This document discusses uncertainties in reliability analysis and how they affect the probability of failure. It defines probability of failure as the probability that the load will exceed resistance. While higher safety factors are intended to lower probability of failure, uncertainties can prevent this. The conditional probability of failure and fragility analysis are introduced to evaluate probability of failure given load levels. The Drucker-Prager theory for nonlinear analysis is also summarized, which uses an elasto-plastic yield criterion defined by invariants of the stress tensor and material properties of cohesion and friction angle.

This document summarizes a research article about using particle swarm optimization to find different shrinkage parameters (k values) for each explanatory variable in ridge regression, rather than a single k value. Ridge regression is used to address multicollinearity issues in multiple regression analysis. Typically, ridge regression estimates a single k value, but this study uses an algorithm based on particle swarm optimization to estimate different k values for each variable. The study applies this new method to real data and simulations to evaluate its performance compared to other ridge regression methods.
Particle Swarm Optimization based K-Prototype Clustering Algorithm iosrjce
This document summarizes a research paper that proposes a new Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) based K-Prototype clustering algorithm to cluster mixed numeric and categorical data. It begins with background information on clustering algorithms like K-Means, K-Modes, and K-Prototype. It then describes the K-Prototype algorithm, PSO, and discrete binary PSO. Related work integrating PSO with other clustering algorithms is also reviewed. The proposed approach uses binary PSO to select improved initial prototypes for K-Prototype clustering in order to obtain better clustering results than traditional K-Prototype and avoid local optima.

The k-prototype algorithm clusters data with both numeric and categorical attributes but can get stuck in local optima. The proposed method uses particle swarm optimization, a global optimization technique, to guide the k-prototype algorithm towards better clusterings. Particle swarm optimization models potential solutions as particles that explore the search space. It is integrated with k-prototype clustering to avoid locally optimal solutions and produce better clusterings.

Abstract: This paper presents hybrid particle swarm algorithm for solving the multi-objective reactive power dispatch problem. Modal analysis of the system is used for static voltage stability assessment. Loss minimization and maximization of voltage stability margin are taken as the objectives. Generator terminal voltages, reactive power generation of the capacitor banks and tap changing transformer setting are taken as the optimization variables. Evolutionary algorithm and Swarm Intelligence algorithm (EA, SI), a part of Bio inspired optimization algorithm, have been widely used to solve numerous optimization problem in various science and engineering domains. In this paper, a framework of hybrid particle swarm optimization algorithm, called Hybrid quantum genetic particle swarm optimization (HQGPSO), is proposed by reasonably combining the Q-bit evolutionary search of quantum particle swarm optimization (QPSO) algorithm and binary bit evolutionary search of genetic particle swarm optimization (GPSO) in order to achieve better optimization performances. The proposed HQGPSO also can be viewed as a kind of hybridization of micro-space based search and macro-space based search, which enriches the searching behavior to enhance and balance the exploration and exploitation abilities in the whole searching space. In order to evaluate the proposed algorithm, it has been tested on IEEE 30 bus system and compared to other algorithms.
Level set methods are a popular way to solve the image segmentation problem. The solution contour is found by solving an optimization problem where a cost functional is minimized. The purpose of this paper is the level set approach to simultaneous tissue segmentation and bias correction of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) images. A modified level set approach to joint segmentation and bias correction of images with intensity in homogeneity. A sliding window is used to transform the gradient intensity domain to another domain, where the distribution overlap between different tissues is significantly suppressed. Tissue segmentation and bias correction are simultaneously achieved via a multiphase level set evolution process. The proposed methods are very robust to initialization, and are directly compatible with any type of level set implementation. Experiments on images of various modalities demonstrated the superior performance over state-of-the-art methods.
The document describes a method for tracking objects of deformable shapes in images. It proposes representing the matching of a deformable template to an image as a minimum cost cyclic path in a product space of the template and image. An energy functional is introduced that consists of a data term favoring strong image gradients, a shape consistency term favoring similar tangent angles, and an elastic penalty. Optimization is performed using a minimum ratio cycle algorithm parallelized on GPUs. This provides efficient, pixel-accurate segmentation and correspondence between template and image curve. The method can be extended to 4D to segment and track multiple deformable anatomical structures in medical images.
Numerical modeling to evaluate pile head deflection under the lateral loadeSAT Journals
Abstract The complex behavior of pile head deflection under the lateral load can be studied using various analytical methods and the softwares. Often the lateral pile load testing is carried out in the field to confirm the calculated lateral pile capacity. However, even with the use of sophisticated latest softwares, the accurate deflection of pile head cannot be estimated. Hence an attempt has been made in this paper to evaluate the pile head deflection using the field load-deflection data and the corresponding soil and pile properties. A preliminary mathematical model has been developed using a technique of dimensional analysis (DA) to evaluate pile head deflection under different pile diameters, different pile materials and varying soil conditions. The estimated pile head deflection using DA equation is compared with 14nos. of measured lateral pile load test results conducted at the site. It can be observed from this study that, the dimensional analysis can be used effectively to estimate the pile head deflection. More variables based on more field results can be introduced in the mathematical model to increase the accuracy in the estimation of pile head deflection. Keywords: Pile head deflection, Lateral pile load, Dimensional analysis
This paper discusses the possible applications of particle swarm optimization (PSO) in the Power system. One of the problems in Power System is Economic Load dispatch (ED). The discussion is carried out in view of the saving money, computational speed – up and expandability that can be achieved by using PSO method. The general approach of the method of this paper is that of Dynamic Programming Method coupled with PSO method. The feasibility of the proposed method is demonstrated, and it is compared with the lambda iterative method in terms of the solution quality and computation efficiency. The experimental results show that the proposed PSO method was indeed capable of obtaining higher quality solutions efficiently in ED problems.

Abstract. In this study, solar radiation was estimated at 53 location over Turkey with
varying climatic conditions using the Linear, Ridge, Lasso, Smoother, Partial least, KNN
and Gaussian process regression methods. The data of 2002 and 2003 years were used to
obtain regression coefficients of relevant methods. The coefficients were obtained based on
the input parameters. Input parameters were month, altitude, latitude, longitude and landsurface
temperature (LST).The values for LST were obtained from the data of the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer
(NOAA-AVHRR) satellite. Solar radiation was calculated using obtained coefficients in
regression methods for 2004 year. The results were compared statistically. The most
successful method was Gaussian process regression method. The most unsuccessful method
was lasso regression method. While means bias error (MBE) value of Gaussian process
regression method was 0,274 MJ/m2, root mean square error (RMSE) value of method was
calculated as 2,260 MJ/m2. The correlation coefficient of related method was calculated as
0,941. Statistical results are consistent with the literature. Used the Gaussian process
regression method is recommended for other studies.

MPPT for Photovoltaic System Using Multi-objective Improved Particle Swarm Op...Nooria Sukmaningtyas
Making full use of abundant renewable solar energy through the development of photovoltaic (PV)
technology is an effective means to solve the problems such as difficulty in electricity supply and energy
shortages in remote rural areas. In order to improve the electricity generating efficiency of PV cells, it is
necessary to track the maximum power point of PV array, which is difficult to make under partially shaded
conditions due to the odds of the appearance of two or more local maximum power points., In this paper, a
control algorithm of maximum power point tracking (MPPT) based on improved particle swarm optimization
(IPSO) algorithm is presented for PV systems. Firstly, the current in maximum power point is searched
with the IPSO algorithm, and then the real maximum power point is tracked through controlling the output
current of PV array. The MPPT method based on IPSO algorithm is established and simulated with Matlab
/ Simulink, and meanwhile, the comparison between IPSO MPPT algorithm and traditional MPPT algorithm
is also performed in this paper. It is proved through simulation and experimental results that the IPSO
algorithm has good performances and very fast response even to partial shaded PV modules, , which
ensures the stability of PV system.

A Combined Entropy-FR Weightage Formulation Model for Delineation of Groundwa...IRJET Journal
This document presents a study that develops a combined entropy-frequency ratio (FR) weightage formulation model to delineate groundwater potential zones. Digital elevation models and satellite imagery are used to prepare thematic maps of factors like slope and rainfall. These maps are divided into classes and their pixel counts are calculated to determine area percentages. Frequency ratios are then calculated comparing area percentages of each class to the total area. Entropy and information coefficients are also calculated. Finally, weights are assigned to each class for each thematic map by combining the entropy and FR values using the proposed entropy-FR model. This provides objective weights to replace subjective weights. The weighted thematic maps are then overlaid to produce a composite groundwater potential zones map. The

The inverse scattering series for tasks associated with primaries: direct non-linear inversion of 1D elastic media. In this paper, research on direct inversion for two pa-
rameter acoustic media (Zhang and Weglein, 2005) is
extended to the three parameter elastic case. We present
the first set of direct non-linear inversion equations for
1D elastic media (i.e., depth varying P-velocity, shear
velocity and density). The terms for moving mislocated
reflectors are shown to be separable from amplitude
correction terms. Although in principle this direct
inversion approach requires all four components of elastic
data, synthetic tests indicate that consistent value-added
results may be achieved given only ˆDPP measurements.
We can reasonably infer that further value would derive
from actually measuring ˆDPP , ˆD PS, ˆDSP and ˆDSS as
the method requires. The method is direct with neither
a model matching nor cost function minimization.

data, synthetic tests indicate that consistent value-added
results may be achieved given only ˆDPP measurements.
We can reasonably infer that further value would derive
from actually measuring ˆDPP , ˆD PS, ˆDSP and ˆDSS as
the method requires. The method is direct with neither
a model matching nor cost function minimization.

The cost of acquiring information by natural selectionCarl Bergstrom
This is a short talk that I gave at the Banff International Research Station workshop on Modeling and Theory in Population Biology. The idea is to try to understand how the burden of natural selection relates to the amount of information that selection puts into the genome.
It's based on the first part of this research paper:

Immersive Learning That Works: Research Grounding and Paths ForwardLeonel Morgado
We will metaverse into the essence of immersive learning, into its three dimensions and conceptual models. This approach encompasses elements from teaching methodologies to social involvement, through organizational concerns and technologies. Challenging the perception of learning as knowledge transfer, we introduce a 'Uses, Practices & Strategies' model operationalized by the 'Immersive Learning Brain' and ‘Immersion Cube’ frameworks. This approach offers a comprehensive guide through the intricacies of immersive educational experiences and spotlighting research frontiers, along the immersion dimensions of system, narrative, and agency. Our discourse extends to stakeholders beyond the academic sphere, addressing the interests of technologists, instructional designers, and policymakers. We span various contexts, from formal education to organizational transformation to the new horizon of an AI-pervasive society. This keynote aims to unite the iLRN community in a collaborative journey towards a future where immersive learning research and practice coalesce, paving the way for innovative educational research and practice landscapes.
The technology uses reclaimed CO₂ as the dyeing medium in a closed loop process. When pressurized, CO₂ becomes supercritical (SC-CO₂). In this state CO₂ has a very high solvent power, allowing the dye to dissolve easily.

Describing and Interpreting an Immersive Learning Case with the Immersion Cub...Leonel Morgado
Current descriptions of immersive learning cases are often difficult or impossible to compare. This is due to a myriad of different options on what details to include, which aspects are relevant, and on the descriptive approaches employed. Also, these aspects often combine very specific details with more general guidelines or indicate intents and rationales without clarifying their implementation. In this paper we provide a method to describe immersive learning cases that is structured to enable comparisons, yet flexible enough to allow researchers and practitioners to decide which aspects to include. This method leverages a taxonomy that classifies educational aspects at three levels (uses, practices, and strategies) and then utilizes two frameworks, the Immersive Learning Brain and the Immersion Cube, to enable a structured description and interpretation of immersive learning cases. The method is then demonstrated on a published immersive learning case on training for wind turbine maintenance using virtual reality. Applying the method results in a structured artifact, the Immersive Learning Case Sheet, that tags the case with its proximal uses, practices, and strategies, and refines the free text case description to ensure that matching details are included. This contribution is thus a case description method in support of future comparative research of immersive learning cases. We then discuss how the resulting description and interpretation can be leveraged to change immersion learning cases, by enriching them (considering low-effort changes or additions) or innovating (exploring more challenging avenues of transformation). The method holds significant promise to support better-grounded research in immersive learning.

The binding of cosmological structures by massless topological defectsSérgio Sacani
Assuming spherical symmetry and weak field, it is shown that if one solves the Poisson equation or the Einstein field
equations sourced by a topological defect, i.e. a singularity of a very specific form, the result is a localized gravitational
field capable of driving flat rotation (i.e. Keplerian circular orbits at a constant speed for all radii) of test masses on a thin
spherical shell without any underlying mass. Moreover, a large-scale structure which exploits this solution by assembling
concentrically a number of such topological defects can establish a flat stellar or galactic rotation curve, and can also deflect
light in the same manner as an equipotential (isothermal) sphere. Thus, the need for dark matter or modified gravity theory is
mitigated, at least in part.
EWOCS-I: The catalog of X-ray sources in Westerlund 1 from the Extended Weste...Sérgio Sacani
Context. With a mass exceeding several 104 M⊙ and a rich and dense population of massive stars, supermassive young star clusters
represent the most massive star-forming environment that is dominated by the feedback from massive stars and gravitational interactions
among stars.
Aims. In this paper we present the Extended Westerlund 1 and 2 Open Clusters Survey (EWOCS) project, which aims to investigate
the influence of the starburst environment on the formation of stars and planets, and on the evolution of both low and high mass stars.
The primary targets of this project are Westerlund 1 and 2, the closest supermassive star clusters to the Sun.
Methods. The project is based primarily on recent observations conducted with the Chandra and JWST observatories. Specifically,
the Chandra survey of Westerlund 1 consists of 36 new ACIS-I observations, nearly co-pointed, for a total exposure time of 1 Msec.
Additionally, we included 8 archival Chandra/ACIS-S observations. This paper presents the resulting catalog of X-ray sources within
and around Westerlund 1. Sources were detected by combining various existing methods, and photon extraction and source validation
were carried out using the ACIS-Extract software.
Results. The EWOCS X-ray catalog comprises 5963 validated sources out of the 9420 initially provided to ACIS-Extract, reaching a
photon flux threshold of approximately 2 × 10−8 photons cm−2
s
−1
. The X-ray sources exhibit a highly concentrated spatial distribution,
with 1075 sources located within the central 1 arcmin. We have successfully detected X-ray emissions from 126 out of the 166 known
massive stars of the cluster, and we have collected over 71 000 photons from the magnetar CXO J164710.20-455217.

3. Abstract
Ridge regression method is an improved method when the assumptions of
independence of the explanatory variables cannot be achieved, which is also
called multicollinearity problem, in regression analysis. One of the way to
eliminate the multicollinearity problem is to ignore the unbiased property of
. Ridge regression estimates the regression coeffi cients biased in order to
decrease the variance of the regression coeffi cients. One of the most
important problems in ridge regression is to decide what the shrinkage
parameter (k) value will be. This k value was found to be a single value in
almost all these studies in the literature. In this study, different from those
studies, we found different k values corresponding to each diagonal elements
of variance-covariance matrix of instead of a single value of k by using a new
algorithm based on particle swarm optimization. To evaluate the performance
of our proposed method, the proposed method is fi rstly applied to real-life
data sets and compared with some other studies suggested in the ridge
regression literature. Finally, two different simulation studies are performed
and the performance of the proposed method with different conditions is
evaluated by considering other studies suggested in the ridge regression
literature..
