In this study, neural network models have been used to predict the mechanical behaviors of mouse embryos. In addition, sensitivity analysis has been carried out to investigate the influence of the significance of input parameters on the mechanical behavior of mouse embryos. In order to reach these purposes two neural network models have been implemented. Experimental data earlier deduced-by [Flu¨ckiger, M. (2004). Cell Membrane Mechanical Modeling for Microrobotic Cell Manipulation. Diploma Thesis, ETHZ Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Zurich, WS03/04] –were collected to obtain training and test data for the neural network. The results of these investigations show that the correlation values of the test and training data sets are between0.9988 and 1.0000, which are in good agreement with the experimental observations.

Abstract In the current study we consider the problem of accuracy in heat rate estimations from artificial neural network models of heat exchangers used for refrigeration applications. The network configuration is of the feedforward type with a sigmoid activation function and a backpropagation algorithm. Limited experimental measurements from a manufacturer are used to show the capability of the neural network technique in modeling the heat transfer in these systems. Results from this exercise show that a well-trained network correlates the data with errors of the same order as the uncertainty of the measurements. It is also shown that the number and distribution of the training data are linked to the performance of the network when estimating the heat rates under different operating conditions, and that networks trained from few tests may give large errors. A methodology based on the cross-validation technique is presented to find regions where not enough data are available to construct a reliable neural network. The results from three tests show that the proposed methodology gives an upper bound of the estimated error in the heat rates.

This paper deals with the application of nonparametric system identification to the nonlinear maneuvering of ships using neural network method. The maneuvering equations contain linear as well as nonlinear terms, and one does not attempt to determine the parameters (or hydrodynamic derivatives) associated with nonlinear terms, rather all nonlinear terms are clubbed together to form one unknown time function per equation, which are sought to be represented by neural network coefficients. The time series used in training the network are obtained from simulated data of zigzag and spiral maneuvers. The neural network has one middle or hidden layer of neurons and the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm is used to obtain the network coefficients. Using the best choices for number of hidden layer neurons, length of training data, convergence tolerance, and so forth, the performances of the proposed neural network models have been investigated and conclusions drawn.

The development of hardware technology and information technology has promoted the development of image recognition technology. Today, image recognition technology has been applied to many national defense technologies; especially target image recognition technology is widely used in the field of air threat prevention. However, nowadays, the air target recognition technology has the disadvantage of high misjudgment rate. The main reason is that the sky is too large and the distance gap makes it difficult to distinguish the target image from other noise images. This paper takes the neural network as the classification tool, through image preprocessing and contour extraction, establishes the recognition model of the target image. The simulation results of 10 data sets show that the method used in this paper is more than 85% accurate, but the error rate is only 0.7%. The simulation results show that the model designed in this paper can achieve air target recognition very well.

The neural network is an approach of machine learning by training the connected nodes of a model to predict the results of specific problems. The prediction model is trained by using previously collected training data. In training neural network models, overfitting problems can occur from the excessively dependent training of data and the structural problems of the models. In this paper, we analyze the effect of DropConnect for controlling overfitting in neural networks. It is analyzed according to the DropConnect rates and the number of nodes in designing neural networks. The analysis results of this study help to understand the effect of DropConnect in neural networks. To design an effective neural network model, the DropConnect can be applied with appropriate parameters from the understanding of the effect of the DropConnect in neural network models.

Business is a diversified field with general areas of specialisation such as accounting, taxation, stock market, and other financial analysis. Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) have been widely used in applications such as bankruptcy prediction, predicting costs, forecasting revenue, forecasting share prices and exchange rates, processing documents and many more. This chapter introduces an Adaptive Higher Order Neural Network (HONN) model and applies the adaptive model in business applications such as simulating and forecasting share prices. This adaptive HONN model offers significant advantages over traditional Standard ANN models such as much reduced network size, faster training, as well as much improved simulation and forecasting errors, due to their ability to better approximate complex, non-smooth, often discontinuous training data sets. The generalisation ability of this HONN model is explored and discussed.

Spatial variability is a prominent feature of various geographic phenomena such as climatic zones, USDA plant hardiness zones, and terrestrial habitat types (e.g., forest, grasslands, wetlands, and deserts). However, current deep learning methods follow a spatial-one-size-fits-all (OSFA) approach to train single deep neural network models that do not account for spatial variability. Quantification of spatial variability can be challenging due to the influence of many geophysical factors. In preliminary work, we proposed a spatial variability aware neural network (SVANN-I, formerly called SVANN ) approach where weights are a function of location but the neural network architecture is location independent. In this work, we explore a more flexible SVANN-E approach where neural network architecture varies across geographic locations. In addition, we provide a taxonomy of SVANN types and a physics inspired interpretation model. Experiments with aerial imagery based wetland mapping show that SVANN-I outperforms OSFA and SVANN-E performs the best of all.

Purpose The fabulous results of convolution neural networks in image-related tasks attracted attention of text mining, sentiment analysis and other text analysis researchers. It is, however, difficult to find enough data for feeding such networks, optimize their parameters, and make the right design choices when constructing network architectures. The purpose of this paper is to present the creation steps of two big data sets of song emotions. The authors also explore usage of convolution and max-pooling neural layers on song lyrics, product and movie review text data sets. Three variants of a simple and flexible neural network architecture are also compared. Design/methodology/approach The intention was to spot any important patterns that can serve as guidelines for parameter optimization of similar models. The authors also wanted to identify architecture design choices which lead to high performing sentiment analysis models. To this end, the authors conducted a series of experiments with neural architectures of various configurations. Findings The results indicate that parallel convolutions of filter lengths up to 3 are usually enough for capturing relevant text features. Also, max-pooling region size should be adapted to the length of text documents for producing the best feature maps. Originality/value Top results the authors got are obtained with feature maps of lengths 6–18. An improvement on future neural network models for sentiment analysis could be generating sentiment polarity prediction of documents using aggregation of predictions on smaller excerpt of the entire text.

Increasing expectations of industrial system reliability require development of more effective and robust fault diagnosis methods. The paper presents a framework for quality improvement on the neural model applied for fault detection purposes. In particular, the proposed approach starts with an adaptation of the modified quasi-outer-bounding algorithm towards non-linear neural network models. Subsequently, its convergence is proven using quadratic boundedness paradigm. The obtained algorithm is then equipped with the sequential D-optimum experimental design mechanism allowing gradual reduction of the neural model uncertainty. Finally, an emerging robust fault detection framework on the basis of the neural network uncertainty description as the adaptive thresholds is proposed.
