Vibration response of rotating machines is typically mixed and corrupted by a variety of interfering sources and noise, leading to the necessity for the isolation of the useful signal components. A relevant frequently encountered industrial case is the need for the separation of the vibration responses of the same type of bearings inside the same machine. For this purpose, a Blind Source Separation procedure has been successfully applied, based on the maximization of the information transferred in a neural network structure. Thus, a key element for the success of the proposed procedure is the non-linear function used in this single layer Neural Network structure. However, since the vibration response of defective rolling element bearings is characterized by signals with super-Gaussian distributions, a sensitivity analysis of this non-linear function is necessary. First, this analysis is performed in a set of numerical experiments, based on dynamic models of defective bearings. Finally, the same analysis is applied in an experimental test rig.

To improve the workout efficiency and to provide the body movement suggestions to users in a “smart gym” environment, we propose to use a depth camera for capturing a user’s body parts and mount multiple inertial sensors on the body parts of a user to generate deadlift behavior models generated by a recurrent neural network structure. The contribution of this paper is trifold: 1) The multimodal sensing signals obtained from multiple devices are fused for generating the deadlift behavior classifiers, 2) the recurrent neural network structure can analyze the information from the synchronized skeletal and inertial sensing data, and 3) a Vaplab dataset is generated for evaluating the deadlift behaviors recognizing capability in the proposed method.

This work presents a new approach based on a spiking neural network for sound preprocessing and classification. The proposed approach is biologically inspired by the biological neuron’s characteristic using spiking neurons, and Spike-Timing-Dependent Plasticity (STDP)-based learning rule. We propose a biologically plausible sound classification framework that uses a Spiking Neural Network (SNN) for detecting the embedded frequencies contained within an acoustic signal. This work also demonstrates an efficient hardware implementation of the SNN network based on the low-power Spike Continuous Time Neuron (SCTN). The proposed sound classification framework suggests direct Pulse Density Modulation (PDM) interfacing of the acoustic sensor with the SCTN-based network avoiding the usage of costly digital-to-analog conversions. This paper presents a new connectivity approach applied to Spiking Neuron (SN)-based neural networks. We suggest considering the SCTN neuron as a basic building block in the design of programmable analog electronics circuits. Usually, a neuron is used as a repeated modular element in any neural network structure, and the connectivity between the neurons located at different layers is well defined. Thus, generating a modular Neural Network structure composed of several layers with full or partial connectivity. The proposed approach suggests controlling the behavior of the spiking neurons, and applying smart connectivity to enable the design of simple analog circuits based on SNN. Unlike existing NN-based solutions for which the preprocessing phase is carried out using analog circuits and analog-to-digital conversion, we suggest integrating the preprocessing phase into the network. This approach allows referring to the basic SCTN as an analog module enabling the design of simple analog circuits based on SNN with unique inter-connections between the neurons. The efficiency of the proposed approach is demonstrated by implementing SCTN-based resonators for sound feature extraction and classification. The proposed SCTN-based sound classification approach demonstrates a classification accuracy of 98.73% using the Real-World Computing Partnership (RWCP) database.

BACKGROUND: Convolution neural network is often superior to other similar algorithms in image classification. Convolution layer and sub-sampling layer have the function of extracting sample features, and the feature of sharing weights greatly reduces the training parameters of the network. OBJECTIVE: This paper describes the improved convolution neural network structure, including convolution layer, sub-sampling layer and full connection layer. This paper also introduces five kinds of diseases and normal eye images reflected by the blood filament of the eyeball “yan.mat” data set, convenient to use MATLAB software for calculation. METHODSL: In this paper, we improve the structure of the classical LeNet-5 convolutional neural network, and design a network structure with different convolution kernels, different sub-sampling methods and different classifiers, and use this structure to solve the problem of ocular bloodstream disease recognition. RESULTS: The experimental results show that the improved convolutional neural network structure is ideal for the recognition of eye blood silk data set, which shows that the convolution neural network has the characteristics of strong classification and strong robustness. The improved structure can classify the diseases reflected by eyeball bloodstain well.
