A Comprehensive Study of MATLAB Optimization Toolbox Solvers for Nonlinear Constraints and Objective Functions

Anup Kumar Thander, Dwaipayan Bhowmik — Wed, 12 Feb 2025 00:00:00 +0000

In this paper, four different solvers available in the optimization toolbox of MATLAB for nonlinear constraints and objective functions have been discussed. Among these solvers, numerical comparisons have been made using CPUTIME as the parameter. The MATLAB solvers described in this study have been applied to obtain the global optimum values of Rosenbrock’s banana functions in multi-dimensions. Additionally, graphical analysis is provided for a visual illustration of the convergence of the optimal solution of Rosenbrock’s function.

Road condition assessment: A framework for automatic detection of surface flaws

P. V. Siva Kumar — Sat, 25 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000

Road abnormalities such as cracks, unevenness, potholes, and manholes are increasing the number of road disasters in today’s world, particularly in nations like India. Accidents and irreplaceable loss result from uneven and damaged roadways, as well as unneeded openings. The introduction of more Big Data sources through citizen recording devices has created a new foundation for public infrastructure management and control, as well as policy design. Roads that are maintained on a regular basis are less likely to be involved in accidents. However, manually inspecting road damage is costly, time-intensive, and requires a large amount of manpower. Automatically detecting and reporting the presence of potholes, manholes, and other anomalies such as cracks to the appropriate departments can aid in the recovery of road conditions. Detailed real-time performance object detection frameworks (YOLOv5 and RCNN) for detections of potholes are presented. The main objective of this manuscript is to propose a framework that utilizes machine learning and deep learning models for detecting surface flaws.

SAP S/4HANA Cloud: the intelligent core of next-generation ERP

SAP S/4HANA Cloud means a full Enterprise Resource Planning suite that is fundamentally made for the cloud, is built around a microservices-based architecture in containers, and keeps the same codebase that can be run on any compatible infrastructure without the need for intervention and can be scaled up or down as required. With its in-memory engine, it allows the fastest reading and writing of data, so if user data is being processed, then analytics and automation that are embedded can also be executed in real time. The single database with a unified database schema brings together finance, logistics, and asset management into one database, thus ensuring that the same data is used and that there is more efficiency in the operations. To ensure both security and compliance, the same basic infrastructure is used for encryption and role-based access control, with the operations being at different layers that not only protect the data but also support the fulfillment of regulations. As a result, companies are upgrading their old systems with SAP S/4HANA Cloud in order to save time in their operations and be able to comply with data protection requirements that are specific to the region and the industry.

Visualization of information technologies in the teaching of mathematics

The main purpose of educational tools in mathematics is to check the results with quality. There are many different tools that help students develop logical thinking through interactive activities. Mathematics education tools are created for innovative, interactive, and dynamic learning in various mathematical disciplines. The goal is to show the importance of applying information technologies (ITs) with the intention of realizing the principle of visualization. Data visualization is a key tool in online learning that helps students better understand complex ideas while providing teachers and administrators with insight into the educational process. It also makes it easier for teachers to monitor student progress and identify where additional information or support is needed. The use of visual elements in teaching can increase students’ interest and help them get involved in the learning process, which is the primary goal of teaching—to put the student in the center of the educational process. According to the theoretical and practical knowledge collected so far, it has been confirmed that the use of ITs in mathematics classes leads to the achievement of useful knowledge among students. Also, using visualization, it is possible to improve students’ arithmetic, algebraic, and geometric intuitions.
