Optimality of the sequential probability ratio test fornonstationary observations

Bayesian analysis is used to show that Wald's sequential probability ratio test with varying thresholds is optimal for the nonstationary situation, where the observed samples are independent but not identically distributed. Some important properties useful for the design of the test thresholds are discussed. Wald's lower bound, generalized to the nonstationary situation, is also presented. The results have important applications in situations where the observed signal is time-varying. such as in radar signal processing, image processing, and spread spectrum communications     

AN improved method of optimization for electrical machines

Methods of optimizing the design of electrical machines are discussed. The augmented Lagrangian multiplier method is described, and an algorithm for this method is introduced. The method is compared with the more familiar exterior penalty function method using, as an example, the cost optimization of permanent magnetic variable-speed drive motors. The improved method is shown to be superior, both in its ability to reach an optimum consistently and in the number of required iterations     

Nash equilibrium bidding strategies in a bilateral electricitymarket

This paper examines bidding strategies in a bilateral market in which generating companies submit bids to loads. A load accepts electricity delivery from the generator with the lowest bid at its bid price as long as this price is not higher than the load's willingness to pay. Necessary and sufficient conditions of Nash equilibrium (NE) bidding strategy are derived based on a generic generating cost matrix and the loads' willingness to pay vector. The study shows that in any NE, efficient allocation is achieved. Furthermore, all Nash equilibria are revenue equivalent for the generators. Based on the necessary and sufficient conditions, this problem is formulated as an optimal assignment problem. Network optimization techniques are applied to calculate NE bid prices for the generators
