Selective Ensemble Learning Method for Belief-Rule-Base Classification System Based on PAES by Wanling Liu, Weikun Wu, Yingming Wang, Yanggeng Fu, Yanqing Lin

“…For the purpose of increasing the degree of difference in the integration of the base classifier, the training set is constructed by the repeated sampling of data. In the base classifier selection stage, the trained base classifier is binary coded, and the number of base classifiers participating in integration and generalization error of the base classifier is used as the objective function for multi-objective optimization. …”

Production Data Analysis and Practical Applications in the Sulige Tight Gas Reservoir, Ordos Basin, China by Minhua Cheng, Wen Xue, Meng Zhao, Guoting Wang, Bo Ning, Guang Ji, Lihua Cheng, Yingying Tian

“…To further improve the accuracy of historical matching of field data such as gas production and bottom-hole pressure during the production process of this type of gas reservoir, in this study, a new expression of wellbore pressure for the uniform flow of vertical fractured wells in Laplace space based on the point sink function model of vertical fractures in tight sandstone gas reservoirs is constructed. This innovation is based on a typical production data analysis plot of the Blasingame type that uses the numerical inversion decoupling mathematical equation. …”

Regional Mapping of Small‐Scale Equatorial Ionospheric Irregularities Using Swarm Echo Satellite Measurements by Ali Mohandesi, David J. Knudsen, Susan Skone, Richard B. Langley, Andrew W. Yau

“…Abstract We propose a novel approach to produce regional maps of small‐scale scintillation‐causing irregularities using a single satellite. To construct the maps, we employ several ionospheric GPS indices, including total electron content, high‐resolution ROTI, and S4, calculated from the Swarm Echo GPS Attitude, Positioning, and Profiling Experiment Occultation (GAP‐O) receiver with its antenna pointed upward. …”
