The temperature distributions of concrete structures strongly depend on the value of thermal conductivity of concrete. However, the thermal conductivity of concrete varies according to the composition of the constituents and the temperature and moisture conditions of concrete, which cause difficulty in accurately predicting the thermal conductivity value in concrete. For this reason, in this study, back-propagation neural network models on the basis of experimental values carried out by previous researchers have been utilized to effectively account for the influence of these variables. The neural networks were trained by 124 data sets with eleven parameters: nine concrete composition parameters (the ratio of water-cement, the percentage of fine and coarse aggregate, and the unit weight of water, cement, fine aggregate, coarse aggregate, fly ash and silica fume) and two concrete state parameters (the temperature and water content of concrete). Finally, the trained neural network models were evaluated by applying to other 28 measured values not included in the training of the neural networks. The result indicated that the proposed method using a back-propagation neural algorithm was effective at predicting the thermal conductivity of concrete.

We present a hybrid self-tuning method of fuzzy inference systems with hyper elliptic Gaussian membership functions using genetic algorithm(GA) and back-propagation algorithm. The proposed self-tuning method has two phases : one is the coarse tuning process based on GA and the other is the fine tuning process based on back-propagation. But the parameters which is obtained by a GA are near optimal solutions. In order to solve the problem in GA applications, it uses a back-propagation algorithm, which is one of learning algorithms in neural networks, to finely tune the parameters obtained by a GA. We provide Box-Jenkins time series to evaluate the advantage and effectiveness of the proposed approach and compare with the conventional method.

Artificial neural networks (ANN) have been successfully used for classifying remotely sensed imagery. However, ANN still is not the preferable choice for classification over the conventional classification methodology such as the maximum likelihood classifier commonly used in the industry production environment. This can be attributed to the ANN characteristic built-in stochastic process that creates difficulties in dealing with unequally represented training classes, and its training performance speed. In this paper we examined some practical aspects of training classes when using a back propagation neural network model for remotely sensed imagery. During the classification process of remotely sensed imagery, representative training patterns for each class are collected by polygons or by using a region-growing methodology over the imagery. The number of collected training patterns for each class may vary from several pixels to thousands. This unequally populated training data may cause the significant problems some neural network empirical models such as back-propagation have experienced. We investigate the effects of training over- or under- represented training patterns in classes and propose the pattern repopulation algorithm, and an adaptive alpha adjustment (AAA) algorithm to handle unequally represented classes. We also show the performance improvement when input patterns are presented in random fashion during the back-propagation training.

풍력발전시스템은 정격풍속미만에서는 토크를 제어하여 바람의 에너지를 최대로 하고 정격풍속이상에서는 피치를 제어하여 발전량을 정격으로 유지한다. 본 논문에서는 풍력발전시스템의 피치제어를 신경망을 이용하여 제어하는 방안을 제시한다. 피치제어의 목적은 정격풍속 이상에서 발전기의 회전속도를 일정하게 제어하여, 결과적으로 발전기의 출력을 정격전력으로 유지한다. 이 논문에서는 신경망 피치제어기의 성능을 향상시키기 위하여 발전기의 정격회전속도와 현재 회전속도 차이를 풍속과 함께 신경망의 입력으로 사용하는 방법을 제안하였다. 신경망의 훈련 알고리즘은 오류역전파(error back-propagation) 방법이 사용되었고, Matlab/Simulink를 사용하여 제어가 원활하게 되는 것을 확인하였다.

본 연구는 칼라 이미지에서 인물의 얼굴 영역을 검출하는 개선된 색상 기반 방식을 제안한다. 제안 방법은 RGB, $YC_bC_r$, YIQ의 세 가지 색상 모델을 조합, 각각 휘도와 색도 성분 조합 히스토그램을 구축하고 구축된 색상 조합 히스토그램을 역전파방식의 신경망에 입력한 후 학습단계의 반본 과정에 Levenberg-Marquadt 알고리즘을 적용한다. 제안 방법은 신경망 학습과정에 Levenberg-Marquadt 알고리즘을 적용하여 얼굴 검출에 가장 많이 사용되는 방법 중 하나인 역전파 신경망이 지역 최소값에 봉착하는 문제점을 해결함으로써 검출 오류율을 낮추는데 기여한다. 또한 색상 조합 히스토그램을 사용한 새로운 색상 조합 기반의 얼굴 영역 검출 방법은 빛의 영향에 강건하도록 휘도 성분을 분리하고 색도 성분을 강조하여 단일 색상 히스토그램보다 신경망에 더 신뢰성 있는 값을 입력함으로써 단일 색상 공간을 사용했을 때보다 높은 얼굴 검출율을 보인다. 실험 결과는 제안 방식이 얼굴 영역 검출 개선에 효과적이며 빛의 변화에 강건함을 보여준다.

This paper proposed trajectory tracking control based on genetic algorithm. Trajectory tracking control scheme are real coding genetic algorithm(RCGA) and back-propagation algorithm(BPA). Control scheme ability experience proposed simulation. Stable tracking control problem of mobile robots have been studied in recent years. These studies have guaranteed stability of controller, but the performance of transient state has not been guaranteed. In some situations, constant gain controller shows overshoots and oscillations. So we introduce better control scheme using real coding genetic algorithm and neural network. Using RCGA, we can find proper gains in several situations and these gains are generalized by neural network. The generalization power of neural network will give proper gain in untrained situation. Performance of proposed controller will verity numerical simulations and the results show better performance than constant gain controller.

The Air Quality Sensor(AQS), located near the fresh air inlet, serves to reduce the amount of pollution entering the vehicle cabin through the HVAC(heating, ventilating, and air conditioning) system by sending a signal to close the fresh air inlet door/ventilation flap when the vehicle enters a high pollution area. One chip sensor module which include above two sensing elements, humidity sensor and bad odor sensor was developed for AQS (air quality sensor) in automobile. With this sensor module, PIC microcontroller was designed with back propagation neural network to reduce detecting error when the motor vehicles pass through the dense fog area. The signal from neural network was modified to control the inlet of automobile and display the result or alarm the situation. One chip microcontroller, Atmega128L (ATmega Ltd., USA) was used. For the control and display. And our developed system can intelligently detect the bad odor when the motor vehicles pass through the polluted air zone such as cattle farm.

This paper presents a newly developed speed sensorless drive using Neural Network algorithm. Neural Network algorithm can be divided into three categories. In the first one, a Back Propagation-based NN algorithm is well-known to gradient descent method. In the second scheme, a Extended Kalman Filter-based NN algorithm has just the time varying learning rate. In the last scheme, a Recursive Least Square-based NN algorithm is faster and more stable than the classical back-propagation algorithm for training multilayer perceptrons. The number of iterations required to converge and the mean-squared error between the desired and actual outputs is compared with respect to each method. The theoretical analysis and experimental results are discussed.
