A kind of fuzzy neural networks FNNs based on adaptive pattern clustering and feature map APCFM is proposed to improve the property of the large delay and time varying of the sintering process. By using the density clustering and learning vector quantization LVQ , the sintering process is divided automatically into subclasses which have similar clustering center and labeled fitting number. Then...

In this paper, we propose a new approach to critical path analysis in a project network whose activity times are uncertain. The uncertain parameters in the project network are represented by fuzzy numbers. We use fuzzy arithmetic and a fuzzy ranking method to determine the fuzzy critical path of the project network without converting the fuzzy activity times to classical numbers. The proposed m...

Fuzzy theory and Bayesian network theory were based on the fault tree. The fault tree analysis method improved the fault analysis to obtain number of event's exact problem. Considering the characteristics of the fuzzy risk analysis at the same time, it also solved the problem of scale fault analysis modeling. The theory is applied to the cost of construction shield tunnel risk analysis, floatin...

Industrial heating furnace has a great deal of special characteristics such as big capacity, long lag and non-linear trait, etc. In order to control it better, we present a sort of fuzzy neural network temperature control model. It can transform the rulers of fuzzy logic control to a pair of input-output samples of multilayer forward neural network.The knowledge is not expressed by a serial of ...

Finding the collapse susceptible portion of a power system is one of the purposes of voltage stability analysis. This part which is a voltage control area is called the voltage weak area. Determining the weak area and adjecent voltage control areas has special importance in the improvement of voltage stability. Designing an on-line corrective control requires the voltage weak area to be determi...

The contemporary manufacturing organisations are forced to adopt advanced manufacturing paradigms for sustaining in the global markets. Supply chain management is an essential ingredient of advanced manufacturing systems since outsourcing gains vital importance. Supplier selection is a vital issue concerned in the process of managing global supply chains. A conceptual model for supplier selecti...

The popularity of modern online social networks has grown up so quickly in the last few years that, nowadays, social network analysis has become one of the hottest research lines in the world. It is important to highlight that social network analysis is not limited to the analysis of networks connecting people. Indeed, it is strongly connected with the classical methods widely recognized in the...
