Introduction to Polynomial Neural Network and it's application in Engineering Optimization




Engineering Optimization focuses on developing algorithms and techniques to find the best possible solution for complex engineering problems, such as optimizing the design of structures or processes. On the other hand, Polynomial Neural Networks explore the use of polynomial activation functions in neural networks, which can enhance their learning capabilities and improve their performance in certain tasks. Both areas contribute to advancing the capabilities of artificial intelligence and have significant applications in various industries. 

The above video walkthrough tries to demonstrate how to use the advancement of polynomial neural networks in engineering optimization.  For example, in the field of civil engineering, optimization techniques can be applied to design more efficient and cost-effective buildings or bridges. By using algorithms and mathematical models, engineers can analyze different design variables such as material selection, structural configurations, and construction methods to find the optimal solution that meets specific criteria and constraints. On the other hand, Polynomial Neural Networks have shown promise in areas such as image recognition, natural language processing, and pattern classification. By leveraging the power of polynomial activation functions, these networks can capture more complex relationships and non-linearities in the data, leading to improved accuracy and performance in these tasks. Overall, the combination of optimization techniques and Polynomial Neural Networks offers a powerful toolkit for engineers and data scientists to tackle complex problems and push the boundaries.

Five indices that you can use along with GIS to identify Drought

Drought can not be defined as Flood. No single definition is available for drought. The beginning and end of drought are difficult to identify.  Drought can be, however, identified through various indicators such as rainfall, snowpack, streamflow, and more, and these indicators can be used to monitor drought. Different scientists and researchers have developed various indices to help determine the onset, severity, and end of droughts. Drought indices are multiparameter and based on long or short duration observation of data for such parameters which help them create a comprehensible big picture. A drought index value is typically a single number that is calculated based on the data of input parameters generally rainfall, snowpack, evapotranspiration, etc., and is interpreted on a scale of abnormally wet, average, and abnormally dry.( Reference ) The video below elaborates the concept : Although drought is very difficult to determine the significance of drought in agriculture, water...

Five examples of Water Collected from Air

Video Link :  https://youtu.be/AVQJCH-6psg Water from Air is a new concept for the conservation of water by adopting a source that is uncommon and renewable. The most abundant source of freshwater is the Earth’s atmosphere. When atmospheric humidity condenses, it falls as rain. This natural process of condensation is replicated by adopting different technologies, which allows it to make water continuously, even in low humidity conditions. Here are the examples : 1) Airowater Dewpoint Smart "The Airowater Dewpoint Smart is one of the smaller units designed to ensure portability. This unit can make up to 20 litres per day in relative humidity and is also equipped to use city water as the input source to deal with a sudden increase in demand!" 2) Rainmaker "Rainmaker’s Air-to-Water units produce drinking water from the air – no other water source is required. " It uses a turbine that forces air through a heat exchanger, where the air is cooled and condensation takes pl...

How to separate baseflow from Total Storm Runoff ?

In hydrological studies, baseflow separation plays a crucial role in understanding the dynamics of water movement within a watershed. It allows researchers to identify the portion of streamflow that is sustained by groundwater discharge, which is important for assessing the availability and sustainability of water resources. Additionally, baseflow separation helps in determining the contribution of groundwater to streamflow during dry periods or droughts, providing valuable insights for water allocation and planning purposes.  Click here to access the tutorial : https://youtu.be/yvjm5YAc8H4 You may also like : HydroGeek: The newsletter for researchers of water resources https://hydrogeek.substack.com/ Baipatra VSC: Enroll for online courses for Free http://baipatra.ws Energy in Style: Participate in Online Internships for Free http://energyinstyle.website Innovate S: Online Shop for Water Researchers https://baipatra.stores.instamojo.com/ Call for Paper: International Journal of H...
