Geotechnical Performance Of Highway Embankment Constructed Using Waste Foundry Sand, Patrick J. Fox, David G. Mast Jan 1998

Geotechnical Performance Of Highway Embankment Constructed Using Waste Foundry Sand, Patrick J. Fox, David G. Mast

JTRP Technical Reports

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the use of waste foundry sand (WFS) as a highway embankment material in a fullscale field demonstration project. This evaluation included geotechnical concerns, such as deformation, strength, hydraulic conductivity, and ease of construction. The report presents an introduction and previous research concerning WFS use in highway construction. A geotechnical laboratory testing program characterized the WFS used in the project, which was a waste product of Auburn Foundry, Inc., located in Auburn, Indiana. This study was also a part of the FHWA Priorities Technology Program. The project site was a 275 m section …

Faster Muse Csp Arc Consistency Algorithms, Mary P. Harper, Christopher M. White, Randall A. Helzerman, Stephen A. Hockema Dec 1997

Faster Muse Csp Arc Consistency Algorithms, Mary P. Harper, Christopher M. White, Randall A. Helzerman, Stephen A. Hockema

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

MUSE CSP (Multiply SEgmented Constraint Satisfaction Problem) [5, 61 is an extension to the constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) which is especially useful for problems that segment into riultiple instances of CSP that share variables. In Belzerman and Harper [6], the concepts of MUSE node, arc, and path consistency were defined and algorithms for MUSE arc consistency, MUSE AC-1, and MUSE path consistency were developed. MUSE AC-1 is similar to the CSP arc consistency algorithm AC-4 [ l j ] . Recently, Bessikre developed a new algorithm, AC-6 [I], which has the same worst-case running time as AC-4 and is faster …

Posteriori Probability Estimation And Pattern Classification With Hadamard Transformed Neural Networks, Peter G. Gulden, Okan Ersoy Aug 1997

Posteriori Probability Estimation And Pattern Classification With Hadamard Transformed Neural Networks, Peter G. Gulden, Okan Ersoy

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

Neural networks, trained with the backpropagation algorithm have: been applied to various classification problems. For linearly separable and nonseparahle problems, they have been shown to approximate the a posteriori probability of an input vector X belonging to a specific class C. In order to achieve high accuracy, large training data sets have to be used. For a small number of input dimensions, the accuracy of estimation was inferior to estimates using the Parzen density estimation. In this thesis, we propose two new techniques, lowering the mean square estimation error drastically and achieving better classification. In the past, t:he desired output …

On The Qualitative Behavior Of Impurity-Based Splitting Rules I: The Minima-Free Property, Craig W. Codrington, Carla E. Brodley Mar 1997

On The Qualitative Behavior Of Impurity-Based Splitting Rules I: The Minima-Free Property, Craig W. Codrington, Carla E. Brodley

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

We show that all strictly convex n impurity measures lead to splits at boundary points, and furthermore show that certain rational splitting rules, notably the information gain ratio, also have this property. A slightly weaker result is shown to hold for impurity measures that are only convex n, such as Inaccuracy.


The Applicability Of Idd Waveform Analysis To Testing Of Cmos Circuits, Hendrawan Soeleman, Dinesh Somasekhar, Kaushik Roy Mar 1997

The Applicability Of Idd Waveform Analysis To Testing Of Cmos Circuits, Hendrawan Soeleman, Dinesh Somasekhar, Kaushik Roy

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Technical Reports

This paper describes a test method which relies on the actual observation of supply current (I,,) waveforms. The method can be used to supplement the standard IDDe test method because it can 15e easily applied to dynamic logic circuits. The method allows us to detect faults which may not be detected by IDDe methods, and is sensitive enough to detect potential faults, which do not manifest themselves as functional errors. A simple built-in current sensol; which prove to be adequate in verifying the feasibility of using the ID, waveforms anczlysis to try to detect faults in CMOS circuits, is proposed …
