The main difficulty in automating it is the definition of the design and performance spaces, in a way that a computer can generate optimum solutions. Following a different line from the machine learning, and knowledge-based methods that have been proposed, our approach considers design synthesis as an optimization problem. From this outlook, neural networks and genetic algorithms can be used to implement the fitness function and the search method needed to achieve optimum design. The proposed method has been tested in designing a telephone handset. Although the objective of this application is based on esthetic and ergonomic cues (subjective information), the algorithm successfully converges to good solutions.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100123,"journal":{"name":"Artificial Intelligence in Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S0954-1810(99)00014-X","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88458602","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These are almost always governed by applicability limits and the engineer is faced with the problem of choosing the right correlation that would provide design data with acceptable accuracy from a large number which are available. A knowledge based database system (KBDS) has been constructed which assists in the simple formulation of a jet impingement application based on which it retrieves and evaluates the relevant correlation from a database. Where the information in the database does not satisfy this specification the system uses knowledge of the application domain to either select suitable correlations for extrapolation or to modify the database query to select alternative information. The constraints which enable new correlations to be added or the knowledge in the network to be extended to include new geometries and flow conditions whilst maintaining the integrity are described. The operation of the KBDS has been demonstrated with a comprehensive database of correlations for the heat transfer due to the impingement of single and multiple air jets. This application provides typical engineering correlations and hence the techniques described are expected to be widely applicable.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100123,"journal":{"name":"Artificial Intelligence in Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S0954-1810(99)00015-1","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83988980","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The configuration of an optimization algorithm can make a significant difference to the efficiency of the solution process. This article examines the use of one such optimization strategy, branch and bound, for the solution of the classic knapsack problem. It is shown that the best configuration of the algorithm can be data dependent and hence that an ‘intelligent’ optimization system will need to automatically configure itself with the control knowledge appropriate to the problems the user is solving. A two-step approach is taken to configuring the algorithm. First, an analytical learning method, explanation based learning is used to derive a provably correct dominance condition for the knapsack problem. Second, the algorithm is configured with and without the condition, and subjected to a rigorous statistical test of performance, on the user's data, to decide which configuration is the best.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100123,"journal":{"name":"Artificial Intelligence in Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S0954-1810(99)00004-7","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77873518","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In these networks, each node has a fixed number of transmitters and receivers connected to a common optical medium. A multihop topology is implemented logically by assigning different wavelengths to pairs of transmitters and receivers. By using tunable lasers or receivers, it is possible to modify the topology dynamically when node failures occur or traffic loads change. The reconfigurability of logical multihop lightwave networks requires that optimal topologies and flow assignments be found. In this article, optimization of these logical topologies by genetic algorithms is investigated. The genetic algorithm takes topologies as individuals of its population, and tries to find optimal ones by mating, mutating and eliminating them. During the evolution of solutions, minimum hop routing with flow deviation is used to assign flows, and evaluate the fitness of topologies. The algorithm is tested with different sets of parameters and types of traffic matrices and the solutions are compared against histograms of random samples from the solution space. These tests show that the solutions found by the genetic algorithm are comparable with and in some cases better than those found by existing heuristic algorithms.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100123,"journal":{"name":"Artificial Intelligence in Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S0954-1810(98)00019-3","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79016546","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
