This paper is to evaluate the applicability of neural networks to the estimation of evapotranspiration. Two neural networks were developed to forecast daily evapotranspiration of the rice crop with back-propagation and counter-propagation algorithm. The neural network trained by back-propagation algorithm with delta learning rule is a three-layer network with input, hidden, and output layers. The other network with counter-propagation algorithm is a four-layer network with input, normalizing, competitive, and output layers. Training neural networks was conducted using daily actual evapotranspiration of rice crop and daily climatic data such as mean temperature, sunshine hours, solar radiation, relative humidity, and pan evaporation. During the training, neural network parameters were calibrated. The trained networks were applied to a set of field data not used in the training. The created response of the back-propagation network was in good agreement with desired values and showed better performances than the counter-propagation network did. Evaluating the neural network performance indicates that the back-propagation neural network may be applied to the estimation of evapotranspiration of the rice crop. This study does not provide with a conclusive statement as to the ability of a neural network to evapotranspiration estimating. More detailed study is required for better understanding and evaluating the behavior of neural networks.

Recentlly neural network approach for solving a singular perturbed integro-differential boundary value problem have been researched. Especially the model of the feed-forward neural network to be trained by the back propagation algorithm with various learning algorithms were theoretically substantiated, and neural network models such as deep learning, transfer learning, federated learning are very rapidly evolving. The purpose of this paper is to study the approaching method for developing a neural network model with high accuracy and speed for solving singular perturbed problem along with asymptotic methods. In this paper, we propose a method that the simulation for the difference between result value of singular perturbed problem and unperturbed problem by using neural network approach equation. Also, we showed the efficiency of the neural network approach. As a result, the contribution of this paper is to show the possibility of simple neural network approach for singular perturbed problem solution efficiently.

폴리우레탄 코팅포의 촉감을 예측하기 위하여 신경망 이론이 사용되었다. 본 연구에서는 Neural Connection의 MLP(Multi Layer Perceptron)를 신경망 분석에 사용하였으며, 학습 알고리즘은 백프로파게인션(Backpropagation)을 이용하였다. 사용된 변수는 KES-FB시스템에서 측정된 17가지 역학적 특성치를 설명변수, 촉감치를 목표변수로 하였다. 폴리우레탄 코팅포의 촉감을 정확하게 예측할 수 있는 신경망 모델을 찾기 위해, 은닉층의 노드수를 8에서 34로 변화시켜 보았다. 또한 MLP적용함수로 선형함수, 비선형 시그모이드함수, 탄젠트 함수를 사용하여 목표변수를 예측하여 모형의 정확도를 살펴보았다. 구축된 신경망모델은 17가지 역학적특성치 자료를 이용하여 학습되었으며 학습 완료 후 학습에 사용되지 않은 시료를 시스템에 적용하여 학습된 신경망 시스템이 촉감을 평가하게 한 후 주관적으로 평가된 촉감치와 비교하여 본 시스템의 판단의 정확성을 평가하도록 하였다. 은닉층의 노드수와 MLP적용함수는 촉감예측에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났는데, 촉감 예측에 가장 적절한 모형은 MLP 적용함수가 탄젠트 함수이고 노드수가 22인 것으로 나타났다. 신경망을 통한 폴리우레탄 코팅포의 촉감 예측력은 선행연구에서 이용된 통계적 방법보다 높게 나타나 폴리우레탄 코팅포의 촉감예측에 신경망의 이용은 효과적인 것으로 밝혀졌다.

In this work, two approaches were proposed for the recognition of partial discharge patterns. The first approach was neural network with backpropagation algorithm, and the second approach was angle calculation between t재 operator vectors. PD signals were detected using three electrode systems; IEC(b), needle-plane and CIGRE method II electrode system. Both of neural network and angle comparison method showed good recognition performance for the patterns similar to the trained patterns. And the number of operators to be used had a great influence on the recognition performance to the untrained patterns.

This paper presents the application of a neural network for prediction of the unconfined compressive strength from physical properties and schmidt hardness number on rock samples. To investigate the suitability of this approach, the results of analysis using a neural network are compared to predictions obtained by statistical relations. The data sets containing 55 rock sample records which are composed of sandstone and shale were assembled in Daegu area. They were used to learn the neural network model with the back-propagation teaming algorithm. The rock characteristics as the teaming input of the neural network are: schmidt hardness number, specific gravity, absorption, porosity, p-wave velocity and S-wave velocity, while the corresponding unconfined compressive strength value functions as the teaming output of the neural network. A data set containing 45 test results was used to train the networks with the back-propagation teaming algorithm. Another data set of 10 test results was used to validate the generalization and prediction capabilities of the neural network.

The hidden node plays a role of the functional units that classifies the features of input pattern in the given question. Therefore, a neural network that consists of the number of a suitable optimum hidden node has be on the rise as a factor that has an important effect upon a result. However there is a problem that decides the number of hidden nodes based on back-propagation learning algorithm. If the number of hidden nodes is designated very small perfect learning is not done because the input pattern given cannot be classified enough. On the other hand, if designated a lot, overfitting occurs due to the unnecessary execution of operation and extravagance of memory point. So, the recognition rate is been law and the generality is fallen. Therefore, this paper suggests a method that decides the number of neural network node with feature information consisted of the parameter of learning algorithm. It excludes a node in the Pruning target, that has a maximum value among the feature value obtained and compares the average of the rest of hidden node feature value with the feature value of each hidden node, and then would like to improve the learning speed of neural network deciding the optimum structure of the multi-layer neural network as pruning the hidden node that has the feature value smaller than the average.
