Stratégie de régulationUne stratégie (ou topologie) de régulation est, pour un procédé industriel, l'organisation du système de contrôle-commande en vue de maintenir une grandeur physique dans une plage de tolérance donnée. Le choix de stratégie est très important dans les industries de transformation (par exemple les industries chimiques, papetières, agroalimentaires) en raison de la variabilité d'un nombre élevé de grandeurs physiques incidentes (dites « perturbations ») qui y sont présentes.
Learning rateIn machine learning and statistics, the learning rate is a tuning parameter in an optimization algorithm that determines the step size at each iteration while moving toward a minimum of a loss function. Since it influences to what extent newly acquired information overrides old information, it metaphorically represents the speed at which a machine learning model "learns". In the adaptive control literature, the learning rate is commonly referred to as gain. In setting a learning rate, there is a trade-off between the rate of convergence and overshooting.
Effects of the car on societiesSince the start of the twentieth century, the role of cars has become highly important, though controversial. They are used throughout the world and have become the most popular mode of transport in many of the more developed countries. In developing countries, the effects of the car on society are not as visible, however they are nonetheless significant. The development of the car built upon the transport sector first started by railways. This has introduced sweeping changes in employment patterns, social interactions, infrastructure and the distribution of goods.
Fitness approximationFitness approximation aims to approximate the objective or fitness functions in evolutionary optimization by building up machine learning models based on data collected from numerical simulations or physical experiments. The machine learning models for fitness approximation are also known as meta-models or surrogates, and evolutionary optimization based on approximated fitness evaluations are also known as surrogate-assisted evolutionary approximation.
