Target Motion Analysis

Bearing-only target motion analysis (BO-TMA) by batch processing remains a challenge due to the lack of information on underwater target maneuvering and the nonlinearity of sensor measurements. Traditional batch estimation for BO-TMA is mainly performed based on deterministic algorithms, and studies performed with heuristic algorithms have recently been reported. However, since the two algorithms have their own advantages and disadvantages, interest in a hybrid method that complements the disadvantages and combines the advantages of the two algorithms is increasing. In this study, we proposed Newton–Raphson particle swarm optimization (NRPSO): a hybrid method that combines the Newton–Raphson method and the particle swarm optimization method, which are representative methods that utilize deterministic and heuristic algorithms, respectively. The BO-TMA performance obtained using the proposed NRPSO was tested by varying the measurement noise and number of measurements for three targets with different maneuvers. The results showed that the advantages of both methods were well combined, which improved the performance.

Target Motion Analysis

A target angular information in 3-dimensional space consists of an elevation angle and azimuth angle. Acoustic signals propagating along multiple paths in underwater environments usually have different elevation angles. Target motion analysis (TMA) uses the underwater acoustic signals received by a passive horizontal line array to track an underwater target. The target angle measured by the horizontal line array is, in fact, a conical angle that indicates the direction of the signal arriving at the line array sonar system. Accordingly, bottom bounce paths produce inaccurate target locations if they are interpreted as azimuth angles in the horizontal plane, as is commonly assumed in existing TMA technologies. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the effect of the conical angle on bearings-only TMA (BO-TMA). In this paper, a target conical angle causing angular ambiguity will be simulated using a ray tracing method in an underwater environment. A BO-TMA method using particle swarm optimization (PSO) is proposed for batch processing to solve the angular ambiguity problem.

Particle Swarm Method

The mechanical resistance of a locomotive is crucial for power consumption. It is desirable to maintain this resistance at a minimum value for energy efficiency under optimal operation conditions. The optimal conditions can be found by particle swarm optimization with constraints. The particle swarm optimization method is a highly preferred type of heuristic algorithm because of its advantages, such as fewer parameters, faster speed, and a simpler flow diagram. However, fast convergence can be misleading in finding the optimum solution in some cases. Pareto analysis is used in this proposed study to prevent missing the target. When the literature is searched, it is seen that there are various studies using this method. However, in all of these studies, the results of the particle swarm method have been interpreted as whether or not they complied with Pareto’s 80/20 rule. The validity of the Pareto analysis is taken as an assumption, and with the help of this assumption, the coefficients of a locomotive’s mathematical equation were changed, and finally the results were found by applying the particle herd optimization method. Finally, a novel hybrid method has been created by including the Pareto optimality condition to particle swarm optimization. The results are compared with this innovative hybrid method of Pareto and particle swarm and the results found using only the particle swarm method.

Offshore Oil

The offshore oil production industry is currently expanding its activities in even deeper waters, using moored floating platforms submitted to extreme environmental conditions. Therefore, the design of mooring systems to keep the position of such platforms is of vital importance to assure safety and economical feasibility for offshore oil production. In this context, this work presents optimization procedures to find the minimum offsets for floating platforms under environmental loads, taking radius, azimuth, pre-tension and material of the mooring lines as design variables. Considering that such optimization procedures require high computational costs, due to the need of nonlinear static and dynamic analyses with Finite Element models for each candidate solution, among the various meta-heuristic algorithms the Particle Swarm Optimization method (PSO) was chosen due to its simplicity, efficiency and parallel capability. Results of typical systems are presented, which indicate that the method is effective.

Fuzzy Logic Control (FLC) is a reliable control system for controlling nonlinear systems, but to obtain optimal fuzzy logic control results, optimal Membership Function parameters are needed. Therefore in this paper Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is used as a fast and accurate optimization method to determine Membership Function parameters. The optimal control system simulation is carried out on the automatic steering system of the vehicle model and the results obtained are the vehicle's lateral motion error can be minimized so that the movement of the vehicle can always be maintained on the expected trajectory

Purpose – The purpose of the paper is to propose a new optimization algorithm to realize a synchronous optimization of sensor array and classifier, to improve the performance of E-nose in the detection of wound infection. When an electronic nose (E-nose) is used to detect the wound infection, sensor array’s optimization and parameters’ setting of classifier have a strong impact on the classification accuracy. Design/methodology/approach – An enhanced quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization based on genetic algorithm, genetic quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization (G-QPSO), is proposed to realize a synchronous optimization of sensor array and classifier. The importance-factor (I-F) method is used to weight the sensors of E-nose by its degree of importance in classification. Both radical basis function network and support vector machine are used for classification. Findings – The classification accuracy of E-nose is the highest when the weighting coefficients of the I-F method and classifier’s parameters are optimized by G-QPSO. All results make it clear that the proposed method is an ideal optimization method of E-nose in the detection of wound infection. Research limitations/implications – To make the proposed optimization method more effective, the key point of further research is to enhance the classifier of E-nose. Practical implications – In this paper, E-nose is used to distinguish the class of wound infection; meanwhile, G-QPSO is used to realize a synchronous optimization of sensor array and classifier of E-nose. These are all important for E-nose to realize its clinical application in wound monitoring. Originality/value – The innovative concept improves the performance of E-nose in wound monitoring and paves the way for the clinical detection of E-nose.
