In this paper, instead of the conventional PD controller for balancing control of two wheeled inverted pendulum robots, an improved PD controller using the neural network is proposed and implemented for performance verification. First, a two wheeled inverted pendulum robot system is constructed for experiment. Next proper gains of the conventional PD controller according to users' weights are obtained for balancing the robot by use of the trial and error method. The PD gains based on the trial and error method are generalized through the neural network. Experiment results show that the PD controller based on the neural network has better performance than the conventional PD controller.

The compressive strength of concrete is commonly used criterion in producing concrete. However, the tests on the compressive strength are complicated and time-consuming. More importantly, it is too late to make improvement even if the test result does not satisfy the required strength, since the test is usually performed at the 28th day after the placement of concrete at the construction site. Therefore, accurate and realistic strength estimation before the placement of concrete is being highly required. In this study, the estimation of the compressive strength of concrete was performed by probabilistic neural network(PNN) on the basis of concrete mix proportions. The estimation performance of PNN was improved by considering the correlation between input data and targeted output value. Improved probabilistic neural network was proposed to automatically calculate the smoothing parameter in the conventional PNN by using the scheme of dynamic decay adjustment (DDA) algorithm. The conventional PNN and the PNN with DDA algorithm(IPNN) were applied to predict the compressive strength of concrete using actual test data of two concrete companies. IPNN showed better results than the conventional PNN in predicting the compressive strength of concrete.

A controller of wheeled mobile robot(WMR) based on Lyapunov theory is designed and a Fuzzy-Neural Network algorithm is applied to this system to adjust controller gain. In conventional controller of WMR that adopts fixed controller gain, controller can not pursuit trajectory perfectly when initial condition of system is changed. Moreover, acquisition of optimal value of controller gain due to variation of initial condition is not easy because it can be get through lots of try and error process. To solve such problem, a Fuzzy-Neural Network algorithm is proposed. The Fuzzy logic adjusts gains to act up to position error and position error rate. And, the Neural Network algorithm optimizes gains according to initial position and initial direction. Computer simulation shows that the proposed Fuzzy-Neural Network controller is effective.

In this paper, neural network force tracking control is proposed. The conventional impedance function is reformulated to have direct farce tracking capability. Neural network is used to compensate for all the uncertainties such as unknown robot dynamics, unknown environment stiffness, and unknown environment position. On line training signal of farce error for neural network is formulated. A large x-y table is built as a test-bed and neural network loaming algorithm is implemented on a DSP board mounted in a PC. Experimental studies of farce tracking on unknown environment for x-y table robot are presented to confirm the performance of the proposed technique.

Through fuzzy logic controller is very useful to many areas, it is difficult to build up the rule-base by experience and trial-error. So, effective self-tuning fuzzy controller for the position control of ball and beam is designed. In this paper, we developed the neural network control system with fuzzy-neuron which conducts the adjustment process for the parameters to satisfy have nonlinear property of the ball and beam system. The proposed algorithm is based on a fuzzy logic control system using a neural network learinign algorithm which is a back-propagation algorithm. This system learn membership functions with input variables. The purpose of the design is to control the position of the ball along the track by manipulating the angualr position of the serve. As a result, it is concluded that the neural network control system with fuzzy-neuron is more effective than the conventional fuzzy system.

In this paper an artificial neural network model is developed to estimate the unconfined compression strength of Deep Cement Mixing(DCM) treated soil. A database which consists of a number of unconfined compression test result compiled from 9 clay sites is used to train and test of the artificial neural network model. Developed neural network model requires water content of soil, unit weight of soil, passing percent of #200 sieve, weight of cement, w-c ratio as input variables. It is found that the developed artificial neural network model can predict more precise and reliable unconfined compression strength than the conventional empirical models.

In this paper, we propose a new architecture of Genetic Algorithms(GAs)-based Backpropagation(BP). The conventional BP does not guarantee that the BP generated through learning has the optimal network architecture. But the proposed GA-based BP enable the architecture to be a structurally more optimized network, and to be much more flexible and preferable neural network than the conventional BP. The experimental results in BP neural network optimization show that this algorithm can effectively avoid BP network converging to local optimum. It is found by comparison that the improved genetic algorithm can almost avoid the trap of local optimum and effectively improve the convergent speed.

Many researches on the application of neural networks for making financial index prediction have proven their advantages over statistical and other methods. In this paper, a neural network model is proposed for the Buying, Holding or Selling timing prediction in stocks by the price index of stocks by inputting the closing price and volume of dealing in stocks and the technical indexes(MACD, Psychological Line). This model has an equalized multi-layer arithmetic function as well as the time series prediction function of backpropagation neural network algorithm. In the case that the numbers of learning data are unbalanced among the three categories (Buying, Holding or Selling), the neural network with conventional method has the problem that it tries to improve only the prediction accuracy of the most dominant category. Therefore, this paper, after describing the structure, working and learning algorithm of the neural network, shows the equalized multi-layer arithmetic method controlling the numbers of learning data by using information about the importance of each category for improving prediction accuracy of other category. Experimental results show that the financial index prediction using the equalized multi-layer arithmetic neural network has much higher correctness rate than the other conventional models.
