An optimization approach is used to solve the division problem of working area, and a cost function is defined to represent the constraints on the solution, which is then mapped onto the Hopfield neural network for minimization. Each neuron in the network represents a possible combination among many components. Division is achieved by initializing each neuron that represents a possible combination and then allowing the network settle down into a stable state. The network uses the initialized inputs and the compatibility measures among components in order to divide working area.

Energy harvesting (EH) and network coding (NC) have emerged as two promising technologies for future wireless networks. In this paper, we combine them together in a single system and then present a time switching-based network coding relaying (TSNCR) protocol for the two-way relay system, where an energy constrained relay harvests energy from the transmitted radio frequency (RF) signals from two sources, and then helps the two-way relay information exchange between the two sources with the consumption of the harvested energy. To evaluate the system performance, we derive an explicit expression of the outage probability for the proposed TSNCR protocol. In order to explore the system performance limit, we formulate an optimization problem to minimize the system outage probability. Since the problem is non-convex and cannot be directly solved, we design a genetic algorithm (GA)-based optimization algorithm for it. Numerical results validate our theoretical analysis and show that in such an EH two-way relay system, if NC is applied, the system outage probability can be greatly decreased. Moreover, it is shown that the relay position greatly affects the system performance of TSNCR, where relatively worse outage performance is achieved when the relay is placed in the middle of the two sources. This is the first time to observe such a phenomena in EH two-way relay systems.

This study performed robust design optimization of fighter wing planform, considering uncertainty based on neural network model. To construct uncertainty model, aerodynamic performance and their sensitivity were evaluated by 3-dimensional Euler equations and adjoint variable method at experimental points selected from central composite design. In addition, because a neural network model has the advantage of capturing non-linear characteristic, it was possible to predict sensitivity of the aerodynamic performance efficiently and accurately . From the results of robust design optimization, it could be confirmed that the robustness of the objective function and constraints were improved if the variation of uncertainty and sigma level were increased.

Interior permanent magnet synchronous motor(IPMSM) has become a popular choice in electric vehicle applications and so of due to their excellent power to weight ratio. To obtain maximum efficiency in these applications, this paper proposes the neural network control method. The controllable electrical loss which consists of the copper loss and the iron loss can be minimized by the error back propagation algorithm(EBPA) of neural network. The minimization of loss is possible to realize eHciency optimization control for the IPMSM drive. This paper proposes high performance and robust control through a real time calculation of parameter variation such as variation of back emf constant, armature resistance and d-axis inductance about the motor operation. Proposed algorithm is applied IPMSM drive system, prove validity through analysis operating characteristics con011ed by efficiency optimization control.

Time-Space-Time(T-S-T) switching network is modeled as a graceful degrading system. Call blocking probability is defined as a measure of performance. Several performance related measures are suggested under the presence of failure. An optimization model is proposed, which determines optimal values of system parameters of the switching network.

An aerodynamic design optimization system for three-dimensional wing was developed as a part of the future MDO framework. The present design optimization system includes four modules such as geometry design, grid generation, flow solver and optimizer. All modules were based on commercial softwares and programmed to have automated execution capability in batch mode utilizing built-in script and journaling. The integration of all modules into the system was accomplished through programming using Visual Basic language. The distributed computational environment based on network communication was established to save computational time especially for time-consuming aerodynamic analyses. The distributed aerodynamic computations were performed in conjunction with the global optimization algorithm of response surface method, instead of using usual parallel computation based on domain decomposition. The application of the design system in the drag minimization problem demonstrated considerably enhanced efficiency of the design process while the final design showed reasonable results of reduced drag.

In the design of mobile wireless communication system, base station location is one of the most important parameters. Designing base station location, the cost must be minimized by combining various, complex parameters.

This paper shows the 4 kinds of algorithm to be applied to the optimization of base station location for communication system and then compares, analyzes the results and shows optimization process of algorithm.

This paper presents a procedure for the design optimization of a centrifugal compressor. The centrifugal compressor consists of a centrifugal impeller, vaneless diffuser and volute. And, optimization techniques based on the radial basis neural network method are used to optimize the impeller of a centrifugal compressor. The Latin-hypercube sampling of design-of-experiments is used to generate the thirty design points within design spaces. Three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with the shear stress transport turbulence model are discretized by using finite volume approximations and solved on hexahedral grids to evaluate the objective function of the total-to-total pressure ratio. Four variables defining the impeller hub and shroud contours are selected as design variables in this optimization. The results of optimization show that the total-to-total pressure ratio of the optimized shape at the design flow coefficient is enhanced by 2.46% and the total-to-total pressure ratios at the off-design points are also improved significantly by the design optimization.

We introduce a creative approach combining machine learning with optimization techniques to enhance the optimization of the loading pattern (LP). Finding the optimal LP is a critical decision that impacts both the reload safety and the economic feasibility of the nuclear fuel cycle. While simulated annealing (SA) is a widely accepted technique to solve the LP optimization problem, it suffers from the drawback of high computational cost since LP optimization requires three-dimensional depletion calculations. In this note, we introduce a technique to tackle this issue by leveraging neural networks to filter out inappropriate patterns, thereby reducing the number of SA evaluations. We demonstrate the efficacy of our novel approach by constructing a machine learning-based optimization model for the LP data of the Korea Standard Nuclear Power Plant (OPR-1000).
