Inference models using only variables measured online have then been used to made such information available in advance. This study develops predictive models for key mechanical properties of seamless steel tubes, by strength, ultimate tensile strength and hardness. A plant in Brazil was used as the case study. The sample sizes of some steel tube families given namely, yield a particular property are discrepant and sometimes very small. To overcome this sample imbalance and lack of representativeness, committees of predictive neural network models based on bagging predictors, a type of ensemble method, were adopted. As a result, all steel families for all properties have been satisfactorily described showing the correlations between targets and model estimates close to 99%. These results were compared to multiple linear regression, support vector machine and a simpler neural network. Such information available in advance favors corrective actions before complete tube production mitigating rework costs in general.","PeriodicalId":422521,"journal":{"name":"Int. J. Comput. Intell.

The approach contains multi-anterior-layers for feature extraction and one post-layer for one-class classification. The multi-anterior-layers are based on extreme learning machine-based auto-encoder (ELM-AE). Multi-ELM-AEs are stacked in the front hidden layers to extract abstract features from the raw input. The post-layer is based on the reconstruction error-based ELM-AE (Re-ELM-AE) to act as one-class classifier. As the extension of ELM-AE, the decision threshold and function are given in the Re-ELM-AE, which are utilized to identify whether the test sample is faulty. The efficacy of the presented algorithm is demonstrated on a mathematic example and fault dataset from motor bearing. The method has been compared with shallow learning methods such as one-class support vector machine (OCSVM), the Re-ELM-AE, and one multi-layer neural network named stacked auto-encoder (SAE). The experiment results show that the proposed method outperforms OCSVM and Re-ELM-AE in classification accuracy. Though the classification accuracy of the proposed method and SAE is similar, the training and testing time of the proposed method is much lower than SAE.","PeriodicalId":422521,"journal":{"name":"Int.

In this paper, primarily due to the actual demand for the prediction of mine pressure, a practical prediction model Mine Pressure Prediction (MPP) was proposed based on fuzzy cognitive maps (FCMs). The Real Coded Genetic Algorithm (RCGA) was proposed to solve the problem by introducing the weight regularization and dropout regularization. A numerical example involving in-situ monitoring data is studied. Mean Square Error (MSE) and fitness function were used to evaluate the applicability of MPP model which is trained by RCGA, Regularization Genetic Algorithm (RGA) and Weight and Dropout RGA optimization algorithms.

These problems are typically non-convex and strongly NP-Hard. Recently, there has been an increased interest from the evolutionary computation community to model bilevel problems due to its applicability in the real-world applications for decision-making problems. In this work, a partial nested evolutionary approach with a local heuristic search has been proposed to solve the benchmark problems and have outstanding results. This approach relies on the concept of intermarriage-crossover in search of feasible regions by exploiting information from the constraints. A new variant has also been proposed to the commonly used convergence approaches, i.e., optimistic and pessimistic. It is called extreme optimistic approach. The experimental results demonstrate the algorithm converges differently to known optimum solutions with the optimistic variants. Optimistic approach also outperforms pessimistic approach. Comparative statistical analysis of our approach with other recently published partial to complete evolutionary approaches demonstrates very competitive results.","PeriodicalId":422521,"journal":{"name":"Int.
