In this paper we concern the software fault prediction using a multilayer-perceptron neural network, where the underlying software fault count data are transformed to the Gaussian data, by means of the well-known Box-Cox power transformation. More specially, we investigate the long-term behavior of software fault counts by the neural network, and perform the multi-stage look ahead prediction of the cumulative number of software faults detected in the future software testing. In numerical examples with two actual software fault data sets, we compare our neural network approach with the existing software reliability growth models based on nonhomogeneous Poisson process, in terms of predictive performance with average relative error, and show that the data transformation employed in this paper leads to an improvement in prediction accuracy.展开更多

The numerical control kernel of CNC system is divided into the task layer and the motion layer. A five-axis transformation unit is integrated into the motion layer. After classifying five-axis machines into different types and analyzing their geometry information, the five-axis kinematic library is designed according to the abstract factory pattern. Furthermore, by taking CA spindle- tilting machine as an example, the forward and the inverse kinematic transformations are deduced. Based on the new software architecture and the five-axis kinematic library, algorithms of RTCP (rotation tool center point control) and 3D radius compensation for end-milling are designed and realized. The milling results show that, with five-axis functions based on such software struc- ture, the instructions with respect to the cutter's position and orientation can be directly carried out in the CNC system.展开更多

The linear models are used when the rotation angles are small; however, when the rotation angles get bigger, model errors will be produced. In this paper, we present a method with three main terms:① the traditional rotation angles θ,φ,ψ are substituted with a,b,c which are three respective values in the anti-symmetrical or Lodrigues matrix; ② directly and accurately calculating the formula of seven parameters in any value of rotation angles; and ③ a corresponding adjustment model is established. This method does not use the triangle function. Instead it uses addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, and the complexity of the equation is reduced, making the calculation easy and quick.展开更多

In these applications, because the observation errors in original coordinates system are also taken into account, the latter is more accurate and reasonable than the former. Although the Weighted Total Least Squares (WTLS) technique has been intro- duced into coordinate transformations as the measured points are heteroscedastic and correlated, the Variance- Covariance Matrix (VCM) of observations is restricted by a particular structure, namely, only the correlations of each points are taken into account. Because the 3D datum transformation with large rotation angle is a non- linear problem, the WTLS is no longer suitable in this ease. In this contribution, we suggested the nonlinear WTLS adjustments with equality constraints (NWTLS-EC) for 3D datum transformation with large rotation an- gle, which removed the particular structure restriction on the VCM. The Least Squares adjustment with Equality (LSE) constraints is employed to solve NWTLS-EC as the nonlinear model has been linearized, and an iterative algorithm is proposed with the LSE solution. A simulation study of 3D datum transformation with large rotation angle is given to insight into the feasibility of our algorithm at last.展开更多

An Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain (AGL1), constructed by cloning mtl-D into the disarmed plasmid pBin438, was used to infect leaves of the clone YW2. The infected leaf discs were cultured on a medium containing 30 mg.L 1 kanamycin and 500 mg.L 1 cefotaxime. Transgenic plantlets regenerated from the infected leaves, rooted on the medium con- taining 30 mg.L 1 kanamycin. PCR and a Southern blotting test verified that the exogenous mtl-D gene had integrated into the trans- formation plants of the P. tomentosa genome. The mannitol content in control plant was 69 gg.gl FW, and the mannitol contents of the transgenic lines T1 to T5 ranged between 103.7 and 289.5 μg·g^-1 FW. Of the shoots of the control plants 20% survived; on the medium containing 0.6% NaCl, 60% and 70% of two transgenic shoots survived on a medium containing 0.8% NaCI.展开更多
