The objective of this paper is to reexamine structural analysis methods by considering the cognitive type of uncertainty. Two approaches based an the displacement method for structural analysis are proposed: (1) fuzzy arithmetic approach, and (2) permutations approach. The first approach only obtains approximate solutions. The second approach produces the exact solution but requires move computing time. The behavior of fundamental structural systems was investigated and the results based on the second approach showed that if the modulus of elasticity is a triangular fuzzy number, the member forces can be either fuzzy numbers or crisp values depending on the structural system type. Modified fuzzy division and subtraction were also proposed for solving simultaneous equations with fuzzy coefficients using fuzzy arithmetic.","PeriodicalId":298915,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 3rd International Symposium on Uncertainty Modeling and Analysis and Annual Conference of the North American Fuzzy Information Processing Society","volume":"162 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133939688","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}

Their concerns have centered around providing improvements to the physical condition, water quality effectiveness and terrestrial and aquatic habitat values of degraded stream channels. Accordingly, the engineering community is faced with the task of providing remedial repair design recommendations to facilitate these improvements; however, concise and universally accepted methods for providing these design recommendations currently do not exist. The relative uncertainty in determining the bankfull discharge for gaged and ungaged watersheds is quantified. Based on the results, the use of hydraulic geometry relationships used by engineers to predict the desired stream channel restoration design parameters is assessed.","PeriodicalId":298915,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 3rd International Symposium on Uncertainty Modeling and Analysis and Annual Conference of the North American Fuzzy Information Processing Society","volume":"98 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115173201","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}

For completeness, we use a set of normalized and ordered structuring functions derived from orthogonal polynomials defined on a window. After windowing the given signal, the geometric decomposition of a windowed signal is achieved by applying fuzzy morphological opening sequentially using each of the structuring functions to fit the signal. The resulting representation is made to resemble an orthogonal expansion by constraining the result of opening to equal the adapted structuring function. Properties of the geometric decomposition permit us to develop an iterative procedure to calculate the adaptation parameters. The analysis and synthesis procedures are illustrated for images.","PeriodicalId":298915,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 3rd International Symposium on Uncertainty Modeling and Analysis and Annual Conference of the North American Fuzzy Information Processing Society","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125154682","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 first model is based on the relationship of bankfull channel width and meander wave length, the second is based on the relationship between bankfull channel width and the meander belt width and the third is based on the relationship between bankfull channel width and meander radius of curvature. In this study, watershed and meander characteristics from 24 Maryland streams were collected using both state topographic maps and field investigations. These data were then used to verify, the accuracy and quantify the uncertainties inherent in each of the three models. The determination of regression and physical parameter as well as model uncertainty will aid in a more reliable restoration of natural meander plan form to previously straightened streams.","PeriodicalId":298915,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 3rd International Symposium on Uncertainty Modeling and Analysis and Annual Conference of the North American Fuzzy Information Processing Society","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130024134","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}

Then the extended relational algebra is shown. In order to eliminate the semantic ambiguity, the concept of membership is introduced into each attribute. This clarifies the origin of membership attribute values. What the value of membership means depends on the property of attributes. In order to eliminate ambiguity contained in values of membership attribute those values are expressed by fuzzy values. This clarifies what relationships fuzzy data values have with their membership attribute values. Therefore there is no semantic ambiguity for the values of membership attributes and no ambiguity in the values of membership attributes in our extended relational model.","PeriodicalId":298915,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 3rd International Symposium on Uncertainty Modeling and Analysis and Annual Conference of the North American Fuzzy Information Processing Society","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116696913","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}

However, existing reliability models are unable to calculate the reliability of a system operating in variable conditions. The paper presents a new approach to this problem and discusses two typical cases: one item operating sequentially under different conditions, where the transition points are deterministic; a system consisting of two parallel subsystems sharing a load, where the failure rate of each subsystem is dependent on the load it shares. We show that if the underlying failure time distribution of the item (or subsystem) can be represented by the accelerated failure time model (AFTM), the system reliability at any time can be obtained easily by using the formulas derived in the paper.","PeriodicalId":298915,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 3rd International Symposium on Uncertainty Modeling and Analysis and Annual Conference of the North American Fuzzy Information Processing Society","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134079537","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}

Incentive-reaction pairs are used as a measure for the capacity and responsiveness assessment of each follower module. Learning within the follower modules is performed in a traditional error-based manner (e.g. backpropagation). The allocation of targets and incentives to each follower module, on the other hand, is independent of connection weights; incentive games are used for that purpose. Two important advantages of the new architecture are its physically significant follower module outputs and the context-based enhancement it makes to backpropagation.","PeriodicalId":298915,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 3rd International Symposium on Uncertainty Modeling and Analysis and Annual Conference of the North American Fuzzy Information Processing Society","volume":"72 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134347009","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}
