A NOVEL 2-D GENETIC ALGORITHM FOR STANDARD PE PLACEMENT IN OPTOELECTRONIC MCM

IntroductionThere are considerable interests in the develop-ment of optical interconnections for multichipmodules ( MCM's) ,since optical interconnec-tions have advantages in size,power,and speedover electronic interconnections for“long”dis-tance communication[1] .Free space optical inter-connection( FSOI) is one of the forms of opticalinterconnections.Differing from electricity'straveling which uses wires for communication,FSOI uses laser light traveling in a transparentmedia.Moreover,…     

ENERGY CALCULUS IN CHINESE LANGUAGESEGMENTATION

IntroductionIn the past twenty years,many Chinese lan-guage processing systems have been developed.Excellent researchers[1～ 3] have led Chinese lan-guage processing into a new era.However,seg-mentation ambiguity problem has not beensolved satisfyingly.The current techniques to eliminate segmenta-tion ambiguity can be classified into two cate-gories:rule- based techniques( strong technique)and statistic- based techniques( soft technique) .Hybrid techniques belong to both.In rule- based techn…

FUZZY METHOD FOR FAILURE CRITICALITY ANALYSIS

IntroductionFailure mode,effect and criticality analysis( FMECA) is a design methodology which putsforward preventive and corrective methods thatmay be taken to improve the reliability of prod-ucts through the analysis of the various potentialfailure modes of the different components of thesystem,their influence on the system and theseverity of their consequences in system design.FMECA is suitable for the study of the influenceof the failure of system components on the sys-tem and can be us…     

NUMERICAL ANALYSIS FOR VIBRATION CONTROL OF BEAMS WITH ACTIVE CONSTRAINED LAYER DAMPING TREATMENTS

IntroductionThe conventional passive constrained layerdamping (PCLD) treatments[1～ 3] are applied tomachines and structures widely over the lastcentu-ry because they are reliable and simple,however,they are not intelligent. Once the damping treat-ments are installed,they can not be adjusted andcan not adapt themselves to changeable environ-ment.Recently,active damping has received in-creasing attention in the aeronautic and astronauticindustries because of its significant and adjustabledamp…     

PREDICTION OF WELDING DEFORMATIONS BY FEM BASED ON INHERENT STRAINS

IntroductionIt is of importance to predict and control theresidual deformations caused by welding pro-cesses to ensure the accuracy of a welded produc-tion.Nowadays there are three ways to deter-mine the welding deformations:( 1 ) empiricalformulas or curves based on the experiments;( 2 ) thermo- elasto- plastic analysis by FEM;( 3)inherent strain method.The empirical formulasare only suited to the cases of simple plates orbeams that undergo a welding cycle close to theexperiment conditions. …

A SPEAKER ADAPTABLE VERY LOW BIT RATE SPEECHCODER BASED ON HMM

IntroductionPhonetic and segmentvocoders are popular tech-niques used in speech coding at rates on the or-der of 1 0 0 bit/s.These coders are based onrecognition/synthesis technique.They use somekind of speech recognition technique to decom-pose speech signals to sequence of speech units,such as phonetic units or speech segment units,and then transmit indexes and durations of therecognized units.The decoders receive this in-formation,and synthesize speech by concatenat-ing typical instances of…
