A new expected-improvement algorithm for continuous minimax optimization
Worst-case design is important whenever robustness to adverse environmental conditions must be ensured regardless of their probability. It leads to minimax optimization, which is most often treated assuming that prior knowledge makes the worst environmental conditions obvious, or that a closed-form expression for the performance index is available. This paper considers the important situation w...
متن کاملContinuous user authentication using multi-modal biometrics
As modern mobile devices increase in their capability and accessibility, they introduce additional demands in terms of security e particularly authentication. With the widely documented poor use of PINs, Active Authentication is designed to overcome the fundamental issue of usable and secure authentication through utilizing biometric-based techniques to continuously verify user identity. This p...
متن کاملDamage identification of structures using experimental modal analysis and continuous wavelet transform
Abstract: Modal analysis is a powerful technique for understanding the behavior and performance of structures. Modal analysis can be conducted via artificial excitation, e.g. shaker or instrument hammer excitation. Input force and output responses are measured. That is normally referred to as experimental modal analysis (EMA). EMA consists of three steps: data acquisition, system identificatio...
متن کاملContinuous Discrete Variable Optimization of Structures Using Approximation Methods
Optimum design of structures is achieved while the design variables are continuous and discrete. To reduce the computational work involved in the optimization process, all the functions that are expensive to evaluate, are approximated. To approximate these functions, a semi quadratic function is employed. Only the diagonal terms of the Hessian matrix are used and these elements are estimated fr...
متن کاملSynthesis of fault-tolerant feedforward neural networks using minimax optimization
In this paper we examine a technique by which fault tolerance can be embedded into a feedforward network leading to a network tolerant to the loss of a node and its associated weights. The fault tolerance problem for a feedforward network is formulated as a constrained minimax optimization problem. Two different methods are used to solve it. In the first method, the constrained minimax optimiza...
