چکیده

majority voting, plurality voting, expert combination, fault-tolerance Voting is a well-known technique used to combine decisions of peer experts. It has wide application in many domains. Voting is used in fault tolerant applications to mask errors from one or more experts using N-Modular Redundancy (NMR) and N-version Programming. It is also used in pattern recognition applications where decisions from several classifiers can lead to better recognition results.

Voting Algorithm Based on Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System for Fault Tolerant Systems

some applications are critical and must designed Fault Tolerant System. Usually Voting Algorithm is one of the principle elements of a Fault Tolerant System. Two kinds of voting algorithm are used in most applications, they are majority voting algorithm and weighted average algorithm these algorithms have some problems. Majority confronts with the problem of threshold limits and voter of weight...

Performance analysis of pattern classifier combination by plurality voting

Plurality voting is widely used in pattern recognition practice. However, there is little theoretical analysis of plurality voting. In this paper, we attempt to explore the rationales behind plurality voting. The recognition/error/rejection rates of plurality voting are compared with those of majority voting under different conditions. It is demonstrated that plurality voting is more efficient ...

Exact Parallel Plurality Voting Algorithm for Totally Ordered Object Space Fault-Tolerant Systems

Plurality voter is one of the commonest voting methods for decision making in highly-reliable applications in which the reliability and safety of the system is critical. To resolve the problem associated with sequential plurality voter in dealing with large number of inputs, this paper introduces a new generation of plurality voter based on parallel algorithms. Since parallel algorithms normall...

Reliability analysis of repairable systems using system dynamics modeling and simulation

Repairable standby system’s study and analysis is an important topic in reliability. Analytical techniques become very complicated and unrealistic especially for modern complex systems. There have been attempts in the literature to evolve more realistic techniques using simulation approach for reliability analysis of systems. This paper proposes a hybrid approach called as Markov system ...
