Generally, the goal of seismic retrofit design of an existing structure using energy dissipation devices is to determine the optimum design parameters of a retrofit device to satisfy a specified limit state with minimum cost. However, the presence of multiple parameters to be optimized and the computational complexity of performing non-linear analysis make it difficult to find the optimal design parameters in the realistic 3D structure. In this study, genetic algorithm-based optimal seismic retrofit methods for determining the required number, yield strength, and location of steel slit dampers are proposed to retrofit an asymmetric soft first-story structure. These methods use a multi-objective and single-objective evolutionary algorithms, each of which varies in computational complexity and incorporates nonlinear time-history analysis to determine seismic performance. Pareto-optimal solutions of the multi-objective optimization are found using a non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II). It is demonstrated that the developed multi-objective optimization methods can determine the optimum number, yield strength, and location of dampers that satisfy the given limit state of a three-dimensional asymmetric soft first-story structure. It is also shown that the single-objective distribution method based on minimizing plan-wise stiffness eccentricity turns out to produce similar number of dampers in optimum locations without time consuming nonlinear dynamic analysis.

In this paper, we discussed the convergence and the properties of an iterative algorithm method in order to improve a bimean clustering algorithm. This algorithm that we have discussed choose automatically an optimum threshold as a result of an iterative process, successive iterations providing increasingly cleaner extractions of the object region, The iterative approach of a proposed algorithm is seen to select an appropriate threshold for the low contrast images.

This paper suggests that sparse code motion algorithm should be used to make the code optimal in the respect of computation and lifetime. This algorithm Is SpCM algorithm, which expand BCM and LCM algorithm. BCM algorithm carries out the optimal code motion computationally and LCM algorithm reduces the register pressure in SpCM algorithm. Generally, code motion algorithm accomplishes the run-time optimal connected with the optimum of computation and the register pressure. Computational cost and consideration of the code size in the register pressure are also added in the paper. The optimum of code motion could be obtained through SpCM algorithm, which considers the code size, in audition to computational optimal and lifetime optimal. The algorithm presented in this paper is the most optimal algorithm in the respect of computation and lifetime, as all the unnecessary code motions are restrained.

This paper presents the optimum design of the brushless motor to maximize the output power per weight considering the design parameter tolerance. The optimization is proceeded by commercial software that is adopted the scatter-search algorithm and the characteristic analysis is conducted by FEM. The stochastic optimum design results are compared with those of the deterministic optimization method. We can verify that the results of the stochastic optimization is superior than that of deterministic optimization.

The author derives a general explicit formula and presents an heuristic algorithm for solving Baker’s model. The examples show that this new approximate solution procedure for determining near optimum inspection intervals is more accurate than the ones suggested by Chung (1993) and Vaurio (1994), and is more efficient computationally than the one suggested by Hariga (1996). The construction and solution of the simplest profit model for an exponential failure distribution were presented in Baker (1990), and approximate analytical results were obtained by Chung (1993) and Vaurio (1994). The author will therefore mainly devote the following discussion to the problem of further approximating optimum inspection intervals.

Optimizing transient response for both tracking reference signals and disturbance rejection is determined by the poles and zeros of the transfer function. Thus, optimal pole assignment and how should weighting matrix for the performance index be chosen is very important to achieve optimum transient response. This paper focus its attention on the choosing and analysis of weighting matrix for optimum pole assignment. Optimum pole assignment is defined for linear time-invariant continuous systems.

Having previously presented an article entitled "Further approximate optimum inspection intervals" in this Journal, here the author derives an alternative set of general explicit formulae using Cardan's solution to a cubic equation and presents a modified heuristic algorithm for solving Baker's model. The examples show that this new alternative approximate solution procedure for determining near optimum inspection intervals is as accurate and computationally efficient as the one suggested in the previous article. Through the examples, the author also indicates the relative merits and demerits of the two algorithms.

In this paper, we propose a content-based audio genre classification algorithm that automatically classifies the query audio into five genres such as Classic, Hiphop, Jazz, Rock, Speech using digital signal processing approach. From the 20 second query audio file, 54 dimensional feature vectors, including Spectral Centroid, Rolloff, Flux, LPC, MFCC, is extracted from each query audio. For the classification algorithm, k-NN, Gaussian, GMM classifier is used. In order to choose optimum features from the 54 dimension feature vectors, SFS (Sequential Forward Selection) method is applied to draw 10 dimension optimum features and these are used for the genre classification algorithm. From the experimental result, we verify the superior performance of the SFS method that provides near $90{\%}$ success rate for the genre classification which means $10{\%}$-$20{\%}$ improvements over the previous methods

In this paper, we consider the case where D2D users and the cellular user share the uplink of the cellular system. We propose an iterative power control algorithm that converges to the optimum power value. Each user iteratively updates its transmit power level according to the interference function. Finally, all D2D users and cellular user that participate in the transmission get the optimum transmit power level. We first investigate the interference structure and define the interference function. Then, we show that the considered interference function belongs to the standard interference function that converges the unique transmit power level. Through numerical examples, the convergence of the proposed power control algorithm is examined in the various transmission scenarios.
