Implementation of memristor-based multilayer neural networks and their hardware-based learning architecture is investigated in this paper. Two major functions of neural networks which should be embedded in synapses are programmable memory and analog multiplication. "Memristor", which is a newly developed device, has two such major functions in it. In this paper, multilayer neural networks are implemented with memristors. A Random Weight Change algorithm is adopted and implemented in circuits for its learning. Its hardware-based learning on neural networks is two orders faster than its software counterpart.

Multilayer neural network using a modified beackpropagation learning algorithm was introduced to achieve automatic identification of different types of aircraft in a variety of 3-D orientations. A 3-D shape of an aircraft can be described by a library of 2-D images corresponding to the projected views of an aircraft. From each 2-D binary aircraft image we extracted 2-D invariant (L, Φ) feature vector to be used for training neural network aircraft classifier. Simulations concerning the neural network classification rate was compared using nearest-neighbor classfier (NNC) which has been widely served as a performance benchmark. And we also introduced reliability measure of the designed neural network classifier.

To improve classification accuracy in this paper, we proposed an algorithm for the chromosome image reconstruction in the image preprocessing part. also we proposed the pattern classification method using the hierarchical multilayer neural network(HMNN) to classify the chromosome karyotype. It reconstructed chromosome images for twenty normal human chromosome by the image reconstruction algorithm. The four morphological and ten density feature parameters were extracted from the 920 reconstructed chromosome images. The each combined feature parameters of ten human chromosome images were used to learn HMNN(Hierarchical Multilayer Neural Network) and the rest of them were used to classify the chromosome images. The experimental results in this paper were composed to optimized HMNN and also obtained about 98.26% to recognition ratio.

In this paper, genetic algorithm (GA) is implemented to search for the optimal structures (i.e. the kind of neural networks, the number of inputs and hidden neurons) of neural networks which are used approximating a given nonlinear function. Two kinds of neural networks, i.e. the multilayer feedforward [1] and time delay neural networks (TDNN) [2] are involved in this paper. The synapse weights of each neural network in each generation are obtained by associated training algorithms. The simulation results of nonlinear function approximation are given out and some improvements in the future are outlined.

This paper presents a hybrid neural network system which used a Self-Organizing Map and Multilayer Perceptron for the problem of Malay syllables speech recognition. The novel idea in this system is the usage of a two-dimension Self-organizing feature map as a sequential mapping function which transform the phonetic similarities or acoustic vector sequences of the speech frame into trajectories in a square matrix where elements take on binary values. This property simplifies the classification task. An MLP is then used to classify the trajectories that each syllable in the vocabulary corresponds to. The system performance was evaluated for recognition of 15 Malay common syllables. The overall performance of the recognizer showed to be 91.8%.

Uninterrupted power supply has become indispensable during the maintenance task of active electric power lines as a result of today's highly information-oriented society and increasing demand of electric utilities. The maintenance task has the risk of electric shock and the danger of falling from high place. Therefore it is necessary to realize an autonomous robot system. In order to realize these tasks autonomously, the three dimensional position of target object such as electric line and the stand of insulator must be recognized accurately and rapidly. The approaching of an insulator and the wrenching of a nut task is selected as the typical task of the maintenance of active electric power distribution lines in this paper. Image recognition by multilayer neural network and optimal target position calculation method are newly proposed in order to recognize the center 3 dimensional position of the bolt hole in the stand of insulator. By the proposed image recognition method, it is proved that the center 3 dimensional position of the bolt hole can be recognized rapidly and accurately without regard to the pose of the stand of insulator. Finally the approaching and wrenching task is automatically realized using 6-link electro-hydraulic manipulators.

The statistical regression model is one of the most frequently used clinical analysis methods. It has basic assumption of linearity, additivity and normal distribution of data. However, most of biological data in medical field are nonlinear and unevenly distributed. To overcome the discrepancy between the basic assumption of statistical model and actual biological data, we propose a new analytical method based on artificial neural network. The newly developed multilayer perceptron(MLP) is trained with 120 data set (60 normal, 60 patient). On applying test data, it shows the discrimination power of 0.76. The diabetic risk factors were also identified from the MLP neural network model and the logistic regression model. The signigicant risk factors identified by MLP model were post prandial glucose level(PP2), sex(male), fasting blood sugar(FBS) level, age, SBP, AC and WHR. Those from the regression model are sex(male), PP2, age and FBS. The combined risk factors can be identified using the MLP model. Those are total cholesterol and body weight, which is consistent with the result of other clinical studies. From this experiment we have learned that MLP can be applied to the combined risk factor analysis of biological data which can not be provided by the conventional statistical method.

Neural networks-based fault diagnosis algorithm to detect and isolate faults in the nonlinear systems is proposed. In the proposed method, the fault is detected when the errors between the system output and the multilayer neural network-based nominal model output cross a Predetermined threshold. Once a fault in the system is detected, the system outputs are transferred to the fault classifier by nultilayer/ART2 NN (adaptive resonance theory 2 neural network) for fault isolation. From the computer simulation results, it is verified that the proposed fault diagonal method can be performed successfully to detect and isolate faults in a nonlinear system.

In this paper, we propose multiple component neural network(MCNN) which learn partitioned patterns in each multiple component neural networks by reducing dimensions of input pattern vector using PCA (principal component analysis). Procesed neural network use Oja's rule that has a role of PCA, output patterns are used a slearning patterns on small component neural networks and we call it CBP. For simply not solved patterns in a network, we solves it by regenerating new CBP neural networks and by performing dynamic partitioned pattern learning. Simulation results shows that proposed MCNN neural networks are very small size networks and have very fast learning speed compared with multilayer neural network EBP.

In this paper, we propose a new type of recurrent neural network architecture in which each output unit is connected with itself and fully-connected with other output units and all hidden units. The proposed recurrent network differs from Jordan's and Elman's recurrent networks in view of functions and architectures because it was originally extended from the multilayer feedforward neural network for improving the discrimination and generalization power. We also prove the convergence property of learning algorithm of the proposed recurrent neural network and analyze the performance of the proposed recurrent neural network by performing recognition experiments with the totally unconstrained handwritten numeral database of Concordia University of Canada. Experimental results confirmed that the proposed recurrent neural network improves the discrimination and generalization power in recognizing spatial patterns.
