End-to-end (E2E) automatic speech recognition (ASR) has achieved promising performance gains with the introduced self-attention network, Transformer. However, due to training time and the number of hyperparameters, finding the optimal hyperparameter set is computationally expensive. This paper investigates the impact of hyperparameters in the Transformer network to answer two questions: which hyperparameter plays a critical role in the task performance and training speed. The Transformer network for training has two encoder and decoder networks combined with Connectionist Temporal Classification (CTC). We have trained the model with Wall Street Journal (WSJ) SI-284 and tested on devl93 and eval92. Seventeen hyperparameters were selected from the ESPnet training configuration, and varying ranges of values were used for experiments. The result shows that "num blocks" and "linear units" hyperparameters in the encoder and decoder networks reduce Word Error Rate (WER) significantly. However, performance gain is more prominent when they are altered in the encoder network. Training duration also linearly increased as "num blocks" and "linear units" hyperparameters' values grow. Based on the experimental results, we collected the optimal values from each hyperparameter and reduced the WER up to 2.9/1.9 from dev93 and eval93 respectively.

Stock price prediction is an important topic extensively discussed in the financial market, but it is considered a challenging subject due to numerous factors that can influence it. In this research, performance was compared and analyzed by applying time series prediction models (LSTM, GRU) and non-time series prediction models (RF, SVR, KNN, LGBM) that do not take into account the temporal dependence of data into stock price prediction. In addition, various data such as stock price data, technical indicators, financial statements indicators, buy sell indicators, short selling, and foreign indicators were combined to find optimal predictors and analyze major factors affecting stock price prediction by industry. Through the hyperparameter optimization process, the process of improving the prediction performance for each algorithm was also conducted to analyze the factors affecting the performance. As a result of feature selection and hyperparameter optimization, it was found that the forecast accuracy of the time series prediction algorithm GRU and LSTM+GRU was the highest.

Alzheimer's disease is one of the challenges to tackle in the coming aging era and is attempting to diagnose and predict through various biomarkers. While the application of various deep learning-based technologies as powerful imaging technologies has recently expanded across the medical industry, empirical design is not easy because there are various deep earning neural networks architecture and categorical hyperparameters that rely on problems and data to solve. In this paper, we show the possibility of optimizing a deep learning neural network structure and hyperparameters for Alzheimer's disease classification in amyloid brain images in a representative deep earning neural networks architecture using genetic algorithms. It was observed that the optimal deep learning neural network structure and hyperparameter were chosen as the values of the experiment were converging.

Emotion is a psycho-physiological process that plays an important role in human interactions. Affective computing is centered on the development of human-aware artificial intelligence that can understand and regulate emotions. This field of study is also critical as mental diseases such as depression, autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and game addiction are associated with emotion. Despite the efforts in emotions recognition and emotion detection from nonstationary, detecting emotions from abnormal EEG signals requires sophisticated learning algorithms because they require a high level of abstraction. In this paper, we investigated LSTM hyperparameters for an optimal emotion EEG classification. Results of several experiments are hereby presented. From the results, optimal LSTM hyperparameter configuration was achieved.

This study is a study on classifying land cover by applying high-resolution satellite images to deep learning algorithms and verifying the performance of algorithms for each spatial object. For this, the Fully Convolutional Network-based algorithm was selected, and a dataset was constructed using Kompasat-3 satellite images, land cover maps, and forest maps. By applying the constructed data set to the algorithm, each optimal hyperparameter was calculated. Final classification was performed after hyperparameter optimization, and the overall accuracy of DeeplabV3+ was calculated the highest at 81.7%. However, when looking at the accuracy of each category, SegNet showed the best performance in roads and buildings, and U-Net showed the highest accuracy in hardwood trees and discussion items. In the case of Deeplab V3+, it performed better than the other two models in fields, facility cultivation, and grassland. Through the results, the limitations of applying one algorithm for land cover classification were confirmed, and if an appropriate algorithm for each spatial object is applied in the future, it is expected that high quality land cover classification results can be produced.

태양광 에너지는 탄소 중립 이행을 위한 주요 방안으로 많은 주목을 받고 있다. 태양광 발전량은 여러 환경적 요인에 따라 크게 달라질 수 있으므로, 정확한 발전량 예측은 전력 네트워크의 안정성과 효율적인 에너지 관리에 근본적으로 중요하다. 대표적인 인공지능 기술인 신경망(Neural Network)은 불안정한 환경 변수와 복잡한 상호작용을 효과적으로 학습할 수 있어 태양광 발전량 예측에서 우수한 성능을 도출하였다. 하지만, 신경망은 모델의 구조나 초매개변수(Hyperparameter)를 최적화하는 것은 복잡하고 시간이 많이 드는 작업이므로, 에너지 분야에서 실제 산업 적용에 한계가 존재한다. 본 논문은 2단계 신경망 최적화를 통한 태양광 발전량 예측 기법을 제안한다. 먼저, 태양광 발전량 데이터 셋을 훈련 집합과 평가 집합으로 분할한다. 훈련 집합에서, 각기 다른 은닉층의 개수로 구성된 여러 신경망 모델을 구성하고, 모델별로 Optuna를 적용하여 최적의 초매개변숫값을 선정한다. 다음으로, 은닉층별 최적화된 신경망 모델을 이용해 훈련과 평가 집합에서는 각각 5겹 교차검증을 적용한 발전량 추정값과 예측값을 출력한다. 마지막으로, 스태킹 앙상블 방식을 채택해 기본 초매개변숫값으로 설정해도 우수한 성능을 도출하는 랜덤 포레스트를 이용하여 추정값을 학습하고, 평가 집합의 예측값을 입력으로 받아 최종 태양광 발전량을 예측한다. 인천 지역으로 실험한 결과, 제안한 방식은 모델링이 간편할 뿐만 아니라 여러 신경망 모델보다 우수한 예측 성능을 도출하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 국내 에너지 산업에 이바지할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

The performance of machine learning algorithms significantly depends on how a configuration of hyperparameters is identified and how a neural network architecture is designed. However, this requires expert knowledge of relevant task domains and a prohibitive computation time. To optimize these two processes using minimal effort, many studies have investigated automated machine learning in recent years. This paper reviews the conventional random, grid, and Bayesian methods for hyperparameter optimization (HPO) and addresses its recent approaches, which speeds up the identification of the best set of hyperparameters. We further investigate existing neural architecture search (NAS) techniques based on evolutionary algorithms, reinforcement learning, and gradient derivatives and analyze their theoretical characteristics and performance results. Moreover, future research directions and challenges in HPO and NAS are described.

In recent years, the number of devices being connected to the internet has grown enormously, as has the intrusive behavior in the network. Thus, it is important for intrusion detection systems to report all intrusive behavior. Using deep learning and machine learning algorithms, intrusion detection systems are able to perform well in identifying attacks. However, the concern with these deep learning algorithms is their inability to identify a suitable network based on traffic volume, which requires manual changing of hyperparameters, which consumes a lot of time and effort. So, to address this, this paper offers a solution using the extended compact genetic algorithm for the automatic tuning of the hyperparameters. The novelty in this work comes in the form of modeling the problem of identifying attacks as a multi-objective optimization problem and the usage of linkage learning for solving the optimization problem. The solution is obtained using the feature map-based Convolutional Neural Network that gets encoded into genes, and using the extended compact genetic algorithm the model is optimized for the detection accuracy and latency. The CIC-IDS-2017 and 2018 datasets are used to verify the hypothesis, and the most recent analysis yielded a substantial F1 score of 99.23%. Response time, CPU, and memory consumption evaluations are done to demonstrate the suitability of this model in a fog environment.

The technology that recognizes a soldier's motion and movement status has recently attracted large attention as a combination of wearable technology and artificial intelligence, which is expected to upend the paradigm of troop management. The accuracy of state determination should be maintained at a high-end level to make sure of the expected vital functions both in a training situation; an evaluation and solution provision for each individual's motion, and in a combat situation; overall enhancement in managing troops. However, when input data is given as a timer series or sequence, existing feedforward networks would show overt limitations in maximizing classification performance. Since human behavior data (3-axis accelerations and 3-axis angular velocities) handled for military motion recognition requires the process of analyzing its time-dependent characteristics, this study proposes a high-performance data-driven classifier which utilizes the long-short term memory to identify the order dependence of acquired data, learning to classify eight representative military operations (Sitting, Standing, Walking, Running, Ascending, Descending, Low Crawl, and High Crawl). Since the accuracy is highly dependent on a network's learning conditions and variables, manual adjustment may neither be cost-effective nor guarantee optimal results during learning. Therefore, in this study, we optimized hyperparameters using Bayesian optimization for maximized generalization performance. As a result, the final architecture could reduce the error rate by 62.56% compared to the existing network with a similar number of learnable parameters, with the final accuracy of 98.39% for various military operations.
