  • Solving Poisson's equation using a physics-informed natural gradient descent neural network with Dirichlet distribution

    In this paper, a physics-informed neural network containing natural gradient descent is proposed to solve the boundary value problem of the Poisson equation. Machine learning methods used in solving partial differential equations are an alternative to the finite element method. Traditional numerical methods for solving differential equations are not capable of solving arbitrary problems of mathematical physics with equivalent efficiency, unlike machine learning methods. The loss function of the neural network is responsible for the accuracy of solving initial and boundary value problems of partial differential equations. The more efficiently the loss function is minimized, the more accurate the resulting solution is. The most traditional optimization algorithm is adaptive moment estimation, which is still used in deep learning today. However, this approach does not guarantee achieving a global minimum of the loss function. We propose to use natural gradient descent with the Dirichlet distribution which increase the accuracy of solving the Poisson equation.

  • A new approach to assessing the contamination level with heavy metals in the soil-like fraction from landfills

    The paper presents a new approach to assessing the level of contamination with heavy metals of the soil-like fraction from landfills using Monte Carlo simulation using the example of landfills located within the borders of Volgograd.It was found that with a probability of 36.2%, the contamination level of a soil-like fraction from the landfill located in the Voroshilovsky district will correspond to moderately hazardous, and with a probability of 63.8%, hazardous. It is economically justified to isolate a soil-like fraction with a low level of pollution to detoxify it and further use it in the territory reclamation. For a soil-like fraction from landfill located in the Traktorozavodsky district, the pollution level was determined as extremely hazardous and hazardous with a probability of 87.1% and 3.1%, respectively. It is shown that a useful and usable part cannot be isolated from a soil-like fraction. A soil-like fraction must be neutralized and placed at waste disposal facilities.The presented approach is a useful instrument for pollution level assessment of a soil-like fraction, which can increase the accuracy of an estimate and the management effectiveness of a soil-like fraction during landfill development.

  • Building a construction schedule based on the schedule for the development of capital investments

    The relevance of the topic of the article is due to the fact that currently there is no linking of the calendar plan to the schedule for the development of capital investments. The principle of constructing a schedule for the development of capital investments is proposed, which ensures the uniformity and proportionality of the use of financial resources. Schedules for the development of capital investments are constructed, each schedule for the development of capital investments corresponds to an image describing the change in the absolute value of the profitability of the investment and construction project. The use of a mathematical apparatus describing the movement of a material point can be used in the development of investment schedules and calendar plans for construction. The construction of construction schedules in the section of the construction organization project based on investment schedules will have a significant impact on the economic efficiency of investment projects.

  • Application of the Hartmann formula for calibration of prism spectral devices in a wide range

    Prism spectral devices have a spectrum-variable dispersion and therefore a nonlinear relationship between the wavelength and the position of spectral lines on the focal surface of a spectral monochromator device, which makes it difficult to calibrate such devices in terms of wavelengths and dispersion.Most often, the well-known Hartmat formula is used for graduation. However, the accuracy of its calculation is satisfactory only in a limited spectral range, and therefore the calculation is carried out on overlapping areas no wider than 200 nm with averaging in overlapping zones. Averaging gives a calibration curve (and, accordingly, a dispersion curve) with gaps at the joints. In this paper, we consider the possibility of using a single calibration for the entire spectrum region, providing smooth, continuous calibration curves. The best result is obtained by using the Hartmann formula for the entire spectral range, after which a set of deviations of the calibration points is determined. This set is interpolated by a polynomial of an arbitrarily chosen order n using the least squares method.

  • Implementation of a competition for regression models in assessing the amount of social and pension funding

    Social and pension provision are key processes in the activities of any state, and the issues of forecasting expenses for them are among the most important in the economy. The task of evaluating the effectiveness of the pension fund has been solved by various methods, including regression analysis methods. This task is particularly difficult due to the presence of a large number of factors determining the activity of the pension fund, such as: the number of recipients of old-age pensions, the number of policyholders, self-employed policyholders, recipients of benefits, insured persons and working pensioners. As the main approach to the study, the method of implementing a model competition was applied. Those variants that violated the meaningful meaning of the variables and did not fully reflect the behavior of the modeled process were excluded from the resulting set of alternative model options. The final option was selected using the multi-criteria selection method. It is revealed that the use of relative variables is important for qualitative modeling of the studied processes. The above model shows that an increase in the ratio of the number of employers and the self-employed to the number of insured persons leads to a decrease in the cost of financing social and pension provision.The model can be effectively used for short-term forecasting of the total annual volume of financing of the pension fund department in the context of changing social and macroeconomic factors.

  • Preprocessing speech data to train a neural network

    This article analyzes data processing problems for training a neural network. The first stage of model training - feature extraction - is discussed in detail. The article discusses the method of mel-frequency cepstral coefficients. The spectrum of the voice signal was plotted. By multiplying the vectors of the signal spectrum and the window function, we found the signal energy that falls into each of the analysis windows. Next, we calculated the mel-frequency cepstral coefficients. The use of a chalk scale helps in audio analysis tasks and is used in training neural networks when working with speech. The use of mel-cepstral coefficients significantly improved the quality of recognition due to the fact that it made it possible to see the most informative coefficients. These coefficients have already been used as input to the neural network. The method with mel-frequency cepstral coefficients made it possible to reduce the input data for training, increase productivity, and improve recognition clarity.

  • Information processing using a VGA adapter for an FPGA camera

    This article describes the first stage of the research work on the development of an FPGA-based camera for vehicle identification tasks, which are widely used in automated weight and size control points. Since the FPGA is an alternative to conventional processors, which features the ability to perform multiple tasks in parallel, an FPGA-equipped camera will be able to perform the functions of detecting and identifying vehicles at the same time.Thus, the camera will not only transmit the image, but also transmit the result of processing for problem-oriented control systems, decision-making and optimization of data flow processing, after which the server will only need to confirm or deny the results of the camera, which will significantly reduce the image processing time from all automated points of weight and size control.In the course of development, a simple VGA port board, a static image program for displaying it on a monitor in 640x480 resolution, and a pixel counter program were implemented. EP4CE6E22C8 is used as FPGA, the power of which is more than enough to achieve the result.

  • A comprehensive criterion for evaluating the effectiveness of programmable logic controllers

    The choice of equipment of technological enterprises, especially when the characteristics of the equipment are close in values, remains an urgent task. In our work, to evaluate the effectiveness of programmable logic controllers (PLCs), a comprehensive criterion for evaluating efficiency is proposed, as well as a method for calculating it using numerical methods. To calculate the complex efficiency criterion, the values of the significant characteristics of the controllers selected by us are converted into points on a linear scale. To refine the calculation results, we applied one of the Newton-Cotes numerical methods, namely the trapezoid method. Next, we used the method of cubic interpolation of the obtained curves to increase the accuracy of calculations. The proposed method is simple and does not require a lot of calculations. At the same time, its application makes it possible to calculate complex PLC efficiency criteria based on characteristics relevant to a particular control process.
