Kalman Filtering and its Application to On-Line State Estimation of a Once-Through Boiler by Patel, Zubeida

“…The second part of this thesis uses these algorithms to demonstrate the feasibility of on-line state estimation on the main components of a once-through utility power boiler that require in excess of a hundred state variables to capture its behaviour with adequate fidelity. …”

Ancestry-independent osteometric sex estimation from selected postcranial skeletal elements of South Africans: a machine learning approach by Scott, Michelle

“…Estimation techniques using postcranial elements in SA almost exclusively utilise discriminant analysis to evaluate sex, but international publications have shown success using alternative machine learning (ML) algorithms. …”

Efficient radio resource management for the fifth generation slice networks by Oladejo, Sunday Oladayo

“…It is observed that GI-LARE scheme outperforms the static slicing (SS) and an optimal resource allocation (ORA) schemes. Moreover, the GI-LARE appears to be near optimal when compared with an exact solution based on spatial branch and bound. …”

The development of satellite derived nitrate and stratification indices for the southern Benguela ecosystem by Khumalo, Madoda Brian

“…There were however two concerns that needed further consideration in the approach: 1).The large warm bias discovered between the in situ and remotely sensed temperatures which had a direct influence on the validity of the algorithms in the ecosystem and 2.) The temporal and spatial disconnects between the physical forcing and biological response of the ecosystem and subsequent impact upon the utility of the remotely sensed proxies.…”

Wind plant annual energy production maximisation and efficiency improvement with considerations for thrust and turbulence intensity by Charles, Mfon Okokon

“…To exploit this feature, this study proposes and implements an axial induction-based cooperative power maximisation for annual energy production (AEP) maximisation in a hexagonally deployed multi-directional wind site with space restrictions, using particle swarm optimization (PSO) and genetic algorithm (GA). Initial results confirm a significant increase in wind plant power and AEP, accompanied by increase in turbine-level turbulence intensity, thrust coefficient, and thrust as consequences imposed by the unconstrained optimisation-enhanced power increments. …”
