The increased usage of Magnetic Resonance Image (MRI) required the method for automatic segmentation of medical image that is more useful so as to diagnose the dissecitive information of a atient quickly and effectively through MR scans.The use of neural networks may give much hep to solving the complex problems concerned the matter. This paper proposes the new method for automatic segmentation of magnetic resonance (MR) images of the brain by using neural networks brained by back-propagation algorithm. The trained neural networks by the segmenting MR images of a patient produce an output that networks can segment MR images of the other patients automatically, too and show a clear image of the brain.

The Air Quality Sensor(AQS), located near the fresh air inlet, serves to reduce the amount of pollution entering the vehicle cabin through the HVAC(heating, ventilating, and air conditioning) system by sending a signal to close the fresh air inlet door/ventilation flap when the vehicle enters a high pollution area. One chip sensor module which include above two sensing elements, humidity sensor and bad odor sensor was developed for AQS (air quality sensor) in automobile. With this sensor module, PIC microcontroller was designed with back propagation neural network to reduce detecting error when the motor vehicles pass through the dense fog area. The signal from neural network was modified to control the inlet of automobile and display the result or alarm the situation. One chip microcontroller, Atmega128L (ATmega Ltd., USA) was used. For the control and display. And our developed system can intelligently detect the bad odor when the motor vehicles pass through the polluted air zone such as cattle farm.

We developed an iterative algorithm which could improve the resolution of reconstructed tomograms having random attenuation patterns and analyzed the limitation of this algorithm. The simple back-and forth propagation algorithm has depth resolution about four wavelengths. An iterative algorithm, based on back-and-forth propagation, can be used to improve the resolution of reconstructed tomograms. We analyzed the wavefield for multi-layered specimen and programmed iterative algorithm using Clanguage. Simulation results show that the images get clearer as the number of iterations increases. Also, unambiguous images can be reconstructed using this algorithm even when the layer separation is only two wavelengths. However, this iteration algorithm comes up with an incorrect solution for the number of projections less than five.

This paper presents a newly developed speed sensorless drive using Neural Network algorithm. Neural Network algorithm can be divided into three categories. In the first one, a Back Propagation-based NN algorithm is well-known to gradient descent method. In the second scheme, a Extended Kalman Filter-based NN algorithm has just the time varying learning rate. In the last scheme, a Recursive Least Square-based NN algorithm is faster and more stable than the classical back-propagation algorithm for training multilayer perceptrons. The number of iterations required to converge and the mean-squared error between the desired and actual outputs is compared with respect to each method. The theoretical analysis and experimental results are discussed.

본 연구의 목적은 VECM(Vector Error Correction Model)과 인공지능모형(Artificial Neural Networks)을 이용하여 우리나라 증권시장과 거시경제 변수들과의 장기적 관계에 대한 설명력을 비교해보고자 함에 있다. VECM이 APT(Arbitrage Pricing Theory)에 기초를 둔 선형동학모형이라고 한다면, 인공지능모형은 비모수적 비선형모형이라는 점에서, 두 방법론의 분석결과를 직접 비판하는 것은 의미있는 연구라고 할 수 있다. 인공지능모형을 주로 활용하는 선행연구들에 의하면, 증권시장은 시장의 특이패턴들로 인해 계량경제학적 접근인 선형 모형보다는 인공지능모형을 통해 증권시장의 움직임을 설명하고 예측하는 것이 더 바람직할 수도 있다는 것이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 VECM분석에서 자료의 안정성을 검증하고, 공적분 백터를 발견한 이후, 장기적 균형관계의 실증적 분석을 하였다. 그리고, 인공지능모형에서는 delta rule과 Sigmoid 함수를 이용한 GRNN(General Regression Neural Net)과 Back-Propagation등의 방법들을 활용하였다. 이러한 분석결과, Back-Propagation 모형이 다른 모든 모형들보다도 더 우수한 설명력을 보여주고 있었다. 이러한 결과들은 인공지능모형이 동태적인 선형 모형보다도 더 우수한 설명력을 제공할 수 있는 가능성을 보여주고 있었다.

Determining the absolute location of a mobile robot is essential in the navigation of a mobile robot. In this paper, a method to determine the position of a mobile robot through the visual image of a landrnark using neural networks is proposed. In determining the position of a mobile robot on the world coordinate, there is a position error because of uncertainty in pixels, incorrect camera calibration and lens distortion. To reduce the errors, a method using a BPNN(Back Propagation Neural Network) is proposed. The experimental results are presented to illustrate the superiority of the proposed method when comparing with the conventional methods.

Up to now, the existing crack growth modelling has used a mathematical approximation but an assumed function have a great influence on this method. Especially, crack growth behavior that shows very strong nonlinearity needed complicated function which has difficulty in setting parameter of it. The main characteristics of neural network modelling to engineering field are simple calculations and absence of assumed function. In this paper, after discussing learning and generalization of neural networks, we performed crack growth modelling on the basis of above learning algorithms. J'-da/dt relation predicted by neural networks shows that test condition with unlearned data is simulated well within estimated mean error(5%).

In this paper. we present a neuro-fuzzy controller which unifies both fuzzy logic and multi-layered feed forward neural networks. Fuzzy logic provides a means for converting linguistic control knowledge into control actions. On the other hand. feed forward neural networks provide salient features. such as learning and parallelism. In the proposed neuro-fuzzy controller. the parameters of membership functions in the antecedent part of fuzzy inference rules are identified by using the error back propagation algorithm as a learning rule. while the coefficients of the linear combination of input variables in the consequent part are determined by using the least square estimation method. Finally. the effectiveness of the proposed controller is verified through computer simulation for an inverted pole system.
