This paper addresses the optimum design of fault detection systems based on sensor location. A multi-objective optimization problem based on optimal sensor location for fault detection is formulated for linear time invariant system. Measurement outputs are formed by selecting m variables of N available process measurements that ensures a high fault detetion performance. A minimum total measurem...

Cognitive radio arises as a hot research issue in wireless communications recently, attributed to its capability of enhancing spectral efficiency and catering for the growing demand for bandwidth. As a good embodiment of cognitive radio’s unique feature, i.e. making use of every bit spectral resource, spectrum sensing plays a vital role in the implementation of cognitive radio. To alleviate neg...

This research proposes a framework for determining the optimum location of an injection well using an inference method, artificial neural networks and a search algorithm to create a search space and locate the global maxima. A complex carbonate geothermal reservoir (Kizildere Geothermal field, Turkey) production history is used to evaluate the proposed framework. Neural networks are used as a t...
