On an Extension of Condition Number Theory to Non-Conic Convex OptimizationFreund, Robert M., Ordóñez, Fernando, 1970- 02 1900 (has links)
The purpose of this paper is to extend, as much as possible, the modern theory of condition numbers for conic convex optimization: z* := minz ctx s.t. Ax - b Cy C Cx , to the more general non-conic format: z* := minx ctx (GPd) s.t. Ax-b E Cy X P, where P is any closed convex set, not necessarily a cone, which we call the groundset. Although any convex problem can be transformed to conic form, such transformations are neither unique nor natural given the natural description of many problems, thereby diminishing the relevance of data-based condition number theory. Herein we extend the modern theory of condition numbers to the problem format (GPd). As a byproduct, we are able to state and prove natural extensions of many theorems from the conic-based theory of condition numbers to this broader problem format.

Correlation between Corneal Radius of Curvature and Corneal EccentricityFredin, Patrik January 2013 (has links)
Aim: The primary aim of this study was to find if there is any correlation between the corneal radius of curvature and its eccentricity. Method: 45 subjects participated in this study, 24 emmetropes, 18 myopes and three hyperopes. All subjects were free of ocular abnormalities and had no media opacities. All the subjects had normal ocular health and good visual acuity of 1.0 or better for both distance and near. The values for eccentricity and corneal radius of curvature were obtained by using a Topcon CA-100F Corneal Analyzer. Results: For the 4.5 mm zone the only significant correlation between corneal radius of curvature and eccentricity was obtained for the mean of the meridian (p = 0.007). On the other hand, we found no significant correlation for the average of two meridians or for meridian 1 and meridian 2 separately in the 8.0 mm zone. Conclusions: We found no correlation between the corneal radius of curvature and the eccentricity for both zones. In addition, no correlation could be found between the spherical equivalent of the refractive errors and the corneal eccentricity. The reason for not finding any significant correlation between the two entities could be due to factors such as smaller sample size and poor distribution of refractive errors in the sample. Moreover, there may be other factors that could influence the overall corneal shape like eye shape, axial length and corneal diameter, which was not evaluated in this study.

Parameter Estimation In Generalized Partial Linear Models With Conic Quadratic ProgrammingCelik, Gul 01 September 2010 (has links) (PDF)
In statistics, regression analysis is a technique, used to understand and model the
relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables.
Multiple Adaptive Regression Spline (MARS) is a form of regression analysis. It is a
non-parametric regression technique and can be seen as an extension of linear models
that automatically models non-linearities and interactions. MARS is very important
in both classification and regression, with an increasing number of applications in
many areas of science, economy and technology.
In our study, we analyzed Generalized Partial Linear Models (GPLMs), which are
particular semiparametric models. GPLMs separate input variables into two parts
and additively integrates classical linear models with nonlinear model part. In order
to smooth this nonparametric part, we use Conic Multiple Adaptive Regression Spline
(CMARS), which is a modified form of MARS. MARS is very benefical for high
dimensional problems and does not require any particular class of relationship between
the regressor variables and outcome variable of interest. This technique offers a great advantage for fitting nonlinear multivariate functions. Also, the contribution of the
basis functions can be estimated by MARS, so that both the additive and interaction
effects of the regressors are allowed to determine the dependent variable. There are
two steps in the MARS algorithm: the forward and backward stepwise algorithms. In
the first step, the model is constructed by adding basis functions until a maximum
level of complexity is reached. Conversely, in the second step, the backward stepwise
algorithm reduces the complexity by throwing the least significant basis functions from
the model.
In this thesis, we suggest not using backward stepwise algorithm, instead, we employ
a Penalized Residual Sum of Squares (PRSS). We construct PRSS for MARS as a
Tikhonov Regularization Problem. We treat this problem using continuous optimization
techniques which we consider to become an important complementary technology
and alternative to the concept of the backward stepwise algorithm. Especially, we apply
the elegant framework of Conic Quadratic Programming (CQP) an area of convex
optimization that is very well-structured, hereby, resembling linear programming and,
therefore, permitting the use of interior point methods.
At the end of this study, we compare CQP with Tikhonov Regularization problem
for two different data sets, which are with and without interaction effects. Moreover,
by using two another data sets, we make a comparison between CMARS and two
other classification methods which are Infinite Kernel Learning (IKL) and Tikhonov
Regularization whose results are obtained from the thesis, which is on progress.

CÃnicas unificadas em coordenadas polares para uma nova abordagem no ensino mÃdio / Unified conic in polar coordinates for a new approach in high schoolJoÃo Gilberto GonÃalves Nunes 12 April 2014 (has links)
CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeiÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel Superior / Neste trabalho, estudam-se de maneira sucinta as caracterÃsticas e os principais elementos algÃbricos e geomÃtricos das secÃÃes cÃnicas. Inicialmente, foram abordados os trÃs tipos gerais das secÃÃes cÃnicas, enfocando em princÃpio suas formas regulares para, em dado momento, tambÃm se discutir suas formas degeneradas. Verificou-se que, segundo um sistema cartesiano fixado,
à possÃvel estabelecer uma representaÃÃo global das cÃnicas por meio de uma equaÃÃo algÃbrica do segundo grau em duas variÃveis, sendo que qualquer equaÃÃo desta forma,reciprocamente, pode ser identificada, por meio de rotaÃÃo ou translaÃÃo, com a equaÃÃo reduzida de algum tipo particular de cÃnica. Encerrando-se este trabalho, foi proposta uma abordagem inovadora para a lida no ensino
mÃdio desse tÃpico de ensino-aprendizagem riquÃssimo em conceitos bÃsicos de Ãlgebra e geometria elementares, tÃo necessÃrios para uma boa formaÃÃo matemÃtica. Foi proposto que no estudo das cÃnicas se use de forma complementar a maneira alternativa de defini-las a partir de sua excentricidade, convergindo para a equaÃÃo geral unificada das cÃnicas em coordenadas polares. Essa forma generalizada e absolutamente simples de se representar as cÃnicas à tida como facilmente manipulÃvel e reflete em si mesma uma beleza singular da MatemÃtica, a Rainha das CiÃncias. Vale
ressaltar que todo o enfoque dos conteÃdos aqui discutidos foi apresentado numa linguagem bastante simples e de fÃcil compreensÃo, uma vez que este trabalho se destina preferencialmente a alunos e professores da educaÃÃo bÃsica. / In this work, the features and the main algebraic and geometric elements of conic sections were succinctly studied. lnitially, the three general types of the conic sections were discussed, focusing at first on their regular forms and then, in certain moment, discussing about their degenerate forms. It was found that, according to a fixed Cartesian system, it is possible to establish a global representation of the conics through a two-variable algebraic quadratic equation, in a way that, in any equation of this form, reciprocally, can be
identified by means of rotation or translation, with the reduced equation of any particular type of conic. At the end of this work, it was proposed an innovative approach of this rich teaching-leaming topic in basic concepts of elementary algebra and geometry to be applied in high school, as required for good mathematical training. lt was proposed that the study of conic would
be used complementing the alternativa way to define them from their eccentricity, converging to a unified general equation of the conics in polar coordinates. This generalized way and absolutely simple to represent the conical is seen as easily manipulated and reflects on itself a singular beauty of mathematics, The Queen of Sciences. lt is worth to emphasize that the focus of the
content discussed was presented in a very simple, easy to understand language, once this work is preferably intended for students and teachers of basic education.

Phasor Measurement Unit Data-based States and Parameters Estimation in Power SystemGhassempour Aghamolki, Hossein 08 November 2016 (has links)
The dissertation research investigates estimating of power system static and dynamic states (e.g. rotor angle, rotor speed, mechanical power, voltage magnitude, voltage phase angle, mechanical reference point) as well as identification of synchronous generator parameters. The research has two focuses:
i. Synchronous generator dynamic model states and parameters estimation using real-time PMU data.
ii.Integrate PMU data and conventional measurements to carry out static state estimation.
The first part of the work focuses on Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) data-based synchronous generator states and parameters estimation. In completed work, PMU data-based synchronous generator model identification is carried out using Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF). The identification not only gives the states and parameters related to a synchronous generator swing dynamics but also gives the states and parameters related to turbine-governor and primary and secondary frequency control. PMU measurements of active power and voltage magnitude, are treated as the inputs to the system while voltage phasor angle, reactive power, and frequency measurements are treated as the outputs. UKF-based estimation can be carried out at real-time. Validation is achieved through event play back to compare the outputs of the simplified simulation model and the PMU measurements, given the same input data. Case studies are conducted not only for measurements collected from a simulation model, but also for a set of real-world PMU data. The research results have been disseminated in one published article.
In the second part of the research, new state estimation algorithm is designed for static state estimation. The algorithm contains a new solving strategy together with simultaneous bad data detection. The primary challenge in state estimation solvers relates to the inherent non-linearity and non-convexity of measurement functions which requires using of Interior Point algorithm with no guarantee for a global optimum solution and higher computational time. Such inherent non-linearity and non-convexity of measurement functions come from the nature of power flow equations in power systems.
The second major challenge in static state estimation relates to the bad data detection algorithm. In traditional algorithms, Largest Normalized Residue Test (LNRT) has been used to identify bad data in static state estimation. Traditional bad data detection algorithm only can be applied to state estimation. Therefore, in a case of finding any bad datum, the SE algorithm have to rerun again with eliminating found bad data. Therefore, new simultaneous and robust algorithm is designed for static state estimation and bad data identification.
In the second part of the research, Second Order Cone Programming (SOCP) is used to improve solving technique for power system state estimator. However, the non-convex feasible constraints in SOCP based estimator forces the use of local solver such as IPM (interior point method) with no guarantee for quality answers. Therefore, cycle based SOCP relaxation is applied to the state estimator and a least square estimation (LSE) based method is implemented to generate positive semi-definite programming (SDP) cuts. With this approach, we are able to strengthen the state estimator (SE) with SOCP relaxation. Since SDP relaxation leads the power flow problem to the solution of higher quality, adding SDP cuts to the SOCP relaxation makes Problem’s feasible region close to the SDP feasible region while saving us from computational difficulty associated with SDP solvers. The improved solver is effective to reduce the feasible region and get rid of unwanted solutions violate cycle constraints. Different Case studies are carried out to demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the method.
After introducing the new solving technique, a novel co-optimization algorithm for simultaneous nonlinear state estimation and bad data detection is introduced in this dissertation. ${\ell}_1$-Norm optimization of the sparse residuals is used as a constraint for the state estimation problem to make the co-optimization algorithm possible. Numerical case studies demonstrate more accurate results in SOCP relaxed state estimation, successful implementation of the algorithm for the simultaneous state estimation and bad data detection, and better state estimation recovery against single and multiple Gaussian bad data compare to the traditional LNRT algorithm.
