Life tests for highly reliable products often take a long time even using accelerated life testing with censoring. When the production process is monitored by control charts with the product lifeti…
A novel π-phase-shifted (PS) long-period fiber-grating (LPFG) sensor operating near the phase-matching turning point (PMTP) was proposed. The PS-LPFG sensor can simultaneously detect temperature, …
In many moderate dimensional applications we have multiple response variables that are associated with a common set of predictors. When the main objective is prediction of the response variables, a…
High-spatial-resolution distributed sensing at high temperature is crucial in many industrial areas, such as aero-engines, nuclear power, furnaces, and fuel cells. Here, we propose and demonstrate …
This paper attacks the challenging problem of video retrieval by text. In such a retrieval paradigm, an end user searches for unlabeled videos by ad-hoc queries described exclusively in the form of…
Surrogate-assisted evolutionary algorithms (SAEAs) have become very popular for tackling computationally expensive multiobjective optimization problems (EMOPs), as the surrogate models in SAEAs can…
With an increased demand for high speed and high sensitivity in optical communication system applications, semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA)-PIN photodetectors and AlInAsSb, InGaAs/InAlAs, or G…
In this study, a nano-displacement measurement system is proposed and demonstrated both theoretically and experimentally, which was based on a modified Mach-Zehnder (M-Z) interferometer using two c…
Traditional single-mode As-S fiber is limited in the transmission of high power mid-infrared laser by its low threshold of laser-induced damage. A single-mode chalcogenide (ChG) fiber based on Ge-A…
In this paper, a novel design of a 1×N multimode-interference power splitter is proposed and investigated. By using the finite difference time domain method and particle swarm optimization algorit…
