Electro-Discharge machining (EDM) is a thermal process comprising a complex metal removal mechanism. This method works by forming of a plasma channel between the tool and the workpiece electrodes leading to the melting and evaporation of the material to be removed. EDM is considered especially suitable for machining complex contours with high accuracy, as well as for materials that are not amenable to conventional removal methods. However, several phenomena can arise and adversely affect the surface integrity of EDMed workpieces. These have to be taken into account and studied in order to optimize the process. Recently, artificial neural networks (ANN) have emerged as a novel modeling technique that can provide reliable results and readily, be integrated into several technological areas. In this paper, we use an ANN, namely, the multi-layer perceptron and the back propagation network (BPNN) to predict the mean surface roughness of electro-discharge machined surfaces. The comparison of the derived results with experimental findings demonstrates the promising potential of using back propagation neural networks (BPNNs) for getting a reliable and robust approximation of the Surface Roughness of Electro-discharge Machined Components.

자연 언어 처리(Natural Language Processing) 분야에 심층 신경망(Deep Neural Network)이 소개된 이후, 단어, 문장 등의 의미를 나타내기 위한 분산 표상인 임베딩(Embedding)을 학습하기 위한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 임베딩 학습을 위한 방법으로는 크게 문맥 기반의 텍스트 모델링 방법과, 기학습된 임베딩을 결합하여 더 긴 텍스트의 분산 표상을 계산하고자 하는 결합 기반의 텍스트 모델링 방법이 있다. 하지만, 기존 결합 기반의 텍스트 모델링 방법은 최적 결합 단위에 대한 고찰 없이 단어를 이용하여 연구되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 비교 실험을 통해 문서 임베딩 생성에 적합한 결합 기법과 최적 결합 단위에 대해 알아본다. 또한, 새로운 결합 방법인 담화 분석 기반의 결합 방식을 제안하고 실험을 통해 기존의 순차적 결합 기반 신경망 모델 대비 우수성을 보인다.

The process modeling for the growth rate in pulsed laser deposition(PLD)-grown ZnO thin films is investigated using neural networks(NNets) and the process recipes is optimized via genetic algorithms(GAs). D-optimal design is carried out and the growth rate is characterized by NNets based on the back-propagation(BP) algorithm. GAs is then used to search the desired recipes for the desired growth rate. The statistical analysis is used to verify the fitness of the nonlinear process model. This process modeling and optimization algorithms can explain the characteristics of the desired responses varying with process conditions.

This paper introduces an identification method for nonlinear models in the form of rule-based Fuzzy-Neural Networks (FNN). In this study, the development of the rule-based fuzzy neural networks focuses on the technologies of Computational Intelligence (CI), namely fuzzy sets, neural networks, and genetic algorithms. The FNN modeling and identification environment realizes parameter identification through synergistic usage of clustering techniques, genetic optimization and a complex search method. We use a HCM (Hard C-Means) clustering algorithm to determine initial apexes of the membership functions of the information granules used in this fuzzy model. The parameters such as apexes of membership functions, learning rates, and momentum coefficients are then adjusted using the identification algorithm of a GA hybrid scheme. The proposed GA hybrid scheme effectively combines the GA with the improved com-plex method to guarantee both global optimization and local convergence. An aggregate objective function (performance index) with a weighting factor is introduced to achieve a sound balance between approximation and generalization of the model. According to the selection and adjustment of the weighting factor of this objective function, we reveal how to design a model having sound approximation and generalization abilities. The proposed model is experimented with using several time series data (gas furnace, sewage treatment process, and NOx emission process data from gas turbine power plants).

In this paper, as a new category of fuzzy-neural networks architecture, we propose Fuzzy Polynomial Neural Networks (FPNN) and discuss a comprehensive design methodology related to its architecture. FPNN dwells on the ideas of fuzzy rule-based computing and neural networks. The FPNN architecture consists of layers with activation nodes based on fuzzy inference rules. Here each activation node is presented as Fuzzy Polynomial Neuron(FPN). The conclusion part of the rules, especially the regression polynomial, uses several types of high-order polynomials such as linear, quadratic and modified quadratic. As the premise part of the rules, both triangular and Gaussian-like membership functions are studied. It is worth stressing that the number of the layers and the nods in each layer of the FPNN are not predetermined, unlike in the case of the popular multilayer perceptron structure, but these are generated in a dynamic manner. With the aid of two representative time series process data, a detailed design procedure is discussed, and the stability is introduced as a measure of stability of the model for the comparative analysis of various architectures.

The study is concerned with an approach to the design of a new category of fuzzy neural networks. The proposed Fuzzy Polynomial Neural Networks(FPNN) with hybrid multi-layer inference architecture is based on fuzzy neural networks(FNN) and polynomial neural networks(PNN) for model identification of complex and nonlinear systems. The one and the other are considered as premise and consequence part of FPNN respectively. We introduce two kinds of FPNN architectures, namely the generic and advanced types depending on the connection points (nodes) of the layer of FNN. Owing to the specific features of two combined architectures, it is possible to consider the nonlinear characteristics of process and to get output performance with superb predictive ability. The availability and feasibility of the FPNN is discussed and illustrated with the aid of two representative numerical examples. The results show that the proposed FPNN can produce the model with higher accuracy and predictive ability than any other method presented previously.

This paper describes an adaptive recommendation system that provides real-time personalized trading advice to the investors based on their profiles and trading information environment. A proposed system integrates Stochastic technical analysis and artificial neural network that incorporates an adaptive user modeling. The user model is constructed and updated based on initial user profile and recorded user interactions with the system. The information presented to each individual user is also tailor-made to fit the user's behavior and preference. A system prototype was implemented in JAVA. Experiments used to evaluate the system's performance were done on both human subjects and synthetic users. The results show our proposed system is able to rapidly learn to provide appropriate advice to different types of users.

전통적인 동적 시스템의 제어에는 제어대상의 정확한 수학적 모델링이 필요하다. 그러나 동적 시스템의 모델링은 복잡한 상태방정식과 많은 제어파라메터들에 의해 매우 복잡한 계산과정을 필요로 한다. 그러므로, 본 논문에서는 신경회로망을 이용한 동적 시스템의 상태 공간 인식 모델을 제안하였으며, 제안된 신경회로망을 학습시키기 위하여 가우스-뉴턴 방법을 사용하였다. 본 논문에서 제안된 신경회로망 모델은 시소 시스템 인식문제를 컴퓨터 모이실험을 통해 효과적임을 보였다.
