Accurate forecasting of icing thickness has a great significance for ensuring the security and stability of power grid. In order to improve the forecasting accuracy, this paper proposes an icing forecasting system based on fireworks algorithm and weighted least square support vector machine (W-LSSVM). The method of fireworks algorithm is employed to select the proper input features with the pur...

We conduct an empirical analysis to investigate the relationship between thirty seven different source code metrics with fifteen different Web Service QoS (Quality of Service) parameters. The source code metrics used in our experiments consists of nineteen Object-Oriented metrics, six Baski and Misra metrics, and twelve Harry M. Sneed metrics. We apply Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Rou...

this paper concentrates on a new procedure which experimentally recognises gears and bearings faults of a typical gearbox system using a least square support vector machine (lssvm). two wavelet selection criteria maximum energy to shannon entropy ratio and maximum relative wavelet energy are used and compared to select an appropriate wavelet for feature extraction. the fault diagnosis method co...

The problem of slow drilling in deep shale formations occurs worldwide causing significant expenses to the oil industry. Bit balling which is widely considered as the main cause of poor bit performance in shales, especially deep shales, is being drilled with water-based mud. Therefore, efforts have been made to develop a model to diagnose drilling effectivity. Hence, we arrived at graphical cor...

Support Vector Machine has appeared as an active study in machine learning community and extensively used in various fields including in prediction, pattern recognition and many more. However, the Least Squares Support Vector Machine which is a variant of Support Vector Machine offers better solution strategy. In order to utilize the LSSVM capability in data mining task such as prediction, ther...

Background: The recent progress and achievements in the advanced, accurate, and rigorously evaluated algorithms has revolutionized different aspects of the predictive microbiology including bacterial growth.Objectives: In this study, attempts were made to develop a more accurate hybrid algorithm for predicting the bacterial growth curve which can also be ...

Accurate forecasting of fossil fuel energy consumption for power generation is important and fundamental for rational power energy planning in the electricity industry. The least squares support vector machine (LSSVM) is a powerful methodology for solving nonlinear forecasting issues with small samples. The key point is how to determine the appropriate parameters which have great effect on the ...
