A novel optimal single machine replacement policy using a single as well as a two-stage decision making process is proposed based on the quality of items produced. In a stage of this policy, if the number of defective items in a sample of produced items is more than an upper threshold, the machine is replaced. However, the machine is not replaced if the number of defective items is less than ...

Fault diagnosis has always been an essential aspect of control system design. This is necessary due to the growing demand for increased performance and safety of industrial systems is discussed. Support vector machine classifier is a new technique based on statistical learning theory and is designed to reduce structural bias. Support vector machine classification in many applications in v...

A practical scenario of PPML is where only one central party has the entire data on which the ML algorithm has to be learned. Agrawal and Ramakrishnan [1] proposed the first method to learn a Decision Tree classifier on a database without revealing any information about individual records. They consider public model private data setting where the algorithm and its parameters are public whereas ...

Usage of flywheel energy storage system (FESS) is a common method for frequency regulation due to its high power injection capacity and long life time. FESS is equipped by two back-to-back inverters including grid-side inverter and machine-side inverter. In conventional method, the machine-side inverter sets the active power and machine flux while grid-side inverter sets the reactive power and ...

Three phases are considered for multiple response optimization (MRO) problems. They are design of experiments, modeling and optimization. Committee machines (CM) as a set of some experts such as some artificial neural networks (ANNs) can be applied for modeling phase. Then, genetic algorithm (GA) determines the final solution with object maximizing the global desirability as optimization phase....

a r t i c l e i n f o Keywords: High performance work system Host country nationals Relational psychological contract Job performance This study argues that multinational corporations (MNCs) which implement high performance work system in their host country nationals may help their workers form relational psychological contracts with the MNC. Such practices can increase host country national wo...

This paper presents work in progress on a machine learning method for classification of morphosemantic relations between verb and noun synsets. The training data comprises 5,584 verb–noun synset pairs from the Bulgarian WordNet, where the morphosemantic relations were automatically transferred from the Princeton WordNet morphosemantic database. The machine learning is based on 4 features (verb ...
