All rights reserved.Convergence to a unique identification result with an optimum model structure is a goal in rotorcraft system identification. Whether using time domain or frequency domain methods, achievement of this target requires additional tools, startup procedures/algorithms or a-priori information about the plant. In this paper, an adaptive learning based methodology is proposed to improve parameter convergence. The bounded convergence is guaranteed and robust to initial conditions even when there exist redundant derivatives in the initial state-space structure. A converged solution is obtained as a starting point and a typical bias-variance trade-off is performed. The effectiveness of the method is demonstrated through the identification of a Level-D class high-fidelity nonlinear helicopter model. The converged solution and the reduced order model can also be used in other system identification methods/algorithms as a starting identification state.

© 2021 IEEE.This paper presents a Deep Neural network (DNN) system that uses a large set of geometric and categorical features for classification of secondary structure elements (SSEs) in the protein's trace that consists of Calpha atoms on the backbone. A systematical approach is implemented for classification of protein SSE problem. This approach consists of two network architecture search (NAS) algorithms for selecting (1) network architecture and layer connectivity, and (2) regularization parameters. Ea...
CHAOTIC ELECTRON TRAJECTORIES IN QUADRUPOLE WIGGLER FREE-ELECTRON LASER
BILIKMEN, S; ABUSAFA, M (IOP Publishing, 1994-08-01)
The motion of an individual electron in a FEL in a field configuration consisting of an ideal quadrupole-wiggler field and uniform axial-guide field, is shown to be nonintegrable in Hamiltonian formulations and can become chaotic for certain initial conditions. The presence of chaos, which is induced by the transverse spatial inhomogenieties in the wiggler field; and the self-fields produced by the space charge and current, poses limits on the wiggler field amplitude and the beam size for beam propagation i...
Data abstraction method for model checking of real-time systems
Dursun, Mustafa; Bilgen, Semih; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2015)
Model checking consists of automatic techniques for verifying whether a specified formal property holds for a specific state in a given finite-state model of a system. A major limitation of model checking arises in modeling infinite state systems. This limitation is the main obstacle for model checking of real time systems, due to the need for verifying real time constraints and the necessity of considering infinite data domains. Timed automata models are used to successfully cater for temporal behavior in ...
Coarse-to-Fine Matching of Shapes Using Disconnected Skeletons by Learning Class-Specific Boundary Deformations
Erdem, Aykut; Tarı, Zehra Sibel (2009-05-28)
Disconnected skeleton [1] is a very coarse yet a very stable skeleton-based representation scheme for generic shape recognition in which recognition is performed mainly based on the structure of disconnection points of extracted branches, without explicitly using information about boundary details [2,3]. However, sometimes sensitivity to boundary details may be required in order to achieve the goal of recognition. In this study, we first present a simple way to enrich disconnected skeletons with radius func...
Fuzzy association rule mining from spatio-temporal data
Calargun, Seda Unal; Yazıcı, Adnan (2008-07-03)
The use of fuzzy sets in mining association rules from spatio-temporal databases is useful since fuzzy sets are able to model the uncertainty embedded in the meaning of data. There are several fuzzy association rule mining techniques that can work on spatio-temporal data. Their ability to mine fuzzy association rules has to be compared on a realistic scenario. Besides the performance criteria, other criteria that can express the quality of an association rule discovered shall be specified. In this paper, fu...
