This paper investigates the utilisation of feedforward and recurrent neural networks for dynamic modelling of a flexible plate structure. Neuro-modelling techniques are used for non-parametric identification of the flexible plate structure based on one-step-ahead prediction. A multi layer perceptron (MLP) and Elman neural networks are designed to characterise the dynamic behaviour of the flexible plate. Results of the modelling techniques are validated through a range of tests including input/output mapping, training and test validation, mean-squared error and correlation tests. Results are presented in both time and frequency domains. Comparative performance assessments of both neuro-modelling approaches in terms of mean-squared error and estimation of the resonance modes of the system are carried out. It is noted that both techniques have been able to detect the first five vibration modes of the system successfully. Investigations also signify the advantage of a recurrent Elman network over an MLP feedforward network in modelling the flexible plate structure.

This paper presents the performance of system identification for modeling the horizontal flexible plate system using artificial bee colony and recursive least square algorithms. Initially, the experimental rig of flexible plate was designed and fabricated with all edges clamped boundary condition at the horizontal position. Then, the instrumentation and data acquisition systems were integrated into the rig for acquiring the input-output vibration experimentally. The collected data in the experiment will be used later for modeling the dynamic system of horizontal flexible plate system using system identification. The effectiveness of the developed model will be validated using mean squared error, one step ahead prediction, correlation tests and pole zero diagram stability. The estimated of the developed models were found are acceptable and possible to be used as a platform of controller development for vibration suppression of the undesirable vibration in the flexible plate structure. It was found that the artificial bee colony algorithm has performed better in this study by achieving the lowest mean squared error, good correlation test and high stability in the pole zero diagram.

This study presents a real-time method for determining the thickness of each layer in multilayer thin films. Artificial neural networks (ANNs) were introduced to estimate thicknesses from a transmittance spectrum. After training via theoretical spectra which were generated by thin-film optics and modified by noise, ANNs were applied to estimate the thicknesses of four-layer nanoscale films which were TiO2, Ag, Ti, and TiO2 thin films assembled sequentially on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates. The results reveal that the mean squared error of the estimation is 2.6 nm2, and is accurate enough to monitor film growth in real time.

Classification has been considered as an important tool utilized for the extraction of useful information from healthcare dataset. It may be applied for recognition of disease over symptoms. This paper aims to compare and evaluate different approaches of neural networks classification algorithms for healthcare datasets. The algorithms considered here are Multilayer Perceptron, Radial Basis Function, and Voted Perceptron which are tested based on resulted classifiers accuracy, precision, mean absolute error and root mean squared error rates, and classifier training time. All the algorithms are applied for five multivariate healthcare datasets, Echocardiogram, SPECT Heart, Chronic Kidney Disease, Mammographic Mass, and EEG Eye State datasets. Among the three algorithms, this study concludes the best algorithm for the chosen datasets is Multilayer Perceptron. It achieves the highest for all performance parameters tested. It can produce high accuracy classifier model with low error rate, but suffer in training time especially of large dataset. Voted Perceptron performance is the lowest in all parameters tested. For further research, an investigation may be conducted to analyze whether the number of hidden layer in Multilayer Perceptron’s architecture has a significant impact on the training time.

Customer experience and resource management determine the degree to which transportation service providers can compete in today’s heavily saturated markets. The paper investigates and suggests a new methodology to optimize calculations for Estimated Time of Arrival (from now on ETA, meaning the time it will take for the driver to reach the designated location) based on the data provided by GG collected from rides made in 2018. GG is a transportation service providing company, and it currently uses The Open Source Routing Machine (OSRM) which exhibits significant errors in the prediction phase. This paper shows that implementing algorithms such as XGBoost, CatBoost, and Neural Networks for the said task will improve the accuracy of estimation. Paper discusses the benefits and drawbacks of each model and then considers the performance of the stacking algorithm that combines several models into one. Thus, using those techniques, final results showed that Mean Squared Error (MSE) was decreased by 54% compared to the current GG model.

Abstract An artificial neural network was used to build models caple of predicting and quantifying vodka adulteration with methanol and/or tap water. A voltammetric electronic tongue based on gold and copper microelectrodes was used, and 310 analyses were performed. Vodkas were adulterated with tap water (5 to 50% (v/v)), methanol (1 to 13% (v/v)), and with a fixed addition of 5% methanol and tap water varying from 5 to 50% (v/v). The classification model showed 99.5% precision, and it correctly predicted the type of adulterant in all samples. Regarding the regression model, the root mean squared error was 3.464% and 0.535% for the water and methanol addition, respectively, and the prediction of the adulterant content presented an R2 0.9511 for methanol and 0.9831 for water adulteration.

We present a deep-learning package named HiCNN2 to learn the mapping between low-resolution and high-resolution Hi-C (a technique for capturing genome-wide chromatin interactions) data, which can enhance the resolution of Hi-C interaction matrices. The HiCNN2 package includes three methods each with a different deep learning architecture: HiCNN2-1 is based on one single convolutional neural network (ConvNet); HiCNN2-2 consists of an ensemble of two different ConvNets; and HiCNN2-3 is an ensemble of three different ConvNets. Our evaluation results indicate that HiCNN2-enhanced high-resolution Hi-C data achieve smaller mean squared error and higher Pearson’s correlation coefficients with experimental high-resolution Hi-C data compared with existing methods HiCPlus and HiCNN. Moreover, all of the three HiCNN2 methods can recover more significant interactions detected by Fit-Hi-C compared to HiCPlus and HiCNN. Based on our evaluation results, we would recommend using HiCNN2-1 and HiCNN2-3 if recovering more significant interactions from Hi-C data is of interest, and HiCNN2-2 and HiCNN if the goal is to achieve higher reproducibility scores between the enhanced Hi-C matrix and the real high-resolution Hi-C matrix.

Thermal errors of CNC machines have significant effects on precision of a workpiece. One of the approaches to reduce these errors is modeling and on-line compensating them. In this study, thermal errors of an axis of the machine are modeled by means of artificial neural networks along with fuzzy logic. Models are created using experimental data. In neural networks modeling, MLP type which has 2 hidden layers is chosen and it is trained by backpropagation algorithm. Finally, the model is validated with the aid of calculating mean squared error and correlation coefficients between outputs of the model and a checking data set. On the other hand, an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system is utilized in fuzzy modeling which uses neural network to develop membership functions as fuzzifiers and defuzzifiers. This network is trained by hybrid algorithm. At the end, model validation is done by mean squared error like previous method. The results show that the errors of both modeling techniques are acceptable and models can predict thermal errors reliably.

The present paper provides a comparative evaluation of hybrid Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA) and Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) against conventional ANN, applied on real time intraday traffic volume forecasting. The main research objective was to assess the applicability and functionality of intraday traffic volume forecasting, based on toll station measurements. The proposed methodology was implemented and evaluated upon a custom developed forecasting software toolbox, based on the software Mathworks MatLab, by using real data from Iasmos-Greece toll station. Experimental results demonstrated a superior ex post forecasting accuracy of the proposed hybrid forecasting methodology against conventional ANN, when compared to performance of usual statistical criteria (Mean Absolute Error, Mean Squared Error, Root Mean Squared Error, Coefficient of Determination R2, Theil's inequality coefficient). The obtained results revealed that the hybrid model could advance forecasting accuracy of a conventional ANN model in intraday traffic volume forecasting, while embedding hybrid forecasting algorithm in an Intelligent Transport System could provide an advanced decision support module for transportation system maintenance, operation and management.

In this paper, previous studies featuring an artificial neural networks based prediction model have been reviewed. The main purpose of this review is to examine studies which use directional prediction accuracy (also known as hit ratio) or profitability of the model as a benchmark since other forecast error measures - namely mean absolute deviation (MAD), root mean squared error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE) and mean squared error (MSE) - have been criticized for the argument that they are not able to actually show how useful the prediction model is, in terms of financial gains (i.e. for practical usage). In order to meet the publication selection criteria mentioned above, a large number of publications have been examined and 25 of papers satisfying the criteria are selected for comparison. Classification of the eligible papers are summarized in a table format for future studies.

Nowadays, about 50% the world’s population is living in dry and semi dry regions and has utilized groundwater as a source of drinking water. Therefore, forecasting of pollutant content in these regions is vital. This study was conducted to compare the performance of artificial neural networks (ANNs) for prediction of As, Zn, and Pb content in groundwater resources of Toyserkan Plain. In this study, two types of artificial neural networks (ANNs), namely multi-layer perceptron (MLP) and Radial Basis Function (RBF) approaches, were examined using the observations of As, Zn, and Pb concentrations in groundwater resources of Toyserkan plain, Western Iran. Two statistical indicators, the coefficient of determination (R2) and root mean squared error (RMSE) were employed to evaluate the performances of various models. The results indicated that the best performance could be obtained by MLP, in terms of different statistical indicators during training and validation periods.
