We propose the VS³-NET model to solve the task of question answering questions with machine-reading comprehension that searches for an appropriate answer in a given context. VS³-NET is a model that trains latent variables for each question using variational inferences based on a model of a simple recurrent unit-based sentences and self-matching networks. The types of questions vary, and the answers depend on the type of question. To perform efficient inference and learning, we introduce neural question-type models to approximate the prior and posterior distributions of the latent variables, and we use these approximated distributions to optimize a reparameterized variational lower bound. The context given in machine-reading comprehension usually comprises several sentences, leading to performance degradation caused by context length. Therefore, we model a hierarchical structure using sentence encoding, in which as the context becomes longer, the performance degrades. Experimental results show that the proposed VS³-NET model has an exact-match score of 76.8% and an F1 score of 84.5% on the SQuAD test set.

Weeds are a major object which is very harmful to crops. To remove the weeds effectively, we have to classify them accurately and use herbicides. As computing technology has developed, image-based machine learning methods have been studied in this field, specially convolutional neural network(CNN) based models have shown good performance in public image dataset. However, CNN with numerous training parameters and high computational amount. Thus, it works under high hardware condition of expensive GPUs in real application. To solve these problems, in this paper, a hierarchical architecture based deep-learning model is proposed. The experimental results show that the proposed model successfully classify 21 species of the exotic weeds. That is, the model achieve 97.2612% accuracy with a small number of parameters. Our proposed model with a few parameters is expected to be applicable to actual application of network based classification services.

In this paper, we proposed the new fuzzy pattern classifier which combines several fuzzy models with simple consequent parts hierarchically. The basic component of the proposed fuzzy pattern classifier with hierarchical structure is a fuzzy model with simple consequent part so that the complexity of the proposed fuzzy pattern classifier is not high. In order to analyze and divide the input space, we use Fuzzy C-Means clustering algorithm. In addition, we exploit Conditional Fuzzy C-Means clustering algorithm to analyze the sub space which is divided by Fuzzy C-Means clustering algorithm. At each clustered region, we apply a fuzzy model with simple consequent part and build the fuzzy pattern classifier with hierarchical structure. Because of the hierarchical structure of the proposed pattern classifier, the data distribution of the input space can be analyzed in the macroscopic point of view and the microscopic point of view. Finally, in order to evaluate the classification ability of the proposed pattern classifier, the machine learning data sets are used.

It is necessary to develop a system to judge inferiority of goods to minimize the loss at small factories in which produces various kinds of goods with small amounts. That system can be developed based on HTM theory. HTM is a model to apply the operation principles of the neocortex in human brain to the machine learning. We have to build the trained HTM network to use the HTM-based machine learning system. It requires the knowledge for the HTM theory. This paper presents the design and implementation of the training system to support the development of HTM networks which recognize the molding parts to judge its badness. This training system allows field technicians to train the HTM network with high accuracy without the knowledge of the HTM theory. It also can be applied to any kind of the HTM-based judging systems for molding parts.

In order to identify the latest research trends using data related to national R&D projects and to produce and utilize meaningful information, the application of automatic classification technology was also required in the national R&D information service, so we conducted research to automatically classify and recommend research field. About 450,000 cases of national R&D project data from 2013 to 2020 were collected and used for learning and evaluation. A model was selected after data pre-processing, analysis, and performance analysis for valid data among collected data. The performance of Word2vec, GloVe, and fastText was compared for the purpose of deriving the optimal model combination. As a result of the experiment, the accuracy of only the subcategories used as essential items of task information is 90.11%. This model is expected to be applicable to the automatic classification study of other classification systems with a hierarchical structure similar to that of the national science and technology standard classification research field.

Optical remote sensing sensors provide visually more familiar images than radar images. However, it is difficult to discriminate sea ice types in optical images using spectral information based machine learning algorithms. This study addresses two topics. First, we propose a semantic segmentation which is a part of the state-of-the-art deep learning algorithms to identify ice types by learning hierarchical and spatial features of sea ice. Second, we propose a new approach by combining of semi-supervised and active learning to obtain accurate and meaningful labels from unlabeled or unseen images to improve the performance of supervised classification for multiple images. Therefore, we successfully added new labels from unlabeled data to automatically update the semantic segmentation model. This should be noted that an operational system to generate ice type products from optical remote sensing data may be possible in the near future.

Clustering is a most powerful un-supervised machine learning techniques for division of instances into homogenous group, which is called cluster. This Clustering is mainly used for generating a good quality of cluster through which we can discover hidden patterns and knowledge from the large datasets. It has huge application in different field like in medicine field, healthcare, gene-expression, image processing, agriculture, fraud detection, profitability analysis etc. The goal of this paper is to explore both hierarchical as well as partitioning clustering and understanding their problem with various approaches for their solution. Among different clustering K-means is better than other clustering due to its linear time complexity. Further this paper also focused on data mining that dealing with high-dimensional datasets with their problems and their existing approaches for their relevancy

When a hierarchical structure is derived from data set for data mining and machine learning, using a conceptual clustering algorithm, one of the unsupervised learning paradigms, it is not unusual to have a different set of outcomes with respect to the order of processing data objects. To overcome this problem, the first classification process is proceeded to construct an initial partition. The partition is expected to imply the possible range in the number of final classes. We apply center sorting to the data objects in the classes of the partition for new data ordering and build a new partition using ITERATE clustering procedure. We developed an algorithm, REIT that leads to the final partition with stable and best partition score. A number of experiments were performed to show the minimization of order bias effects using the algorithm.

Quantum error correction is a key technology for achieving fault-tolerant quantum computation. Finding the best decoding solution to a single error syndrome pattern counteracting multiple errors is an NP-hard problem. Consequently, error decoding is one of the most expensive processes to protect the information in a logical qubit. Recent research on quantum error decoding has been focused on developing conventional and neural-network-based decoding algorithms to satisfy accuracy, speed, and scalability requirements. Although conventional decoding methods have notably improved accuracy in short codes, they face many challenges regarding speed and scalability in long codes. To overcome such problems, machine learning has been extensively applied to neural-network-based error decoding with meaningful results. Nevertheless, when using neural-network-based decoders alone, the learning cost grows exponentially with the code size. To prevent this problem, hierarchical error decoding has been devised by combining conventional and neural-network-based decoders. In addition, research on quantum error decoding is aimed at reducing the spacetime decoding cost and solving the backlog problem caused by decoding delays when using hardware-implemented decoders in cryogenic environments. We review the latest research trends in decoders for quantum error correction with high accuracy, neural-network-based quantum error decoders with high speed and scalability, and hardware-based quantum error decoders implemented in real qubit operating environments.

Construction industry is one of the most dangerous industry. As the construction accidents occur due to the repeated factors found in each accidents, there is a limitation in analyzing all types of occupational accidents by the existing descriptive analysis and statistical test. In this study, we classified safety accidents caused by falling objects among the accident types occurring at construction sites into fatal and nonfatal accidents and deduced the factors. In addition, we deduced the association rules among the safety accidents factors caused by falling objects through the association rule analysis method among the machine learning techniques. Therefore, considering the association rules for fatal and nonfatal accidents proposed in this study, it would be possible to prevent accidents by searching for countermeasures against safety accidents caused by falling objects.
