The Finite Information Quantity (FIQ) approach offers a novel solution by acknowledging the inherent limitations in information processing capacity of physical systems. This framework facilitates the development of objective criteria for model selection (comparative uncertainty) and paves the way for a more comprehensive understanding of phenomena through exploring diverse explanations. This work presents a detailed comparison of the FIQ approach with ten established model selection methods, highlighting the advantages and limitations of each. We demonstrate the potential of FIQ to enhance the objectivity and robustness of scientific inquiry through three practical examples: selecting appropriate models for measuring fundamental constants, sound velocity, and underwater electrical discharges. Further research is warranted to explore the full applicability of FIQ across various scientific disciplines.展开更多

To compensate for the deficiency of one measurement model, the multiple measurement models are built by the Denavit-Hartenberg＇s notation, the homemade standard rod components are used as a calibration tool and the Levenberg-Marquardt calibration algorithm is applied to solve the structural parameters in the measurement models. During the tests of multiple measurement models, the sample areas are selected in two situations. It is found that the measurement errors＇ sigma value（0.083 4 ram） dealt with one measurement model is nearly two times larger than that of the multiple measurement models（0.043 1 ram） in the same sample area. While in the different sample area, the measurement errors＇ sigma value（0.054 0 ram） dealt with the multiple measurement models is about 40% of one measurement model（0.137 3 mm）. The preliminary results suggest that the measurement accuracy of AACMM dealt with multiple measurement models is superior to the accuracy of the existing machine with one measurement model. This paper proposes the multiple measurement models to improve the measurement accuracy of AACMM without increasing any hardware cost.展开更多

With the aid of the genetic algorithm （GA） that has the powerful global adaptive probabilistic search ability, 24 parameters of the robot are identified through simulation, which makes the pose （position and orientation） accuracy of the robot a great improvement. In the process of the calibration, stochastic measurement noises are considered. Lastly, generalization of the identified kinematic parameters in the whole workspace of the robot is discussed. The simulation results show that calibrating the robot with GA is very stable and not sensitive to measurement noise. Moreover, even if the robot＇s kinematic parameters are relative, GA still has strong search ability to find the optimum solution.展开更多

A cross-line grating with frequency of 1200 lp/mm is replicated on the specimen surface, and the strain can be deduced from the changes in carrier fringes before and after the deformation of an object. Four coherent laser beams are used to obtain the carrier fringe patterns of field U and V. Both theoretical analysis and numerical simulation indicate that the ideal accuracy of strain can be controlled within a range of ±1με. Case study of a plane extension experiment shows that the measurement accuracy of strain can be controlled within the range of ±10με. The average strain values of every row of field U and every column of field V can be obtained by using this method, and approximated strain of every pixel in the whole-field can be further acquired, and thus it is possible to measure tiny strains occurred in a micro-field. The technology in this paper can provide comprehensive information for analyzing related mechanical content in the field of MEMS.展开更多

The algorithm makes theoretical analyses and corresponding deductions on a relative motion model of two satellites, and eliminates the measurement error caused by the equipment delay when a satellite moves at a high speed. Theoretical analysis and simulation results demonstrate that in comparison with the conventional TWTT algorithm, the proposed algorithm can significantly enhance the measurement accuracy of the inter-satellite ranging and time synchronization, and the algorithm is more effective with the relative velocity between the satellites and transmitting delay becoming larger.展开更多

However, this assumption cannot completely meet in the real atmosphere. The subject of this work is to analyze the influence of atmospheric inhomogeneities for wind measurement. Five-beam WPR can measure two groups of horizontal wind components U and V independently, using the difference of horizontal wind components U and V can evaluate the influence of the inhomogeneity of the atmospheric motion on wind measurement. The influences can be divided into both inhomogeneous distribution of horizontal motion and vertical motion. Based on wind measurements and meteorological background information, a new means of coordinate rotation the two kinds of inhomogeneous factor was separated, and the impact in different weather background was discussed. From analysis of the wind measured by type of PB-II WPR(445MHz) during 2012 at Yanqing of Beijing, it is shown that the inhomogeneity of horizontal motion is nearly the same in U and V direction. Both the inhomogeneities of horizontal motion and vertical motion have influence on wind measurement, and the degrees of both influences are associated with changes of wind speed. In clear air, inhomogeneity of horizontal motion is the main influence on wind measurement because of small vertical velocity.In precipitation, the two influences are larger than that in clear air.展开更多

This paper studies the estimate theory and measuring technique of the transverse wave intensity in two-dimensional homogeneous structures. In general, the intensity vector is the sum of the effective intensity vector and the intensity variation vector. Each axial intensity component is proportional to two imaginary parts of cross spectral densities and its estimate is complicated. For the special case where transverse waves propagate in one direction, the intensity variation is zero and the estimate of the intensity is simplified. The intensity technique is formed based on the finite difference principle. Transverse wave intensity can be measured using a pair of two-transducer arrays lying in the orthogonal direction for the general case or a two-transducer array lying in the propagating direction for the special case. In order to assess the measurement accuracy of transverse wave intensify, the coupling loss factors from bending to transverse waves in building structures were measured using the intensity technique and compared with the results predicted and measured using the conventional method. It is shown that the agreement between the results measured using the intensity technique and that by the conventional method is good.展开更多

As noted by Iwueze and Nwogu (2014), there exists a research gap for the choice of appropriate model for decomposition and detection of presence of seasonal effect in a series model. Estimates of trend parameters and seasonal indices are all that are needed to fill the research gap. However, these estimates are obtainable through the Least Squares Estimation (LSE) and Buys-Ballot Estimation (BBE) methods. Hence, there is need to compare estimates of the two methods and recommend. The comparison of the two methods is done using the Accuracy Measures (Mean Error (ME)), Mean Square Error (MSE), the Mean Absolute Error (MAE), and the Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE). The results from simulated series show that for the additive model;the summary statistics (ME, MSE and MAE) for the two estimation methods and for all the selected trending curves are equal in all the simulations both in magnitude and direction. For the multiplicative model, results show that when a series is dominated by trend, the estimates of the parameters by both methods become less precise and differ more widely from each other. However, if conditions for successful transformation (using the logarithmic transform in linearizing the multiplicative model to additive model) are met, both of them give similar results.展开更多

For good estimation of a position and the hot spot temperature it is decided to mount 19 temperature probes on one pole of the 6-pole, 400 kVA. 50 llz synchronous generator. Due to a large number of the probes and because the probes should be glued with the metal epoxy it was assumed that mounting of the probes will disrupt the temperature field of the excitation winding. To get the answer to this question the excitation winding resistance was measured betbre and after mounting the probes, in a hot and a cold state. Temperature rise can be estimated if the resistance ratio in the hot and the cold state is known. The paper also addresses the analysis of the measurement accuracy. The result shows that, there is no significant influence on the temperature when mounting the 19 temperature probes which covered 10% of the pole excitation winding surface.展开更多

文摘We review and compare two definitions of rough set approximations.One is defined by a pair of sets in the universe and the other by a pair of sets in the quotient universe.The latter definition,although less studied,is semantically superior for interpreting rule induction and is closely related to granularity switching in granular computing.Numerical measures about the accuracy and quality of approximations are examined.Several semantics difficulties are commented.

文摘An improved measurement algorithm, based upon the theory of two-way time transfer （ TWTT）, is proposed to measure satellites with high speeds. The algorithm makes theoretical analyses and corresponding deductions on a relative motion model of two satellites, and eliminates the measurement error caused by the equipment delay when a satellite moves at a high speed. Theoretical analysis and simulation results demonstrate that in comparison with the conventional TWTT algorithm, the proposed algorithm can significantly enhance the measurement accuracy of the inter-satellite ranging and time synchronization, and the algorithm is more effective with the relative velocity between the satellites and transmitting delay becoming larger.

文摘Horizontal wind measured by wind profiling radar(WPR) is based on uniform wind assumption in volume of lateral beam. However, this assumption cannot completely meet in the real atmosphere. The subject of this work is to analyze the influence of atmospheric inhomogeneities for wind measurement. Five-beam WPR can measure two groups of horizontal wind components U and V independently, using the difference of horizontal wind components U and V can evaluate the influence of the inhomogeneity of the atmospheric motion on wind measurement. The influences can be divided into both inhomogeneous distribution of horizontal motion and vertical motion. Based on wind measurements and meteorological background information, a new means of coordinate rotation the two kinds of inhomogeneous factor was separated, and the impact in different weather background was discussed. From analysis of the wind measured by type of PB-II WPR(445MHz) during 2012 at Yanqing of Beijing, it is shown that the inhomogeneity of horizontal motion is nearly the same in U and V direction. Both the inhomogeneities of horizontal motion and vertical motion have influence on wind measurement, and the degrees of both influences are associated with changes of wind speed. In clear air, inhomogeneity of horizontal motion is the main influence on wind measurement because of small vertical velocity.In precipitation, the two influences are larger than that in clear air.

文摘Transverse waves are a type of structural waves and should be considered in the analysis of high frequency vibration because the energy carried by transverse waves increases with the increase of frequency and becomes important at high frequencies. This paper studies the estimate theory and measuring technique of the transverse wave intensity in two-dimensional homogeneous structures. In general, the intensity vector is the sum of the effective intensity vector and the intensity variation vector. Each axial intensity component is proportional to two imaginary parts of cross spectral densities and its estimate is complicated. For the special case where transverse waves propagate in one direction, the intensity variation is zero and the estimate of the intensity is simplified. The intensity technique is formed based on the finite difference principle. Transverse wave intensity can be measured using a pair of two-transducer arrays lying in the orthogonal direction for the general case or a two-transducer array lying in the propagating direction for the special case. In order to assess the measurement accuracy of transverse wave intensify, the coupling loss factors from bending to transverse waves in building structures were measured using the intensity technique and compared with the results predicted and measured using the conventional method. It is shown that the agreement between the results measured using the intensity technique and that by the conventional method is good.
文摘This paper discusses comparison of two time series decomposition methods: The Least Squares Estimation (LSE) and Buys-Ballot Estimation (BBE) methods. As noted by Iwueze and Nwogu (2014), there exists a research gap for the choice of appropriate model for decomposition and detection of presence of seasonal effect in a series model. Estimates of trend parameters and seasonal indices are all that are needed to fill the research gap. However, these estimates are obtainable through the Least Squares Estimation (LSE) and Buys-Ballot Estimation (BBE) methods. Hence, there is need to compare estimates of the two methods and recommend. The comparison of the two methods is done using the Accuracy Measures (Mean Error (ME)), Mean Square Error (MSE), the Mean Absolute Error (MAE), and the Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE). The results from simulated series show that for the additive model;the summary statistics (ME, MSE and MAE) for the two estimation methods and for all the selected trending curves are equal in all the simulations both in magnitude and direction. For the multiplicative model, results show that when a series is dominated by trend, the estimates of the parameters by both methods become less precise and differ more widely from each other. However, if conditions for successful transformation (using the logarithmic transform in linearizing the multiplicative model to additive model) are met, both of them give similar results.
文摘Accurate and reliable information about the temperature of the synchronous generators excitation winding hot spot is necessary to determine the dynamic limit caused by excitation winding overheating in the PQ diagram. For good estimation of a position and the hot spot temperature it is decided to mount 19 temperature probes on one pole of the 6-pole, 400 kVA. 50 llz synchronous generator. Due to a large number of the probes and because the probes should be glued with the metal epoxy it was assumed that mounting of the probes will disrupt the temperature field of the excitation winding. To get the answer to this question the excitation winding resistance was measured betbre and after mounting the probes, in a hot and a cold state. Temperature rise can be estimated if the resistance ratio in the hot and the cold state is known. The paper also addresses the analysis of the measurement accuracy. The result shows that, there is no significant influence on the temperature when mounting the 19 temperature probes which covered 10% of the pole excitation winding surface.

文摘An aided Inertial Navigation System(INS)is increasingly exploited in precise engineering surveying,such as railway track irregularity measurement,where a high relative measurement accuracy rather than absolute accuracy is emphasized.However,how to evaluate the relative measurement accuracy of the aided INS has rarely been studied.We address this problem with a semi-analytical method to analyze the relative measurement error propagation of the Global Navigation Satellite System(GNSS)and INS integrated system,specifically for the railway track irregularity measurement application.The GNSS/INS integration in this application is simplified as a linear time-invariant stochastic system driven only by white Gaussian noise,and an analytical solution for the navigation errors in the Laplace domain is obtained by analyzing the resulting steady-state Kalman filter.Then,a time series of the error is obtained through a subsequent Monte Carlo simulation based on the derived error propagation model.The proposed analysis method is then validated through data simulation and field tests.The results indicate that a 1 mm accuracy in measuring the track irregularity is achievable for the GNSS/INS integrated system.Meanwhile,the influences of the dominant inertial sensor errors on the final measurement accuracy are analyzed quantitatively and discussed comprehensively.
文摘In order to accurately measure an object’s three-dimensional surface shape,the influence of sampling on it was studied.First,on the basis of deriving spectra expressions through the Fourier transform,the generation of CCD pixels was analyzed,and its expression was given.Then,based on the discrete expression of deformation fringes obtained after sampling,its Fourier spectrum expression was derived,resulting in an infinitely repeated"spectra island"in the frequency domain.Finally,on the basis of using a low-pass filter to remove high-order harmonic components and retaining only one fundamental frequency component,the inverse Fourier transform was used to reconstruct the signal strength.A method of reducing the sampling interval,i.e.,reducing the number of sampling points per fringe,was proposed to increase the ratio between the sampling frequency and the fundamental frequency of the grating.This was done to reconstruct the object’s surface shape more accurately under the condition of m>4.The basic principle was verified through simulation and experiment.In the simulation,the sampling intervals were 8 pixels,4 pixels,2 pixels,and 1 pixel,the maximum absolute error values obtained in the last three situations were 88.80%,38.38%,and 31.50%in the first situation,respectively,and the corresponding average absolute error values are 71.84%,43.27%,and 32.26%.It is demonstrated that the smaller the sampling interval,the better the recovery effect.Taking the same four sampling intervals in the experiment as in the simulation can also lead to the same conclusions.The simulated and experimental results show that reducing the sampling interval can improve the accuracy of object surface shape measurement and achieve better reconstruction results.
