Abstract
A method for facilitating an optimization of a control space in n dimensions is provided. The control space includes a plurality of points, and the method includes removing at least one hyperplane of the control space, and perturbing the remaining points of the control space to lessen errors relative to the control space prior to the removal of at least one hyperplane.
Claims24
A method for facilitating an optimization of a control space in n dimensions, the control space including at least one point, said method comprising:
- automatically selecting at least one candidate hyperplane for removal from the control space
- removing at least one candidate hyperplane of the control space;
- and
- perturbing any remaining points of the control space to lessen errors relative to the control space prior to said removal of at least one hyperplane.
A method for obtaining a control space containing a smaller number of hyperplanes than an original control space, subject to limits on the deviation of the optimized space from the original control space, said method comprising:
- automatically removing at least one hyperplane from the control space.
A computer configured to:
- automatically select at least one candidate hyperplane for removal from a control space
- remove at least one candidate hyperplane from the control space including a plurality of points;
- and
- perturb the remaining points of the control space to lessen errors relative to the control space prior to the removal of at least one hyperplane.
A computer readable medium embedded with a program configured to instruct a computer to:
- automatically remove at least one hyperplane from an aircraft engine control space.
A method for facilitating a removal of a hyperplane from a control space in n dimensions, the control space including at least one point, said method comprising determining a removal cost for at least one point in the control space.
