AbstractHerein, an artificial neural network (ANN)-based approach for the efficient automated modeling and simulation of isotropic hyperelastic solids is presented. Starting from a large data set comprising deformations and corresponding stresses, a simple, physically based reduction of the problem’s dimensionality is performed in a data processing step. More specifically, three deformation type invariants serve as the input instead of the deformation tensor itself. In the same way, three corresponding stress coefficients replace the stress tensor in the output layer. These initially unknown values are calculated from a linear least square optimization problem for each data tuple. Using the reduced data set, an ANN-based constitutive model is trained by using standard machine learning methods. Furthermore, in order to ensure thermodynamic consistency, the previously trained network is modified by constructing a pseudo-potential within an integration step and a subsequent derivation which leads to a further ANN-based model. In the second part of this work, the proposed method is exemplarily used for the description of a highly nonlinear Ogden type material. Thereby, the necessary data set is collected from virtual experiments of discs with holes in pure plane stress modes, where influences of different loading types and specimen geometries on the resulting data sets are investigated. Afterwards, the collected data are used for the ANN training within the reduced data space, whereby an excellent approximation quality could be achieved with only one hidden layer comprising a low number of neurons. Finally, the application of the trained constitutive ANN for the simulation of two three-dimensional samples is shown. Thereby, a rather high accuracy could be achieved, although the occurring stresses are fully three-dimensional whereas the training data are taken from pure two-dimensional plane stress states.

The present work aims to test the potential of the application of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) for food authentication. For this purpose, honey was chosen as the working matrix. The samples were originated from two countries: Romania (50) and France (53), having as floral origins: acacia, linden, honeydew, colza, galium verum, coriander, sunflower, thyme, raspberry, lavender and chestnut. The ANNs were built on the isotope and elemental content of the investigated honey samples. This approach conducted to the development of a prediction model for geographical recognition with an accuracy of 96%. Alongside this work, distinct models were developed and tested, with the aim of identifying the most suitable configurations for this application. In this regard, improvements have been continuously performed; the most important of them consisted in overcoming the unwanted phenomenon of over-fitting, observed for the training data set. This was achieved by identifying appropriate values for the number of iterations over the training data and for the size and number of the hidden layers and by introducing of a dropout layer in the configuration of the neural structure. As a conclusion, ANNs can be successfully applied in food authenticity control, but with a degree of caution with respect to the “over optimization” of the correct classification percentage for the training sample set, which can lead to an over-fitted model.

The reported study was undertaken in a small agricultural watershed, namely, Kapgari in Eastern India having a drainage area of 973 ha. The watershed was subdivided into three sub-watersheds on the basis of drainage network and land topography. An attempt was made to relate the continuously monitored runoff data from the sub-watersheds and the whole-watershed with the rainfall and temperature data using the artificial neural network (ANN) technique. The reported study also evaluated the bias in the prediction of daily runoff with shorter length of training data set using different resampling techniques with the ANN modeling. A 10-fold cross-validation (CV) technique was used to find the optimum number of hidden neurons in the hidden layer and to avoid neural network over-fitting during the training process for shorter length of data. The results illustrated that the ANN models developed with shorter length of training data set avoid neural network over-fitting during the training process, using a 10-fold CV method. Moreover, the biasness was investigated using the bootstrap resampling technique based ANN (BANN) for short length of training data set. In comparison with the 10-fold CV technique, the BANN is more efficient in solving the problems of the over-fitting and under-fitting during training of models for shorter length of data set.

Artificial neural network has been extensively consumed training model for solving pattern recognition tasks. However, training a very huge training data set using complex neural network necessitates excessively high training time. In this correspondence, a new fast Linear Adaptive Skipping Training (LAST) algorithm for training artificial neural network (ANN) is instituted. The core essence of this paper is to ameliorate the training speed of ANN by exhibiting only the input samples that do not categorize perfectly in the previous epoch which dynamically reducing the number of input samples exhibited to the network at every single epoch without affecting the network’s accuracy. Thus decreasing the size of the training set can reduce the training time, thereby ameliorating the training speed. This LAST algorithm also determines how many epochs the particular input sample has to skip depending upon the successful classification of that input sample. This LAST algorithm can be incorporated into any supervised training algorithms. Experimental result shows that the training speed attained by LAST algorithm is preferably higher than that of other conventional training algorithms.

Predicting complex nonlinear turbulent dynamical systems is an important and practical topic. However, due to the lack of a complete understanding of nature, the ubiquitous model error may greatly affect the prediction performance. Machine learning algorithms can overcome the model error, but they are often impeded by inadequate and partial observations in predicting nature. In this article, an efficient and dynamically consistent conditional sampling algorithm is developed, which incorporates the conditional path-wise temporal dependence into a two-step forward-backward data assimilation procedure to sample multiple distinct nonlinear time series conditioned on short and partial observations using an imperfect model. The resulting sampled trajectories succeed in reducing the model error and greatly enrich the training data set for machine learning forecasts. For a rich class of nonlinear and non-Gaussian systems, the conditional sampling is carried out by solving a simple stochastic differential equation, which is computationally efficient and accurate. The sampling algorithm is applied to create massive training data of multiscale compressible shallow water flows from highly nonlinear and indirect observations. The resulting machine learning prediction significantly outweighs the imperfect model forecast. The sampling algorithm also facilitates the machine learning forecast of a highly non-Gaussian climate phenomenon using extremely short observations.

The prediction of different hydrological phenomenon (or system) plays an increasing role in the management of water resources. As engineers; it is required to predict the component of natural reservoirs’ inflow for numerous purposes. Resulting prediction techniques vary with the potential purpose, characteristics, and documented data. The best prediction method is of interest of experts to overcome the uncertainty, because the most hydrological parameters are subjected to the uncertainty. Artificial Neural Network (ANN) approach has adopted in this paper to predict Hemren reservoir inflow. Available data including monthly discharge supplied from DerbendiKhan reservoir and rain fall intensity falling on the intermediate catchment area between Hemren-DerbendiKhan dams were used.A Back Propagation (LMBP) algorithm (Levenberg-Marquardt) has been utilized to construct the ANN models. For the developed ANN model, different networks with different numbers of neurons and layers were evaluated. A total of 24 years of historical data for interval from 1980 to 2004 were used to train and test the networks. The optimum ANN network with 3 inputs, 40 neurons in both two hidden layers and one output was selected. Mean Squared Error (MSE) and the Correlation Coefficient (CC) were employed to evaluate the accuracy of the proposed model. The network was trained and converged at MSE = 0.027 by using training data subjected to early stopping approach. The network could forecast the testing data set with the accuracy of MSE = 0.031. Training and testing process showed the correlation coefficient of 0.97 and 0.77 respectively and this is refer to a high precision of that prediction technique.

Inversion plays an important role in transient electromagnetic (TEM) data interpretation. This problem is highly nonlinear and severely ill posed. Gradient-descent methods have been widely used to invert TEM data, and regularization schemes containing prior information are applied to reduce the nonuniqueness and stabilize the inversion. During the inversion, the partial derivatives are repeatedly computed, which is time and memory consuming. Furthermore, regularization schemes can only provide limited prior information. Much prior information from knowledge and experience cannot be directly used in inversion. In this work, we applied the supervised descent method (SDM) to TEM data inversion. This method contains an offline training stage and an online prediction stage. In the training stage, a training data set is generated according to prior information. Then, the average descent direction between a fixed initial model and the training models can be learned by iterative schemes. In the online stage of prediction, the learned descent directions are applied directly into the inversion to update the models. In this manner, one can select models satisfying the data and model misfit. In this study, SDM is applied to model- and pixel-based inversion schemes. Synthetic examples indicate that SDM inversion can not only enhance the accuracy of inversion due to the incorporation of prior information but also largely accelerate the inversion procedure because it avoids the online computation of derivatives.

Abstract We studied the potential benefit of using artificial neural networks (ANNs) for the diagnosis of thyroid function. We examined two types of ANN architecture and assessed their robustness in the face of diagnostic noise. The thyroid function data we used had previously been studied by multivariate statistical methods and a variety of pattern-recognition techniques. The total data set comprised 392 cases that had been classified according to both thyroid function and 19 clinical categories. All cases had a complete set of results of six laboratory tests (total thyroxine, free thyroxine, triiodothyronine, triiodothyronine uptake test, thyrotropin, and thyroxine-binding globulin). This data set was divided into subsets used for training the networks and for testing their performance; the test subsets contained various proportions of cases with diagnostic noise to mimic real-life diagnostic situations. The networks studied were a multilayer perceptron trained by back-propagation, and a learning vector quantization network. The training data subsets were selected according to two strategies: either training data based on cases with extreme values for the laboratory tests with randomly selected nonextreme cases added, or training cases from very pure functional groups. Both network architectures were efficient irrespective of the type of training data. The correct allocation of cases in test data subsets was 96.4-99.7% when extreme values were used for training and 92.7-98.8% when only pure cases were used.

We propose a new method for the inversion of surface wave dispersion curves based on the application of an artificial neural network and we suggest a data–driven approach for selecting the range of the space parameters for the calculating training data set. The synthetic data processing results showed that the accuracy of the proposed method is superior local search and equivalent to global search methods, whereas the proposed method is more robust in the presence of noise.

Previous work from our laboratory provided a “proof of concept” for use of artificial neural networks (nnets) to estimate metabolic equivalents (METs) and identify activity type from accelerometer data (Staudenmayer J, Pober D, Crouter S, Bassett D, Freedson P, J Appl Physiol 107: 1330–1307, 2009). The purpose of this study was to develop new nnets based on a larger, more diverse, training data set and apply these nnet prediction models to an independent sample to evaluate the robustness and flexibility of this machine-learning modeling technique. The nnet training data set (University of Massachusetts) included 277 participants who each completed 11 activities. The independent validation sample ( n = 65) (University of Tennessee) completed one of three activity routines. Criterion measures were 1) measured METs assessed using open-circuit indirect calorimetry; and 2) observed activity to identify activity type. The nnet input variables included five accelerometer count distribution features and the lag-1 autocorrelation. The bias and root mean square errors for the nnet MET trained on University of Massachusetts and applied to University of Tennessee were +0.32 and 1.90 METs, respectively. Seventy-seven percent of the activities were correctly classified as sedentary/light, moderate, or vigorous intensity. For activity type, household and locomotion activities were correctly classified by the nnet activity type 98.1 and 89.5% of the time, respectively, and sport was correctly classified 23.7% of the time. Use of this machine-learning technique operates reasonably well when applied to an independent sample. We propose the creation of an open-access activity dictionary, including accelerometer data from a broad array of activities, leading to further improvements in prediction accuracy for METs, activity intensity, and activity type.

The preliminary study presented within this paper shows a comparative study of various texture features extracted from liver ultrasonic images by employing Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), a type of artificial neural network, to study the presence of disease conditions. An ultrasound (US) image shows echo-texture patterns, which defines the organ characteristics. Ultrasound images of liver disease conditions such as “fatty liver,” “cirrhosis,” and “hepatomegaly” produce distinctive echo patterns. However, various ultrasound imaging artifacts and speckle noise make these echo-texture patterns difficult to identify and often hard to distinguish visually. Here, based on the extracted features from the ultrasonic images, we employed an artificial neural network for the diagnosis of disease conditions in liver and finding of the best classifier that distinguishes between abnormal and normal conditions of the liver. Comparison of the overall performance of all the feature classifiers concluded that “mixed feature set” is the best feature set. It showed an excellent rate of accuracy for the training data set. The gray level run length matrix (GLRLM) feature shows better results when the network was tested against unknown data.
