A visual scripting approach for limit analysis of masonry walls subjected to out-of-plane loads is proposed. To this aim, within a visual scripting framework, an interactive CAD representation of the structure and of the acting loads, boundary conditions, and restraints is coupled with an optimization algorithm to calculate the collapse load multiplier and visualize the related predicted collapse mechanism. The proposed approach can be useful for practical purposes, indeed it allows us to quickly identify the key factors that influence the structural response and, through the tuning of some input data, can furnish some hints for design purposes. The effectiveness of the promoted tool is verified by application to eight well-known benchmark cases.

Principal component analysis (PCA) has shown its high efficiency in process monitoring (PM). However, most of the existing PCA-based PM approaches only consider the spatial prior and ignore the temporal prior. Therefore, in this brief, we propose a novel PM framework using spatiotemporal PCA (STPCA), which incorporates both spatial and temporal priors. Technically, the spatial prior is integrated to preserve the cause-effect relationship of process variables, and the temporal prior is embedded to maintain the geometric structure of process samples. Moreover, an efficient optimization algorithm is developed using the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) in a symmetric Gauss-Seidel (sGS) manner. Finally, the improved monitoring performance is verified on the benchmark Tennessee Eastman (TE) process. In particular, compared with PCA, the fault detection rate of fault IDV(20) is increased by 9.88%. This suggests that the proposed framework is promising for PM.

With the acceleration of economic globalization, competition among manufacturing industries has become increasingly fierce. Automobile manufacturing has always been a critical investment and development industry in different countries. For the automobile manufacturing industry, the logistics scheduling problem of automobile production is affects automobile manufacturing enterprises' ability to compete. This paper discusses disruptive technologies, such as AI, IoT, Big data, etc., to solve production problems. Therefore, production logistics systems research is essential to automobile manufacturing enterprises, to improve production efficiency, reduce production costs, and increase enterprises' economic benefits. We present three kinds of mathematical models designed and calculated by a genetic algorithm, aimed at the Pareto solution set to solve multi-objective optimization, as well as designs for a new contrast flow, which can quickly find the optimal solution and simulate the algorithm.

As modern industrial processes become complicated, and some faults are difficult to be detected due to noises and nonlinearity of data, data-driven fault detection (FD) has been extensively used to detect abnormal events in functional units. To obtain better FD performance of nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF), this article first proposes an FD method using the structured joint sparse orthogonal NMF (SJSONMF). The core idea is to incorporate the graph regularization, sparsity, and orthogonality constraints into the classical NMF, which enjoys stronger discriminative ability, removes redundancy of different basis vectors, and improves fault interpretability. More importantly, an optimization algorithm based on the proximal alternating nonnegative least squares (PANLS) is developed, which can guarantee and speed up the convergence. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated by the experiments on the benchmark Tennessee Eastman Process (TEP) and two practical bearing datasets. Particularly, compared with the classical NMF, the T-2 statistic has a gain of 33.13% for the fault IDV(16) on the TEP. The results show that the proposed model and algorithms are promising for FD.

S Zorb process is one of the main technologies for deep desulfurization of gasoline from fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) process, which by the process will also cause some research octane number (RON) loss of gasoline. Establishing a data-driven model with data mining technologies to optimize production is one of the development directions in petrochemical field. Based on the industrial data from a 1.20 Mt/a S Zorb unit in China in recent three years, 422 modeling samples and 22 modeling variables were screened out and then three data-driven models were established by back propagation neural network (BPNN), radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) and generalized regression neural network (GRNN) to predict RON of refined gasoline (r-RON). The results show that the BPNN model has the best prediction effect and generalization ability. Genetic algorithm (GA), particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO) and simulated annealing algorithm (SA) in combination with the BPNN model respectively were used to optimize the operation variables to reduce the r-RON loss. The results indicate that the optimized performance of PSO-BPNN model is best because of its largest reduction in r-RON loss at 48.55%. The validity of the PSO-BPNN model was verified in the S Zorb unit and the research methods to establish a data-driven model for reducing r-RON loss are also worthy of reference for other S Zorb units.

optimization algorithms are of great importance to efficiently and effectively train a deep neural network. However, the existing optimization algorithms show unsatisfactory convergence behavior, either slowly converging or not seeking to avoid bad local optima. Learning rate dropout (LRD) is a new gradient descent technique to motivate faster convergence and better generalization. LRD aids the optimizer to actively explore in the parameter space by randomly dropping some learning rates (to 0);at each iteration, only parameters whose learning rate is not 0 are updated. Since LRD reduces the number of parameters to be updated for each iteration, the convergence becomes easier. For parameters that are not updated, their gradients are accumulated (e.g., momentum) by the optimizer for the next update. Accumulating multiple gradients at fixed parameter positions gives the optimizer more energy to escape from the saddle point and bad local optima. Experiments show that LRD is surprisingly effective in accelerating training while preventing overfitting.

Some popular functions used to test global optimization algorithms, such as the Branin-Hoo and Himmelblau functions, have multiple local optima, all with the same value of the objective function. That is all local optima are also global optima. This renders them easy to optimize, because it is impossible for the algorithm to get stuck in a local optimum that is not the global one. Such functions actually present an opportunity to create challenging problems for optimization algorithms, because, as illustrated here, it is easy to convert them to functions with competitive local optima by adding a localized bump at the location of one of the optima. This process is illustrated here for the Branin-Hoo function, which has three global optima. We use the popular Python SciPy differential evolution (DE) optimizer for the illustration, because its wide use is likely to imply a well written code. DE also allows the use of the gradient-based BFGS local optimizer for final convergence. By making a large number of replicate runs we establish the probability of reaching a global optimum with the original and weaponized Branin-Hoo. With the original function we find 100% probability of success with a moderate number of function evaluations. With the weaponized version, we found that the probability of getting trapped in a non-global optimum can be made small only with a much larger number of function evaluations.

Purpose - This paper aims to predict Dogecoin price by using artificial intelligence (AI) methods and comparing the results with the econometrics models. Design/methodology/approach - An artificial neural network (ANN) was applied as a prediction method without any optimization techniques. Additionally, the genetic algorithm (GA) is used to select the most appropriate input variables. Additionally, based on the literature review and the relationships between cryptoprice and global indices, 20 economic indicators, such as Coinbase Bitcoin, Coinbase Litecoin and US dollars, along with main global stock indices such as FTSE100 and NIFTY50, are identified as input variables for the model. Lichtenberg algorithm (LA) and aquila optimization (AO) algorithm are used to make the ANN more robust. To validate our algorithms, they have been implemented on daily data for the last three years. To demonstrate the superiority of the models over traditional methods such as econometrics, regression analysis and curve fitting techniques are used. The effectiveness of these models is then evaluated and compared using criteria such as recall, accuracy and precision. Findings - The results indicate that AI-based algorithms not only enhance the accuracy, recall and precision of calculations but also expedite the process without requiring the numerous and restrictive assumptions associated with time series and econometric models. Originality/value - The main contribution of this paper is the application of novel approaches such as AO and LA to improve the predictive capabilities of the ANN method for various cryptocurrencies' prices. It demonstrates the superiority of the proposed algorithms over traditional econometric models using real-life data.
