In this paper, an algorithm is presented to recognize road based on unpaved test courses image. The road images obtained by a video camera undergoes a pre-processing that includes filtering, gray level slicing, masking and identification of unpaved test courses. After this pre-processing, a part of image is grouped into 27 sub-windows and fed into a three-layer feed-forward neural network. The neural network is trained to indicate the road direction. The proposed algorithm has been tested with the images different from the training images, and demonstrated its efficacy for recognizing unpaved road. Based on the test results, it can be said that the algorithm successfully combines the traditional image processing and the neural network principles towards a simpler and more efficient driver warning or assistance system.

Heliostat, as a concentrator reflecting the incident solar energy to the receiver located at the tower, is the most important system in the tower-type solar thermal power plant, since it determines the efficiency and performance of solar thermal plower plant. Thus, a good sun tracking ability as well as its good optical property are required. In this paper, we propose a method to compensate the heliostat sun tracking error. We first model the sun tracking error, which could be measured using BCS (Beam Characterization System), by multilayered neural network. Then the extended Kalman filter was employed to train the neural network. Finally the model is used to compensate the sun tracking errors. Simulated result shows that the method proposed in this paper improve the heliostat sun tracking performance dramatically. It also shows that the training of neural network by the extended Kalman filter provides faster convergence property, more accurate estimation and higher measurement noise rejection ability compared with the other training methods like gradient descent method.

The moving object tracking in vision based observation using video uses difference method between GMM(Gaussian Mixture Model) based background and present image. In the case of racking object using binary image made by threshold, the object is merged not by object information but by Cast-Shadow. This paper proposed the method that eliminates Cast-Shadow using backpropagation Neural Network. The neural network is trained by abstracting feature value form training image of object range in 10-movies and Cast-Shadow range. The method eliminating Cast-Shadow is based on the method distinguishing shadow from binary image, its Performance is better(16.2%, 38.2%, 28.1%, 22.3%, 44.4%) than existing Cast-Shadow elimination algorithm(SNP, SP, DNM1, DNM2, CNCC).

This paper presents a generalized minimum-variance self-tuning controller with a PID structure using neural network which adapts to the changing parameters of the nonlinear system with nonminimum phase behavior and time delays. The neural network is used to estimate the controller parameters, and the control output is obtained through estimated controller parameter. In order to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, the computer simulation is done to adapt the nonlinear nonminimum phase system with time delays and changed system parameter after a constant time. The proposed method compared with direct adaptive controller using neural network.

Speech signal has the features of speakers. In this paper, we propose the speaker identification system which use the incremental learning based on neural network. Recorded speech signal through the Mic is passed the end detection and is divided voiced signal and unvoiced signal. The extracted 12 order cpestrum are used the input data for neural network. Incremental learning is the learning algorithm that the learned weights are remembered and only the new weights, that is created as adding new speaker, are trained. The architecture of neural network is extended with the number of speakers. So, this system can learn without the restricted number of speakers.

In this paper, we propose a system that extracts licence plate and recognizes numerals in the licence plate. The candidate area of licence plate is extracted using the improved IAFC(Integrated Adaptive Fuzzy Clustering) fuzzy neural network. And the morphological filters are used to reduce noise from the extracted licence plate. The extracted licence plate is standardized using Hough transform and geometric transform. Backpropagation neural network is used to recognize numerals that are separated using the projection technique.

This paper proposes a method of estimating the SOC(State of Charge) of a battery cell using a neural network algorithm. To this, we implement a battery SOC estimation simulator and derive input and output data for neural network learning through charge and discharge experiments at various temperatures. Finally, the performance of the battery SOC estimation is analyzed by comparing with the experimental value by Ah-counting using Matlab/Simulink program and confirmed that the error rate can be reduced to less than 3%.

In this study, this system makes use of the analog infrared rays sensor and converts the feature of fish outline when sensor is operating with CPU(80C196KC). Then, after signal processing, this feature is classified a special feature and a outline of fish by using the neural network, one of the artificial intelligence scheme. This neural network classifies fish pattern of very simple and short calculation. This has linear activation function and the error back propagation is used as a teaming algorithm. And the neural network is learned in off-line process. Because an adaptation period of neural network is too long when random initial weights are used, off-line teaming is induced to decrease the progress time.

Face is an information unique to each person such as Iris, fingerprints, etc,. Research on face recognition are in progress continuously from the past to the present. Through these research, various face recognition methods have appeared. Among these methods, there are face recognition algorithms using the face data composed in stereo. In this paper, Convolutional Neural Network with Stereo Images as input was used for face recognition. This method showed better performance than the result of stereo face recognition using PCA that is used frequently in face recognition.

The discrete wavelet transform is utilized as preprocessing of Neural Network(NN) to identify aging state of internal partial discharge in transformer. The discrete traveler transform is used to produce wavelet coefficients which are used for Classification. The statistical parameters (maximum of wavelet coefficients, average value, dispersion, skewness, kurtosis) using the wavelet coefficients are input into an back-propagation neural network. The neurons whose weights have obtained through Result of Cross-Validation. The Neural Network learning stops either when the error rate achieves an appropriate minimum or when the learning time overcomes a constant value. The networks, after training, can decide if the test signal is Early Aging State or Last Aging State or normal state.
