This paper discusses Neural Networks as predictor for analyzing of transmission angle of slider-crank mechanism. There are different types of neural network algorithms obtained by using chain rules. The neural network is a feedforward neural network. On the other hand, the slider-crank mechanism is a modified mechanism by using an additional link between connecting rod and crank pin. Through extensive simulations, these neural network models are shown to be effective for prediction and analyzing of a modified slider-crank mechanism's transmission angle.

Correct prediction of emotion is essential for developing advanced health devices. For this purpose, neural network has been successfully used. However, interpretation of how a certain emotion is predicted through the emotion prediction neural network is very tough. When interpreting mechanism about how emotion is predicted by using the emotion prediction neural network can be developed, such mechanism can be effectively embedded into highly advanced health-care devices. In this sense, this study proposes a novel approach to interpreting how the emotion prediction neural network yields emotion. Our proposed mechanism is based on HRV (heart rate variability) measurements, which is based on calculating physiological data out of ECG (electrocardiogram) measurements. Experiment dataset with 23 qualified participants were used to obtain the seven HRV measurement such as Mean RR, SDNN, RMSSD, VLF, LF, HF, LF/HF. Then emotion prediction neural network was modelled by using the HRV dataset. By applying the proposed mechanism, a set of explicit mathematical functions could be derived, which are clearly and explicitly interpretable. The proposed mechanism was compared with conventional neural network to show validity.

In this paper, we introduce the hybrid data mining mechanism based in association rule and fuzzy neural networks (FNN). Most of data mining mechanisms are depended in the association rule extraction algorithm. However, the basic association rule-based data mining has not the learning ability. In addition, sequential patterns of association rules could not represent the complicate fuzzy logic. To resolve these problems, we suggest the hybrid mechanism using association rule-based data mining, and fuzzy neural networks. Our hybrid data mining mechanism was consisted of four phases. First, we used general association rule mining mechanism to develop the initial rule-base. Then, in the second phase, we used the fuzzy neural networks to learn the past historical patterns embedded in the database. Third, fuzzy rule extraction algorithm was used to extract the implicit knowledge from the FNN. Fourth, we combine the association knowledge base and fuzzy rules. Our proposed hybrid data mining mechanism can reflect both association rule-based logical inference and complicate fuzzy logic.

To translate in real time, a simultaneous translation system should determine when to stop reading source tokens and generate target tokens corresponding to a partial source sentence read up to that point. However, conventional attention-based neural machine translation (NMT) models cannot produce translations with adequate latency in online scenarios because they wait until a source sentence is completed to compute alignment between the source and target tokens. To address this issue, we propose a reinforced learning (RL)-based attention mechanism, the reinforced attention mechanism, which allows a neural translation model to jointly train the stopping criterion and a partial translation model. The proposed attention mechanism comprises two modules, one to ensure translation quality and the other to address latency. Different from previous RL-based simultaneous translation systems, which learn the stopping criterion from a fixed NMT model, the modules can be trained jointly with a novel reward function. In our experiments, the proposed model has better translation quality and comparable latency compared to previous models.

A neural predictive tracking system for the control of structure-unknown dynamic system is presented. The control system comprises a neural network modelling mechanism for the the forward and inverse dynamics of a plant to be controlled, a feedforward controller, feedback controller, and an error prediction mechanism. The feedforward controller, a neural network model of the inverse dynamics, generates feedforward control signal to the plant. The feedback control signal is produced by the error prediction mechanism. The error predictor adopts the neural network models of the forward and inverse dynamics. Simulation results are presented to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed scheme to predictive tracking control problems.

In this paper, we propose a speech emotion recognition method using a deep neural network based on the attention mechanism. The proposed method consists of a combination of CNN (Convolution Neural Networks), GRU (Gated Recurrent Unit), DNN (Deep Neural Networks) and attention mechanism. The spectrogram of the speech signal contains characteristic patterns according to the emotion. Therefore, we modeled characteristic patterns according to the emotion by applying the tuned Gabor filters as convolutional filter of typical CNN. In addition, we applied the attention mechanism with CNN and FC (Fully-Connected) layer to obtain the attention weight by considering context information of extracted features and used it for emotion recognition. To verify the proposed method, we conducted emotion recognition experiments on six emotions. The experimental results show that the proposed method achieves higher performance in speech emotion recognition than the conventional methods.

The spiking neural network operates in a different mechanism than the existing neural network. The existing neural network transfers the output value to the next neuron via an activation function that does not take into account the biological mechanism for the input value to the neuron that makes up the neural network. In addition, there have been good results using deep structures such as VGGNet, ResNet, SSD and YOLO. spiking neural networks, on the other hand, operate more like the biological mechanism of real neurons than the existing activation function, but studies of deep structures using spiking neurons have not been actively conducted compared to in-depth neural networks using conventional neurons. This paper proposes the method of loading an deep neural network model made from existing neurons into a conversion tool and converting it into a spiking deep neural network through the method of replacing an existing neuron with a spiking neuron.

This paper considers the problem of patterns recognition using the artificial neural network systems. The artificial neural network systems provide an effective tool for classifying patterns and/or characters by learning them in a certain repeated hashion. The mechanism of the learning process and the structure of neural network systems used are main concerns in the accurate and fast classification of the patterns which are slightly different each other. The neural network system employed in this study has three layers structure which is composed of input, intermidiate, and output layers. Our main concern is to develope an effective learning mechanism how to learn the patterns fastly and accurately. The experimental study performed shows that there exists an effective learning method to get higher recognition ratio in classifying the several different patterns by artificial neural network system constructed.

Conventional expert systems has been criticized due to its lack of capability to adapt to the changing decision-making environments. In literature, many methods have been proposed to make expert systems more environment-adaptive by incorporating fuzzy logic and neural networks. The objective of this paper is to propose a new approach to building a self-evolving expert system inference mechanism by integrating fuzzy neural network and fuzzy rule extraction technique. The main recipe of our proposed approach is to fuzzify the training data, train them by a fuzzy neural network, extract a set of fuzzy rules from the trained network, organize a knowledge base, and refine the fuzzy rules by applying a pruning algorithm when the decision-making environments are detected to be changed significantly. To prove the validity, we tested our proposed self-evolving expert systems inference mechanism by using the bankruptcy data, and compared its results with the conventional neural network. Non-parametric statistical analysis of the experimental results showed that our proposed approach is valid significantly.
