Eddy-current testing with the Expected Improvement optimization algorithm
This paper presents an inverse problem methodology in the domain of non-destructive testing, and more precisely eddy-current testing. Our objective is to use a precise but expensive-to-evaluate model of the electromagnetic induction phenomenon in a conductive material and to estimate the characteristics of a flaw by minimization of a regularized criterion with the Expected Improvement (EI) glob...
متن کاملImproving the Expected Improvement Algorithm
The expected improvement (EI) algorithm is a popular strategy for information collection in optimization under uncertainty. The algorithm is widely known to be too greedy, but nevertheless enjoys wide use due to its simplicity and ability to handle uncertainty and noise in a coherent decision theoretic framework. To provide rigorous insight into EI, we study its properties in a simple setting o...
متن کاملMetamodels as Input of an Optimization Algorithm for Solving an Inverse Eddy Current Testing Problem
A new mean of solution of eddy current testing (ECT) inverse problems is presented herein. The aim is to characterize a defect within a generic work piece by inverting an ECT signal in a short time (less than 5 s on a standard PC). The inverse problem is solved using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). As inputs of this algorithm, a metamodel is used in order to reduce the computation load and t...
متن کاملA new expected-improvement algorithm for continuous minimax optimization
Worst-case design is important whenever robustness to adverse environmental conditions must be ensured regardless of their probability. It leads to minimax optimization, which is most often treated assuming that prior knowledge makes the worst environmental conditions obvious, or that a closed-form expression for the performance index is available. This paper considers the important situation w...
متن کاملHigh Frequency Eddy Current Testing
This paper presents a nondestructive, high frequency electromagnetic evaluation method which can be applied for the examination of periodic conductive strips or conductive fibers using the evanescent modes generated in slits or in dielectric insulation between conductive fibers. For the detection of evanescent waves we propose the use of lenses with metamaterials, both conical Swiss roll type a...
