A number of studies have recently been made on hardware for a biological neuron f3r application with information processing functions of neural networks. We have been trying to produce hardware from the viewpoint that development of a new hardware neuron model is one of the important problems in the study of neural networks. In this paper, we first discuss the circuit structure of a pulse-type hardware neuron model with the enhancement-mode MOSFETs (E-MOSFETs). And we construct a pulse-type hardware neuron model using I-MOSFETs. As a result, it is shown that our proposed new model can exhibit firing phenomena even if the power supply voltage becomes less than 1.5[V]. So it is verified that our model is profitable for IC.

The objective of this study is to develop generalized regression neural networks (GRNN) model for estimating daily solar radiation using limited weather variables at Champaign and Springfield stations in Illinois. The best input combinations (one, two, and three inputs) can be identified using GRNN model. From the performance evaluation and scatter diagrams of GRNN model, GRNN 3 (three input) model produces the best results for both stations. Results obtained indicate that GRNN model can successfully be used for the estimation of daily global solar radiation at Champaign and Springfield stations in Illinois. These results testify the generation capability of GRNN model and its ability to produce accurate estimates in Illinois.

For real-time recognizing of model objects in remote position a new Neural Networks algorithm is proposed. The proposed neural networks technique is the real time computation methods through the inter-node diffusion. In the networks, a node corresponds to a state in the quantized input space. Each node is composed of a processing unit and fixed weights from its neighbor nodes as well as its input terminal. The most reliable algorithm derived for real time recognition of objects, is a dynamic programming based algorithm based on sequence matching techniques that would process the data as it arrives and could therefore provide continuously updated neighbor information estimates. Through several simulation experiments, real time reconstruction of the nonlinear image information is processed. 1-D LIPN hardware has been composed and various experiments with static and dynamic signals have been implemented.

Model-based inversion tools for eddy current signals have been developed by combining neural networks and finite element modeling, for quantitative flaw characterization in steam generator tubes. In the present work, interpretation of experimental eddy current signals was carried out in order to validate the developed inversion tools. A database was constructed using the synthetic flaw signals generated by the finite element model. The hybrid neural networks composed of a PNN classifier and BPNN size estimators were trained using the synthetic signals. Experimental eddy current signals were obtained from axisymmetric artificial flaws. Interpretation of flaw signals was conducted by feeding the experimental signals into the neural networks. The interpretation was excellent, which shows that the developed inversion tools would be applicable to the Interpretation of real eddy current signals.

In this paper, the recurrent neural networks (RNN) is applied to compensate for HMM recognition algorithm, which is commonly used as main recognizer. Among these recurrent neural networks, the multi-layer recurrent neural prediction model (MRNPM), which allows operating in real-time, is used to implement learning and recognition, and HMM and MRNPM are used to design a hybrid-type main recognizer. After testing the designed speech recognition algorithm with Korean number pronunciations (13 words), which are hardly distinct, for its speech-independent recognition ratio, about 5% improvement was obtained comparing with existing HMM recognizers. Based on this result, only optimal (recognition) codes were extracted in the actual DSP (TMS320C6711) environment, and the embedded speech recognition system was implemented. Similarly, the implementation result of the embedded system showed more improved recognition system implementation than existing solid HMM recognition systems.

The corporate credit rating represents an assessment of the relative level of risk associated with the timely payments required by the debt obligation. In this study, the corporate credit rating model employs artificial intelligence methods including Neural Network (NN) and Case-Based Reasoning (CBR). At first we suggest three classification models, as partitioned neural networks, all of which convert multi-group classification problems into two group classification ones: Ordinal Pairwise Partitioning (OPP) model, binary classification model and simple classification model. The experimental results show that the partitioned NN outperformed the conventional NN. In addition, we put to use CBR that is widely used recently as a problem-solving and learning tool both in academic and business areas. With an advantage of the easiness in model design compared to a NN model, the CBR model proves itself to have good classification capability through the highest hit ratio in the corporate credit rating.

It is well known that human brain has the advantage of handling disperse and parallel distributed data efficiently. On the basic of this fact, artificial neural networks theory was developed and has been applied to various fields of science successfully. In this study, error back propagation algorithm which is one of the teaching technique of artificial neural networks is applied to predict ultimate bearing capacity of pile foundations. For the verification of applicability of this system, a total of 28 data of model pile test results are used. The 9, 14 and 21 test data respectively out of the total 28 data are used for training the networks, and the others are used for the comparison between the predicted and the measured. The results show that the developed system can provide a good matching with model pile test results by training with data more than 14. These limited results show the possibility of utilizing the neural networks for pile capacity prediction problems.

An efficient and robust neural network-based scheme is introduced in this paper to perform automatic cloud detection. Unlike many existing cloud detection schemes which use thresholding and statistical methods, we used the artificial neural network methods, the multi-layer perceptrons (MLP) with back-propagation algorithm and radial basis function (RBF) networks for cloud detection from Geostationary satellite images. We have used a simple scene (a mixed scene containing only cloud and clear sky). The main results show that the neural networks are able to handle complex atmospheric and meteorological phenomena. The experimental results show that two methods performed well, obtaining a classification accuracy reaching over 90 percent. Moreover, the RBF model is the most effective method for the cloud classification.

This study proposes a system identification technique for a fiber-reinforced polymer deck with neural networks. Neural networks are trained for system identification and the identified structure gives training data in return. This process is repeated until the identified parameters converge. Hence, the proposed algorithm is called an iterative neural network scheme. The proposed algorithm also relies on recent developments in the experimental design of the response surface method. The proposed strategy is verified with known systems and applied to a fiber-reinforced polymer bridge deck with experimental data.

Understanding actions in videos is an important task. It helps in finding the anomalies present in videos such as fights. Detection of fights becomes more crucial when it comes to sports. This paper focuses on finding fight scenes in Hockey sport videos using blur & radon transform and convolutional neural networks (CNNs). First, the local motion within the video frames has been extracted using blur information. Next, fast fourier and radon transform have been applied on the local motion. The video frames with fight scene have been identified using transfer learning with the help of pre-trained deep learning model VGG-Net. Finally, a comparison of the methodology has been performed using feed forward neural networks. Accuracies of 56.00% and 75.00% have been achieved using feed forward neural network and VGG16-Net, respectively.
