The purpose of this study is to develop an analytical assessment approach to identify the main factors that affect graduate students' happiness level. The two methods, multiple linear regression (MLR) and artificial neural networks (ANN), were employed for analytical modelling. A sample of 118 students at a small non-profit private university constituted the survey pool. Various factors including education, school facilities, health, social activities, and family were taken into consideration as a result of literature review in happiness assessment. A total of 32 inputs and one output variables were identified during survey design phase. The following survey conduction, data collection, …

Abstract: For UCAV having the capability to deal with autonomous air combat, the flight dynamics model with the overload input and the 3-dimensional proportional navigation guidance model were established. Based on artificial neural network, an evasive maneuver decision was presented for avoiding incoming missiles. The degrees of freedom for UCAV-missile system were reduced by coordinate transformation, which simplified the complicated model as a non-linear model with relatively small amount of input and a single output. After the neural network samples were generated and trained, evasive results could be directly predicted from the relationship of positions between UCAV and missile …
