In this paper, We discuss optical implementation of new optical adaptive patern recognition system based on single layer perception with learning capability and associative memory model having error corrective capability. The single layer perceptron is optically implemented by using 2 D LCTV spatial light modulators through the nonlinear quantization and polarization encoding methods, and 2 D hopfield associative memory is also implemented by using multifocus holographic lens. From some experimental results on classfication of Arabic numbers into even & edd numbers, it is shown that the proposed system can classify the patterns to the right classes correctly even for the partial and erronenous input patterns. Accordingly, the proposed optical adaptive pattern recognition system can be suggested for practical application in the fields of image processing and pattern recognition.

Void fraction is an important parameter in the oil industry. This quantity is necessary for volume rate measurement in multiphase flows. In this study, the void fraction percentage was estimated precisely, independent of the flow regime in gas-liquid two-phase flows by using ${\gamma}-ray$ attenuation and a multilayer perceptron neural network. In all previous studies that implemented a multibeam ${\gamma}-ray$ attenuation technique to determine void fraction independent of the flow regime in two-phase flows, three or more detectors were used while in this study just two NaI detectors were used. Using fewer detectors is of advantage in industrial nuclear gauges because of reduced expense and improved simplicity. In this work, an artificial neural network is also implemented to predict the void fraction percentage independent of the flow regime. To do this, a multilayer perceptron neural network is used for developing the artificial neural network model in MATLAB. The required data for training and testing the network in three different regimes (annular, stratified, and bubbly) were obtained using an experimental setup. Using the technique developed in this work, void fraction percentages were predicted with mean relative error of <1.4%.

Multi-Layer Perceptron network has been mainly applied to many practical problems because of its nonlinear mapping ability. However the generalization ability of MLP networks may be affected by the number of hidden nodes, the initial values of weights and the training errors. These factors, if improperly chosen, may result in poor generalization ability of MLP networks. It is important to identify these factors and their interaction in order to control effectively the generalization ability of MLP networks. In this paper, we have empirically identified the factors that affect the generalization ability of MLP networks, and compared their relative effects on the generalization performance for the conventional and visualized weight selecting methods using the controller box.

Of the total economic loss caused by disasters, 40% are due to floods and floods have a severe impact on human health and life. So, it is important to monitor the water level of a river and to issue a flood warning during unfavorable circumstances. In this paper, we propose a modified error function to improve a hydrological modeling using a multi-layer perceptron (MLP) neural network. When MLP's are trained to minimize the conventional mean-squared error function, the prediction performance is poor because MLP's are highly tunned to training data. Our goal is achieved by preventing overspecialization to training data, which is the main reason for performance degradation for rare or test data. Based on the modified error function, an MLP is trained to predict the water level with rainfall data at upper reaches. Through simulations to predict the water level of Nakdong River near a UNESCO World Heritage Site "Hahoe Village," we verified that the prediction performance of MLP with the modified error function is superior to that with the conventional mean-squared error function, especially maximum error of 40.85cm vs. 55.51cm.

In this study, we introduce and investigate a class of dynamic perceptron architectures, discuss a comprehensive design methodology and carry out a series of numeric experiments. The proposed dynamic perceptron architectures are called as Polynomial Neural Networks(PNN). PNN is a flexible neural architecture whose topology is developed through learning. In particular, the number of layers of the PNN is not fixed in advance but is generated on the fly. In this sense, PNN is a self-organizing network. PNN has two kinds of networks, Polynomial Neuron(FPN)-based and Fuzzy Polynomial Neuron(FPN)-based networks, according to a polynomial structure. The essence of the design procedure of PN-based Self-organizing Polynomial Neural Networks(SOPNN) dwells on the Group Method of Data Handling (GMDH) [1]. Each node of the SOPNN exhibits a high level of flexibility and realizes a polynomial type of mapping (linear, quadratic, and cubic) between input and output variables. FPN-based SOPNN dwells on the ideas of fuzzy rule-based computing and neural networks. Simulations involve a series of synthetic as well as experimental data used across various neurofuzzy systems. A detailed comparative analysis is included as well.

Purpose: The objective of this study was to develop a multilayer perceptron (MLP) model to estimate solar radiation using a solar module. Methods: Data for the short-circuit current of a solar module and other environmental parameters were collected for a year. For MLP learning, 14,400 combinations of input variables, learning rates, activation functions, numbers of layers, and numbers of neurons were trained. The best MLP model employed the batch backpropagation algorithm with all input variables and two hidden layers. Results: The root-mean-squared error (RMSE) of each learning cycle and its average over three repetitions were calculated. The average RMSE of the best artificial neural network model was $48.13W{\cdot}m^{-2}$. This result was better than that obtained for the regression model, for which the RMSE was $66.67W{\cdot}m^{-2}$. Conclusions: It is possible to utilize a solar module as a power source and a sensor to measure solar radiation for an agricultural sensor node.

With many announcements on air pollution and human effects from particulate matters, particulate matter forecasts are attracting a lot of public attention. As a result, various efforts have been made to increase the accuracy of particulate matter forecasting by using statistical modeling and machine learning technique. In this paper, the particulate matter AQI index prediction is performed using the multilayer perceptron neural network for particulate matter prediction. For this purpose, a prediction model is designed by using the meteorological factors and particulate matter concentration values commonly used in a number of studies, and the accuracy of the particulate matter AQI prediction is compared.

In this paper, we perform prediction of amount of electric power plant for complex of wind plant using multi-layer perceptron in order to calculate exact calculation of capacity of ESS to maximize profit through generation and to minimize generation cost of wind generation. We acquire wind speed, direction of wind and air density as variables to predict the amount of generation of wind power. Then, we merge and normalize there variables. To train model, we divide merged variables into data as train and test data with ratio of 70% versus 30%. Then we train model by using training data, and we alsouate the prediction performance of model by using test data. Finally, we present the result of prediction in amount of wind power.

In this study, the prediction method was reviewed to process a cylindrical plate forming using machine learning as a data-driven approach by roll bending equipment. The calculation of the forming variables was based on the analysis using the mechanical relationship between the material properties and the roll bending machine in the bending process. Then, by applying the finite element analysis method, the accuracy of the deformation prediction model was reviewed, and a large number data set was created to apply to machine learning using the finite element analysis model for deformation prediction. As a result of the application of the machine learning model, it was confirmed that the calculation is slightly higher than the linear regression method. Applicable results were confirmed through the machine learning method.

Nanofluids have recently triggered a substantial scientific interest as cooling media. However, their stability is challenging for successful engagement in industrial applications. Different factors, including temperature, nanoparticles and base fluids characteristics, pH, ultrasonic power and frequency, agitation time, and surfactant type and concentration, determine the nanofluid stability regime. Indeed, it is often too complicated and even impossible to accurately find the conditions resulting in a stabilized nanofluid. Furthermore, there are no empirical, semi-empirical, and even intelligent scenarios for anticipating the stability of nanofluids. Therefore, this study introduces a straightforward and reliable intelligent classifier for discriminating among the stability regimes of alumina-water nanofluids based on the Zeta potential margins. In this regard, various intelligent classifiers (i.e., deep learning and multilayer perceptron neural network, decision tree, GoogleNet, and multi-output least squares support vector regression) have been designed, and their classification accuracy was compared. This comparison approved that the multilayer perceptron neural network (MLPNN) with the SoftMax activation function trained by the Bayesian regularization algorithm is the best classifier for the considered task. This intelligent classifier accurately detects the stability regimes of more than 90% of 345 different nanofluid samples. The overall classification accuracy and misclassification percent of 90.1% and 9.9% have been achieved by this model. This research is the first try toward anticipting the stability of water-alumin nanofluids from some easily measured independent variables.
