This paper presents a novel face recognition algorithm based on the deep convolution neural network and key point detection jointed local binary pattern methodology to enhance the accuracy of face recognition. We firstly propose the modified face key feature point location detection method to enhance the traditional localization algorithm to better pre-process the original face images. We put forward the grey information and the color information with combination of a composite model of local information. Then, we optimize the multi-layer network structure deep learning algorithm using the Fisher criterion as reference to adjust the network structure more accurately. Furthermore, we modify the local binary pattern texture description operator and combine it with the neural network to overcome drawbacks that deep neural network could not learn to face image and the local characteristics. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm obtains stronger robustness and feasibility compared with the other state-of-the-art algorithms. The proposed algorithm also provides the novel paradigm for the application of deep learning in the field of face recognition which sets the milestone for further research.

A new method to control a robot manipulator by neural networks is proposed. The controller is composed of both a PD controller and a neural network-based feedforward controller. MLP(multi-layer perceptron) neural network is used for the feedforward controller and trained by BP(back-propagation) learning rule. Error terms for BP learning rule are composed of the outputs of a PD controller and the acceleration errors of manipulator joints. We compare the proposed method with existing ones and contrast performances of them by simulation. Also, We discuss the real application of the proposed method in consideration of the learning time of the neural network and the time required for sensing the joint acceleration.

Graphics processing unit (GPU) is used for a faster artificial neural network. It is used to implement the matrix multiplication of a neural network to enhance the time performance of a text detection system. Preliminary results produced a 20-fold performance enhancement using an ATI RADEON 9700 PRO board. The parallelism of a GPU is fully utilized by accumulating a lot of input feature vectors and weight vectors, then converting the many inner-product operations into one matrix operation. Further research areas include benchmarking the performance with various hardware and GPU-aware learning algorithms. (c) 2004 Pattern Recognition Society. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

Optimal neuro-control algorithm is extended to the control of a multi-degree-of-freedom structure. An active mass driver(AMD) system on the top roof is used as an exciter. The control signals are made by a multi-layer perceptron(MLP) which is trained by minimizing a sub-optimal performance index. The performance index is a function of both the output responses and the control signals. Structure having nonlinear hysteretic behavior is also trained and controlled by using proposed control algorithm. In training neuro-controller, emulator neural network is not used. Instead, sensitivity-test data are used. Therefore, only one neural network is used for the control system. Both the time delay effect and the dynamics of hydraulic actuator are included in the simulation. Example shows that optimal neuro-control algorithm can be applicable to the multi-degree of freedom structures.

The objective of the proposed study is to produce a tool-condition monitoring (TCM) strategy that will lead to a more efficient and economical drilling tool usage. Drill-wear monitoring is an important attribute in the automatic cutting processes as it can help preventing damages of the tools and workpieces and optimizing the tool usage. This study presents the architectures of a multi-layer feed-forward neural network with back-propagation training algorithm for the monitoring of drill wear. The input features to the neural networks were extracted from the AE signals using the wavelet transform analysis. Training and testing were performed under a moderate range of cutting conditions in the dry drilling of steel plates. The results indicated that the extracted input features from AE signals to the supervised neural networks were effective for drill wear monitoring and the output of the neural networks could be utilized for the tool life management planning.

This paper considers reinforcement learning control with the self-organizing map. Reinforcement learning uses the observable states of objective system and signals from interaction of the system and the environments as input data. For fast learning in neural network training, it is necessary to reduce learning data. In this paper, we use the self-organizing map to parition the observable states. Partitioning states reduces the number of learning data which is used for training neural networks. And neural dynamic programming design method is used for the controller. For evaluating the designed reinforcement learning controller, an inverted pendulum of the cart system is simulated. The designed controller is composed of serial connection of self-organizing map and two Multi-layer Feed-Forward Neural Networks.

This study provides fragility-based assessment of seismic performance of reinforced concrete bridges. Seismic fragility curves were created using nonlinear analysis (NA) and artificial neural networks (ANNs). Nonlinear response history analyses were performed, in order to calculate the seismic performances of the bridges. To this end, 306 bridge-earthquake cases were considered. A multi-layered perceptron (MLP) neural network was implemented to predict the seismic performances of the selected bridges. The MLP neural networks considered herein consist of an input layer with four input vectors; two hidden layers and an output vector. In order to train ANNs, 70% of the numerical results were selected, and the remained 30% were employed for testing the reliability and validation of ANNs. Several structures of MLP neural networks were examined in order to obtain suitable neural networks. After achieving the most proper structure of neural network, it was used for generating new data. A total number of 600 new bridge-earthquake cases were generated based on neural simulation. Finally, probabilistic seismic safety analyses were conducted. Herein, fragility curves were developed using numerical results, neural predictions and the combination of numerical and neural data. Results of this study revealed that ANNs are suitable tools for predicting seismic performances of RC bridges. It was also shown that yield stresses of the reinforcements is one of the important sources of uncertainty in fragility analysis of RC bridges.

An adaptive hierarchical classifier(AHCL) for Korean character recognition using a neural net is designed. This classifier has two neural nets: USACL (Unsupervised Adaptive Classifier) and SACL (Supervised Adaptive Classifier). USACL has the input layer and the output layer. The input layer and the output layer are fully connected. The nodes in the output layer are generated by the unsupervised and nearest neighbor learning rule during learning. SACL has the input layer, the hidden layer and the output layer. The input layer and the hidden layer arefully connected, and the hidden layer and the output layer are partially connected. The nodes in the SACL are generated by the supervised and nearest neighbor learning rule during learning. USACL has pre-attentive effect, which perform partial search instead of full search during SACL classification to enhance processing speed. The input of USACL and SACL is a directional edge feature with a directional receptive field. In order to test the performance of the AHCL, various multi-font printed Hangul characters are used in learning and testing, and its processing its speed and and classification rate are compared with the conventional LVQ(Learning Vector Quantizer) which has the nearest neighbor learning rule.

항공기 엔진의 고장예지 및 건전성 관리(PHM)는 고장 또는 수명한계 도달 전에 잔존 유효 수명을 예측하는 것이다. PHM 기술 중 예측모델을 확립하는 방법은 물리 기반과 데이터 기반 방법이 있다. 물리기반 방법은 적은 데이터로 정확한 예측이 가능하지만 확립된 손상 물리 모델이 적어서 적용에 한계가 있다. 본 연구는 따라서 데이터 기반 방법을 적용하였으며, 수명 예측을 위해서 신경회로망 알고리즘 중 Multi-layer Perceptron을 이용하였다. 이를 위해 미국 항공우주국(NASA)에서 개발한 C-MAPSS 코드로 생성된 가상 데이터 세트를 이용하여 신경회로망을 학습하였다. 학습된 신경회로망 모델은 테스트 세트에 적용한 후 잔존 유효 수명의 신뢰구간을 예측하고 실제 값을 통해 정확도를 검증하였다. 또한 본 연구에서 제시된 방법을 기존 문헌의 것과도 비교하였고 그 결과 비교적 양호한 정확도를 확인할 수 있었다.
