The judgment of forged passports plays an important role in the immigration control system, for which the automatic and accurate processing is required because of the rapid increase of travelers. So, as the preprocessing phase for the judgment of forged passports, this paper proposed the novel method for the recognition of passport based on the fuzzy binarization and the fuzzy RBF neural network newly proposed. first, for the extraction of individual codes being recognized, the paper extracts code sequence blocks including individual codes by applying the Sobel masking, the horizontal smearing and the contour tracking algorithm in turn to the passport image, binarizes the extracted blocks by using the fuzzy binarization based on the membership function of trapezoid type, and, as the last step, recovers and extracts individual codes from the binarized areas by applying the CDM masking and the vertical smearing. Next, the paper proposed the enhanced fuzzy RBF neural network that adapts the enhanced fuzzy ART network to the middle layer and applied to the recognition of individual codes. The results of the experiment for performance evaluation on the real passport images showed that the proposed method in the paper has the improved performance in the recognition of passport.

The vibration signal can give an indication of the condition of rotating machinery, highlighting potential faults such as unbalance, misalignment and bearing defects. The features in the vibration signal provide an important source of information for the faults diagnosis of rotating machinery. When additional training data become available after the initial training is completed, the conventional neural networks (NNs) must be retrained by applying total data including additional training data. This paper proposes the fault diagnostics algorithm using the ART-Kohonen network which does not destroy the initial training and can adapt additional training data that is suitable for the classification of machine condition. The results of the experiments confirm that the proposed algorithm performs better than other NNs as the self-organizing feature maps (SOFM) , learning vector quantization (LYQ) and radial basis function (RBF) NNs with respect to classification quality. The classification success rate for the ART-Kohonen network was 94 o/o and for the SOFM, LYQ and RBF network were 93 %, 93 % and 89 % respectively.

This paper presents an application of power system fault diagnostic algorithm for the PEFP Proton Accelerator Research Center using neural network. Proposed fault diagnostic system is constructed by the radial basis function (RBF) neural network because it has the capabilities of the pattern classification and function approximation of any nonlinear function. Proposed system identifies faulted section in the power system based on information about the operation of protection devices such as relays and circuit breakers. In this paper, parameters of the RBF neural networks are tuned by the GA-TS algorithm, which has the global optimal solution searching capabilities. To show the validity of the proposed method, proposed algorithm has been tested with a practical power system in Proton Accelerator Research Center of PEFP.

In this paper, we proposed tracking detection methodology using information granulation-based fuzzy radial basis function neural networks (IG-FRBFNN). According to IEC 60112, tracking device is manufactured and utilized for experiment. We consider 12 features that can be used to decide whether tracking phenomenon happened or not. These features are considered by signal processing methods such as filtering, Fast Fourier Transform(FFT) and Wavelet. Such some effective features are used as the inputs of the IG-FRBFNN, the tracking phenomenon is confirmed by using the IG-FRBFNN. The learning of the premise and the consequent part of rules in the IG-FRBFNN is carried out by Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) clustering algorithm and weighted least squares method (WLSE), respectively. Also, Hierarchical Fair Competition-based Parallel Genetic Algorithm (HFC-PGA) is exploited to optimize the IG-FRBFNN. Effective features to be selected and the number of fuzzy rules, the order of polynomial of fuzzy rules, the fuzzification coefficient used in FCM are optimized by the HFC-PGA. Tracking inference engine is implemented by using the LabVIEW and loaded into embedded system. We show the superb performance and feasibility of the tracking detection system through some experiments.

Bankruptcy prediction has drawn a lot of research interests in previous literature, and recent studies have shown that machine learning techniques achieved better performance than traditional statistical ones. This paper employs a relatively new machine learning technique, support vector machines (SVMs). to bankruptcy prediction problem in an attempt to suggest a new model with better explanatory power and stability. To serve this purpose, we use grid search technique using 5-fold cross-validation to find out the optimal values of the parameters of kernel function of SVM. In addition, to evaluate the prediction accuracy of SVM. we compare its performance with multiple discriminant analysis (MDA), logistic regression analysis (Logit), and three-layer fully connected back-propagation neural networks (BPNs). The experiment results show that SVM outperforms the other methods.

The paper concerns Fuzzy C-Means clustering based Radial Basis Function neural networks (FCM-RBFNN) and the optimization of the network is carried out by means of Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO). FCM-RBFNN is the extended architecture of Radial Basis Function Neural Network(RBFNN). In the proposed network, the membership functions of the premise part of fuzzy rules do not assume any explicit functional forms such as Gaussian, ellipsoidal, triangular, etc., so its resulting fitness values directly rely on the computation of the relevant distance between data points by means of FCM. Also, as the consequent part of fuzzy rules extracted by the FCM - RBFNN model, the order of four types of polynomials can be considered such as constant, linear, quadratic and modified quadratic. Weighted Least Square Estimator(WLSE) are used to estimates the coefficients of polynomial. Since the performance of FCM-RBFNN is affected by some parameters of FCM-RBFNN such as a specific subset of input variables, fuzzification coefficient of FCM, the number of rules and the order of polynomials of consequent part of fuzzy rule, we need the structural as well as parametric optimization of the network. In this study, the PSO is exploited to carry out the structural as well as parametric optimization of FCM-RBFNN. Moreover The proposed model is demonstrated with the use of numerical example and gas furnace data set.

In order to develop smart grid communications infrastructure, a high level of interconnectivity and reliability among its nodes is required. Sensors, advanced metering devices, electrical appliances, and monitoring devices, just to mention a few, will be highly interconnected allowing for the seamless flow of data. Reliability and security in this flow of data between nodes is crucial due to the low latency and cyber-attacks resilience requirements of the Smart Grid. In particular, Artificial Intelligence techniques such as Fuzzy Logic, Bayesian Inference, Neural Networks, and other methods can be employed to enhance the security gaps in conventional IDSs. A distributed FPGA-based network with adaptive and cooperative capabilities can be used to study several security and communication aspects of the smart grid infrastructure both from the attackers and defensive point of view. In this paper, the vital issue of security in the smart grid is discussed, along with a possible approach to achieve this by employing FPGA based Radial Basis Function (RBF) network intrusion.

일반적으로 ECG(electrocardiogram)파형은 정상인의 경우에도 그 형태가 일정하지 않으며, 측정시간 및 측정인의 상태에 따라서도 파형이 변화하기 때문에 표준화된 ECG파형 검사로는 개인의 특성에 따른 정밀 진단이 어려웠다. 따라서 자동화된 개인별 맞춤형 진단을 위해서는 측정대상에 대한 사용자인식 기술이 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 세 가지 잡음제거법을 이용하여 파형의 잡음성분을 제거하고, ECG Limb Lead III 파형의 다양한 신호간격(interval) 특성치와 미분변화량을 통한 꼭짓점 분석 등을 통하여 파형으로부터 특정인의 특징을 추출한 후 신경회로망을 이용하여 생체인식을 수행하였다. 실험은 동일한 연령대인 7명의 성인남녀를 대상으로 하였고, 재현성을 평가하기 위해서 인위적인 변화(커피, 담배, 알코올 섭취 및 스트레스)후의 ECG파형을 측정, 특정인 인식률을 실험한 결과 실험에 이용된 제한된 변동 내에서 90.9%의 인식률을 보였다.
