Some notes on an extended query language for FSM

FSM is a database model that has been recently proposed by the authors. FSM uses basic concepts of classification, generalization, aggregation and association that are commonly used in semantic modelling and supports the fuzziness of real-world at attribute, entity, class and relations intra and inter-classes levels. Hence, it provides tools to formalize and conceptualize real-world within a manner adapted to human perception of and reasoning about this real-word. In this paper we briefly review basic concepts of FSM and provide some notes on an extended query language adapted to it.ou

Conceptual design and implementation of the fuzzy semantic model

FSM is one of few database models that support fuzziness, uncertainty and impreciseness of real-world at the class definition level. FSM authorizes an entity to be partially member of its class according to a given degree of membership that reflects the level to which the entity verifies the extent properties of this class. This paper deals with the conceptual design of FSM and adresses some implementation issues.ou

Extending database capabilities: Fuzzy semantic model

R sum This paper presents a new database model, namely Fuzzy Semantic Model (or FSM). FSM enables us to capture effectively the fuzziness and semantics of real-world and provides tools for its formalization and conceptualization within a manner adapted to human perception and reasoning. One of the novelties of FSM is that it authorizes an entity to be a member of several classes at the same time and according to different degrees of memberships that reflect the extent to which the entity verifies the attribute-based and/or semantic proprieties of these classes. The idea is to associate to each class a set of semantic and attribute-based proprieties; each one has its own membership function. These functions are then weighted in order to construct global membership functions that will be used as meant for assigning entities to classes

Battery Lifetime Prediction via Neural Networks with Discharge Capacity and State of Health

The market share of electric vehicles (EVs) has grown exponentially in recent years to reduce air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. The principal part of an EV is the energy storage system, which is usually the batteries. Thus, the accurate estimation of the remaining useful life (RUL) of the batteries, for an optimal health management and a decision-making policy, still remains a challenge for automakers. In this paper, the problem of battery RUL prediction is studied from a new perspective. Unlike other estimation strategies existing in the literature, the proposed technique uses an intelligent prediction of the lifespan of lithium–iron–phosphate (LFP) batteries via a modified version of neural networks. It uses a data-driven life estimation approach and optimization method and does not require any prior comprehension and initialization of any parameters of the battery model. To validate and verify the proposed technique, we use LFP battery data sets, and the experimental results showed that the proposed methodology can well learn the characteristic relationship of battery discharge capacities as well as its state of health (SOH), where the battery life cycle changes as the battery ages with time and cycles
