This study analyses the robustness and convergence characteristics of a neural network. First, a special class of recurrent neural network (RNN), termed a continuous-time Zhang neural network (CTZNN) model, is presented and investigated for dynamic matrix pseudoinversion. Theoretical analysis of the CTZNN model demonstrates that it has good robustness against various types of noise. In addition, considering the requirements of digital implementation and online computation, the optimal sampling gap for a discrete-time Zhang neural network (DTZNN) model under noisy environments is proposed. Finally, experimental results are presented, which further substantiate the theoretical analyses and demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed ZNN models for computing a dynamic matrix pseudoinverse under noisy environments.

Analog machine learning hardware platforms promise to be faster and more energy efficient than their digital counterparts. Wave physics, as found in acoustics and optics, is a natural candidate for building analog processors for time-varying signals. Here, we identify a mapping between the dynamics of wave physics and the computation in recurrent neural networks. This mapping indicates that physical wave systems can be trained to learn complex features in temporal data, using standard training techniques for neural networks. As a demonstration, we show that an inverse-designed inhomogeneous medium can perform vowel classification on raw audio signals as their waveforms scatter and propagate through it, achieving performance comparable to a standard digital implementation of a recurrent neural network. These findings pave the way for a new class of analog machine learning platforms, capable of fast and efficient processing of information in its native domain.

The concept presented in this paper is based on previous dynamical methods to realize a time-varying matrix inversion. It is essentially a set of coupled ordinary differential equations (ODEs) which does indeed constitute a recurrent neural network (RNN) model. The coupled ODEs constitute a universal modeling framework for realizing a matrix inversion provided the matrix is invertible. The proposed model does converge to the inverted matrix if the matrix is invertible, otherwise it converges to an approximated inverse. Although various methods exist to solve a matrix inversion in various areas of science and engineering, most of them do assume that either the time-varying matrix inversion is free of noise or they involve a denoising module before starting the matrix inversion computation. However, in the practice, the noise presence issue is a very serious problem. Also, the denoising process is computationally expensive and can lead to a violation of the real-time property of the system. Hence, the search for a new ‘matrix inversion’ solving method inherently integrating noise-cancelling is highly demanded. In this paper, a new combined/extended method for time-varying matrix inversion is proposed and investigated. The proposed method is extending both the gradient neural network (GNN) and the Zhang neural network (ZNN) concepts. Our new model has proven that it has exponential stability according to Lyapunov theory. Furthermore, when compared to the other previous related methods (namely GNN, ZNN, Chen neural network, and integration-enhanced Zhang neural network or IEZNN) it has a much better theoretical convergence speed. To finish, all named models (the new one versus the old ones) are compared through practical examples and both their respective convergence and error rates are measured. It is shown/observed that the novel/proposed method has a better practical convergence rate when compared to the other models. Regarding the amount of noise, it is proven that there is a very good approximation of the matrix inverse even in the presence of noise.

Under the impact of COVID-19, research on behavior recognition are highly needed. In this paper, we combine the algorithm of self-adaptive coder and recurrent neural network to realize the research of behavior pattern recognition. At present, most of the research of human behavior recognition is focused on the video data, which is based on the video number. At the same time, due to the complexity of video image data, it is easy to violate personal privacy. With the rapid development of Internet of things technology, it has attracted the attention of a large number of experts and scholars. Researchers have tried to use many machine learning methods, such as random forest, support vector machine and other shallow learning methods, which perform well in the laboratory environment, but there is still a long way to go from practical application. In this paper, a recursive neural network algorithm based on long and short term memory (LSTM) is proposed to realize the recognition of behavior patterns, so as to improve the accuracy of human activity behavior recognition.

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.
