  • In this study, we propose a robust face recognition system to pose variations based on automatic pose estimation. Radial basis function neural network is applied as one of the functional components of the overall face recognition system. The proposed system consists of preprocessing and recognition modules to provide a solution to pose variation and high-dimensional pattern recognition problems. In the preprocessing part, principal component analysis (PCA) and 2-dimensional 2-directional PCA ($(2D)^2$ PCA) are applied. These functional modules are useful in reducing dimensionality of the feature space. The proposed RBFNNs architecture consists of three functional modules such as condition, conclusion and inference phase realized in terms of fuzzy "if-then" rules. In the condition phase of fuzzy rules, the input space is partitioned with the use of fuzzy clustering realized by the Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) algorithm. In conclusion phase of rules, the connections (weights) are realized through four types of polynomials such as constant, linear, quadratic and modified quadratic. The coefficients of the RBFNNs model are obtained by fuzzy inference method constituting the inference phase of fuzzy rules. The essential design parameters (such as the number of nodes, and fuzzification coefficient) of the networks are optimized with the aid of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). Experimental results completed on standard face database -Honda/UCSD, Cambridge Head pose, and IC&CI databases demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of face recognition system compared with other studies.

  • Background: The causal networks among genes that are commonly expressed in osteoblasts and during bone metastasis (BM) of breast cancer (BC) are not well understood. Here, we developed a machine learning method to obtain a plausible causal network of genes that are commonly expressed during BM and in osteoblasts in BC. Methods: We selected BC genes that are commonly expressed during BM and in osteoblasts from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. Bayesian Network Inference with Java Objects (Banjo) was used to obtain the Bayesian network. Genes registered as BC related genes were included as candidate genes in the implementation of Banjo. Next, we obtained the Bayesian structure and assessed the prediction rate for BM, conditional independence among nodes, and causality among nodes. Furthermore, we reported the maximum relative risks (RRs) of combined gene expression of the genes in the model. Results: We mechanistically identified 33 significantly related and plausibly involved genes in the development of BC BM. Further model evaluations showed that 16 genes were enough for a model to be statistically significant in terms of maximum likelihood of the causal Bayesian networks (CBNs) and for correct prediction of BM of BC. Maximum RRs of combined gene expression patterns showed that the expression levels of UBIAD1, HEBP1, BTNL8, TSPO, PSAT1, and ZFP36L2 significantly affected development of BM from BC. Conclusions: The CBN structure can be used as a reasonable inference network for accurately predicting BM in BC.

  • Those who are interested in making inferences concerning linear combination of valiance components in a simple linear regression model with unbalanced nested error structure can use the confidence intervals proposed in this paper. Two approximate confidence intervals for the sum of two variance components in the model are proposed. Simulation study is peformed to compare the methods. The methods are applied to a numerical example and recommendations are given for choosing a proper interval.

  • One of the widely accepted assumptions in many statistical problem is that the underlying distribution is symmetric. Though a large number of nonparametric test are available in the literature for this problem, very few procedures focuses on the distributional structure when the symmetry assumption is rejected. Yanagimoto and Sibuya (1972) provided the various types of asymmetric distributional structure, positive biasedness, namely. In this paper we consider the test of symmetry against several new positive biasedness restrictions which are stronger than Yanagimoto and Sibuya's type II bias but weaker than type IV (III) bias.

  • This paper presents a fuzzy modified PID controller that uses linear fuzzy inference method. In this structure, the proportional and derivative gains vary with the output of the system under control. 2-input PD type fuzzy controller is designed to obtain the varying gains. The proposed fuzzy PID structure maintains the same performance as the general-purpose linear PID controller, and enhances the tracking performance over a wide range of input. Numerical simulations and experimental results show the effectiveness of the fuzzy PID controller in comparison with the conventional PID controller.

  • In this paper, it could improved on the arbitrary nonlinear function learning approximation which have the wavelet neural network based on Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System(ANFIS) and the multi-resolution Analysis(MRA) of the wavelet transform. ANFIS structure is composed of a bell type fuzzy membership function, and the wavelet neural network structure become composed of the forward algorithm and the backpropagation neural network algorithm. This wavelet composition has a single size, and it is used the backpropagation algorithm for learning of the wavelet neural network based on ANFIS. It is confirmed to be improved the wavelet base number decrease and the convergence speed performances of the wavelet neural network based on ANFIS Model which is using the wavelet translation parameter learning and bell type membership function of ANFIS than the conventional algorithm from 1 dimension and 2 dimension functions.

  • This paper presents a systematic approach to the input-output data-based fuzzy modeling for the complex and uncertain nonlinear systems, in which the conventional mathematical models may fail to give the satisfying results. To do this, we propose a new method that can yield a successful fuzzy model using a mGA hybrid schemes with a fine-tuning method. We also propose a new coding method fo chromosome for applying the mGA to the structure and parameter identifications of fuzzy model simultaneously. During mGA search, multi-purpose fitness function with a penalty process is proposed and adapted to guarantee the accurate and valid fuzzy modes. This coding scheme can effectively represent the zero-order Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy model. The proposed mGA hybrid schemes can coarsely optimize the structure and the parameters of the fuzzy inference system, and then fine tune the identified fuzzy model by using the gradient descent method. In order to demonstrate the superiority and efficiency of the proposed scheme, we finally show its applications to two nonlinear systems.
