Action classifier

Pyrotechnics, the Fire Art—from the Greek, words pyr (fire) and techne (an art)—is one of three closely related technologies those of explosives, propellants, and pyrotechnics proper. These three not only have a common physicochemical root, but their functions and purposes overlap. In their typical manifestations, explosives perform at the highest speed of reaction, leaving gaseous products propellants are gas-formers and of brisk reactivity, but slower than explosives and pyrotechnic mixtures react mostly at visibly observable rates witft formation of solid residues. Numerous exceptions to these definitions may be cited, in which cases the purpose of the action classifies the item. 

Because the system is meant to be used for a variety of heat exchangers we could not use a simple (ANN) classifier, but we chose for a CBR type system. The case-base stores signal shapes with corresponding classifications or actions to be taken (e.g. signal mixing). Beftxe each inspection the case-base is filled with data from calibration pipes oc a case-base from a previous similar inspection can be used. For each new possible defect signal a search is done in the case base for the most similar case. 

If the match is good then the action defined for the case is taken and the signal is classified automatically. Cases with worse matches can still be used as classification suggestions for the operator.

Herbicides are also sometimes classified according to mode of action, selectivity, registered uses, and toxicity. The ever-increasing importance of herbicides and other pesticides and agrochemicals to a wide range of users, regulators, and researchers has led to the development of multiple and extensive computer databases. The primary database resources contain collected information relevant to herbicides, and numerous resource pubHcations are available to those needing information on the various aspects of herbicides (2). 

Constraint control strategies can be classified as steady-state or dynamic. In the steady-state approach, the process dynamics are assumed to be much faster than the frequency with which the constraint control appHcation makes its control adjustments. The variables characterizing the proximity to the constraints, called the constraint variables, are usually monitored on a more frequent basis than actual control actions are made. A steady-state constraint appHcation increases (or decreases) a manipulated variable by a fixed amount, the value of which is determined to be safe based on an analysis of the proximity to relevant constraints. Once the appHcation has taken the control action toward or away from the constraint, it waits for the effect of the control action to work through the lower control levels and the process before taking another control step. Usually these steady-state constraint controls are implemented to move away from the active constraint at a faster rate than they do toward the constraint. The main advantage of the steady-state approach is that it is predictable and relatively straightforward to implement. Its major drawback is that, because it does not account for the dynamics of the constraint and manipulated variables, a conservative estimate must be taken in how close and how quickly the operation is moved toward the active constraints. 

As only a small proportion of the material is in contact with the roUs and friction on the rollers is low, hard materials can be processed with tittle wear. The high pressure action creates a slab of ultrafine particles which usually requires a low speed impact milting system to disagglomerate. Used in closed circuit with such a disagglomerator and an air classifier, such machines can reduce the energy requirement for fine grinding many minerals. 

It should be noted that dmgs may operate by more than one mechanism, and may possess a specific mode of action against one species of plasmodium but lack efficacy against others. In addition, antimalarial dmgs may be classified according to their stmctural types. 

Although it is impossible to Hst all the practical detersive systems that might be encountered, a large proportion fall in a small number of classes. This classification disregards surfactant stmcture and type of substrate (fibrous or hard surface) and is restricted to a consideration of the soil present on the substrate, the mechanical action employed, the bath ratio, and the detergent used. Some of the more commonly encountered detersive systems are classified on this basis in Table 1. 

As the mechanical integrity of the pump system changes, the amplitude of vibration levels change. In some cases, in order to identify the source of vibration, pump speed may have to be varied, as these problems are frequency- or resonance-dependent. Pump impeller imbalance and cavitation are related to this category. Table 10-11 classifies different types of pump-related problems, their possible causes and corrective actions. 

The analysis of human actions is complicated because a human is a responsive system like a servo. Such analysis does not lend itself to simple models as do inanimate components. Classifying human actions into the success or failure states used in logic models for plant equipment dix. s not account for the wide range of possible human actions. A generally applicable model of the parameters that affect human performance is not yet available.
