Julong Deng
Deng Julong (; January 1933 – June 22, 2013) was a professor of Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, China. He is acknowledged as the founder of grey system theory, first proposed in 1982 with the publication of his paper “Control problems of grey systems,” in the international journal ''Systems and Control Letter'', edited at the time by Roger W. Brockett, a professor at Harvard University. This theory underlies the theory of grey relational analysis. His theory inspired many noted scholars like Jeffrey Yi-Lin Forrest, Liu Sifeng, and Keith W. Hipel, recipient of Izaak Walton Killam Memorial Prize.Liu, SF., Yang, Y., and Forrest, J. (2017). ''Grey Data Analysis''. Springer. Academic career The works of Professor Lotfi A. Zadeh significantly inspired Deng, and the uncertainty of the Deng Xiaoping era inspired him to work on uncertain systems. In 1965, he proposed the theory of multivariate system control. His academic paper, "an integrated approach to the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Grey System Theory
Grey relational analysis (GRA) was developed by Deng Julong of Huazhong University of Science and Technology. It is one of the most widely used models of grey system theory. GRA uses a specific concept of information. It defines situations with no information as black, and those with perfect information as white. However, neither of these idealized situations ever occurs in real world problems. In fact, situations between these extremes, which contain partial information, are described as being grey, hazy or fuzzy. A variant of GRA model, Taguchi-based GRA model, is a popular optimization method in manufacturing engineering. Definition Let X_0=\left(x_0\left(1\right),x_0\left(2\right),\dots ,x_0\left(n\right)\right) is an ideal data set andX_k=\left(x_k\left(1\right),x_k\left(2\right),\dots ,x_k\left(n\right)\right),k\mathrmm are the alternative data sets of the same length. The Grey Relational Grade (GRG) between the two data sets is given by _=\int^n_ where the Grey Relation ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Bachelor Of Engineering
A Bachelor of Engineering (BEng) or a Bachelor of Science in Engineering (BSE) is an academic undergraduate degree awarded to a student after three to five years of studying engineering at an accredited college or university. In the UK, a Bachelor of Engineering degree will be accredited by one of the Engineering Council's professional engineering institutions as suitable for registration as an incorporated engineer or chartered engineer with further study to masters level. In Canada, a degree from a Canadian university can be accredited by the Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board (CEAB). Alternatively, it might be accredited directly by another professional engineering institution, such as the US-based Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). The Bachelor of Engineering contributes to the route to chartered engineer (UK), registered engineer or licensed professional engineer and has been approved by representatives of the profession.
