A greenhouse system (GHS) is a closed structure that facilitates modified growth conditions to crops and provides protection from pests, diseases and adverse weather. However, a GHS exhibits non-linearity due to the interaction between the biological subsystem and the physical subsystem. Non-linear systems are difficult to control, particularly when their characteristics change with time. These systems are best handled with methods of computation intelligence, such as artificial neural networks (ANNs) and fuzzy systems. In the present work, the approximation capability of a neural network is used to model and control sufficient growth conditions of a GHS. An optimal neural network-based non-linear auto regressive with exogenous input (NARX) time series model is developed for a GHS. Based on the NARX model, two intelligent control schemes, namely a neural predictive controller (NPC) and non-linear auto regressive moving average (NARMA-L2) controller are proposed to achieve the desired growth conditions such as humidity and temperature for a better yield. Finally, closed-loop performances of the above two control schemes for servo and regulatory operations are analysed for various operating conditions using performance indices.

Several intelligent data mining approaches, including neural networks, have been widely employed by academics during the last decade. In today's rapidly evolving economy, stock market data prediction and analysis play a significant role. Several non-linear models like neural network, generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH) and autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (ARCH) as well as linear models like Auto-Regressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA), Moving Average (MA) and Auto Regressive (AR) may be used for stock forecasting. The deep learning architectures inclusive of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN), Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) are used in this paper for stock price prediction of an organization by using the previously available stock prices. The National Stock Exchange (NSE) of India dataset is used for training the model with day-wise closing price. Data prediction is performed for a few sample companies selected on a random basis. Based on the comparison results, it is evident that the existing models are outperformed by CNN. The network can also perform stock predictions for other stock markets despite being trained with single market data as a common inner dynamics that has been shared between certain stock markets. When compared to the existing linear models, the neural network model outperforms them in a significant manner, which can be observed from the comparison results.

Currently, there is a need to improve the systems and control of pumping equipment in the oil and gas production and oil and gas transport industries. Therefore, an adaptive neural network control system for an electric drive of a production well was developed. The task of expanding the functional capabilities of asynchronous electric motors control of the oil and gas production system using the methods of neural networks is solved. We have developed software modules of the well drive control system based on the neural network, an identification system, and a scheme to adapt the control processes to changing load parameters, that is, to dynamic load, to implement the entire system for real-time control of the highspeed process. In this paper, based on a model of an identification block that includes a multilayered neural network of direct propagation, the control of the well system was implemented. The neural network of the proposed system was trained on the basis of the error back-propagation algorithm, and the identification unit works as a forecaster of system operation modes based on the error prediction. In the initial stage of the model adaptation, some fluctuations of the torque are observed at the output of the neural network, which is associated with new operating conditions and underestimated level of learning. However, the identification object and control system is able to maintain an error at minimum values and adapt the control system to a new conditions, which confirms the reliability of the proposed scheme.

The strut is one of the most important components in a vehicle suspension system. Since it is highly non-linear it is difficult to predict its performance characteristics using a physical mathematical model. However, neural networks have been successfully used as universal ‘black-box’ models in the identification and control of non-linear systems. This approach has been used to model a novel gas strut and the neural network was trained with experimental data obtained in the laboratory from simulated road profiles. The results obtained from the neural network demonstrated good agreement with the experimental results over a wide range of operation conditions. In contrast a linearised mathematical model using least square estimates of system parameters was shown to perform badly due to the highly non-linear nature of the system. A quarter car mathematical model was developed to predict strut behavior. It was shown that the two models produced different predictions of ride performance and it was argued that the neural network was preferable as it included the effects of non-linearities. Although the neural network model does not provide a good understanding of the physical behavior of the strut it is a useful tool for assessing vehicle ride and NVH performance due to its good computational efficiency and accuracy.

Nonlinear Autoregressive

Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) are increasingly being used for model identification, forecasting and control. When identifying physical models with unknown mathematical knowledge of the system, Nonlinear AutoRegressive models with eXogenous inputs (NARX) or Nonlinear AutoRegressive Moving-Average models with eXogenous inputs (NARMAX) methods are typically used. In the context of data-driven control, machine learning algorithms are proven to have comparable performances to advanced control techniques, but lack the properties of the traditional stability theory. This paper illustrates a method to prove a posteriori the stability of a generic neural network, showing its application to the state-of-the-art RNN architecture. The presented method relies on identifying the poles associated with the network designed starting from the input/output data. Providing a framework to guarantee the stability of any neural network architecture combined with the generalisability properties and applicability to different fields can significantly broaden their use in dynamic systems modelling and control.

COVID-19 is one of the biggest challenges that countries face at the present time, as infections and deaths change daily and because this pandemic has a dynamic spread. Our paper considers two tasks. The first one is to develop a system for modeling COVID-19 based on time-series models due to their accuracy in forecasting COVID-19 cases. We developed an “Epidemic. TA” system using R programming for modeling and forecasting COVID-19 cases. This system contains linear (ARIMA and Holt’s model) and non-linear (BATS, TBATS, and SIR) time-series models and neural network auto-regressive models (NNAR), which allows us to obtain the most accurate forecasts of infections, deaths, and vaccination cases. The second task is the implementation of our system to forecast the risk of the third wave of infections in the Russian Federation.

Methanol Fuel Cell

A direct methanol fuel cell can convert chemical energy in the form of a liquid fuel into electrical energy to power devices, while simultaneously operating at low temperatures and producing virtually no greenhouse gases. Since the direct methanol fuel cell performance characteristics are inherently nonlinear and complex, it can be postulated that artificial neural networks represent a marked improvement in performance prediction capabilities. Artificial neural networks have long been used as a tool in predictive modeling. In this work, an artificial neural network is employed to predict the performance of a direct methanol fuel cell under various operating conditions. This work on the experimental analysis of a uniquely designed fuel cell and the computational modeling of a unique algorithm has not been found in prior literature outside of the authors and their affiliations. The fuel cell input variables for the performance analysis consist not only of the methanol concentration, fuel cell temperature, and current density, but also the number of cells and anode flow rate. The addition of the two typically unconventional variables allows for a more distinctive model when compared to prior neural network models. The key performance indicator of our neural network model is the cell voltage, which is an average voltage across the stack and ranges from 0 to 0:8V. Experimental studies were carried out using DMFC stacks custom-fabricated, with a membrane electrode assembly consisting of an additional unique liquid barrier layer to minimize water loss through the cathode side to the atmosphere. To determine the best fit of the model to the experimental cell voltage data, the model is trained using two different second order training algorithms: OWO-Newton and Levenberg-Marquardt (LM). The OWO-Newton algorithm has a topology that is slightly different from the topology of the LM algorithm by the employment of bypass weights. It can be concluded that the application of artificial neural networks can rapidly construct a predictive model of the cell voltage for a wide range of operating conditions with an accuracy of 10−3 to 10−4. The results were comparable with existing literature. The added dimensionality of the number of cells provided insight into scalability where the coefficient of the determination of the results for the two multi-cell stacks using LM algorithm were up to 0:9998. The model was also evaluated with empirical data of a single-cell stack.

Load shedding plays a key part in the avoidance of the power system outage. The frequency and voltage fluidity leads to the spread of a power system into sub-systems and leads to the outage as well as the severe breakdown of the system utility.  In recent years, Neural networks have been very victorious in several signal processing and control applications.  Recurrent Neural networks are capable of handling complex and non-linear problems. This paper provides an algorithm for load shedding using ELMAN Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN). Elman has proposed a partially RNN, where the feedforward connections are modifiable and the recurrent connections are fixed. The research is implemented in MATLAB and the performance is tested with a 6 bus system. The results are compared with the Genetic Algorithm (GA), Combining Genetic Algorithm with Feed Forward Neural Network (hybrid) and RNN. The proposed method is capable of assigning load releases needed and more efficient than other methods.

Asymmetrical neural networks are shown in the biological neural network as the catfish retina. Horizontal and bipolar cell responses are linearly related to the input modulation of light, while amacrine cells work linearly and nonlinearly in their responses. These cells make asymmetrical neural networks in the retina. Several mechanisms have been proposed for the detection of motion in biological system. To make clear the difference among asymmetrical networks, we applied non-linear analysis developed by N. Wiener. Then, we can derive α-equation of movement, which shows the direction of movement. During the movement, we also can derive the movement equation, which implies that the movement holds regardless of the parameter α. By analyzing the biological asymmetric neural networks, it is shown that the asymmetric networks are excellent in the ability of spatial information processing on the retinal level. Then, the symmetric network was discussed by applying the non-linear analysis. In the symmetric neural network, it was suggested that memory function is needed to perceive the movement.

Abstract The frequency response function (FRF), defined as the ratio between the Fourier transform of the time-domain output and the Fourier transform of the time-domain input, is a common tool to analyze the relationships between inputs and outputs of a mechanical system. Learning the FRF for mechanical systems can facilitate system identification, condition-based health monitoring, and improve performance metrics, by providing an input-output model that describes the system dynamics. Existing FRF identification assumes there is a one-to-one mapping between each input frequency component and output frequency component. However, during dynamic operations, the FRF can present complex dependencies with frequency cross-correlations due to modulation effects, nonlinearities, and mechanical noise. Furthermore, existing FRFs assume linearity between input-output spectrums with varying mechanical loads, while in practice FRFs can depend on the operating conditions and show high nonlinearities. Outputs of existing neural networks are typically low-dimensional labels rather than real-time high-dimensional measurements. This paper proposes a vector regression method based on deep neural networks for the learning of runtime FRFs from measurement data under different operating conditions. More specifically, a neural network based on an encoder-decoder with a symmetric compression structure is proposed. The deep encoder-decoder network features simultaneous learning of the regression relationship between input and output embeddings, as well as a discriminative model for output spectrum classification under different operating conditions. The learning model is validated using experimental data from a high-pressure hydraulic test rig. The results show that the proposed model can learn the FRF between sensor measurements under different operating conditions with high accuracy and denoising capability. The learned FRF model provides an estimation for sensor measurements when a physical sensor is not feasible and can be used for operating condition recognition.
