چکیده

1. While there have been a number of proposals to integrate dimensional analysis into existing compilers 1, 7, 8, 9], it appears that no one has made the easy observation that dimensional analysis ts neatly into the pattern of ML-style type inference 4, 5, 6]. In this paper we show how to add dimensions to the simply-typed lambda calculus, and we show that every typable dimension-preserving term has a principal type. The principal type is unique up to a choice of basis. 2. Let us x a number N of dimensions. Then we can deene a set of types by: Here we have added a new set of types Q(n 1 ; : : :; n N), representing dimensional quantities. If we set N = 3, and denote the dimensions using MLT in the usual way, then Q(n 1 ; : : :; n N) represents the dimension usually denoted M n 1 L n 2 T n 3 .

Experimental values for adjusting an automatic control valve in gas pipeline transportation

When a natural gas pipeline ruptures, the adjacent automatic line control valves (ALCVs) should close quickly to prevent leakage or explosion. The differential pressure set point (DPS) at each valve location is the main criteria for value setting in ALCV action. If the DPS is not properly adjusted, the ALCV may mistakenly close or it may not take any action at proper time. This study focused on...

Automatic Variable Selection for High-Dimensional Linear Models with Longitudinal Data

High-dimensional longitudinal data arise frequently in biomedical and genomic research. It is important to select relevant covariates when the dimension of the parameters diverges as the sample size increases. We consider the problem of variable selection in high-dimensional linear models with longitudinal data. A new variable selection procedure is proposed using the smooth-threshold generaliz...

Influence of Pipeline Operating Pressure on Value Setting of Automatic Control Valves at Different Pressure Drop Rates

When a natural gas pipeline ruptures, the adjacent upstream and downstream automatic control valves (ACV) should close quickly to prevent leakage or explosion. The differential pressure set point (DPS) at each valve location is the main criteria for value setting in ACV actions. If the DPS is not properly adjusted, the ACV may mistakenly close or it may not take any actions at a proper ti...

Integrating Fuzzy Inference System, Image Processing and Quality Control to Detect Defects and Classify Quality Level of Copper Rods

Human-based quality control reduces the accuracy of this process. Also, the speed of decision making in some industries is very important. For removing these limitations in human-based quality control, in this paper, the design of an expert system for automatic and intelligent quality control is investigated. In fact, using an intelligent system, the accuracy in quality control is increased. It...

Stochastic Sequential Neural Networks with Structured Inference

Unsupervised structure learning in high-dimensional time series data has attracted a lot of research interests. For example, segmenting and labelling high dimensional time series can be helpful in behavior understanding and medical diagnosis. Recent advances in generative sequential modeling have suggested to combine recurrent neural networks with state space models (e.g., Hidden Markov Models)...
