Academic Editor: Jinliang Yuan Received: 24 November 2014 / Accepted: 22 April 2015 / Published: 29 April 2015 Abstract: In this study, the influence of various factors on nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions of a low NOx burner is investigated using a central composite design (CCD) approach to an experimental matrix in order to show the applicability of design of experiments methodology to the combustion field. Four factors have been analyzed in terms of their impact on NOx formation: hydrogen fraction in the fuel (0%–15% mass fraction in hydrogen-enriched methane), amount of excess air (5%–30%), burner head position (20–25 mm from the burner throat) and secondary fuel fraction provided to the burner (0%–6%). The measurements were performed at a constant thermal load equal to 25 kW (calculated based on lower heating value). Response surface methodology and CCD were used to develop a second-degree polynomial regression model of the burner NOx emissions. -
Recommendations for Design Parameters for Central Composite Designs with Restricted Randomization
Recommendations for Design Parameters for Central Composite Designs with Restricted Randomization Li Wang Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Statistics Geoff Vining, Chair Scott Kowalski, Co-Chair John P. Morgan Dan Spitzner Keying Ye August 15, 2006 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: Response Surface Designs, Central Composite Design, Split-plot Designs, Rotatability, Orthogonal Blocking. Copyright 2006, Li Wang Recommendations for Design Parameters for Central Composite Designs with Restricted Randomization Li Wang ABSTRACT In response surface methodology, the central composite design is the most popular choice for fitting a second order model. The choice of the distance for the axial runs, α, in a central composite design is very crucial to the performance of the design. In the literature, there are plenty of discussions and recommendations for the choice of α, among which a rotatable α and an orthogonal blocking α receive the greatest attention. Box and Hunter (1957) discuss and calculate the values for α that achieve rotatability, which is a way to stabilize prediction variance of the design. They also give the values for α that make the design orthogonally blocked, where the estimates of the model coefficients remain the same even when the block effects are added to the model. In the last ten years, people have begun to realize the importance of a split-plot structure in industrial experiments. Constructing response surface designs with a split-plot structure is a hot research area now. In this dissertation, Box and Hunters’ choice of α for rotatablity and orthogonal blocking is extended to central composite designs with a split-plot structure. -

Optimization and Gradient Descent INFO-4604, Applied Machine Learning University of Colorado Boulder September 11, 2018 Prof. Michael Paul Prediction Functions Remember: a prediction function is the function that predicts what the output should be, given the input. Prediction Functions Linear regression: f(x) = wTx + b Linear classification (perceptron): f(x) = 1, wTx + b ≥ 0 -1, wTx + b < 0 Need to learn what w should be! Learning Parameters Goal is to learn to minimize error • Ideally: true error • Instead: training error The loss function gives the training error when using parameters w, denoted L(w). • Also called cost function • More general: objective function (in general objective could be to minimize or maximize; with loss/cost functions, we want to minimize) Learning Parameters Goal is to minimize loss function. How do we minimize a function? Let’s review some math. Rate of Change The slope of a line is also called the rate of change of the line. y = ½x + 1 “rise” “run” Rate of Change For nonlinear functions, the “rise over run” formula gives you the average rate of change between two points Average slope from x=-1 to x=0 is: 2 f(x) = x -1 Rate of Change There is also a concept of rate of change at individual points (rather than two points) Slope at x=-1 is: f(x) = x2 -2 Rate of Change The slope at a point is called the derivative at that point Intuition: f(x) = x2 Measure the slope between two points that are really close together Rate of Change The slope at a point is called the derivative at that point Intuition: Measure the -

Example 1 Find the stationary points of the functions (a) f(x) = 3x2 + 2x − 9 , (b) f(x) = x3 − 6x2 + 9x − 2 . Solution dy (a) If y = 3x2 + 2x − 9 then = 3 × 2x2−1 + 2 = 6x + 2. dx The stationary points are found by solving the equation dy = 6x + 2 = 0 . dx In this case there is only one solution, x = −1/3. -

La Brea and Beyond: the Paleontology of Asphalt-Preserved Biotas
La Brea and Beyond: The Paleontology of Asphalt-Preserved Biotas Edited by John M. Harris Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County Science Series 42 September 15, 2015 Cover Illustration: Pit 91 in 1915 An asphaltic bone mass in Pit 91 was discovered and exposed by the Los Angeles County Museum of History, Science and Art in the summer of 1915. The Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History resumed excavation at this site in 1969. Retrieval of the “microfossils” from the asphaltic matrix has yielded a wealth of insect, mollusk, and plant remains, more than doubling the number of species recovered by earlier excavations. Today, the current excavation site is 900 square feet in extent, yielding fossils that range in age from about 15,000 to about 42,000 radiocarbon years.

Calculus 120, Section 7.3 Maxima & Minima of Multivariable Functions
Calculus 120, section 7.3 Maxima & Minima of Multivariable Functions notes by Tim Pilachowski A quick note to start: If you’re at all unsure about the material from 7.1 and 7.2, now is the time to go back to review it, and get some help if necessary. You’ll need all of it for the next three sections. Just like we had a first-derivative test and a second-derivative test to maxima and minima of functions of one variable, we’ll use versions of first partial and second partial derivatives to determine maxima and minima of functions of more than one variable. The first derivative test for functions of more than one variable looks very much like the first derivative test we have already used: If f(x, y, z) has a relative maximum or minimum at a point ( a, b, c) then all partial derivatives will equal 0 at that point. That is ∂f ∂f ∂f ()a b,, c = 0 ()a b,, c = 0 ()a b,, c = 0 ∂x ∂y ∂z Example A: Find the possible values of x, y, and z at which (xf y,, z) = x2 + 2y3 + 3z 2 + 4x − 6y + 9 has a relative maximum or minimum. Answers : (–2, –1, 0); (–2, 1, 0) Example B: Find the possible values of x and y at which fxy(),= x2 + 4 xyy + 2 − 12 y has a relative maximum or minimum. Answer : (4, –2); z = 12 Notice that the example above asked for possible values. The first derivative test by itself is inconclusive. The second derivative test for functions of more than one variable is a good bit more complicated than the one used for functions of one variable. -
Mean Value, Taylor, and All That
Mean Value, Taylor, and all that Ambar N. Sengupta Louisiana State University November 2009 Careful: Not proofread! Derivative Recall the definition of the derivative of a function f at a point p: f (w) − f (p) f 0(p) = lim (1) w!p w − p Derivative Thus, to say that f 0(p) = 3 means that if we take any neighborhood U of 3, say the interval (1; 5), then the ratio f (w) − f (p) w − p falls inside U when w is close enough to p, i.e. in some neighborhood of p. (Of course, we can’t let w be equal to p, because of the w − p in the denominator.) In particular, f (w) − f (p) > 0 if w is close enough to p, but 6= p. w − p Derivative So if f 0(p) = 3 then the ratio f (w) − f (p) w − p lies in (1; 5) when w is close enough to p, i.e. in some neighborhood of p, but not equal to p. Derivative So if f 0(p) = 3 then the ratio f (w) − f (p) w − p lies in (1; 5) when w is close enough to p, i.e. in some neighborhood of p, but not equal to p. In particular, f (w) − f (p) > 0 if w is close enough to p, but 6= p. w − p • when w > p, but near p, the value f (w) is > f (p). • when w < p, but near p, the value f (w) is < f (p). Derivative From f 0(p) = 3 we found that f (w) − f (p) > 0 if w is close enough to p, but 6= p. -

Lecture 13: Extrema
Math S21a: Multivariable calculus Oliver Knill, Summer 2013 Lecture 13: Extrema An important problem in multi-variable calculus is to extremize a function f(x, y) of two vari- ables. As in one dimensions, in order to look for maxima or minima, we consider points, where the ”derivative” is zero. A point (a, b) in the plane is called a critical point of a function f(x, y) if ∇f(a, b) = h0, 0i. Critical points are candidates for extrema because at critical points, all directional derivatives D~vf = ∇f · ~v are zero. We can not increase the value of f by moving into any direction. This definition does not include points, where f or its derivative is not defined. We usually assume that a function is arbitrarily often differentiable. Points where the function has no derivatives are not considered part of the domain and need to be studied separately. For the function f(x, y) = |xy| for example, we would have to look at the points on the coordinate axes separately. 1 Find the critical points of f(x, y) = x4 + y4 − 4xy + 2. The gradient is ∇f(x, y) = h4(x3 − y), 4(y3 − x)i with critical points (0, 0), (1, 1), (−1, −1). 2 f(x, y) = sin(x2 + y) + y. The gradient is ∇f(x, y) = h2x cos(x2 + y), cos(x2 + y) + 1i. For a critical points, we must have x = 0 and cos(y) + 1 = 0 which means π + k2π. The critical points are at ... (0, −π), (0, π), (0, 3π),.... 2 2 3 The graph of f(x, y) = (x2 + y2)e−x −y looks like a volcano.
