Abstract The calculation of electromagnetic field distributions within structured media is central to the optimization and validation of photonic devices. We introduce WaveY-Net, a hybrid data- and physics-augmented convolutional neural network that can predict electromagnetic field distributions with ultra fast speeds and high accuracy for entire classes of dielectric photonic structures. This accuracy is achieved by training the neural network to learn only the magnetic near-field distributions of a system and to use a discrete formalism of Maxwell's equations in two ways: as physical constraints in the loss function and as a means to calculate the electric fields from the magnetic fields. As a model system, we construct a surrogate simulator for periodic silicon nanostructure arrays and show that the high speed simulator can be directly and effectively used in the local and global freeform optimization of metagratings. We anticipate that physics-augmented networks will serve as a viable Maxwell simulator replacement for many classes of photonic systems, transforming the way they are designed.

Predicting the axle temperature states of the high-speed train under operation in advance and evaluating working states of axle bearings is important for improving the safety of train operation and reducing accident risks. The method of monitoring the axle temperature of a train under operation, combined with the neural network prediction method, was applied. A total of 36 sensors were arranged at key positions such as the axle bearings of the train gearbox and the driving end of the traction motor. The positions of the sensors were symmetrical. Axle temperature measurements over 11 days with more than 38,000 km were obtained. The law of the change of the axle temperature in each section was obtained in different environments. The resultant data from the previous 10 days were used to train the neural network model, and a total of 800 samples were randomly selected from eight typical locations for the prediction of axle temperature over the following 3 min. In addition, the results predicted by the neural network method and the GM (1,1) method were compared. The results show that the predicted temperature of the trained neural network model is in good agreement with the experimental temperature, with higher precision than that of the GM (1,1) method, indicating that the proposed method is sufficiently accurate and can be a reliable tool for predicting axle temperature.

Abstract. Cloud to ground and cloud to cloud lightning flashes pose a threat to the aircraft body and the electronic systems inside the aircraft. In this paper we present a single unit, as opposed to a three unit, lightning locator mounted on the aircraft that uses the wave-shapes of electromagnetic fields radiated by lightning and electrical activity ahead of the aircraft to locate the distance range of lightning activity. A three element array antenna scans the area ahead of the aircraft to narrow down the area ahead where the lightning or threatening electrical activity is. Moreover, the unique shape of the electric fields depending on the distance from the lightning activity is used by a neural network to train and recognize the distance range of the lightning activity from the aircraft on which the lightning detector is mounted. The combined use of the three element array antenna and the neural network provides the required knowledge of lightning activity for the pilot to take evasive action.

The use of magnetic bearings in high speed/low friction applications is increasing in industry. Magnetic bearings are sophisticated electromechanical systems, and modeling magnetic bearings using standard techniques is complex and time consuming. In this work a neural network is designed and trained to emulate the operation of a complete system (magnetic bearing, PID controller, and power amplifiers). The neural network is simulated and integrated into a virtual instrument that will be used in the laboratory both as a teaching and a research tool. The main aims in this work are: (1) determining the minimum amount of artificial neurons required in the neural network to emulate the magnetic bearing system, (2) determining the more appropriate ANN training method for this application, and (3) determining the errors produced when a neural network trained to emulate system operation with a balanced rotor is used to predict system response when operating with an unbalanced rotor. The neural network is trained using as input the position data from the proximity sensors; neural network outputs are the control signals to the coil amplifiers.

The dissertation deals with some key issues relevant to the controller design and digital design method for a newly patented high-speed parallel manipulator. Meanwhile, a Virtual Prototyping based co-simulation platform is also established according to the ADAMS and Matlab/Simulink software. In order to promote the ability that the manipulator traces the prescribed trajectory, a model based computed torque controller is described in detail, and a neural network algorithm is also used to optimize controller parameters real-timely under the consideration of systematic nonlinear, modeling error and outer disturbance. The neural network based computed torque controller increases the robustness of system dramatically.

This paper focuses on the potential of GA algorithm for adaptive random global search, and WNN resolution as well as the ability of fault tolerance to build a multi intelligent algorithm based on the GA-WNN model using the filter unit of analog circuit for fault diagnosis. Construction of GA-WNN model was divided into two stages; in the first stage GA was used to optimize the initial weights, threshold, expansion factor and translation factor of WNN structure; while in the second stage, initially, based on WNN training and learning, global optimal solution was obtained. In the process of using analog output signal by using wavelet decomposition, the absolute value of coefficient of each frequency band sequence was obtained along with the energy characteristics of the cross joint, with a combination of feature vectors as the input of the neural network. Through the pretreatment method, in order to reduce the neural network input, neural grid size of neurons was reduced in each layer and the convergence speed of neural network was increased. The experimental results show that the method can diagnose single and multiple soft faults of the circuit, with high speed and high precision.

Background: Most of the common multi-user detection techniques have the shortcomings of large computation and slow operation. For Hopfield neural networks, there are some problems such as high-speed searching ability and parallel processing, but there are local convergence problems. Objective: The stochastic Hopfield neural network avoids local convergence by introducing noise into the state variables and then achieves the optimal detection. Methods: Based on the study of CDMA communication model, this paper presents and models the problem of multi-user detection. Then a new stochastic Hopfield neural network is obtained by introducing a stochastic disturbance into the traditional Hopfield neural network. Finally, the problem of CDMA multi-user detection is simulated. Conclusion: The results show that the introduction of stochastic disturbance into Hopfield neural network can help the neural network to jump out of the local minimum, thus achieving the minimum and improving the performance of the neural network.
