The initial fuzzy partitions in fuzzy rule-based classification systems are determined by considering the domain region of each attribute with the given data, and the optimal classification boundaries within the fuzzy partitions can be discovered by tuning their parameters using various learning processes such as neural network, genetic algorithm, and so on. In this paper, we propose a selection method for fuzzy partition based on statistical information to maximize the performance of pattern classification without learning processes where statistical information is used to extract the uncertainty regions (i.e., the regions which the classification boundaries in pattern classification problems are determined) in each input attribute from the numerical data. Moreover the methods for extracting the candidate rules which are associated with the partition intervals generated by statistical information and for minimizing the coupling problem between the candidate rules are additionally discussed. In order to show the effectiveness of the proposed method, we compared the classification accuracy of the proposed with those of conventional methods on the IRIS and New Thyroid Cancer data. From experimental results, we can confirm the fact that the proposed method only considering statistical information of the numerical patterns provides equal to or better classification accuracy than that of the conventional methods.

Visual Cortex Stimulator is among artificial retina prosthesis for blind man, is the method that stimulate the brain cell directly without processing the information from retina to visual cortex. In this paper, we propose image construction and recognition model that is similar to human visual processing by recognizing the feature data with orientation information, that is, the characteristics of visual cortex. Back propagation algorithm based on Delta-bar delta is used to recognize after extracting image feature by Kirsh edge detector. Various numerical patterns are used to analyze the performance of proposed method. In experiment, the proposed recognition model to extract image characteristics with the orientation of information from retinal cells to visual cortex makes a little difference in a recognition rate but shows that it is not sensitive in a variety of learning rates similar to human vision system.

Traditional demand forecasting methods are difficult to meet the needs of companies due to rapid changes in the market and the diversification of individual consumer needs. In a diversified production environment, the right demand forecast is an important factor for smooth yield management. Many of the existing predictive models commonly used in industry today are limited in function by little. The proposed model is designed to overcome these limitations, taking into account the part where each model performs better individually. In this paper, variables are extracted through Gray Relational analysis suitable for dynamic process analysis, and statistically predicted data is generated that includes characteristics of historical demand data produced through ARIMA forecasts. In combination with the LSTM model, demand forecasts can then be calculated by reflecting the many factors that affect demand forecast through an architecture that is structured to avoid the long-term dependency problems that the neural network model has.

특정 지역에 집중적으로 비가 내리는 현상인 국지성호우가 빈번히 발생함에 따라 하천 주변 사회기반시설의 침수 위험성이 증가하고 있다. 침수 위험성 판단 여부는 주로 수위정보를 이용하며 수위 예측은 대부분 수치모형을 이용한다. 본 연구에서는 빅데이터 기반의 RNN(Recurrent Neural Networks)기법 알고리즘을 활용하여 수위를 예측하였다. 연구대상지는 조위의 영향을 많이 받는 한강 전역을 대상으로 하였다. 2008년~2018년(10개년)의 실제 침수 피해 실적을 조사한 결과 잠수교, 한강대교, 청담대교 등에서 침수 피해 발생률이 높게 나타났고 SNS(Social Network Services)와 같은 비정형화 자료에서는 청담대교가 가장 많이 태그(Tag)되어 청담대교를 연구범위로 설정하였다. 본 연구에서는 Python에서 제공하는 Tensor flow Library를 이용하여 수위예측 알고리즘을 적용하였다. 데이터는 정형화 데이터와 비정형 데이터를 사용하였으며 정형화 데이터는 한강홍수 통제소나 기상청에서 제공하는 최근 10년간의 (2008~2018) 수위 및 강우량 자료를 수집하였다. 비정형화 데이터는 SNS를 이용하여 민간 정보를 수집하여 정형화된 자료와 함께 전체자료를 구축하였다. 민감도 분석을 통하여 모델의 은닉층(5), 학습률(0.02) 및 반복횟수(100)의 최적값을 설정하였고, 24시간 동안의 데이터를 이용하여 3시간 후의 수위를 예측하였다. 2008년~ 2017년 까지의 데이터는 학습 데이터로 사용하였으며 2018년의 수위를 예측 및 평가하였다. 2018년의 관측수위 자료와 비교한 결과 90% 이상의 데이터가 10% 이내의 오차를 나타내었으며, 첨두수위도 비교적 정확하게 예측되는 것을 확인하였다. 향후 수위와 강우량뿐만 아니라 다양한 인자들도 고려한다면 보다 신속하고 정확한 예측 정보를 얻을 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In order to diagnose and prevent Alzheimer's Disease (AD), it is becoming increasingly important to develop a CAD(Computer-aided Diagnosis) system for AD diagnosis, which provides effective treatment for patients by analyzing 3D MRI images. It is essential to apply powerful deep learning algorithms in order to automatically classify stages of Alzheimer's Disease and to develop a Alzheimer's Disease support diagnosis system that has the function of detecting hippocampus and CSF(Cerebrospinal fluid) which are important biomarkers in diagnosis of Alzheimer's Disease. In this paper, for AD diagnosis, we classify a given MRI data into three categories of AD, mild cognitive impairment, and normal control according by applying 3D brain MRI image to the Faster R-CNN model and detect hippocampus and CSF in MRI image. To do this, we use the 2D MRI slice images extracted from the 3D MRI data of the Faster R-CNN, and perform the widely used majority voting algorithm on the resulting bounding box labels for classification. To verify the proposed method, we used the public ADNI data set, which is the standard brain MRI database. Experimental results show that the proposed method achieves impressive classification performance compared with other state-of-the-art methods.

Purpose: This study aimed to propose a fully automatic landmark identification model based on a deep learning algorithm using real clinical data and to verify its accuracy considering inter-examiner variability. Materials and Methods: In total, 950 lateral cephalometric images from Yonsei Dental Hospital were used. Two calibrated examiners manually identified the 13 most important landmarks to set as references. The proposed deep learning model has a 2-step structure-a region of interest machine and a detection machine-each consisting of 8 convolution layers, 5 pooling layers, and 2 fully connected layers. The distance errors of detection between 2 examiners were used as a clinically acceptable range for performance evaluation. Results: The 13 landmarks were automatically detected using the proposed model. Inter-examiner agreement for all landmarks indicated excellent reliability based on the 95% confidence interval. The average clinically acceptable range for all 13 landmarks was 1.24 mm. The mean radial error between the reference values assigned by 1 expert and the proposed model was 1.84 mm, exhibiting a successful detection rate of 36.1%. The A-point, the incisal tip of the maxillary and mandibular incisors, and ANS showed lower mean radial error than the calibrated expert variability. Conclusion: This experiment demonstrated that the proposed deep learning model can perform fully automatic identification of cephalometric landmarks and achieve better results than examiners for some landmarks. It is meaningful to consider between-examiner variability for clinical applicability when evaluating the performance of deep learning methods in cephalometric landmark identification.

In this study, we modified CT images of femoral head in consideration of anatomically meaningful structure, proposing the method to augment the training data of convolution Neural network for segmentation of femur mesh model. First, the femur mesh model is obtained from the CT image. Then divide the mesh model into meaningful parts by using cluster analysis on geometric characteristic of mesh surface. Finally, transform the segments by using an appropriate mesh deformation algorithm, then create new CT images by warping CT images accordingly. Deep learning models using the data enhancement methods of this study show better image division performance compared to data augmentation methods which have been commonly used, such as geometric conversion or color conversion.

In this study, before system development for the elimination of foreign fish species, we propose an algorithm to classify fish species by training fish images with CNN. The raw data for CNN learning were directly captured images for each species, Dataset 1 increases the number of images to improve the classification of fish species and Dataset 2 realizes images close to natural environment are constructed and used as training and test data. The classification performance of four CNNs are over 99.97% for dataset 1 and 99.5% for dataset 2, in particular, we confirm that the learned CNN using Data Set 2 has satisfactory performance for fish images similar to the natural environment. And among four CNNs, AlexNet achieves satisfactory performance, and this has also the shortest execution time and training time, we confirm that it is the most suitable structure to develop the system for the elimination of foreign fish species.

With the proliferation of artificial intelligence technology, it is becoming important to obtain, store, and utilize scientific data in research and science sectors. A number of methods for extracting meaningful objects such as graphs and tables from research articles have been proposed to eventually obtain scientific data. Existing extraction methods using heuristic approaches are hardly applicable to electronic documents having heterogeneous manuscript formats because they are designed to work properly for some targeted manuscripts. This paper proposes a prototype of an object extraction system which exploits a recent deep-learning technology so as to overcome the inflexibility of the heuristic approaches. We implemented our trained model, based on the Faster R-CNN algorithm, using the Google TensorFlow Object Detection API and also composed an annotated data set from 100 research articles for training and evaluation. Finally, a performance evaluation shows that the proposed system outperforms a comparator adopting heuristic approaches by 5.2%.

Wind power tower has been used to augment the performance of VAWT (Vertical Axis Wind Turbine). However, inappropriately designed wind power tower could reduce the performance of VAWT. Hence, an optimization study was conducted on a wind power tower. Six design variables were selected, such as the outer radius and the inner radius of the guide wall, the adoption of the splitter, the inner radius of the splitter, the number of the guide wall and the circumferential angle. For the objective function, the periodic averaged torque obtained at the VAWT was selected. In the optimization, Design of Experiment (DOE), Genetic Algorithm (GA), and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) have been applied in order to avoid a localized optimized result. The ANN has been continuously improved after finishing the optimization process at each generation. The performance of the VAWT was improved more than twice when it operated within the optimized wind power tower compared to that obtained at a standalone.
