To solve these problems, we propose to use a pruning Bayesian neural network （PBNN） nonlinear inversion method and a sample design method based on the K-medoids clustering algorithm. In the sample design method, the training samples of the neural network are designed according to the prior information provided by the K-medoids clustering results; thus, the training process of the neural network is well guided. The proposed PBNN, based on Bayesian regularization, is used to select the hidden layer structure by assessing the effect of each hidden neuron to the inversion results. Then, the hyperparameter αk, which is based on the generalized mean, is chosen to guide the pruning process according to the prior distribution of the training samples under the small-sample condition. The proposed algorithm is more efficient than other common adaptive regularization methods in geophysics. The inversion of synthetic data and field data suggests that the proposed method suppresses the noise in the neural network training stage and enhances the generalization. The inversion results with the proposed method are better than those of the BPNN, RBFNN, and RRBFNN inversion methods as well as the conventional least squares inversion.展开更多

To address this issue, a novel prediction method for machine tool thermal error based on Bayesian networks (BNs) was presented. The method described causal relationships of factors inducing thermal deformation by graph theory and estimated the thermal error by Bayesian statistical techniques. Due to the effective combination of domain knowledge and sampled data, the BN method could adapt to the change of running state of machine, and obtain satisfactory prediction accuracy. Ex- periments on spindle thermal deformation were conducted to evaluate the modeling performance. Experimental results indicate that the BN method performs far better than the least squares (LS) analysis in terms of modeling estimation accuracy.展开更多

An essential problem about discrete BNs is learning conditional probability table (CPT) parameters. If training data are sparse, purely data-driven methods often fail to learn accurate parameters. Then, expert judgments can be introduced to overcome this challenge. Parameter constraints deduced from expert judgments can cause parameter estimates to be consistent with domain knowledge. In addition, Dirichlet priors contain information that helps improve learning accuracy. This paper proposes a constrained Bayesian estimation approach to learn CPTs by incorporating constraints and Dirichlet priors. First, a posterior distribution of BN parameters is developed over a restricted parameter space based on training data and Dirichlet priors. Then, the expectation of the posterior distribution is taken as a parameter estimation. As it is difficult to directly compute the expectation for a continuous distribution with an irregular feasible domain, we apply the Monte Carlo method to approximate it. In the experiments on learning standard BNs, the proposed method outperforms competing methods. It suggests that the proposed method can facilitate solving real-world problems. Additionally, a case study of Wine data demonstrates that the proposed method achieves the highest classification accuracy.展开更多

With the aim of further increasing the accuracy of ordering based search methods, we first propose to increase the search space, which can facilitate escaping from the local optima. We present our search operators with majorizations, which are easy to implement. Experiments show that the proposed algorithm can obtain significantly more accurate results. With regard to the problem of the decrease on efficiency due to the increase of the search space, we then propose to add path priors as constraints into the swap process. We analyze the coefficient which may influence the performance of the proposed algorithm, the experiments show that the constraints can enhance the efficiency greatly, while has little effect on the accuracy. The final experiments show that, compared to other competitive methods, the proposed algorithm can find better solutions while holding high efficiency at the same time on both synthetic and real data sets.展开更多

文摘The interaction between the heat source location, its intensity, thermal expansion coefficient, the machine system configuration and the running environment creates complex thermal behavior of a machine tool, and also makes thermal error prediction difficult. To address this issue, a novel prediction method for machine tool thermal error based on Bayesian networks (BNs) was presented. The method described causal relationships of factors inducing thermal deformation by graph theory and estimated the thermal error by Bayesian statistical techniques. Due to the effective combination of domain knowledge and sampled data, the BN method could adapt to the change of running state of machine, and obtain satisfactory prediction accuracy. Ex- periments on spindle thermal deformation were conducted to evaluate the modeling performance. Experimental results indicate that the BN method performs far better than the least squares (LS) analysis in terms of modeling estimation accuracy.

文摘This study presents an application of artificial neural network(ANN)and Bayesian network(BN)for evaluation of jamming risk of the shielded tunnel boring machines(TBMs)in adverse ground conditions such as squeezing grounds.The analysis is based on database of tunneling cases by numerical modeling to evaluate the ground convergence and possibility of machine entrapment.The results of initial numerical analysis were verified in comparison with some case studies.A dataset was established by performing additional numerical modeling of various scenarios based on variation of the most critical parameters affecting shield jamming.This includes compressive strength and deformation modulus of rock mass,tunnel radius,shield length,shield thickness,in situ stresses,depth of over-excavation,and skin friction between shield and rock.Using the dataset,an ANN was trained to predict the contact pressures from a series of ground properties and machine parameters.Furthermore,the continuous and discretized BNs were used to analyze the risk of shield jamming.The results of these two different BN methods are compared to the field observations and summarized in this paper.The developed risk models can estimate the required thrust force in both cases.The BN models can also be used in the cases with incomplete geological and geomechanical properties.

文摘It is unpractical to learn the optimal structure of a big Bayesian network(BN)by exhausting the feasible structures,since the number of feasible structures is super exponential on the number of nodes.This paper proposes an approach to layer nodes of a BN by using the conditional independence testing.The parents of a node layer only belong to the layer,or layers who have priority over the layer.When a set of nodes has been layered,the number of feasible structures over the nodes can be remarkably reduced,which makes it possible to learn optimal BN structures for bigger sizes of nodes by accurate algorithms.Integrating the dynamic programming(DP)algorithm with the layering approach,we propose a hybrid algorithm—layered optimal learning(LOL)to learn BN structures.Benefitted by the layering approach,the complexity of the DP algorithm reduces to O(ρ2^n?1)from O(n2^n?1),whereρ<n.Meanwhile,the memory requirements for storing intermediate results are limited to O(C k#/k#^2 )from O(Cn/n^2 ),where k#<n.A case study on learning a standard BN with 50 nodes is conducted.The results demonstrate the superiority of the LOL algorithm,with respect to the Bayesian information criterion(BIC)score criterion,over the hill-climbing,max-min hill-climbing,PC,and three-phrase dependency analysis algorithms.

文摘Bayesian networks (BNs) have become increasingly popular in recent years due to their wide-ranging applications in modeling uncertain knowledge. An essential problem about discrete BNs is learning conditional probability table (CPT) parameters. If training data are sparse, purely data-driven methods often fail to learn accurate parameters. Then, expert judgments can be introduced to overcome this challenge. Parameter constraints deduced from expert judgments can cause parameter estimates to be consistent with domain knowledge. In addition, Dirichlet priors contain information that helps improve learning accuracy. This paper proposes a constrained Bayesian estimation approach to learn CPTs by incorporating constraints and Dirichlet priors. First, a posterior distribution of BN parameters is developed over a restricted parameter space based on training data and Dirichlet priors. Then, the expectation of the posterior distribution is taken as a parameter estimation. As it is difficult to directly compute the expectation for a continuous distribution with an irregular feasible domain, we apply the Monte Carlo method to approximate it. In the experiments on learning standard BNs, the proposed method outperforms competing methods. It suggests that the proposed method can facilitate solving real-world problems. Additionally, a case study of Wine data demonstrates that the proposed method achieves the highest classification accuracy.

文摘To avoid uneven energy consuming in wireless sen- sor networks, a clustering routing model is proposed based on a Bayesian game. In the model, Harsanyi transformation is introduced to convert a static game of incomplete information to the static game of complete but imperfect information. In addition, the existence of Bayesian nash equilibrium is proved. A clustering routing algorithm is also designed according to the proposed model, both cluster head distribution and residual energy are considered in the design of the algorithm. Simulation results show that the algorithm can balance network load, save energy and prolong network lifetime effectively.

文摘In the traditional reliability evaluation based on the Bayesian method,the failure probability of nodes is usually expressed by the average failure rate within a period of time.Aiming at the shortcomings of traditional Bayesian network reliability evaluation methods,this paper proposes a Bayesian network reliability evaluation method considering dynamics and fuzziness.The fuzzy theory and the dynamic of component failure probability are introduced to construct the dynamic fuzzy set function.Based on the solving characteristics of the dynamic fuzzy set and Bayesian network,the fuzzy dynamic probability and fuzzy dynamic importance degree of the fault state of leaf nodes are solved.Finally,through the dynamic fuzzy reliability analysis of CNC machine tool hydraulic system balance circuit,the application of this method in system reliability evaluation is verified,which provides support for fault diagnosis of CNC machine tools.

文摘Ordering based search methods have advantages over graph based search methods for structure learning of Bayesian networks in terms on the efficiency. With the aim of further increasing the accuracy of ordering based search methods, we first propose to increase the search space, which can facilitate escaping from the local optima. We present our search operators with majorizations, which are easy to implement. Experiments show that the proposed algorithm can obtain significantly more accurate results. With regard to the problem of the decrease on efficiency due to the increase of the search space, we then propose to add path priors as constraints into the swap process. We analyze the coefficient which may influence the performance of the proposed algorithm, the experiments show that the constraints can enhance the efficiency greatly, while has little effect on the accuracy. The final experiments show that, compared to other competitive methods, the proposed algorithm can find better solutions while holding high efficiency at the same time on both synthetic and real data sets.
