The aim of this work is to present a model for heat transfer, desorbed refrigerant, and pressure of an intermittent solar cooling system’s thermochemical reactor based on backpropagation neural networks and mathematical symmetry groups. In order to achieve this, a reactor was designed and built based on the reaction of BaCl2-NH3. Experimental data from this reactor were collected, where barium chloride was used as a solid absorbent and ammonia as a refrigerant. The neural network was trained using the Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm. The correlation coefficient between experimental data and data simulated by the neural network was r = 0.9957. In the neural network’s sensitivity analysis, it was found that the inputs, reactor’s heating temperature and sorption time, influence neural network’s learning by 35% and 20%, respectively. It was also found that, by applying permutations to experimental data and using multibase mathematical symmetry groups, the neural network training algorithm converges faster.

Scientific Results

In the work based on agroecological and technological testing of varieties of grain crops of domestic and foreign breeding, winter triticale in particular, conducted on the experimental field of the Smolensk State Agricultural Academy between 2015 and 2019, we present the methodology and results of processing the experimental data used for constructing the neural network model. Neural networks are applicable for solving tasks that are difficult for computers of traditional design and humans alike. Those are processing large volumes of experimental data, automation of image recognition, approximation of functions and prognosis. Neural networks include analyzing subject areas and weight coefficients of neurons, detecting conflict samples and outliers, normalizing data, determining the number of samples required for teaching a neural network and increasing the learning quality when their number is insufficient, as well as selecting the neural network type and decomposition based on the number of input neurons. We consider the technology of initial data processing and selecting the optimal neural network structure that allows to significantly reduce modeling errors in comparison with neural networks created with unprepared source data. Our accumulated experience of working with neural networks has demonstrated encouraging results, which indicates the prospects of this area, especially when describing processes with large amounts of variables. In order to verify the resulting neural network model, we have carried out a computational experiment, which showed the possibility of applying scientific results in practice.

The article describes an algorithm for the synthesis of neural networks for controlling the gyrostabilizer. The neural network acts as an observer of the state vector. The role of such an observer is to provide feedback to the gyrostabilizer, which is illustrated in the article. Gyrostabilizer is a gyroscopic device designed to stabilize individual objects or devices, as well as to determine the angular deviations of objects. Gyrostabilizer systems will be more widely used, as they provide an effective means of motion control with a number of significant advantages for various designs. The article deals in detail with the issue of specific stage features of classical algorithms: selecting the network architecture, training the neural network, and verifying the results of feedback control. In recent years, neural networks have become an increasingly powerful tool in scientific computing. The universal approximation theorem states that a neural network can be constructed to approximate any given continuous function with the required accuracy. The back propagation algorithm also allows effectively optimizing the parameters when training a neural network. Due to the use of graphics processors, it is possible to perform efficient calculations for scientific and engineering tasks. The article presents the optimal configuration of the neural network, such as the depth of memory, the number of layers and neurons in these layers, as well as the functions of the activation layer. In addition, it provides data on dynamic systems to improve neural network training. An optimal training scheme is also provided.

Scour can have the effect of subsidence of the piers in bridges, which can ultimately lead to the total collapse of these systems. Effective bridge design needs appropriate information on the equilibrium depth of local scour. The flow field around bridge piers is complex so that deriving a theoretical model for predicting the exact equilibrium depth of local scour seems to be near impossible. On the other hand, the assessment of empirical models highly depends on local conditions, which is usually too conservative. In the present study, artificial neural networks are used to estimate the equilibrium depth of the local scour around bridge piers. Assuming such equilibrium depth is a function of five variables, and using experimental data, a neural network model is trained to predict this equilibrium depth. Multilayer neural networks with backpropagation algorithm with different learning rules are investigated and implemented. Different methods of data normalization besides the effect of initial weightings and overtraining phenomenon are addressed. The results show well adoption of the neural network predictions against experimental data in comparison with the estimation of empirical models.

AbstractClassical potentials are widely used to describe protein physics, due to their simplicity and accuracy, but they are continuously challenged as real applications become more demanding with time. Deep neural networks could help generating alternative ways of describing protein physics. Here we propose an unsupervised learning method to derive a neural network energy function for proteins. The energy function is a probability density model learned from plenty of 3D local structures which have been extensively explored by evolution. We tested this model on a few applications (assessment of protein structures, protein dynamics and protein sequence design), showing that the neural network can correctly recognize patterns in protein structures. In other words, the neural network learned some aspects of protein physics from experimental data.

Industry is constantly seeking ways to avoid corrective maintenance so as to reduce costs. Performing regular scheduled maintenance can help to mitigate this problem, but not necessarily in the most efficient way. In the context of condition-based maintenance, the main contributions of this work were to propose a methodology to treat and transform the collected data from a vibration system that simulated a motor and to build a dataset to train and test an Artificial Neural Network capable of predicting the future condition of the equipment, pointing out when a failure can happen. To achieve this goal, a device model was built to simulate typical motor vibrations, consisting of a computer cooler fan and several magnets. Measurements were made using an accelerometer, and the data were collected and processed to produce a structured dataset. The neural network training with this dataset converged quickly and stably, while the tests performed, k-fold cross-validation and model generalization, presented excellent performance. The same tests were performed with other machine learning techniques, to demonstrate the effectiveness of neural networks mainly in their generalizability. The results of the work confirm that it is possible to use neural networks to perform predictive tasks in relation to the conditions of industrial equipment. This is an important area of study that helps to support the growth of smart industries.

In quality evaluation (QE) of the industrial production field, infrared thermography (IRT) is one of the most crucial techniques used for evaluating composite materials due to the properties of low cost, fast inspection of large surfaces, and safety. The application of deep neural networks tends to be a prominent direction in IRT Non-Destructive Testing (NDT). During the training of the neural network, the Achilles heel is the necessity of a large database. The collection of huge amounts of training data is the high expense task. In NDT with deep learning, synthetic data contributing to training in infrared thermography remains relatively unexplored. In this paper, synthetic data from the standard Finite Element Models are combined with experimental data to build repositories with Mask Region based Convolutional Neural Networks (Mask-RCNN) to strengthen the neural network, learning the essential features of objects of interest and achieving defect segmentation automatically. These results indicate the possibility of adapting inexpensive synthetic data merging with a certain amount of the experimental database for training the neural networks in order to achieve the compelling performance from a limited collection of the annotated experimental data of a real-world practical thermography experiment.

Abstract The article examines the identification of human bone fractures using convoluted neural networks. The method of recognition of photographs of patients is intended for automated systems of identification and video recording of images. Convolutional neural networks have a number of advantages, such as invariability when reducing or increasing image size, immunity to photo movements and deviations, changes in image perspective, and many other image errors. In addition, convolutional neural networks allow you to combine neurons at a local level in two dimensions, connect photographic elements in any place, and also reduce the total number of weights. The work describes a multi-layer convolutional network. The layers of which it consists are divided into two types: convolutional and sub-selective. Of interest is the use of the principle of weighting in the work. This principle allows you to reduce the number of characteristics of the neural network that can be trained. Network training is based on the rule of minimizing empirical error. This rule is based on the algorithm of inverse error propagation. This algorithm provides an instant calculation of the gradient of a complex function of several variables in case the function itself is predefined. Neural network training is based on probabilistic method. This method leads to more optimal results due to interference in the restructuring of network weights. The work confirms the axiomatics of the applied neural network, its architecture and its learning algorithm.

It is known that the supervision and learning of robotic executions is not a trivial problem. Nowadays, robots must be able to tolerate and predict internal failures in order to successfully continue performing their tasks. This study presents a novel approach for prediction of robot execution failures based on neural networks. Real data consisting of robot forces and torques recorded immediately after the system failure are used for the neural network training. The multilayer feedforward neural networks are employed in order to find optimal solution for the failure prediction problem. In total, 7 learning algorithms and 24 neural architectures are implemented in two environments – Matlab and specially designed software titled BPnet. The results show that the neural networks can successfully be applied for the problem in hand with prediction rate of 95.4545%, despite having the erroneous or otherwise incomplete sensor measurements invoked in the dataset. Additionally, the real-world experiments are conducted on a mobile robot for obstacle detection and trajectory tracking problems in order to prove the robustness of the proposed prediction approach. In over 96% for the detection problem and 99% for the tracking experiments, neural network successfully predicted the failed information, which evidences the usefulness and the applicability of the developed intelligent method.

The article focuses on the approach to forming the structure of a neural network with application of a pre-built algorithm using Petri nets which represent a well-characterized body of mathematics and help to describe algorithms, in particular, distributed asynchronous systems. According to the proposed approach, the model built in Petri nets serves as the basis for further developing the neural network. There was proposed the idea of informal transformation, which makes sense because the structure of Petri net provides substantiation for the structure of the neural network. This fact leads to decreasing the number of training parameters in the neural network (in the example described in the article the decrease was more than twice: from 650 to 254), increasing the time of the network training and getting initial values for the training parameters. It has been stated that with the initial values obtained the training time grows even more and, thus, training process acts as fine-adjusting values of parameters. Transformation can be explained by the fact that both Petri nets and neural networks act as languages for describing functions, and differ only in the case of neural networks, where the presented function must be trained first (or to find parameter values). The above-mentioned approach is illustrated by the example of the problem of automatic formation of a group of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) and their movement. In this problem, identical instances of the neural network are located on each UAV and interact in asynchronous mode.

. In the coal-rock interface recognition (CIR) technology, signal process and recognition are the key parts. A method for CIR based on BP neural networks and fuzzy technique was proposed in this paper. By using the trail-and-error, the hidden layer dimension of the network was decided. Also the network training and weight modification were studied. In order to get a higher identification ratio, fuzzy neural networks (FNN) based data fusion was studied. For CIR, the structure and algorithm of FNN were determined. The results indicated that the test data can be used to train and simulate with the neural network and FNN. And the proposed method can be used in CIR with a higher recognition ratio.
