In this thesis, we present a genetic DNU-control scheme for unknown nonlinear systems. Our methodis different from those using supervised loaming algorithms, such as the backpropagation (BP) algorithm, that needs training information In each step. The contributions of this thesis are the new approach to constructing neural network architecture and its trainin.

We consider the problem of constructing observers for nonlinear systems with unknown inputs. Connectionist networks, also called neural networks, have been broadly applied to solve many different problems since McCulloch and Pitts had shown mathematically their information processing ability in 1943. In this thesis, we present a genetic neuro-control scheme for nonlinear systems. Our method is different from those using supervised learning algorithms, such as the backpropagation (BP) algorithm, that needs training information in each step. The contributions of this thesis are the new approach to constructing neural network architecture and its training.

Smartphone addiction has become more serious than internet addiction since people can download and run numerous applications with smartphones even without internet connection. However, smartphone addiction is not sufficiently dealt with in current studies. The S-scale method developed by Korea National Information Society Agency involves so many questions that respondents are likely to avoid the diagnosis itself. Moreover, since S-scale is determined by the total score of responded items without taking into account of demographic variables, it is difficult to get an accurate result. Therefore, in this paper, we have extracted important factors from all data, which affect smartphone addiction, including demographic variables. Then we classified the selected items with a neural network. The result of a comparative analysis with backpropagation learning algorithm and multiclass support vector machine shows that learning rate is slightly higher in multiclass SVM. Since multiclass SVM suggested in this paper is highly adaptable to rapid changes of data, we expect that it will lead to a more accurate self-diagnosis of smartphone addiction.

Mineral admixtures have been widely used to produce concrete. Pozzolans have been utilized as partially replacement for Portland cement or blended cement in concrete based on the materials' properties and the concrete's desired effects. Several environmental problems associated with producing cement have led to partial replacement of cement with other pozzolans. Furnace slag and fly ash are two of the pozzolans which can be appropriately used as partial replacements for cement in concrete. However, replacing cement with these materials results in significant changes in the mechanical properties of concrete, more specifically, compressive strength. This paper aims to intelligently predict the compressive strength of concretes incorporating furnace slag and fly ash as partial replacements for cement. For this purpose, a database containing 1030 data sets with nine inputs (concrete mix design and age of concrete) and one output (the compressive strength) was collected. Instead of absolute values of inputs, their proportions were used. A hybrid artificial neural network-genetic algorithm (ANN-GA) was employed as a novel approach to conducting the study. The performance of the ANN-GA model is evaluated by another artificial neural network (ANN), which was developed and tuned via a conventional backpropagation (BP) algorithm. Results showed that not only an ANN-GA model can be developed and appropriately used for the compressive strength prediction of concrete but also it can lead to superior results in comparison with an ANN-BP model.

Current discriminating technique of rice variety is known to be not objective till this time because of depending on naked eye of well trained inspector. DNA finger print method based on genetic character of rice has been indicated inappropriate for on-site application, because the method need much labor and skilled expert. The purpose of this study was to develops the identification technique of polished rice varieties using CCD camera images. To minimize the noise of the captured image, thresholding and median filtering were carried out, and edge was extracted from the image data. Image data after pretreatment of normalize and FFT(fast fourier transform) were used for library model and feedforward backpropagation neural network model. Image processing technique using CCD camera could discriminate the variety of rice with high accuracy in case of quite different rice of shape, but the accuracy was reached at 85% in the similar shape of rice.

In this paper, we propose the speaker identification system that uses vowel that has speaker's characteristic. System is divided to speech feature extraction part and speaker identification part. Speech feature extraction part extracts speaker's feature. Voiced speech has the characteristic that divides speakers. For vowel extraction, formants are used in voiced speech through frequency analysis. Vowel-a that different formants is extracted in text. Pitch, formant, intensity, log area ratio, LP coefficients, cepstral coefficients are used by method to draw characteristic. The cpestral coefficients that show the best performance in speaker identification among several methods are used. Speaker identification part distinguishes speaker using Neural Network. 12 order cepstral coefficients are used learning input data. Neural Network's structure is MLP and learning algorithm is BP (Backpropagation). Hidden nodes and output nodes are incremented. The nodes in the incremental learning neural network are interconnected via weighted links and each node in a layer is generally connected to each node in the succeeding layer leaving the output node to provide output for the network. Though the vowel extract and incremental learning, the proposed system uses low learning data and reduces learning time and improves identification rate.

This Paper Propose the control chart Pattern to provide a more comprehensive scheme for detecting process shifts using individual observations in start-up process. In this paper, which uses the backpropagation algorithm two samples are fed into the trained neural network to provide outputs ranging from 0 to 1. The main advantage of using neural networks approach with a control chart is that the neural network has almost no delay in detecting small shift. This paper illustrates how neural networks can provide a useful method for optimizing parameter(connection weights) that affect process control. Simulation results show that the performance of the proposed control chart using the neural network (NNCC) is quite promising.

Recently, the size and location of the acquired container image while the container is loading and unloading in Harbors is not fixed. And it is difficult to get a good image for recognition because of the variation of external environment as those the size of container and where the yard-tractor stop is. In this paper, we estimate where the container ISO-code set is using Top-hat transform from realtime images and get an image to recognize container ISO-code using PAN/TILT/ZOOM camera. We extract the container ISO-code using Top-hat transform and Histogram projection. After binarization, we extract each character from complex background using labeling. We use BP(Backpropagation Network) to recognize extracted characters.
