The article presents the possibility of using the Moth-Flame optimization (MFO) algorithm for Abrasive Water Jet machining (AWJ) of structural steel materials. In order to carry out the optimization, an original program was written in Python programming language. In turn, for this optimization process the objective function was determined using the Response Surface Methodology (RSM). Then, a set of control parameters was determined at which the value of the objective function reaches an extreme value. The optimal value calculated based on the Moth-Flame optimization algorithm was compared with the value of the best effect determined experimentally.

In supervised learning using kernel methods, we often encounter a large-scale finite-sum minimization over a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS). Large-scale finite-sum problems can be solved using efficient variants of Newton method, where the Hessian is approximated via sub-samples of data. In RKHS, however, the dependence of the penalty function to kernel makes standard sub-sampling approaches inapplicable, since the gram matrix is not readily available in a low-rank form. In this paper, we observe that for this class of problems, one can naturally use kernel approximation to speed up the Newton method. Focusing on randomized features for kernel approximation, we provide a novel second-order algorithm that enjoys local superlinear convergence and global linear convergence (with high probability). We derive the theoretical lower bound for the number of random features required for the approximated Hessian to be close to the true Hessian in the norm sense. Our numerical experiments on real-world data verify the efficiency of our method compared to several benchmarks.

Hydrocarbons exist in abundant quantity beneath the earth's surface. These hydrocarbons are generally classified as conventional and unconventional hydrocarbons depending upon their nature, geology, and exploitation procedure. Since the conventional hydrocarbons are under the depletion phase, the unconventional hydrocarbons have been a major candidate for current and future hydrocarbon production. Additionally, investment and research have increased significantly for its exploitation. Having the shift toward unconventional hydrocarbons, this study reviews in depth the technical aspects of unconventional hydrocarbons. This review brings together all the important aspects of unconventional reservoirs in single literature. This review at first highlights the worldwide unconventional hydrocarbon resources, their technical concept, distribution, and future supplies. A portion of this study also discusses the resources of progressive unconventional hydrocarbon candidates. Apart from this, this review also highlights the geological aspects of different unconventional hydrocarbon resources including tight, shale, and coalbed methane. The petrophysical behavior of such assists including the response to well logs and the discussion of improved correlation for petrophysical analysis is a significant part of this detailed study. The variation in geology and petrophysics of unconventional resources with conventional resources are also presented. In addition, the latest technologies for producing unconventional hydrocarbons ranging from fractured wells to different fluid injections are discussed in this study. In the end, the latest machine learning and optimization techniques have been discussed that aids in the optimized field development planning of unconventional reservoirs.
