Machine tool state monitoring is a process that automatically detects the states of machine. In the manufacturing process, the efficiency of machining and the quality of the product are affected by the condition of the tool. Wear and broken tools can cause more serious problems in process performance and lower product quality. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a system to prevent tool wear and damage during the process so that the tool can be replaced in a timely manner. This paper proposes a method for diagnosing five tool states using a deep learning-based hierarchical convolutional neural network to change tools at the right time. The one-dimensional acoustic signal generated when the machine cuts the workpiece is converted into a frequency-based power spectral density two-dimensional image and use as an input for a convolutional neural network. The learning model diagnoses five tool states through three hierarchical steps. The proposed method showed high accuracy compared to the conventional method. In addition, it will be able to be utilized in a smart factory fault diagnosis system that can monitor various machine tools through real-time connecting.

The segmentation of range image is essential to recognize the three dimensional object. Generally, surface curvature is well-known feature for segmentation and classification of the fange image, but it is sensitive to noies. In this paper, we propose the structure of hierarchical neural network using surface curvature for segmentation of range images. The hierarchical structure of neural networks is robust to noise and the result of segmentaion is better than conventional optimization method of single level.

Automated production system is composed of many complicated techniques and it become a very difficult task to control, monitor and diagnose this compound system. Moreover, it is required to develop an effective diagnosing technique and reduce the diagnosing time while operating the system in parallel under many faults occurring concurrently. This study develops a Modular Artificial Neural Network(MANN) which can perform a diagnosing function of multiple faults with the following steps: 1) Modularizing a complicated system into subsystems. 2) Formulating a hierarchical structure by dividing the subsystem into many detailed elements. 3) Planting an artificial neural network into hierarchical module. The system developed is implemented on workstation platform with $X-Windows^{(r)}$ which provides multi-process, multi-tasking and IPC facilities for visualization of transaction, by applying the software written in $ANSI-C^{(r)}$ together with $MOTIF^{(r)}$ on the fault diagnosis of PI feedback controller reactor. It can be used as a simple stepping stone towards a perfect multiple diagnosing system covering with various industrial applications, and further provides an economical approach to prevent a disastrous failure of huge complicated systems.

In this paper, we propose the parallel, self-organizing, hierarchical neural netowrks as a handwritten digit recognition system. This system can absorb the various shape variations of handwritten digits by using the different methods of extracting the features in each stage neural network (SNN) of the PSHNN, and can reduce training time by using the single layer neural network as the SNN, and can obtain high rate of correct recognition by using the certainty area in all the output nodes individually. experiments have been performed with NIST database. In which we use 21, 315 digits (10, 625 digits for training and 10,663 digits for testing). The results show that the correct rate is 97.48% the error rate is 1.72% and the reject rate is 0.78%.

In this paper, we propose a method to automatically generate a configured song with melodies composed of front/middle/last parts by using hierarchical artificial neural networks in automatic composition. In the first layer, an artificial neural network is used to learn an existing song or a random melody and outputs a song after performing rhythm post-processing. In the second layer, the melody created by the artificial neural network in the first layer is learned by three artificial neural networks of front/middle/last parts in the second layer in order to make a configured song. In the artificial neural network of the second layer, we applied a method to generate repeatability using measure identity in order to make song with repeatability and after that the song is completed after rhythm, chord, tonality post-processing. It was confirmed from experiments that our proposed method produced configured songs well.

The person Re-identification is the most challenging part of computer vision due to the significant changes in human pose and background clutter with occlusions. The picture from non-overlapping cameras enhance the difficulty to distinguish some person from the other. To reach a better performance match, most methods use feature selection and distance metrics separately to get discriminative representations and proper distance to describe the similarity between person and kind of ignoring some significant features. This situation has encouraged us to consider a novel method to deal with this problem. In this paper, we proposed an enhanced recurrent neural network with three-tier hierarchical network for person re-identification. Specifically, the proposed recurrent neural network (RNN) model contain an iterative expectation maximum (EM) algorithm and three-tier Hierarchical network to jointly learn both the discriminative features and metrics distance. The iterative EM algorithm can fully use of the feature extraction ability of convolutional neural network (CNN) which is in series before the RNN. By unsupervised learning, the EM framework can change the labels of the patches and train larger datasets. Through the three-tier hierarchical network, the convolutional neural network, recurrent network and pooling layer can jointly be a feature extractor to better train the network. The experimental result shows that comparing with other researchers' approaches in this field, this method also can get a competitive accuracy. The influence of different component of this method will be analyzed and evaluated in the future research.

We have investigated the Intelligent Shift-map Module(ISM) to improve some problems in the conventional Automatic Transmission(AT) for automobiles. The typical AT lacks flexibility regarding the shift point because it does not consider the driver's habits and inclinations. Also it often is occurred phenomenon like kick-down. Therefore, we designed a decision module which considers the driving style of the individual driver. The driving style was determined by the inclination of the driver and the driving technique using actual automobile data. The Hierarchical Neural Network(HNN) was applied in generating an intelligent shift map with Multilayer Neural Network(MNN). It was found that the proposed ISM provided a suitable shift point and time because the necessary toque and velocity of the automobile was considered along with the driving style of each driver when designing the ISM.
