We introduce a novel Visual Inertial Odometry (VIO) algorithm designed to improve the performance of thermal-inertial odometry. Thermal infrared image, though advantageous for feature extraction in low-light conditions, typically suffers from a high noise level and significant information loss during the 8-bit conversion. Our algorithm overcomes these limitations by approximating a 14-bit raw pixel histogram into a Gaussian mixture model. The conversion method effectively emphasizes image regions where texture for visual tracking is abundant while reduces unnecessary background information. We incorporate the robust learning-based feature extraction and matching methods, SuperPoint and SuperGlue, and zero velocity detection module to further reduce the uncertainty of visual odometry. Tested across various datasets, the proposed algorithm shows improved performance compared to other state-of-the-art VIO algorithms, paving the way for robust thermal-inertial odometry.

Internet of things (IoT) is commonly employed to detect different kinds of diseases in the health sector. Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune illness that occurs when the body's immune system attacks its own connective tissues and organs. Because of the complicated interconnections between illness trigger exposure levels across time, humans have trouble predicting SLE symptom severity levels. An effective automated machine learning model that intakes IoT data was created to forecast SLE symptoms to solve this issue. IoT has several advantages in the healthcare industry, including interoperability, information exchange, machine-to-machine networking, and data transmission. An SLE symptom-predicting machine learning model was designed by integrating the hybrid marine predator algorithm and atom search optimization with an artificial neural network. The network is trained by the Gene Expression Omnibus dataset as input, and the patients' data are used as input to predict symptoms. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed model's accuracy is higher than state-of-the-art prediction models at approximately 99.70%.

The hybrid neural networks have characteristics such as fast learning times, generality, and simplicity, and are mainly used to classify learning data and to model non-linear systems. The middle layer of a hybrid neural network clusters the learning vectors by grouping homogenous vectors in the same cluster. In the clustering procedure, the homogeneity between learning vectors is represented as the distance between the vectors. Therefore, if the distances between a learning vector and all vectors in a cluster are smaller than a given constant radius, the learning vector is added to the cluster. However, the usage of a constant radius in clustering is the primary source of errors and therefore decreases the recognition success rate. To improve the recognition success rate, we proposed the enhanced hybrid network that organizes the middle layer effectively by using the enhanced ART1 network adjusting the vigilance parameter dynamically according to the similarity between patterns. The results of experiments on a large number of calling card images showed that the proposed algorithm greatly improves the character extraction and recognition compared with conventional recognition algorithms.

In this paper, we propose a compact Convolutional Neural Network (CNN)-based tracker in conjunction with a particle filter architecture, in which the CNN model operates as an accurate candidates estimator, while the particle filter predicts the target motion dynamics, lowering the overall number of calculations and refines the resulting target bounding box. Experiments were conducted on the Online Object Tracking Benchmark (OTB) [34] dataset and comparison analysis in respect to other state-of-art has been performed based on accuracy and precision, indicating that the proposed algorithm outperforms all state-of-the-art trackers included in the OTB dataset, specifically, TLD [16], MIL [1], SCM [36] and ASLA [15]. Also, a comprehensive speed performance analysis showed average frames per second (FPS) among the top-10 trackers from the OTB dataset [34].

This study deals with the part-machine grouping (PMG) that considers realistic manufacturing factors, such as the machine duplication, operation sequences with multiple visits to the same machine, and production volumes of parts. Basically, this study is an extension of Won(2006) that has adopted fuzzy ART neural network to group parts and machines. The proposed fuzzy ART neural network algorithm is implemented with an ancillary procedure to enhance the block diagonal solution by rearranging the order of input presentation. Computational experiments applied to large-size PMG data sets with a psuedo-replicated clustering procedure show effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Mongolian historical and cultural monuments on settlement areas of stone inscriptions, stone images, rock-drawings, remains of cities, architecture are still telling us their stories. These monuments depict the understanding of the word, philosophical and artistic outlook, beliefs, religion, national art, language, culture and traditions of Mongols [1]. Nowadays computer science, especially computer vision is applying in the other science fields. The main problem is how to apply and which algorithm can detect and classify the objects correctly. In this paper, we propose a method to detect object from Mongolian nomadic environment images. This work proposes a method for object detection that is the combination of the binary operations in the edge detection results. We found out the best method and parameters of state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms. In experimental result, we evaluate our results with 10-fold cross validation and split 66% strategies.

In this paper we propose an input/output model based fault diagnosis method to detect and isolate single faults in the robot arm control system. The proposed algorithm is functionally composed of three main parts-parameter estimation, fault detection, and isolation, When a change in the system occurs, the errors between the system output and the estimated output cross a predetermined threshold, and once a fault in the system is detected, and in this zone the estimated parameters are transferred to the fault classifier by ART2(adaptive resonance theory 2) neural network for fault isolation. Since ART2 neural network is an unsupervised neural network fault classifier does not require the knowledge of all possible faults to isolate the faults occurred in the system. Simulations are carried out to evaluate the performance of the proposed ...

This paper estimates Adaptive Resonance Theory 1(ART1) as a vigilance parameter of pattern clustering algorithm. Inherent characteristics of the model are analyzed. In particular the vigilance parameter ${\rho}$ and its role in classification of patterns is examined. Our estimates show that the vigilance parameter as designed originally does not necessarily increase the number of categories with its value but can decrease also. This is against the claim of solving the stability-plasticity dilemma. However, we have proposed a modified vigilance parameter estimate criterion which takes into account the problem of subset and superset patterns and stably categorizes arbitrarily many input patterns in one list presentation when the vigilance parameter is closer to one.
