자재 관리는 건설프로젝트에서 소요되는 전체 비용의 50%이상에 해당하는 가장 중요한 현장 관리 중 하나이다. 건설 분야의 자재 관리 방법 증 하나로 무선 주파수 인식(Radio Frequency Identification)을 사용한 관리가 시도되고 있다. 하지만 현재 RFID의 트랜스폰더(Transponder)를 어떻게 그리고 어디에 설치하여야 효율적인 자재 관리가 이루어지는 지에 대한 연구가 미비한 실정이고 어떠한 방법으로 최적화를 하여야 효율적인 설치가 될 것인지에 대한 연구도 이루어 지지 않고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 RFID 트랜스폰더를 공사 현장에서 어떻게 그리고 어디에 설치하여야 효율적인 위치 설정이 될 수 있는지 유전자 알고리즘(Genetic Algorithm)을 이용한 최적화 방법에 대하여 알아본다.

In this paper, we propose a new architecture of Self-Organizing Fuzzy Polynomial Neural Networks (SOFPNN) by means of consecutive optimization and also discuss its comprehensive design methodology involving mechanisms of genetic optimization. The network is based on a structurally as well as parametrically optimized fuzzy polynomial neurons (FPNs) conducted with the aid of information granulation and genetic algorithms. In structurally identification of FPN, the design procedure applied in the construction of each layer of a SOFPNN deals with its structural optimization involving the selection of preferred nodes (or FPNs) with specific local characteristics and addresses specific aspects of parametric optimization. In addition, the fuzzy rules used in the networks exploit the notion of information granules defined over system's variables and formed through the process of information granulation. That is, we determine the initial location (apexes) of membership functions and initial values of polynomial function being used in the premised and consequence part of the fuzzy rules respectively. This granulation is realized with the aid of the hard c-menas clustering method (HCM). For the parametric identification, we obtained the effective model that the axes of MFs are identified by GA to reflect characteristic of given data. Especially, the genetically dynamic search method is introduced in the identification of parameter. It helps lead to rapidly optimal convergence over a limited region or a boundary condition. To evaluate the performance of the proposed model, the model is experimented with using two time series data(gas furnace process, nonlinear system data, and NOx process data).

본 논문에서 게이트레벨 회로의 논리 최적화를 위한 논리적 redundancy조사를 가속화하는 새로운 방법을 제안한다. 게이트레벨 회로의 redundancy 조사문제는 테스트패턴 생성문제와 마찬가지로 유한상태 탐색문제로서, 그 실행시간이 탐색의 크기에 의존한다. 본 논문에서는 효율적인 탐색을 위해, '동적 head line'과 'mandatory 할당' 방법을 제안한다. 동적 head line은 redundancy조사과정에서 동적으로 변경되어, 탐색에서의 backtracking 수를 감소기키며, mandatory 할당은 불필요한 할당을 피할 수 있어 탐색의 크기를 줄인다. 특히 이들 방법은 기존의 테스트패턴 생성문제에서 사용한 방법과는 달리, 회로 최적화에 따른 회로의 변경에 영향을 받지 않고 사용된다. 또한, 이들 방법을 기존의 redundancy 조사시스템에 실현하여, 그 유효성을 보인다.

A damage identification technique using static displacements was investigated to assess the structural integrity of bridge structures. For this, the optimization technique was utilized. In this study, structural damage was represented by the reduction in the stiffness of an element. Next, a health index of the element was introduced to estimate the stiffness reduction of the bridge under consideration. Comparisons with numerical and experimental tests were performed to investigate the applicability of the proposed method in the practical field. Various damage scenarios were considered by varying damage-width as well as damage-degree. The influence of noise on the damage identification scheme was also investigated numerically. Finally, the applicability and the limitation of the proposed method' were discussed.

A more applicable optimization model for extracting flutter derivatives of bridge decks is presented, which is suitable for time-varying weights for fitting errors and different lengths of vertical bending and torsional free vibration data. A stochastic search technique for searching the optimal solution of optimization problem is developed, which is more convenient in understanding and programming than the alternate iteration technique, and testified to be a valid and efficient method using two numerical examples. On the basis of the section model test of Sutong Bridge deck, the flutter derivatives are extracted by the stochastic search technique, and compared with the identification results using the modified least-square method. The Empirical Mode Decomposition method is employed to eliminate noise, trends and zero excursion of the collected free vibration data of vertical bending and torsional motion, by which the identification precision of flutter derivatives is improved.

Evolutionary design related to the optimal design of Polynomial Neural Networks (PNNs) structure for model identification of complex and nonlinear system is studied in this paper. The PNN structure is consisted of layers and nodes like conventional neural networks but is not fixed and can be changable according to the system environments. three types of polynomials such as linear, quadratic, and modified quadratic is used in each node that is connected with various kinds of multi-variable inputs. Inputs and order of polynomials in each node are very important element for the performance of model. In most cases these factors are decided by the background information and trial and error of designer. For the high reliability and good performance of the PNN, the factors must be decided according to a logical and systematic way. In the paper evolutionary algorithm is applied to choose the optimal input variables and order. Evolutionary (genetic) algorithm is a random search optimization technique. The evolved PNN with optimally chosen input variables and order is not fixed in advance but becomes fully optimized automatically during the identification process. Gas furnace and pH neutralization processes are used in conventional PNN version are modeled. It shows that the designed PNN architecture with evolutionary structure optimization can produce the model with higher accuracy than previous PNN and other works.

We introduce an optimization of fuzzy set-fuzzy systems based on IG (Information Granules). The proposed fuzzy model implements system structure and parameter identification by means of IG and GAs. The concept of information granulation was coped with to enhance the abilities of structural optimization of the fuzzy model. Granulation of information realized with C-Means clustering helps determine the initial parameters of the fuzzy model such as the initial apexes of the membership functions in the premise part and the initial values of polynomial functions in the consequence part of the fuzzy rules. The initial parameters are adjusted effectively with the help of the GAs and the standard least square method. To optimally identify the structure and the parameters of the fuzzy model we exploit GAs with successive tuning method to simultaneously search the structure and the parameters within one individual. We also consider the variant generation-based evolution to adjust the rate of identification of the structure and the parameters in successive tuning method. The proposed model is evaluated with the performance of the conventional fuzzy model.

A method of identifying structural parameters such as stiffness and damping coefficients at interfacial points of vibro-acoustic systems is suggested using an optimization technique. To identify the parameters using a numerical optimization algorithm, cost functions are defined. The cost function should be zero at the correct parameter values. To minimize the cost functions using an optimization technique, a design sensitivity analysis procedure is developed in the framework of the multi-domain FRF-based substructuring method. As a numerical example, a ladder-like structure problem is introduced. With known parameter values and different initial guesses of the parameters, convergence characteristics to the exact value are compared f3r the three cost functions. Investigating the contours of the cost functions, we find the first cost function has the largest convergent region to the correct value. As another practical problem, stiffnesses of engine mounts and bushings in a passenger car are identified. The numerical examples show that the proposed method is efficient and accurate far realistic problems.
