The purpose of this thesis was to select a cable-stayed bridge to which external force may cause damage as the subject, to develop a damage detection deep learning method capable of detecting cable damage, and to test and verify the developed damage detection deep learning method. The damage detection method was developed as a system that utilizes the acceleration response of a structure measured for maintenance purposes. To extract information capable of identifying the damage locations from among the measured acceleration responses, a CNN ID was used to develop the damage detection deep learning method. The developed damage detection deep learning method was developed in a way not independently arranging 1 machine learning model per each measuring point and finally predicting the damage location based on the decision-making results collected from each machine learning model. The developed damage detection deep learning method performed the learning per each machine learning model by utilizing the acceleration response of a structure acquired based on the preliminary damage test. Finally, the damage detection deep learning method that completed the learning verified the cable damage location detection performance by utilizing the data acquired based on the cable-stayed bridge damage test. As a result, it was confirmed that the developed damage detection deep learning method predicted the damage location of a cable-stayed bridge at an average accuracy of 89%. In the current research, only the cable-stayed bridge of the Seohaegyo Bridge was studied, but in the improved study, the research will be conducted on other bridges and damage assessment will be conducted on all cables.

A cable-stayed bridge is a typical symmetrical structure, and symmetry affects the deformation characteristics of such bridges. The main girder of a cable-stayed bridge will produce obvious deflection under the inducement of temperature. The regression model of temperature-induced deflection is hoped to provide a comparison value for bridge evaluation. Based on the temperature and deflection data obtained by the health monitoring system of a bridge, establishing the correlation model between temperature and temperature-induced deflection is meaningful. It is difficult to complete a high-quality model only by the girder temperature. The temperature features based on prior knowledge from the mechanical mechanism are used as the input information in this paper. At the same time, to strengthen the nonlinear ability of the model, this paper selects an independent recurrent neural network (IndRNN) for modeling. The deep learning neural network is compared with machine learning neural networks to prove the advancement of deep learning. When only the average temperature of the main girder is input, the calculation accuracy is not high regardless of whether the deep learning network or the machine learning network is used. When the temperature information extracted by the prior knowledge is input, the average error of IndRNN model is only 2.53%, less than those of BPNN model and traditional RNN. Combining knowledge with deep learning is undoubtedly the best modeling scheme. The deep learning model can provide a comparison value of bridge deformation for bridge management.

Abstract Representing molecules in the form of only one type of features and using those features to predict their activities is one of the most important approaches for machine-learning-based chemical-activity-prediction. For molecular activities like quantitative toxicity prediction, the performance depends on the type of features extracted and the machine learning approach used. For such cases, using one type of features and machine learning model restricts the prediction performance to specific representation and model used. In this paper, we study quantitative toxicity prediction and propose a machine learning model for the same. Our model uses an ensemble of heterogeneous predictors instead of typically using homogeneous predictors. The predictors that we use vary either on the type of features used or on the deep learning architecture employed. Each of these predictors presumably has its own strengths and weaknesses in terms of toxicity prediction. Our motivation is to make a combined model that utilizes different types of features and architectures to obtain better collective performance that could go beyond the performance of each individual predictor. We use six predictors in our model and test the model on four standard quantitative toxicity benchmark datasets. Experimental results show that our model outperforms the state-of-the-art toxicity prediction models in 8 out of 12 accuracy measures. Our experiments show that ensembling heterogeneous predictor improves the performance over single predictors and homogeneous ensembling of single predictors.The results show that each data representation or deep learning based predictor has its own strengths and weaknesses, thus employing a model ensembling multiple heterogeneous predictors could go beyond individual performance of each data representation or each predictor type.

Accurate prediction of heading date under various environmental conditions is expected to facilitate the decision-making process in cultivation management and the breeding process of new cultivars adaptable to the environment. Days to heading (DTH) is a complex trait known to be controlled by multiple genes and genotype-by-environment interactions. Crop growth models (CGMs) have been widely used to predict the phenological development of a plant in an environment; however, they usually require substantial experimental data to calibrate the parameters of the model. The parameters are mostly genotype-specific and are thus usually estimated separately for each cultivar. We propose an integrated approach that links genotype marker data with the developmental genotype-specific parameters of CGMs with a machine learning model, and allows heading date prediction of a new genotype in a new environment. To estimate the parameters, we implemented a Bayesian approach with the advanced Markov chain Monte-Carlo algorithm called the differential evolution adaptive metropolis and conducted the estimation using a large amount of data on heading date and environmental variables. The data comprised sowing and heading dates of 112 cultivars/lines tested at 7 locations for 14 years and the corresponding environmental variables (day length and daily temperature). We compared the predictive accuracy of DTH between the proposed approach, a CGM, and a single machine learning model. The results showed that the extreme learning machine (one of the implemented machine learning models) was superior to the CGM for the prediction of a tested genotype in a tested location. The proposed approach outperformed the machine learning method in the prediction of an untested genotype in an untested location. We also evaluated the potential of the proposed approach in the prediction of the distribution of DTH in 103 F2 segregation populations derived from crosses between a common parent, Koshihikari, and 103 cultivars/lines. The results showed a high correlation coefficient (ca. 0.8) of the 10, 50, and 90th percentiles of the observed and predicted distribution of DTH. In this study, the integration of a machine learning model and a CGM was better able to predict the heading date of a new rice cultivar in an untested potential environment.

Machine learning is a technique of parsing data, learning from that data, and then applying what has been learned to make informed decisions. Deep learning is actually a subset of machine learning. It technically is machine learning and functions in the same way, but it has different capabilities. The main difference between deep and machine learning is, machine learning models become well progressively, but the model still needs some guidance. If a machine learning model returns an inaccurate prediction, then the programmer needs to fix that problem explicitly, but in the case of deep learning, the model does it by itself. Automatic car driving system is a good example of deep learning. On other hand, Artificial Intelligence is a different thing from machine learning and deep learning. Deep learning and machine learning both are the subsets of AI.

Abstract This paper aims at deeper exploration of the new field named auto-machine learning, as it shows promising results in specific machine learning tasks e.g. image classification. The following article is about to summarize the most successful approaches now available in the A.I. community. The automated machine learning method is very briefly described here, but the concept of automated task solving seems to be very promising, since it can significantly reduce expertise level of a person developing the machine learning model. We used Auto-Keras to find the best architecture on several datasets, and demonstrated several automated machine learning features, as well as discussed the issue deeper.

With the emergence of numerical sensors in sports, there is an increasing need for tools and methods to compute objective motion parameters with great accuracy. In particular, inertial measurement units are increasingly used in the clinical domain or the sports one to estimate spatiotemporal parameters. The purpose of the present study was to develop a model that can be included in a smart device in order to estimate the horse speed per stride from accelerometric and gyroscopic data without the use of a global positioning system, enabling the use of such a tool in both indoor and outdoor conditions. The accuracy of two speed calculation methods was compared: one signal based and one machine learning model. Those two methods allowed the calculation of speed from accelerometric and gyroscopic data without any other external input. For this purpose, data were collected under various speeds on straight lines and curved paths. Two reference systems were used to measure the speed in order to have a reference speed value to compare each tested model and estimate their accuracy. Those models were compared according to three different criteria: the percentage of error above 0.6 m/s, the RMSE, and the Bland and Altman limit of agreement. The machine learning method outperformed its competitor by giving the lowest value for all three criteria. The main contribution of this work is that it is the first method that gives an accurate speed per stride for horses without being coupled with a global positioning system or a magnetometer. No similar study performed on horses exists to compare our work with, so the presented model is compared to existing models for human walking. Moreover, this tool can be extended to other equestrian sports, as well as bipedal locomotion as long as consistent data are provided to train the machine learning model. The machine learning model’s accurate results can be explained by the large database built to train the model and the innovative way of slicing stride data before using them as an input for the model.

Abstract Artificial intelligence is a concept that includes machine learning and deep learning. The deep learning model used in this study corresponds to DNN (deep neural network) by utilizing two or more hidden layers. In this study, MLP (multi-layer perceptron) and machine learning models (XGBoost, LGBM) were used. An MLP consists of at least three layers: an input layer, a hidden layer, and an output layer. In general, tree models or linear models using machine learning are widely used for classification. We analyzed our data by applying deep learning (MLP) to improve the performance, which showed good results. The deep learning and ML models showed differences in predictive power and disease classification patterns. We used a confusion matrix and analyzed feature importance using the SHAP value method. Here, we present a protocol to confirm that the use of deep learning can show good performance in disease classification using hospital numerical structured data (laboratory test).

We built a model labelling the Predicate Argument Structure (PAS) for biomedical documents. PAS is an important semantic information of any document, because it reveals the main event mentioned in each sentence. Extracting PAS in a sentence is an important premise for the computer to solve a series of other problems related to the semantics in text such as event extraction, named entity extraction, question answering system… The predicate argument structure is domain dependent. Therefore, in Biomedical field, it is required to define a completely new Predicate Argument frame compared to the general field. For a machine learning model to work well with a new argument frame, identifying a new feature set is required. This is difficult, manual and requires a lot of expert labor. To address this challenge, we chose to train our model with Deep Learning method utilizing Bi-directional Long Short Term Memory. Deep learning is a machine learning method that does not require defining the feature sets manually. In addition, we also integrate Highway Connection between hidden neuron layers to minimize derivative loss. Besides, to overcome the problem of small training corpus, we integrate Deep Learning with Multi-task Learning technique. Multi-task Learning helps the main task (PAS tagging) to be complemented with knowledge learnt from a closely related task, the NER. Our model achieved F1 = 75.13% without any manually designed feature, thereby showing the prospect of Deep Learning in this domain. In addition, the experiment results also show that Multi-task Learning is an appropriate technique to overcome the problem of little training data in biomedical fields, by improving the F1 score.
