This paper presents the application of machine learning systems based on neural networks to model the energy consumption of electric metro trains, as a first step in a research project that aims to optimise the energy consumed for traction in the Metro Network of Valencia (Spain). An experimental dataset was gathered and used for training. Four input variables (train speed and acceleration, track slope and curvature) and one output variable (traction power) were considered. The fully trained neural network shows good agreement with the target data, with relative mean square error around 21%. Additional tests with independent datasets also give good results (relative mean square error = 16%). The neural network has been applied to five simple case studies to assess its performance – and has proven to correctly model basic consumption trends (e.g. the influence of the slope) – and to properly reproduce acceleration, holding and braking, although it tends to slightly underestimate the energy regenerated during braking. Overall, the neural network provides a consistent estimation of traction power and the global energy consumption of metro trains, and thus may be used as a modelling tool during further stages of research.

The fatigue energy consumption of independent gestures can be obtained by calculating the power spectrum of surface electromyography (sEMG) signals. The existing research studies focus on the fatigue of independent gestures, while the research studies on integrated gestures are few. However, the actual gesture operation mode is usually integrated by multiple independent gestures, so the fatigue degree of integrated gestures can be predicted by training neural network of independent gestures. Three natural gestures including browsing information, playing games, and typing are divided into nine independent gestures in this paper, and the predicted model is established and trained by calculating the energy consumption of independent gestures. The artificial neural networks (ANNs) including backpropagation (BP) neural network, recurrent neural network (RNN), and long short-term memory (LSTM) are used to predict the fatigue of gesture. The support vector machine (SVM) is used to assist verification. Mean square error (MSE), root mean square error (RMSE), and mean absolute error (MAE) are utilized to evaluate the optimal prediction model. Furthermore, the different datasets of the processed sEMG signal and its decomposed wavelet coefficients are trained, respectively, and the changes of error functions of them are compared. The experimental results show that LSTM model is more suitable for gesture fatigue prediction. The processed sEMG signals are appropriate for using as the training set the fatigue degree of one-handed gesture. It is better to use wavelet decomposition coefficients as datasets to predict the high-dimensional sEMG signals of two-handed gestures. The experimental results can be applied to predict the fatigue degree of complex human-machine interactive gestures, help to avoid unreasonable gestures, and improve the user’s interactive experience.

The classification of terrain in terms of passability plays a significant role in the process of military terrain assessment. It involves classifying selected terrain to specific classes (GO, SLOW-GO, NO-GO). In this article, the problem of terrain classification to the respective category of passability was solved by applying artificial neural networks (multilayer perceptron) to generate a continuous Index of Passability (IOP). The neural networks defined this factor for primary fields in two sizes (1000 × 1000 m and 100 × 100 m) based on the land cover elements obtained from Vector Smart Map (VMap) Level 2 and Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM). The work used a feedforward neural network consisting of three layers. The paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the reliability of the neural network parameters, taking into account the number of neurons, learning algorithm, activation functions and input data configuration. The studies and tests carried out have shown that a well-trained neural network can automate the process of terrain classification in terms of passability conditions.

The subject of the research is the methods of constructing and training neural networks as a nonlinear modeling apparatus for solving the problem of predicting the energy consumption of metallurgical enterprises. The purpose of this work is to develop a model for forecasting the consumption of the power system of a metallurgical enterprise and its experimental testing on the data available for research of PJSC "Dneprospetsstal". The following tasks have been solved: analysis of the time series of power consumption; building a model with the help of which data on electricity consumption for a historical period is processed; building the most accurate forecast of the actual amount of electricity for the day ahead; assessment of the forecast quality. Methods used: time series analysis, neural network modeling, short-term forecasting of energy consumption in the metallurgical industry. The results obtained: to develop a model for predicting the energy consumption of a metallurgical enterprise based on artificial neural networks, the MATLAB complex with the Neural Network Toolbox was chosen. When conducting experiments, based on the available statistical data of a metallurgical enterprise, a selection of architectures and algorithms for learning neural networks was carried out. The best results were shown by the feedforward and backpropagation network, architecture with nonlinear autoregressive and learning algorithms: Levenberg-Marquard nonlinear optimization, Bayesian Regularization method and conjugate gradient method. Another approach, deep learning, is also considered, namely the neural network with long short-term memory LSTM and the adam learning algorithm. Such a deep neural network allows you to process large amounts of input information in a short time and build dependencies with uninformative input information. The LSTM network turned out to be the most effective among the considered neural networks, for which the indicator of the maximum prediction error had the minimum value. Conclusions: analysis of forecasting results using the developed models showed that the chosen approach with experimentally selected architectures and learning algorithms meets the necessary requirements for forecast accuracy when developing a forecasting model based on artificial neural networks. The use of models will allow automating high-precision operational hourly forecasting of energy consumption in market conditions.

Accurate information about the fission barrier is important for studying of the fission process. Fission barrier is needed for discovering the island of stability in superheavy region and searching of the superheavy elements. Furthermore, the astrophysical r-process is closely related to the fission barrier of the neutron-rich nuclei. In this study, by using artificial neural network (ANN) method, we have estimated the fission barrier heights of the Rf , Db , Ra and Ac nuclei covering 230 isotopes. For inner barrier calculation, we have used Rf and Db nuclei and the barrier heights have been determined between nearly 1 MeV and 7 MeV. The related mean square error value has been obtained as 0.108 MeV. For outer barrier calculation, we have used Ra and Ac nuclei and the heights have been determined between nearly 8 MeV and 28 MeV. The related mean square error has been obtained as 0.407. The results of this study indicate that ANN is capable for the estimations of inner and outer fission barrier heights.

Cooling Loads

The dramatic growth in the number of buildings worldwide has led to an increase interest in predicting energy consumption, especially for the case of residential buildings. As the heating and cooling system highly affect the operation cost of buildings; it is worth investigating the development of models to predict the heating and cooling loads of buildings. In contrast to the majority of the existing related studies, which are based on historical energy consumption data, this study considers building characteristics, such as area and floor height, to develop prediction models of heating and cooling loads. In particular, this study proposes deep neural networks models based on several hyper-parameters: the number of hidden layers, the number of neurons in each layer, and the learning algorithm. The tuned models are constructed using a dataset generated with the Integrated Environmental Solutions Virtual Environment (IESVE) simulation software for the city of Buraydah city, the capital of the Qassim region in Saudi Arabia. The Qassim region was selected because of its harsh arid climate of extremely cold winters and hot summers, which means that lot of energy is used up for cooling and heating of residential buildings. Through model tuning, optimal parameters of deep learning models are determined using the following performance measures: Mean Square Error (MSE), Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), Regression (R) values, and coefficient of determination (R2). The results obtained with the five-layer deep neural network model, with 20 neurons in each layer and the Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm, outperformed the results of the other models with a lower number of layers. This model achieved MSE of 0.0075, RMSE 0.087, R and R2 both as high as 0.99 in predicting the heating load and MSE of 0.245, RMSE of 0.495, R and R2 both as high as 0.99 in predicting the cooling load. As the developed prediction models were based on buildings characteristics, the outcomes of the research may be relevant to architects at the pre-design stage of heating and cooling energy-efficient buildings.

This research focuses on the development of a system for measuring finger joint angles based on camera image and is intended for work within the field of medicine to track the movement and limits of hand mobility in multiple sclerosis. Measuring changes in hand mobility allows the progress of the disease and its treatment process to be monitored. A static RGB camera without depth vision was used in the system developed, with the system receiving only the image from the camera and no other input data. The research focuses on the analysis of each image in the video stream independently of other images from that stream, and 12 measured hand parameters were chosen as follows: 3 joint angles for the index finger, 3 joint angles for the middle finger, 3 joint angles for the ring finger, and 3 joint angles for the pinky finger. Convolutional neural networks were used to analyze the information received from the camera, and the research considers neural networks based on different architectures and their combinations as follows: VGG16, MobileNet, MobileNetV2, InceptionV3, DenseNet, ResNet, and convolutional pose machine. The final neural network used for image analysis was a modernized neural network based on MobileNetV2, which obtained the best mean absolute error value of 4.757 degrees. Additionally, the mean square error was 67.279 and the root mean square error was 8.202 degrees. This neural network analyzed a single image from the camera without using other sensors. For its part, the input image had a resolution of 512 by 512 pixels, and was processed by the neural network in 7–15 milliseconds by GPU Nvidia 2080ti. The resulting neural network developed can measure finger joint angle values for a hand with non-standard parameters and positions.

Abstract This paper studies the influence of the process parameter setting of the hot-air leaf moisturizer on the quality index of the exit leaf during the secondary leaf conditioning of threshing and redrying, and establishes the corresponding prediction model. According to the characteristics of the characteristic process data of the secondary moisturizing, the prediction models of BP neural network and cyclic neural network are established. Call the current popular neural network writing framework TensorFlow’s high-level API interface to build the neural network structure. Gradually optimize the activation function, optimizer, number of hidden layer neurons and other key parameters in the neural network structure to make the prediction results of the test set reach the best state. By inputting the parameters of the front steam nozzle pressure, the front-end water flow rate, the hot air temperature, the return air temperature, the temperature of the feed blade, and the water combination of the feed blade, two key tobacco leaf evaluation indicators are predicted for the outlet leaf moisture and temperature. Based on the mean square error, root mean square error, and average absolute error of the prediction results as quantitative indicators, the three indicators of BP neural network are 7.17, 2.68, 1.83, and the three indicators of cyclic neural network are 4.70, 2.16, 1.74. It is concluded that the cyclic neural network has the best prediction effect. It has certain reference value for the tobacco factory to adjust the process parameters of the secondary leaf conditioning according to different conditions.
