Geometric modeling (Computer Science)

Weather forecasting is most challenging problem around the world. There are various reason because of its experimented values in meteorology, but it is also a typical unbiased time series forecasting problem in scientific research. A lots of methods proposed by various scientists. The motive behind research is to predict more accurate. This paper contribute the same using artificial neural network (ANN) and simulated in MATLAB to predict two important weather parameters i.e. maximum and minimum temperature. The model has been trained using past 60 years of real data collected from(1901-1960) and tested over 40 years to forecast maximum and minimum temperature. The results based on mean square error function (MSE) confirm, this model which is based on multilayer perceptron has the potential to successful application to weather forecasting.

More and more automobile companies are going for weight reduction of their vehicles for fuel economy and pollution control. At elevated temperatures aluminum sheet alloys 6061 and 7075,  the blank temperature effect on  forming behavior and damage factor of these sheets is the objective of the  present study. In automotive parts the aluminum alloys have good corrosion resistance, high strength to weight ratio and low formability of aluminum sheets limits in some products with complex shapes. The elevated forming process is intended to overcome this problem. An insight into such a study will throw light on the different temperatures required by the above materials when they are made into TWBs. Using ANSYS a series of simulations were carried out in the present investigation on the formability behaviour of deep drawing of aluminium alloys in the temperature range 200-500°C.

Simplicial complexes are extensively used for discretizing digital shapes in several applications. A structural description of a non-manifold shape can be obtained by decomposing the input shape into a collection of meaningful components with a simpler topology. Here, we consider a unique and dimension-independent decomposition of a non-manifold shape into nearly manifold components, known as the Manifold-Connected (MC-) decomposition. We present the Compact Manifold-Connected (MC-) graph, an efficient graph-based representation for the MC-decomposition, which can be combined with any topological data structure for encoding the underlying components. We present the main properties of this representation as well as algorithms for its generation. We also show that this representation is more compact than several topological data
structures, which do not explicitly describe the non-manifold structure of a shape.

In recent years, Indian higher educational institute's competition grows rapidly for attracting students to get enrollment in their institutes.

RapidMiner is a software for machine learning, data mining, predictive analytics, and business analytics. The server will record large web log files when user visits the website. Extracting knowledge from such huge data demands for new methods. In this paper, we propose a web usage mining method with RapidMiner. At first, the redundant files in log file are deleted by Matlab and then we mines web log which has been pretreated with RapidMiner, it obtains the custom of different user to visit the website by processing and analyzing log file, and mines unusual rules, and provides the reference for the policy decision and construction of website. Experimental result analysis show that, applying RapidMiner in web usage mining, will obtain frequent model which user visits the website, manage to optimize the website structure and recommends for users.

We present a new algorithm for the automatic one-shot generation of scattered node sets on irregular 2D and 3D domains using Poisson disk sampling coupled to novel parameter-free, high-order parametric Spherical Radial Basis Function (SBF)-based geometric modeling of irregular domain boundaries. Our algorithm also automatically modifies the scattered node sets locally for time-varying embedded boundaries in the domain interior. We derive complexity estimates for our node generator in 2D and 3D that establish its scalability, and verify these estimates with timing experiments. We explore the influence of Poisson disk sampling parameters on both quasi-uniformity in the node sets and errors in an RBF-FD discretization of the heat equation. In all cases, our framework requires only a small number of "seed" nodes on domain boundaries. The entire framework exhibits O(N) complexity in both 2D and 3D.

We have researched a gondola-typed building façade maintenance robot system. Its main goal is to paint reinforced concrete walls as fast and wide as possible. We applied a horizontal array of painting spray nozzles which have uniform heights. In order to apply them to the gondola robot, a painting scenario is designed. Basically, when the gondola robot goes from the bottom to the top of the wall, wall shape recognition is executed. While it goes down, the nozzles are turned on and off in accordance with the wall shape.

This paper aims at presenting a parametric shape grammar of traditional Suakin houses (Red Sea state, Sudan). This work systematically attempts to generate appropriate plans arrangement that allows required functional relationships between spaces to be satisfied. The topological and geometrical properties of old Suakin houses were analyzed. These properties were originated and incorporated into the traditional Suakin buildings for the past ten centuries. The shape rules, dimensional, geometric and topological patterns of houses in the corpus are used as the generative model for the language of traditional suakin style This paper concludes with a discussion of the creative and generative value of the parametric shape grammars. Moreover, it facilitates the understanding of the formal composition of Suakin old style and the revival of a contemporary Suakin building style.

This article proposes a technique for the geometrically stable modeling of high-degree B-spline curves based on S-polygon in a float format, which will allow the accurate positioning of the end points of curves and the direction of the tangent vectors. The method of shape approximation is described with the purpose of providing geometrical proximity between the original and approximating curve. The content of the notion of a "harmonious, regular form" of B-spline curve's S-polygon in a float format is revealed as a factor in achieving a high-quality of fit for the generated curve. The expediency of the shape modeling method based on S-polygon in a float format at the end portions of the curve for quality control of curve modeling and editing is substantiated. The results of a comparative test are presented, demonstrating the superlative efficacy of using the Mineur-Farin configuration for constructing constant and monotone curvature curves based on an S-polygon in a float format. The findings presented in this article confirm that it is preferable to employ the principle of "constructing a control polygon of a harmonious form (or the Mineur-Farin configuration) of a parametric polynomial" to a B-spline curve's S-polygon in a float format, and not to a B-polygon of the Bézier curve. Recommendations are given for prospective studies in the field of applying the technique of constructing a high-quality B-spline curves to the approximation of log-aesthetic curves, Ziatdinov's superspirals, etc. The authors of the article developed a technique for constructing smooth connections of B-spline curves with ensuring a high order of smoothness of the composite curve. The proposed techniques are implemented in the FairCurveModeler program as a plug-in to engineering CAD systems.

A large no. of automobile companies finding a convinient way to manage design changes with the use of various PLM techniques. Change in any product is something that should occur on timely basis to match up with customer requirement and cost reduction. The change made in the vehicle designs directly affects various concerned agencies. Automobile Vehicle structures contains thousands of parts and if there is any change is occurring in child parts then it becomes important to track that impacted part, propose a solution on that part and release a new assembly structure with feasible changes such that all efforts need to be done for cost reduction.

Superspirals include a very broad family of monotonic curvature curves, whose radius of curvature is defined by a completely monotonic Gauss hypergeometric function. They are generalizations of log-aesthetic curves, and other curves whose radius of curvature is a particular case of a completely monotonic Gauss hypergeometric function. In this work, we study superspirals of confluent type via similarity geometry. Through a detailed investigation of the similarity curvatures of superspirals of confluent type, we find a new class of planar curves with monotone curvature in terms of Tricomi confluent hypergeometric function. Moreover, the proposed ideas will be our guide to expanding superspirals.

The rapid growth of Internet has revolutionized online news reporting. Many users tend to use online news websites to obtain news information. When considering Sri Lanka, there are numerous news websites, which are subscribed on a daily basis. With the rise in this number of news websites, the Sri Lankan authorities of media face the issue of lacking a proper methodology or a tool which is capable of tracking and regulating publications made by different disseminators of news. This paper proposes a News Agent toolbox which periodically extracts news articles and associated comments with the aid of a concept called Mapping Rules; to classify them into Personalized Categories defined in terms of keywords based Category Profiles. The proposed tool also analyzes comments made by the readers with the aid of simple statistical techniques to discover the most popular news articles and fluctuations in popularity of news stories.

We develop a new symbolic-numeric algorithm for the certification of singular isolated points, using their associated local ring structure and certified numerical computations. An improvement of an existing method to compute inverse systems is presented, which avoids redundant computation and reduces the size of the intermediate linear systems to solve. We derive a one-step deflation technique, from the description of the multiplicity structure in terms of differentials. The deflated system can be used in Newton-based iterative schemes with quadratic convergence. Starting from a polynomial system and a small-enough neighborhood, we obtain a criterion for the existence and uniqueness of a singular root of a given multiplicity structure, applying a well-chosen symbolic perturbation. Standard verification methods, based eg. on interval arithmetic and a fixed point theorem, are employed to certify that there exists a unique perturbed system with a singular root in the domain. Applications to topological degree computation and to the analysis of real branches of an implicit curve illustrate the method.

The platform developed acts as power on vehicle for the silicon chips. This Printed Circuit Board design that serves as a validation platform is foundational to the semiconductor industry. The manual/repetitive design activities that accompany the development of this board must be minimized to achieve high quality, improve design efficiency, and eliminate human-errors. One of the time consuming tasks in the board design is the Trace Length matching. The paper aims to reduce the length matching time by automating it using SKILL scripts.

Automatic image annotation has emerged as an important research topic due to its potential application on both image understanding and web image search. This paper presents a model, which integrates visual topics and regional contexts to automatic image annotation. Regional contexts model the relationship between the regions, while visual topics provide the global distribution of topics over an image. Previous image annotation methods neglected the relationship between the regions in an image, while these regions are exactly explanation of the image semantics, therefore considering the relationship between them are helpful to annotate the images. Regional contexts and visual topics are learned by PLSA (Probability Latent Semantic Analysis) from the training data. The proposed model incorporates these two types of information by MCDM (Multi Criteria Decision Making) approach based on WSM (Weighted Sum Method). Experiments conducted on the 5k Corel dataset demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model.
