Calibration curves are essential in quantitative methods and for improving the accuracy of analyte measurements in biological samples. In this study, a statistical analysis model built in the R language (The R Foundation for Statistical Computing) was used to identify a set of weighting factors and regression models based on a stepwise selection criteria. An LC-MS/MS method was used to detect the presence of urinary methamphetamine, amphetamine, and 11-nor-9-carboxy-Δ⁹ -tetrahydrocannabinol in a sample set. Weighting factors for the calibration curves were derived by calculating the heteroscedasticity of the measurements, where the presence of heteroscedasticity was determined via variance tests. The optimal regression model and weighting factor were chosen according to the sum of the absolute percentage relative error. Subsequently, the order of the regression model was calculated using a partial variance test. The proposed statistical analysis tool facilitated selection of the optimal calibration model and detection of methamphetamine, amphetamine, and 11-nor-9-carboxy-Δ⁹-tetrahydrocannabinol in urine. Thus, this study for the selection of weighting and the use of a complex regression equation may provide insights for linear and quadratic regressions in analytical and bioanalytical measurements.

Through the many site investigations, different methods for evaluating stability of rock slopes have been proposed. Those methods, however, may lead to different results depending on the subjective judgments associated with the selection of the evaluation items and the application of weighting factor. Accordingly, binary logistic regression analysis was carried out to ensure fair appliction of the weighting factor, leading to an equation for evaluating the stability of rock slopes.

In this paper, the selection method of weighting matrices in the discrete-time LQ problem are suggested in order to improve the guaranteed stability margins, i.e. the gain and phase margins. The asymptotic properties of the solution of the algebraic Riccati equations are investigated by using the closed form solution of the difference Riccati equations. It is shown that the solution of the algebraic Riccati equations monotonically increases as the state weighting matrix Q or the control weighting matrix R increase. The increasing rate of the solution is shown to be much less than that of R for large R. It is also proven that the guaranteed stability margins increases as the ratio between Q and R decreases.

The aim of this paper is to suggest a design method of the optimal model following control system using genetic algorithm (GA). This control system is designed by applying GA with reference model to the optimal determination of weighting matrices Q, R that are given by LQ regulator problem. The method to do this is that all the diagonal elements of weighting matrices are optimized simultaneously by GA, in the search domain selected adequately. And we design the model following control system to boi1er-turbine equipment by the proposed method. The model following control system designed by this method has the better command tracking performance than that of the control system designed by the trial-and-error method. The effectiveness of this control system is verified by computer simulation.

In this paper we present a neural network approach to select weighting matrices of Linear-Quadratic-Gaussian(LQG) controller for TCSC control. The selection of weighting matrices is usually carried out by trial and error. A weighting matrices of LQG control are selected effectively using Kohonen network. It is shown that simulation results in application of this method to three machine nine bus system are satisfactory.

In this paper, we proposed a new lazy classifier with fuzzy k-nearest neighbors approach and feature selection which is based on reconstruction error. Reconstruction error is the performance index for locally linear reconstruction. When a new query point is given, fuzzy k-nearest neighbors approach defines the local area where the local classifier is available and assigns the weighting values to the data patterns which are involved within the local area. After defining the local area and assigning the weighting value, the feature selection is carried out to reduce the dimension of the feature space. When some features are selected in terms of the reconstruction error, the local classifier which is a sort of polynomial is developed using weighted least square estimation. In addition, the experimental application covers a comparative analysis including several previously commonly encountered methods such as standard neural networks, support vector machine, linear discriminant analysis, and C4.5 trees.

In recent years, it is natural that the development and the maintenance of information systems are strongly dependent on outside service providers for economic reasons, especially in public sector. There has been an unexpected growth in the number of selection activities for outsourcing related works. At this time, selection of the contractor generally considers the proposals received based on the RFP(requested for proposal) and determines the ranking by experts committee. However, it is difficult even for expert giving a specific numeric score in weighting criteria or rating alternatives. In this context, an extended fuzzy TOPSIS method is applied for selection problem of IT proposals. A numerical illustration is also provided to demonstrate the applicability of the approach. This approach is very practical to help decision makers in assessing proposals during the selection phase under uncertainties.

Within a mechanical system such as an automotive the number of standard machine parts is increasing, so that the parts selection becomes more important than ever before. Selection of appropriate bearings in the preliminary design phase of a machine is also important. In this paper, three decision-making approaches are compared to find out a model that is appropriate to bearing selection problem. An artificial neural network, which is trained with real design cases, is used to select a bearing mechanism at the first step. Then, the subtype of the bearing is selected by the weighting factor method. Finally, types of peripherals such as lubrication methods are determined by a rule-based expert system.

This study examines various weighting methods for improving the performance of automatic classification based on Rocchio algorithm on two collections(LISA, Reuters-21578). First, three factors for weighting are identified as document factor, document factor, category factor for each weighting schemes, the performance of each was investigated. Second, the performance of combined weighting methods between the single schemes were examined. As a result, for the single schemes based on each factor, category-factor-based schemes showed the best performance, document set-factor-based schemes the second, and document-factor-based schemes the worst. For the combined weighting schemes, the schemes(idf*cat) which combine document set factor with category factor show better performance than the combined schemes(tf*cat or ltf*cat) which combine document factor with category factor as well as the common schemes (tfidf or ltfidf) that combining document factor with document set factor. However, according to the results of comparing the single weighting schemes with combined weighting schemes in the view of the collections, while category-factor-based schemes(cat only) perform best on LISA, the combined schemes(idf*cat) which combine document set factor with category factor showed best performance on the Reuters-21578. Therefore for the practical application of the weighting methods, it needs careful consideration of the categories in a collection for automatic classification.

The bearing design includes the steps of selection bering type, selection bearing subtype, and determining the peripheral equipments. In this paper decision making methodologies are compared to propose a stepwise decision methodology to the bearing selection problem. An artificial neural network trained with design cases is used for selecting a bearing type in the first step.
