AbstractA sequential egg-mass sample system for Douglas-fir tussock moth, Orgyia pseudotsugata McDunnough (Lepidoptera: Lymantriidae), was designed, based on visual scanning of the lower branches of Douglas-fir trees, Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco. A branch was removed from each quadrant from the upper, middle and lower crown level, and from the lowest whorl of a total of 59 non-defoliated trees in 10 areas. No consistent trend in egg-mass density per branch could be found between crown levels and no level proved superior as a representative of the tree. Therefore, the lower whorl of branches was selected for survey purposes because of sampling efficiency. Sample stop lines were determined from egg-mass density and variability data collected on 55 sites and subsequent defoliation estimates were related to these densities. The system is designed as an early detection tool to be used only in non-defoliated stands at the incipient stage of an impending outbreak.

When sequential sampling method based on MTTF is applied to weibull distribution, shape parameter is considered to be fixed. But, shape parameter in criterions or references is different from that in practice. According to sequential sampling method, with the shape parameter changing, changes of acceptance probability and rejection probability are studied. Finally, the result of simulation evaluating shows that the method of sequential sampling method is feasible and reasonable.

Abstract This article presents a novel mode-pursuing sampling method using discriminative coordinate perturbation (MPS-DCP) to further improve the convergence performance of solving high-dimensional, expensive, and black-box (HEB) problems. In MPS-DCP, a discriminative coordinate perturbation strategy is integrated into the original mode-pursuing sampling (MPS) framework for sequential sampling. During optimization, the importance of variables is defined by approximated global sensitivities, while the perturbation probabilities of variables are dynamically adjusted according to the number of optimization stalling iterations. Expensive points considering both optimality and space-filling property are selected from cheap points generated by perturbing the current best point, which balances between global exploration and local exploitation. The convergence property of MPS-DCP is theoretically analyzed. The performance of MPS-DCP is tested on several numerical benchmarks and compared with state-of-the-art metamodel-based design optimization methods for HEB problems. The results indicate that MPS-DCP generally outperforms the competitive methods regarding convergence and robustness performances. Finally, the proposed MPS-DCP is applied to a stepped cantilever beam design optimization problem and an all-electric satellite multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO) problem. The results demonstrate that MPS-DCP can find better feasible optima with the same or less computational cost than the competitive methods, which demonstrates its effectiveness and practicality in solving real-world engineering problems.
