We investigate how a feedforward neural network works to separate a geometric region from its complement. Our investigations are restricted to regions in ${\mathbb{R}}$ or ${\mathbb{R}}^2$ including an interval, a triangular region, a disk and the union of two disjoint disks. We also examine what happens at each layer of the network.

In this paper, we present neural network for control of Left Ventricular Assist Device(LVAD) system with a pneumatically driven mock circulation system. Beat rate(BR), Systole-Diastole Rate(SDR) and flow rate are collected as the main variables of the LVAD system. System modeling is completed using the neural network with input variables(BR, SBR, their derivatives, actual flow) and output variable(actual flow). It is necessary to apply high perfomance control techniques, since the LVAD system represent nonlinear and time-varing characteristics. Fortunately. the neural network can be applied to control of a nonlinear dynamic system by learning capability In this study, we identify the LVAD system with neural network and control the LVAD system by PID controller and neural network feedforward controller. The ability and effectiveness of controlling the LVAD system using the proposed algorithm will be demonstrated by experiment.

In autonomous navigation systems, the need for fast and accurate image processing using deep learning and advanced sensor technologies is paramount. These systems rely heavily on the ability to process and interpret visual data swiftly and precisely to ensure safe and efficient navigation. Despite the critical importance of such capabilities, there has been a noticeable lack of research specifically focused on ship image classification for maritime applications. This gap highlights the necessity for more in-depth studies in this domain. In this paper, we aim to address this gap by presenting a comprehensive comparative study of ship image classification using two distinct neural network models: the Feedforward Neural Network (FNN) and the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). Our study involves the application of both models to the task of classifying ship images, utilizing a dataset specifically prepared for this purpose. Through our analysis, we found that the Convolutional Neural Network demonstrates significantly more effective performance in accurately classifying ship images compared to the Feedforward Neural Network. The findings from this research are significant as they can contribute to the advancement of core source technologies for maritime autonomous navigation systems. By leveraging the superior image classification capabilities of convolutional neural networks, we can enhance the accuracy and reliability of these systems. This improvement is crucial for the development of more efficient and safer autonomous maritime operations, ultimately contributing to the broader field of autonomous transportation technology.

This paper proposes a combined feedforward/feedback controller which uses jacobians of neural network. The jacobians are calculated form the neural network that identifies the nonlinear plant, which are used for designing a jacobian controller and for training a neural network controller. Normally, it takes much time to train the neural network controller. Combining the neural and the jacobian controller, it can be a stable controller from the beginning of training phase of neural network, and it can be implemented as a learning-while-functioning controller. Simulated resutls for the proposed controller show its effectiveness and better performances.

This paper proposes an auto-tuning method of feedforward signal in boiler control of thermal power plants by using the neural network. The neural network produces an optimal feedforward signal by tuning the weights of the network. The weights are adapted effectively by using the teaching signal of PI control output. The proposed method was evaluated based on a detailed simulator which expressed non-linear characteristics of the 600 MW actual thermal power plant at load chaning operations, showed effectiveness in the learning of the weights of the neural network, and gave an accurate control performance in the temperature control of the system. Through the evaluation, the proposed method was proved to be effectively applicable to the actual thermal plants as the automatic adjustment tool.

This paper presents structure optimization of a feedforward neural netowrk controller using the genetic algorithm. It is important to design the neural network with minimum structure for fast response and learning. To minimize the structure of the feedforward neural network, a genralization of multilayer neural netowrks, the genetic algorithm uses binary coding for the structure and floating-point coding for weights. Local search with an on-line learnign algorithm enhances the search performance and reduce the time for global search of the genetic algorithm. The relative fitness defined as the multiplication of the error and node functions prevents from premature convergence. The feedforward neural controller of smaller size outperformed conventional multilayer perceptron network controller.

This paper presents a precise tracking control scheme for the proposed parallel robot using artificial neural network. This control scheme is composed of three feedback controllers and one feedforward controller. Conventional PD controller and artificial neural network are used as feedback and feedforward controller respectively. A backpropagation learning strategy is applied to the training of artificial neural network, and PD controller outputs are used as target outputs. The PD controllers are designed at the robot dynamics based on inter-relationship between active joints and moving platform. Feedback controllers insure the total stability of system, and feedforward controller generates the control signal for trajectory tracking. The precise tracking performance of proposed control scheme is proved by computer simulation.
