  • Patent number: 11960253
    Abstract: A system and a method for parameter optimization with adaptive search space and a user interface using the same are provided. The system includes a data acquisition unit, an adaptive adjustment unit and an optimization search unit. The data acquisition unit obtains a set of executed values of several operating parameters and a target parameter. The adaptive adjustment unit includes a parameter space transformer and a search range definer. The parameter space transformer performs a space transformation on a parameter space of the operating parameters according to the executed values. The search range definer defines a parameter search range in a transformed parameter space based on the sets of the executed values. The optimization search unit takes the parameter search range as a limiting condition and takes optimizing the target parameter as a target to search for a set of recommended values of the operating parameters.

  • Patent number: 11810002
    Abstract: A dynamic prediction model establishment method, an electric device and a user interface are provided. The dynamic prediction model establishment method includes the following steps. An integration model is established by a processing device according to at least one auxiliary data set. The integration model is modified as a dynamic prediction model by the processing device according to a target data set. A sampling point recommendation information is provided by the processing device according to an error degree or an uncertainty degree between the at least one auxiliary data set and the target data set.

  • Patent number: 11769081
    Abstract: An optimum sampling search system and method with risk assessment, and a graphical user interface are provided. The optimum sampling search system includes a data acquisition unit, an objective satisfaction score calculation unit, a constraint satisfaction probability calculation unit, a sampling risk evaluation unit, and an adjusting unit. If the constraint satisfaction probability of a recommended sampling parameter is between a first predetermined value and a second predetermined value, the recommended sampling parameter is adjusted, by the adjusting unit, to optimize a constraint satisfaction probability model.

  • Patent number: 10929472
    Abstract: A parameter optimization method includes: a parameter search is performed on an input parameter, an output response value and a target value through a plurality of optimization schemes to search for a plurality of candidate recommended parameters. Each optimization scheme is assigned to a weight value according to user historical decision information. At least one recommended parameter is selected from the candidate recommended parameters according to the weight values. An user interface is provided for a user to input a decision instruction. A new input parameter is selected from the at least one recommended parameter according to the decision instruction; the new input parameter is inputted into the target system; and a new output response value is evaluated whether meets a specification condition. The user historical decision information is updated based on the decision instruction to adjust the weight values.

  • Patent number: 10698397
    Abstract: A heater condition monitoring and accessing method includes steps as follows: A plurality of history operating data of a heater under test are acquired, wherein each of the history operating data has a temperature, an operating sequence, and a resistance. A plurality subsets of the history operating data corresponding to a predetermined temperature range are picked up from the history operating data to form a resistance-operating sequence characteristic curve. At least one test is performed according to the resistance-operating sequence characteristic curve to determine whether a fault of the heater under test occurs at the current operating run or at the subsequent operating run and to evaluate the remaining useful life of the heater under test.
