로보트 매니퓰레이터의 신경 제어기 구성에 널리 사용하는 다층 신경회로망은 로보트의 불확실한 동적 파라메터 변화에 대한 강건한 학습 적응능력, 그리고 병렬 처리를 통한 실시간 제어등의 장점들을 갖고있다. 그러나 대표적인 학습방법인 오차 역전파(error back propagation) 알고리즘은 그 학습 속도가 느리다는 문제점을 갖는다. 본 논문에서는 불확실하고 애매한 정보를 언어적인 방법에 의해 효율적으로 처리할 수 있는 퍼지 논리 (fuzzy logic)를 도입하여 로보트 매니퓰레이터 신경 제어기의 학습 속도를 개선하기위한 한 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 제어기의 효용성은 PUMA 560 로보트의 모의 실험을 통해 입증된다.

The error back-propagation(BP) algorithm is widely used for finding optimum weights of multi-layer neural networks. However, the critical drawback of the BP algorithm is its slow convergence of error. The major reason for this slow convergence is the premature saturation which is a phenomenon that the error of a neural network stays almost constant for some period time during learning. An inappropriate selections of initial weights cause each neuron to be trapped in the premature saturation state, which brings in slow convergence speed of the multi-layer neural network. In this paper, to overcome the above problem, Micro-Genetic algorithms(.mu.-GAs) which can allow to find the near-optimal values, are used to select the proper weights and slopes of activation function of neurons. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithms will be demonstrated by some computer simulations of two d.o.f planar robot manipulator.

In this paper, the water quality forecast was performed on the BOD of the Chungju Dam using the ARIMA model, which is a nonlinear statistics model, and the artificial neural network model. The monthly data of water quality were collected from 1991 to 2000. The most appropriate ARIMA model for Chungju dam was found to be the multiplicative seasonal ARIMA(1,0,1)(1,0,1)$_{12}$, model. While the artificial neural network model, which is used relatively often in recent days, forecasts new data by the strength of a learned matrix like human neurons. The BOD values were forecasted using the back-propagation algorithm of multi-layer perceptrons in this paper. Artificial neural network model was com- posed of two hidden layers and the node number of each hidden layer was designed fifteen. It was demonstrated that the ARIMA model was more appropriate in terms of changes around the overall average, but the artificial neural net-work model was more appropriate in terms of reflecting the minimum and the maximum values.s.

In this paper we develope a hybrid learning rule to improve the robustness of multi-layer Perceptions. In most neural networks the activation of a neuron is deternined by a nonlinear transformation of the weighted sum of inputs to the neurons. Investigating the behaviour of activations of hidden layer neurons a new learning algorithm is developed for improved robustness for multi-layer Perceptrons. Unlike other methods which reduce the network complexity by putting restrictions on synaptic weights our method based on error-backpropagation increases the complexity of the underlying proplem by imposing it saturation requirement on hidden layer neurons. We also found that the additional gradient-descent term for the requirement corresponds to the Hebbian rule and our algorithm incorporates the Hebbian learning rule into the error back-propagation rule. Computer simulation demonstrates fast learning convergence as well as improved robustness for classification and hetero-association of patterns.

The relationships among multi-dimensional data (such as medical examination data) with ambiguity and variation are difficult to explore. The traditional approach to building a data classification system requires the formulation of rules by which the input data can be analyzed. The formulation of such rules is very difficult with large sets of input data. This paper first describes two classification approaches using back-propagation (BP) neural network and Mahalanobis distance (MD) classifier, and then proposes two classification approaches for multi-dimensional feature selection. The first one proposed is a feature selection procedure from the trained back-propagation (BP) neural network. The basic idea of this procedure is to compare the multiplication weights between input and hidden layer and hidden and output layer. In order to simplify the structure, only the multiplication weights of large absolute values are used. The second approach is Mahalanobis-Taguchi system (MTS) originally suggested by Dr. Taguchi. The MTS performs Taguchi's fractional factorial design based on the Mahalanobis distance as a performance metric. We combine the automatic thresholding with MD: it can deal with a reduced model, which is the focus of this paper In this work, two case studies will be used as examples to compare and discuss the complete and reduced models employing BP neural network and MD classifier. The implementation results show that proposed approaches are effective and powerful for the classification.

A neural network of multi layer perception type, learned by error back propagation learning rule, is generally used for the verification or clustering of similar type of patterns. When learning is completed, the network has a constant value of output depending on a pattern. This paper shows that the intensity of neuron's out put can be controlled by a function which intensifies the excitatory interconnection coefficients or the inhibitory one between neurons in output layer and those in hidden layer. In this paper the value of factor in the function to control the output is derived from the know values of the neural network after learning is completed And also this paper show that the amount of an increased neuron's output in output layer by arbitary value of the factor is derived. For the applications increased recognition performance of a pattern than has distortion is introduced and the output of partially damaged neurons are first managed and this paper shows that the reduced recognition performance can be recovered.

The multi-layer neural network that has broadly been utilized in designing the controller of robot manipulator possesses the desirable characteristics of learning capacity, by which the uncertain variation of the dynamic parameters of robot can be handled adaptively, and parallel distributed processing that makes it possible to control on real-time. However the error back propagation algorithm that has been utilized popularly in the learning of the multi-layer neural network has the problem of its slow convergencs speed. In this paper, an approach to improve the convergence speed is proposed using fuzzy logic that can effectively handle the uncertain and fuzzy informations by linguistic level. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated by computer simulation of PUMA 560 robot manipulator.

FRP(Fiber Reinforced Polymer)는 부식의 저항성, 고강도, 피로저항 능력 및 성형성 등에서 우수한 건설 신소재이다. 광섬유 브래그 격자(Fiber Bragg Grating; FBG) 센서는 전자기 저항, 작은 소재의 크기, 그리고 높은 내구성 등의 이점으로 smart sensor로서 현재 많이 사용되고 있다. 하지만 FBG 센서의 변위 측정 기술 능력의 부족으로 현재까지는 변형률, 온도 등의 물리량 측정센서로서 활용되고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 FRP와 FBG센서의 기능 복합화(Hybrid)를 통하여 smart FRP Rod를 개발 한 후 인장시험을 실시하였다. 또한, FBG센서에 의해 측정된 변형률 데이터를 신경망(Neural Network) 기법을 이용하여 변위 추정 모형을 개발함으로서 FBG 센서 단점인 변형률 계측만을 위한 센싱 역할을 극복하고자 한다. 인공신경망 모형은 MLP(Multi-layer Perceptron)로, 오차범위 0.001에 수렴 될 수 있도록 학습(training)을 실시하였다. 학습에는 비선형 목적함수와 역전파 학습(Back-propagation) 알고리즘을 적용하였으며 모형의 검증은 UTM에서 측정된 변위 값과 수치해석에 의한 결과 값을 비교함으로서 실시하였다.

In this research, a web-based design support system is constructed for the design process of automotive steel pulley to gather engineering knowledge from pulley design data. In the design search module, a clustering tool for design data is proposed using K-means clustering algorithm. To obtain correlational patterns between design and FEA (Finite Element Analysis) data, a Multi-layer Back Propagation Network (MBPN) is applied. With the analyzed patterns from a number of simulation data, an estimation of minimum von mises can be provided for given design parameters of pulleys. The case study revealed fast estimation of minimum stress in the pulley within 12% error.
