The ordered weighted averaging (OWA) operator by Yager (IEEE Trans Syst Man Cybern 1988; 18; 183–190) has received much more attention since its appearance. One key point in the OWA operator is to determine its associated weights. Among numerous methods that have appeared in the literature, we notice the maximum entropy OWA (MEOWA) weights that are determined by taking into account two appealin...

Adaptation of Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) systems to a new domain (channel, speaker, topic, etc.) remains a significant challenge, as often, only a limited amount of target domain data for adaptation of Acoustic Models (AMs) is available. However, unlike GMMs, to date, there has not been an established, efficient method for adapting current state-of-theart Convolutional Neural Network (C...

A new method based on principal component analysis (PCA) and artificial neural networks (ANN) is proposed for fault diagnosis of gearboxes. Firstly the six different base wavelets are considered, in which three are from real valued and other three from complex valued. Two wavelet selection criteria Maximum Energy to Shannon Entropy ratio and Maximum Relative Wavelet Energy are used and compared...

In this paper, we introduce a new entropy-like invariant, named Hausdorff metric entropy, for finitely generated semigroups acting on compact metric spaces from a set-valued view and study its properties. We establish the relation between Hausdorff metric entropy and topological entropy of a semigroup defined by Bis. Some examples with positive or zero Hausdorff metric entropy are given. Moreov...

In this paper, we show that in order to obtain the Tsallis entropy rate for stochastic processes, we can use the limit of conditional entropy, as it was done for the case of Shannon and Renyi entropy rates. Using that we can obtain Tsallis entropy rate for stationary Gaussian processes. Finally, we derive the relation between Renyi, Shannon and Tsallis entropy rates for stationary Gaussian proc...

fuzzy decision tree (fdt) classifiers combine decision trees with approximate reasoning offered by fuzzy representation to deal with language and measurement uncertainties. when a fdt induction algorithm utilizes stopping criteria for early stopping of the tree's growth, threshold values of stopping criteria will control the number of nodes. finding a proper threshold value for a stopping crite...

Distributed Energy System (DES), a comprehensive energy utilization system distributed on user side, has been recognized as promising method that can improve efficiency, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and achieve sustainable development. However, the DES is usually driven by various sources, it complex issue to decide composition of system. To incompleteness single subjective or objective ass...
