Evaluation of elicitation methods to quantify Bayes linear models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The Bayes linear methodology allows decision makers to express their subjective beliefs and adjust these beliefs as observations are made. It is similar in spirit to probabilistic Bayesian approaches, but differs as it uses expectation as its primitive ...

Applying Bayes linear methods to support reliability procurement decisions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Bayesian methods are common in reliability and risk assessment, however, such methods often demand a large amount of specification and can be computationally intensive.

Bayes linear kinematics in the analysis of failure rates and failure time distributions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Collections of related Poisson or binomial counts arise, for example, from a number of different failures in similar machines or neighbouring time periods.

Empirical Bayes methodology for estimating equipment failure rates with application to power generation plants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Many reliability databases pool event data for equipment across different plants. Pooling may occur both within and between organizations with the intention of sharing data across common items within similar operating environments to provide better ...

Sparse Bayesian learning-based mainlobe blanket jamming suppression algorithm

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, 2019
The suppression of mainlobe jamming (MLJ) is a hard task and an open problem in the electronic counter-countermeasures field. In this article, a sparse Bayesian learning (SBL)-based mainlobe blanket jamming suppression algorithm is proposed for solving ...

Conundrum of fault detection in active hybrid AC–DC distribution networks

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, 2020
Fault detection in hybrid AC–DC distribution networks is a challenging problem due to various sources of uncertainty and high degrees of complexity. A few well-known sources that instil uncertainty in the system are stochasticity of energy injected by ...

Internet of things based multi-sensor patient fall detection system

open access: yesHealthcare Technology Letters, 2019
Accidental falls of patients cannot be completely prevented. However, timely fall detection can help prevent further complications such as blood loss and unconsciousness.

Data-driven XGBoost-based filter for target tracking

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, 2019
In recent years, the data-driven approach has been introduced in the field of target tracking as a powerful tool developing the end-to-end mapping relationship between input features and outputs.

Estimation and control using sampling-based Bayesian reinforcement learning

open access: yesIET Cyber-Physical Systems, 2019
Real-world autonomous systems operate under uncertainty about both their pose and dynamics. Autonomous control systems must simultaneously perform estimation and control tasks to maintain robustness to changing dynamics or modelling errors.

Traumatic brain injury probability of survival assessment in adults using iterative random comparison classification

open access: yesHealthcare Technology Letters, 2020
Trauma brain injury (TBI) is the most common cause of death and disability in young adults. A method to determine the probability of survival (Ps) in trauma called iterative random comparison classification (IRCC) was developed and its performance was ...
