SummaryThe present paper discusses on development and implementation of back-propagation neural network integrated modified DAYANI method for path control of a two-wheeled self-balancing robot in an obstacle cluttered environment. A five-layered back-propagation neural network has been instigated to find out the intensity of various weight factors considering seven navigational parameters as obtained from the modified DAYANI method. The intensity of weight factors is found out using the neural technique with input parameters such as number of visible intersecting obstacles along the goal direction, minimum visible front obstacle distances as obtained from the sensors, minimum left side obstacle distance within the visible left side range of the robot, average of left side obstacle distances, minimum right side obstacle distance within the visible right side range of the robot, average of right side obstacle distances and goal distance from the robot’s probable next position. Comparison between simulation and experimental exercises is carried out for verifying the robustness of the proposed controller. Also, the authenticity of the proposed controller is verified through a comparative analysis between the results obtained by other existing techniques with the current technique in an exactly similar test scenario and an enhancement of the results is witnessed.

Under the influence of COVID-19, the economic benefits of shale gas development are greatly affected. With the large-scale development and utilization of shale gas in China, it is increasingly important to assess the economic impact of shale gas development. Therefore, this paper proposes a method for predicting the production of shale gas reservoirs, and uses back propagation (BP) neural network to nonlinearly fit reservoir reconstruction data to obtain shale gas well production forecasting models. Experiments show that compared with the traditional BP neural network, the proposed method can effectively improve the accuracy and stability of the prediction. There is a nonlinear correlation between reservoir reconstruction data and gas well production, which does not apply to traditional linear prediction methods

Background: In order to retrieve a particular image from vast repository of images, an efficient system is required and such an eminent system is well-known by the name Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) system. Color is indeed an important attribute of an image and the proposed system consist of a hybrid color descriptor which is used for color feature extraction. Deep learning, has gained a prominent importance in the current era. So, the performance of this fusion based color descriptor is also analyzed in the presence of Deep learning classifiers. Method: This paper describes a comparative experimental analysis on various color descriptors and the best two are chosen to form an efficient color based hybrid system denoted as combined color moment-color autocorrelogram (Co-CMCAC). Then, to increase the retrieval accuracy of the hybrid system, a Cascade forward back propagation neural network (CFBPNN) is used. The classification accuracy obtained by using CFBPNN is also compared to Patternnet neural network. Results: The results of the hybrid color descriptor depict that the proposed system has superior results of the order of 95.4%, 88.2%, 84.4% and 96.05% on Corel-1K, Corel-5K, Corel-10K and Oxford flower benchmark datasets respectively as compared to many state-of-the-art related techniques. Conclusion: This paper depict an experimental and analytical analysis on different color feature descriptors namely, Color moment (CM), Color auto-correlogram (CAC), Color histogram (CH), Color coherence vector (CCV) and Dominant color descriptor (DCD). The proposed hybrid color descriptor (Co-CMCAC) is utilized for the withdrawal of color features with Cascade forward back propagation neural network (CFBPNN) is used as a classifier on four benchmark datasets namely Corel-1K, Corel-5K and Corel-10K and Oxford flower.
