Recently, many researchers have been interested in biometric systems such as fingerprint, handwriting, key-stroke patterns and human iris. From the viewpoint of reliability and robustness, iris recognition is the most attractive biometric system. Moreover, the iris recognition system is a comfortable biometric system, since the video image of an eye can be taken at a distance. In this paper, we discuss human iris recognition, which is based on accurate iris localization, robust feature extraction, and Neural Network classification. The iris region is accurately localized in the eye image using a multiresolution active snake model. For the feature representation, the localized iris image is decomposed using wavelet transform based on dyadic Haar wavelet. Experimental results show the usefulness of wavelet transform in comparison to conventional Gabor transform. In addition, we present a new method for setting initial weight vectors in competitive learning. The proposed initialization method yields better accuracy than the conventional method.

최근 공정 및 계측기술이 발전함에 따라 밀링, 그라인딩, 브로칭 등 공정작업의 온라인 모니터링에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 온라인 모니터링 시스템은 공구의 마모나 파손 등과 같은 공정변화를 가급적 조기에 발견함으로써 설비를 보호하고 불필요한 비용의 발생을 억제하는 데 그 목적을 두고 있다 본 논문에서는 온라인 공정관측 데이터가 프로파일로 주어질 때 웨이블릿변환을 이용한 $T^2$-검정과 신경회로망의 모니터링 성능에 대해 고찰한다. 2006년 Axinte가 제시한 절삭력 데이터를 이용하여 수치실험을 수행한 결과, 웨이블릿기반 $T^2$는 양호한 검출력을 나타냈지만 그 검사특성은 자기상관에 매우 민감하게 반응하였다. 반면, 자기상관의 존재 하에서도 신경회로망은 $T^2$-검정에 비해 매우 안정적인 검사특성을 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 웨이블릿기반 $T^2$-검정에 노이즈분석을 위한 적응적인 요소가 필요하다는 점을 시사한다

Real time monitoring of exit burr formation is critical in manufacturing automation. In this paper, acoustic emission (AE) was used to detect the burr formation during drilling. By using wavelet transform (WT), AE data were compressed without unnecessary details. Then the transformed data were used as selected features (inputs) of a back-propagation artificial neural net (ANN). In order to validate the in process AE monitoring system, both WT-based ANN and cutting condition (cutting speed, feed, drill diameter, etc.) based ANN outputs were compared with experimental data.

In this paper, we present a indirect adaptive control method using a wavelet neural network (WNN) for the control of chaotic nonlinear systems without precise mathematical models. The proposed indirect adaptive control method includes the off-line identification and on-line control procedure for chaotic nonlinear systems. In the off-line identification procedure, the WNN based identification model identifies the chaotic nonlinear system by using the serial-parallel identification structure and is trained by the gradient-descent method. And, in the on-line control procedure, a WNN controller is designed by using the off-line identification model and is trained by the error back-propagation algorithm. Finally, the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed control method is demonstrated with applications to the chaotic nonlinear systems.

In this paper, we design a terminal sliding mode controller based on self-recurrent wavelet neural network (SRWNN) for the second-order nonlinear systems with model uncertainties. The terminal sliding mode control (TSMC) method can drive the tracking errors to zero within finite time in comparison with the classical sliding mode control (CSMC) method. In addition, the TSMC method has advantages such as the improved performance, robustness, reliability and precision. We employ the SRWNN to approximate model uncertainties. The weights of SRWNN are trained by adaptation laws induced from Lyapunov stability theorem. Finally, we carry out simulations for Duffing system and the wing rock phenomena to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.

Generally, biped walking is difficult to control because it is a nonlinear system with various uncertainties. In this paper, we design a robust control system based on sliding-mode control (SMC) of 5-link biped robot using the wavelet neural network(WNN), in order to improve the efficiency of position tracking performance of biped locomotion. In our control system, the WNN is utilized to estimate uncertain and nonlinear system parameters, where the weights of WNN are trained by adaptive laws that are induced from the Lyapunov stability theorem. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed control system is verified by computer simulations.

The network traffic prediction of a smart substation is key in strengthening its system security protection. To improve the performance of its traffic prediction, in this paper, we propose an improved gravitational search algorithm (IGSA), then introduce the IGSA into a wavelet neural network (WNN), iteratively optimize the initial connection weighting, scalability factor, and shift factor, and establish a smart substation network traffic prediction model based on the IGSA-WNN. A comparative analysis of the experimental results shows that the performance of the IGSA-WNN-based prediction model further improves the convergence velocity and prediction accuracy, and that the proposed model solves the deficiency issues of the original WNN, such as slow convergence velocity and ease of falling into a locally optimal solution; thus, it is a better smart substation network traffic prediction model.

For effective mobility control of unmanned ground vehicles in outdoor off-road environments, terrain cover classification technology using passive sensors is vital. This paper presents a novel method far terrain classification based on color and texture information of off-road images. It uses a neural network classifier and wavelet features. We exploit the wavelet mean and energy features extracted from multi-channel wavelet transformed images and also utilize the terrain class spatial coordinates of images to include additional features. By comparing the classification performance according to applied features, the experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has a promising result and potential possibilities for autonomous navigation.

In the present paper a new Neuro-Wavelet control algorithm is proposed based on a cost function to actively control the vibrations of structures under earthquake loads. A wavelet neural network (WNN) was developed to train the control algorithm. This algorithm is designed to control multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) structures which consider the geometric and material non-linearity, structural irregularity, and the incident direction of an earthquake load. The training process of the algorithm was performed by using the El-Centro 1940 earthquake record. A numerical model of a three dimensional (3D) three story building was used to accredit the control algorithm under three different seismic loads. Displacement responses and hysteretic behavior of the structure before and after the application of the controller showed that the proposed strategy can be applied effectively to suppress the structural vibrations.

Detecting the features of significant patterns from their own historical data is so much crucial to good performance specially in time-series forecasting. Recently, a new data filtering method (or multi-scale decomposition) such as wavelet analysis is considered more useful for handling the time-series that contain strong quasi-cyclical components than other methods. The reason is that wavelet analysis theoretically makes much better local information according to different time intervals from the filtered data. Wavelets can process information effectively at different scales. This implies inherent support for multiresolution analysis, which correlates with time series that exhibit self-similar behavior across different time scales. The specific local properties of wavelets can for example be particularly useful to describe signals with sharp spiky, discontinuous or fractal structure in financial markets based on chaos theory and also allows the removal of noise-dependent high frequencies, while conserving the signal bearing high frequency terms of the signal. To data, the existing studies related to wavelet analysis are increasingly being applied to many different fields. In this study, we focus on several wavelet thresholding criteria or techniques to support multi-signal decomposition methods for financial time series forecasting and apply to forecast Korean Won / U.S. Dollar currency market as a case study. One of the most important problems that has to be solved with the application of the filtering is the correct choice of the filter types and the filter parameters. If the threshold is too small or too large then the wavelet shrinkage estimator will tend to overfit or underfit the data. It is often selected arbitrarily or by adopting a certain theoretical or statistical criteria. Recently, new and versatile techniques have been introduced related to that problem. Our study is to analyze thresholding or filtering methods based on wavelet analysis that use multi-signal decomposition algorithms within the neural network architectures specially in complex financial markets. Secondly, through the comparison with different filtering techniques results we introduce the present different filtering criteria of wavelet analysis to support the neural network learning optimization and analyze the critical issues related to the optimal filter design problems in wavelet analysis. That is, those issues include finding the optimal filter parameter to extract significant input features for the forecasting model. Finally, from existing theory or experimental viewpoint concerning the criteria of wavelets thresholding parameters we propose the design of the optimal wavelet for representing a given signal useful in forecasting models, specially a well known neural network models.
