  • This paper considers the noninformative priors for the linear function of parameters in the lognormal distribution. The lognormal distribution is applied in the various areas, such as occupational health research, environmental science, monetary units, etc. The linear function of parameters in the lognormal distribution includes the expectation, median and mode of the lognormal distribution. Thus we derive the probability matching priors and the reference priors for the linear function of parameters. Then we reveal that the derived reference priors do not satisfy a first order matching criterion. Under the general priors including the derived noninformative priors, we check the proper condition of the posterior distribution. Some numerical study under the developed priors is performed and real examples are illustrated.

  • This linear fractional - quadratic bilevel programming problem, in which the leader's objective function is a linear fractional function and the follower's objective function is a quadratic function, is studied in this paper. The leader's and the follower's variables are related by linear constraints. The derivations of the optimality conditions are based on Kuhn-Tucker conditions and the duality theory. It is also shown that the original linear fractional - quadratic bilevel programming problem can be solved by solving a standard linear fractional program and the optimal solution of the original problem can be achieved at one of the extreme point of a convex polyhedral formed by the new feasible region. The algorithm is illustrated with the help of an example.

  • Fuzzy linear regression model has been widely studied with many successful applications but there have been only a few studies on the fuzzy regression model with monotonic response function as a generalization of the linear response function. In this paper, we propose the fuzzy regression model with the monotonic response function and the algorithm to construct the proposed model by using ${\alpha}-level$ set of fuzzy number and the resolution identity theorem. To estimate parameters of the proposed model, the least squares (LS) method and the least absolute deviation (LAD) method have been used in this paper. In addition, to evaluate the performance of the proposed model, two performance measures of goodness of fit are introduced. The numerical examples indicate that the fuzzy regression model with the monotonic response function is preferable to the fuzzy linear regression model when the fuzzy data represent the non-linear pattern.

  • This paper propose two test statistics which enable us to proceed the variable selection in Fisher's linear discriminant function for the case of heterogeneous discrimination with equal training sample size. Simultaneous confidence intervals associated with the test are also given. These are exact and approximate results. The latter is based upon an approximation of a linear sum of Wishart distributions with unequal scale matrices. Using simulated sampling experiments, powers of the two tests have been tabulated, and power comparisons have been made between them.

  • Back-propagation neural network (BPNN) is the most prevalently used paradigm in modeling semiconductor manufacturing processes, which as a neuron activation function typically employs a bipolar or unipolar sigmoid function in either hidden and output layers. In this study, applicability of another linear function as a neuron activation function is investigated. The linear function was operated in combination with other sigmoid functions. Comparison revealed that a particular combination, the bipolar sigmoid function in hidden layer and the linear function in output layer, is found to be the best combination that yields the highest prediction accuracy. For BPNN with this combination, predictive performance once again optimized by incrementally adjusting the gradients respective to each function. A total of 121 combinations of gradients were examined and out of them one optimal set was determined. Predictive performance of the corresponding model were compared to non-optimized, revealing that optimized models are more accurate over non-optimized counterparts by an improvement of more than 30%. This demonstrates that the proposed gradient-optimized teaming for BPNN with a linear function in output layer is an effective means to construct plasma models. The plasma modeled is a hemispherical inductively coupled plasma, which was characterized by a 24 full factorial design. To validate models, another eight experiments were conducted. process variables that were varied in the design include source polver, pressure, position of chuck holder and chroline flow rate. Plasma attributes measured using Langmuir probe are electron density, electron temperature, and plasma potential.

  • This paper deals with the solutions of linear inhomogeneous time-fractional partial differential equations in applied mathematics and fluid mechanics. The fractional derivatives are described in the Caputo sense. The fractional Green function method is used to obtain solutions for time-fractional wave equation, linearized time-fractional Burgers equation, and linear time-fractional KdV equation. The new approach introduces a promising tool for solving fractional partial differential equations.

  • Recently, neural network models have been employed as an alternative to regression analysis for point estimation or function fitting in various field. Thus far, however, no theoretical or empirical guides seem to exist for selecting the tool which the most suitable one for a specific function-fitting problem. In this paper, we evaluate performance of three major function-fitting techniques, regression analysis and two neural network models, back-propagation and linear-Hebbian-learning neural networks. The functions to be fitted are simple linear ones of a single independent variable. The factors considered are size of noise both in dependent and independent variables, portion of outliers, and size of the data. Based on comutational results performed in this study, some guidelines are suggested to choose the best technique that can be used for a specific problem concerned.

  • In [20] and [22], the author proved that the union of two linear star-configurations in $\mathbb{P}^2$ of type $t{\times}s$ with $3{\leq}t{\leq}10$ and $t{\leq}s$ has generic Hilbert function. In this paper, we prove that the union of two linear star-configurations in $\mathbb{P}^2$ of type $t{\times}s$ with $3{\leq}t$ and $({a\atop2})-1{\leq}s$ has also generic Hilbert function.

  • This paper presents sliding mode control(SMC) method using target variation rate of Lypunov Function. SMC keeps the response of structure in sliding surface where structure is stable. It can design both linear controller and bang-bang controller. Linear control of previous research, however, can not make most of the performance of controller, because it is designed to satisfy the condition that the variation rate of Lyapunov function is minus. Also, incase of bang-bang controller, unnecessary large control force is generated. Presented method can utilize the capacity of controller efficiently by prescribing the target variation rate of Lyapunov function. Numerical simulation results indicate that the presented control methods can reduce the peak response larger than linear control, and it has control performance equivalent to bang-bang control.
