show that with the increasing AR,the coarse particles are narrower,leading to the increasing movement of fine particles during compaction,which indicates that it is difficult for slender coarse particles to inhibit the migration of fine particles.Moreover,the average displacement of particles is strongly influenced by the AR,indicating that their occlusion under power relies on particle shapes.The dis-placement and velocity of fine particles are much greater than those of the coarse particles,which shows that compaction is primarily a migration of fine particles.Under the cyclic load,the interparticle friction coefficientμhas little effect on the internal structure of the sample;under the quasi-static loads,however,the increase inμwill lead to a significant increase in the porosity of the sample.This study could not only provide a novel approach to investigate the compaction mechanism but also establish a new theoretical basis for the evaluation of intelligent subgrade compaction.

Vibration properties of Paulownia wood for Ruan sound quality using machine learning methods

As an important material for manufacturing resonant components of musical instruments,Paulownia has an important influence on the sound quality of Ruan.In this paper,a model for evaluating the sound quality of Ruan based on the vibration characteristics of wood is developed using machine learning methods.Generally,the selection of materials for Ruan manufacturing relies primarily on manually weighing,observing,striking,and listening by the instrument technician.Deficiencies in scientific theory have hindered the quality of the finished Ruan.In this study,nine Ruans were manufactured,and a prediction model of Ruan sound quality was proposed based on the raw material information of Ruans.Out of a total of 180 data sets,145 and 45 sets were chosen for training and validation,respec-tively.In this paper,typical correlation analysis was used to determine the correlation between two single indicators in two adjacent pairwise combinations of the measured objects in each stage of the production process in Ruan.The vibra-tion characteristics of the wood were tested,and a model for predicting the evaluation of Ruan’s acoustic qualities was developed by measuring the vibration characteristics of the resonating plate material.The acoustic quality of the Ruan sound board wood was evaluated and predicted using machine learning model generalized regression neural net-work.The results show that the prediction of Ruan sound quality can be achieved using Matlab simulation based on the vibration characteristics of the soundboard wood.When the model-predicted values were compared with the tradi-tional predicted results,it was found that the generalized regression neural network had good performance,achieving an accuracy of 93.8%which was highly consistent with the experimental results.It was concluded that the model can accurately predict the acoustic quality of the Ruan based on the vibration performance of the soundboards.

Production Capacity Prediction Method of Shale Oil Based on Machine Learning Combination Model

The production capacity of shale oil reservoirs after hydraulic fracturing is influenced by a complex interplay involving geological characteristics,engineering quality,and well conditions.These relationships,nonlinear in nature,pose challenges for accurate description through physical models.While field data provides insights into real-world effects,its limited volume and quality restrict its utility.Complementing this,numerical simulation models offer effective support.To harness the strengths of both data-driven and model-driven approaches,this study established a shale oil production capacity prediction model based on a machine learning combination model.Leveraging fracturing development data from 236 wells in the field,a data-driven method employing the random forest algorithm is implemented to identify the main controlling factors for different types of shale oil reservoirs.Through the combination model integrating support vector machine(SVM)algorithm and back propagation neural network(BPNN),a model-driven shale oil production capacity prediction model is developed,capable of swiftly responding to shale oil development performance under varying geological,fluid,and well conditions.The results of numerical experiments show that the proposed method demonstrates a notable enhancement in R2 by 22.5%and 5.8%compared to singular machine learning models like SVM and BPNN,showcasing its superior precision in predicting shale oil production capacity across diverse datasets.

Landslide susceptibility prediction using slope unit-based machine learning models considering the heterogeneity of conditioning factors

To perform landslide susceptibility prediction(LSP),it is important to select appropriate mapping unit and landslide-related conditioning factors.The efficient and automatic multi-scale segmentation(MSS)method proposed by the authors promotes the application of slope units.However,LSP modeling based on these slope units has not been performed.Moreover,the heterogeneity of conditioning factors in slope units is neglected,leading to incomplete input variables of LSP modeling.In this study,the slope units extracted by the MSS method are used to construct LSP modeling,and the heterogeneity of conditioning factors is represented by the internal variations of conditioning factors within slope unit using the descriptive statistics features of mean,standard deviation and range.Thus,slope units-based machine learning models considering internal variations of conditioning factors(variant slope-machine learning)are proposed.The Chongyi County is selected as the case study and is divided into 53,055 slope units.Fifteen original slope unit-based conditioning factors are expanded to 38 slope unit-based conditioning factors through considering their internal variations.Random forest(RF)and multi-layer perceptron(MLP)machine learning models are used to construct variant Slope-RF and Slope-MLP models.Meanwhile,the Slope-RF and Slope-MLP models without considering the internal variations of conditioning factors,and conventional grid units-based machine learning(Grid-RF and MLP)models are built for comparisons through the LSP performance assessments.Results show that the variant Slopemachine learning models have higher LSP performances than Slope-machine learning models;LSP results of variant Slope-machine learning models have stronger directivity and practical application than Grid-machine learning models.It is concluded that slope units extracted by MSS method can be appropriate for LSP modeling,and the heterogeneity of conditioning factors within slope units can more comprehensively reflect the relationships between conditioning factors and landslides.The research results have important reference significance for land use and landslide prevention.

Development of a Quantitative Prediction Support System Using the Linear Regression Method

The development of prediction supports is a critical step in information systems engineering in this era defined by the knowledge economy, the hub of which is big data. Currently, the lack of a predictive model, whether qualitative or quantitative, depending on a company’s areas of intervention can handicap or weaken its competitive capacities, endangering its survival. In terms of quantitative prediction, depending on the efficacy criteria, a variety of methods and/or tools are available. The multiple linear regression method is one of the methods used for this purpose. A linear regression model is a regression model of an explained variable on one or more explanatory variables in which the function that links the explanatory variables to the explained variable has linear parameters. The purpose of this work is to demonstrate how to use multiple linear regressions, which is one aspect of decisional mathematics. The use of multiple linear regressions on random data, which can be replaced by real data collected by or from organizations, provides decision makers with reliable data knowledge. As a result, machine learning methods can provide decision makers with relevant and trustworthy data. The main goal of this article is therefore to define the objective function on which the influencing factors for its optimization will be defined using the linear regression method.

The Verification of the Resonance Prediction Method for Great Earthquake Motion and its Prediction

More than 200 great (strong) earthquakes are examined in this thesis on the basis of the method for prediction of movement resonance of great earthquakes; and through the table of about 20 disastrous or representative earthquakes among them, it is proved that there is still room for breakthrough in the prediction of great (strong) earthquakes. At the end of 1996, I predicted that there would be a great earthquake with magnitude between 7.5 and 8.4 and a series of great earthquakes in Japan Trench in the following 1 or 2 years, and later this prediction was realized. Further study on this method resulted in the formula of epicentre prediction. Recently I also worked out that we can reduce the time of great earthquake prediction and epicentre prediction through the study of the early earthquakes with magnitude ≥≥of M 4. Written predictions on 7 earthquakes with magnitude of M 6 between January, 1998 to September 10, 1998 are proved successful in varying degrees, which will solve the —‘poser set by some authorities in international earthquake research field Short-time ’earthquake prediction is impossible on the basis of contemporary scientific technology.
