In the paper, we proposed a face recognition method that uses GA-BP(Genetic Algorithm-Back propagation Network) that optimizes initial parameters such as bias values or weights. Each pixel in the picture is used for input of the neuralnetwork. The initial weights of neural network is consist of fixed-point real values and converted to bit string on purpose of using the individuals that arte expressed in the Genetic Algorithm. For the fitness value, we defined the value that shows the lowest error of neural network, which is evaluated using newly defined adaptive re-learning operator and built the optimized and most advanced neural network. Then we made experiments on the face recognition. In comparison with learning convergence speed, the proposed algorithm shows faster convergence speed than solo executed back propagation algorithm and provides better performance, about 2.9% in proposed method than solo executed back propagation algorithm.

With the improvement of standard of living, requirement for comfortable and quiet environment has been increased and, therefore, there has been a many researches for active noise reduction to overcome the limit of passive control method. In this study, active noise control is performed in a duct system using intelligent control technique which needs not decide the coefficients of high order filter and the mathematical modeling of a system. Back propagation algorithm is applied as an intelligent control technique and control system is organized to exclude the error microphone and high speed operational device which are indispensable for conventional active noise control techniques. Furthermore, learning is performed by organizing acoustic feedback model, and the effect of the proposed control technique is verified via computer simulation and experiment of active noise control in a duct system.

This paper is to evaluate the applicability of neural networks to the estimation of evapotranspiration. Two neural networks were developed to forecast daily evapotranspiration of the rice crop with back-propagation and counter-propagation algorithm. The neural network trained by back-propagation algorithm with delta learning rule is a three-layer network with input, hidden, and output layers. The other network with counter-propagation algorithm is a four-layer network with input, normalizing, competitive, and output layers. Training neural networks was conducted using daily actual evapotranspiration of rice crop and daily climatic data such as mean temperature, sunshine hours, solar radiation, relative humidity, and pan evaporation. During the training, neural network parameters were calibrated. The trained networks were applied to a set of field data not used in the training. The created response of the back-propagation network was in good agreement with desired values and showed better performances than the counter-propagation network did. Evaluating the neural network performance indicates that the back-propagation neural network may be applied to the estimation of evapotranspiration of the rice crop. This study does not provide with a conclusive statement as to the ability of a neural network to evapotranspiration estimating. More detailed study is required for better understanding and evaluating the behavior of neural networks.

In this paper, we improve an image classifier algorithm based on neural network learning. It consists of two steps. The first is input pattern generation and the second, the global neural network implementation using an improved back-propagation algorithm. The feature vector for pattern recognition consists of the codebook data obtained from self-organization feature map learning. It decreases the input neuron number as well as the computational cost. The global neural network algorithm which is used in classifier inserts a control part and an address memory part to the back-propagation algorithm to control weights and unit-offsets. The simulation results show that it does not fall into the local minima and can implement easily the large-scale neural network. And it decreases largely the learning time.

The increased usage of Magnetic Resonance Image (MRI) required the method for automatic segmentation of medical image that is more useful so as to diagnose the dissecitive information of a atient quickly and effectively through MR scans.The use of neural networks may give much hep to solving the complex problems concerned the matter. This paper proposes the new method for automatic segmentation of magnetic resonance (MR) images of the brain by using neural networks brained by back-propagation algorithm. The trained neural networks by the segmenting MR images of a patient produce an output that networks can segment MR images of the other patients automatically, too and show a clear image of the brain.

This paper proposes a new neuro-fuzzy system that is fast trained by evolution strategy and describes application results of the proposed system to nonlinear system identification to show its usefulness. As training methods of neuro-fuzzy systems, modified error back-propagation algorithms and genetic algorithms have been used so far. However, the former has some drawbacks such as long training time, falling to local optimum, and experimental selecting of learning rates and the latter has difficulty in precise searching solutions because genetic algorithms represents solutions as genotype individuals. The evolution strategy we used can do precise search because its individuals are represented as phenotype real values, it seldom falls into a local optimum, and its training speed is faster than error back-propagation algorithms. We apply our neuro-fuzzy systems to nonlinear system identification. It was found from experiments that training speed is fast and the training results were considerably good.

본 논문에서는 한글 단어를 발음 기호로 변환시키는 인공신경망의 설계와 이를 시뮬레이션한 결과에 대하여 논한다. 이 인공신경망은 multi-layer perceptron 구조를 가지며 error back-propagation 학습 알고리즘을 사용하였다. 이 인공신경망에 한글 발음 사전의 일부를 반복적으로 제시하여 학습시킨 결과, 학습한 단어에 대하여 최고 97%의 정확도로 변환 작업을 수행하였고 학습하지 않은 단어에 대해서는 91%의 정확도를 보였다. 이는 설계된 인공신경망이 발음 사전 내에 포괄적으로 내재되어 있는 발음규칙을 스스로 학습하였음을 나타낸다. 아울러 신경망의 학습 성취도와 입력 코드와의 관계도 연구하였는데, 한글단어를 발음기호로 변환하는 데에 있어서 compact 코드 보다 local 코드일 때 학습 성취도가 높은 것이 실험을 통해 밝혀졌다.

This paper proposes a Korean document. categorization algorithm using Back Propagation Neural Network(BPNN) with Singular Value Decomposition(SVD). BPNN makes a network through its learning process and classifies documents using the network. The main difficulty in the application of BPNN to document categorization is high dimensionality of the feature space of the input documents. SVD projects the original high dimensional vector into low dimensional vector, makes the important associative relationship between terms and constructs the semantic vector space. The categorization algorithm is tested and compared on HKIB-20000/HKIB-40075 Korean Text Categorization Test Collections. Experimental results show that BPNN algorithm with SVD achieves high effectiveness for Korean document categorization.

This paper presents the application of a neural network for prediction of the unconfined compressive strength from physical properties and schmidt hardness number on rock samples. To investigate the suitability of this approach, the results of analysis using a neural network are compared to predictions obtained by statistical relations. The data sets containing 55 rock sample records which are composed of sandstone and shale were assembled in Daegu area. They were used to learn the neural network model with the back-propagation teaming algorithm. The rock characteristics as the teaming input of the neural network are: schmidt hardness number, specific gravity, absorption, porosity, p-wave velocity and S-wave velocity, while the corresponding unconfined compressive strength value functions as the teaming output of the neural network. A data set containing 45 test results was used to train the networks with the back-propagation teaming algorithm. Another data set of 10 test results was used to validate the generalization and prediction capabilities of the neural network.
