The peculiarities of neural network training for forecasting taxi passenger demand using graphics processing units are considered, which allowed to speed up the training procedure for different sets of input data, hardware configurations, and its power. It has been found that taxi services are becoming more accessible to a wide range of people. The most important task for any transportation company and taxi driver is to minimize the waiting time for new orders and to minimize the distance from drivers to passengers on order receiving. Understanding and assessing the geographical passenger demand that depends on many factors is crucial to achieve this goal. This paper describes an example of neural network training for predicting taxi passenger demand. It shows the importance of a large input dataset for the accuracy of the neural network. Since the training of a neural network is a lengthy process, parallel training was used to speed up the training. The neural network for forecasting taxi passenger demand was trained using different hardware configurations, such as one CPU, one GPU, and two GPUs. The training times of one epoch were compared along with these configurations. The impact of different hardware configurations on training time was analyzed in this work. The network was trained using a dataset containing 4.5 million trips within one city. The results of this study show that the training with GPU accelerators doesn't necessarily improve the training time. The training time depends on many factors, such as input dataset size, splitting of the entire dataset into smaller subsets, as well as hardware and power characteristics.

Abstract Neural Networks are prevalent in todays NLP research. Despite their success for different tasks, training time is relatively long. We use Hogwild! to counteract this phenomenon and show that it is a suitable method to speed up training Neural Networks of different architectures and complexity. For POS tagging and translation we report considerable speedups of training, especially for the latter. We show that Hogwild! can be an important tool for training complex NLP architectures.

The goal of the paper is to create a training model based on real raw noisy data and train a neural network to determine the behavior of the fuel level, namely, to determine the time and volume of vehicle refueling, fuel consumption / excessive consumption / drainage.Various algorithms and data processing methods are used in fuel control and metering systems to get rid of noise. In some systems, primary filtering is used by excluding readings that are out of range, sharp jumps and deviations, and averaging over a sliding window. Research is being carried out on the use of more complex filters than simple averaging – by example, the Kalman filter for data processing.When measuring the fuel level using various fuel level sensor the data is influenced by many external factors that can interfere with the measurement and distort the real fuel level. Since these interferences are random and have a different structure, it is very difficult to completely remove them using classical noise suppression algorithms. Therefore, we use artificial intelligence, namely a neural network, to find patterns, detect noise and correct distorted data. To correct distorted data, you first need to determine which data is distorted, classify the data.In the course of the work, the raw data on the fuel level were transformed for use in the neural network training model. To describe the behavior of the fuel level, we use 4 possible classes: fuel consumption is observed, the vehicle is refueled, the fuel level does not change (the vehicle is idle), the data is distorted by noise. Also, in the process of work, additional tools of the DeepLearning4 library were used to load data training and training a neural network. A multilayer neural network model is used, namely a three-layer neural network, as well as used various training parameters provided by the DeepLearning4j library, which were obtained because of experiments.After training the neural network was used on test data, because of which the Confusion Matrix and Evaluation Metrics were obtained.In conclusion, finding a good model takes a lot of ideas and a lot of experimentation, also need to correctly process and transform the raw data to get the correct data for training. So far, a neural network has been trained to determine the state of the fuel level at a point in time and classify the behavior into four main labels (classes). Although we have not reduced the error in determining the behavior of the fuel level to zero, we have saved the states of the neural network, and in the future we will be able to retrain and evolve our neural network to obtain better results.

In order to improve the electrical quality disturbance recognition ability of the neural network, this paper studies a depth learning-based power quality disturbance recognition and classification method: constructing a power quality perturbation model, generating training set; construct depth neural network; profit training set to depth neural network training; verify the performance of the depth neural network; the results show that the training set is randomly added 20DB-50DB noise, even in the most serious 20dB noise conditions, it can reach more than 99% identification, this is a tradition. The method is impossible to implement. Conclusion: the deepest learning-based power quality disturbance identification and classification method overcomes the disadvantage of the selection steps of artificial characteristics, poor robustness, which is beneficial to more accurately and quickly discover the category of power quality issues.

Abstract This study predicts erosion based on the image patterns as the input data by using an ANN approach. Several simulations had been carried out to get the ANN parameter combination in producing the best accuracy through trials and errors. The results show that the accuracy of artificial neural network training is not influenced by the number of channels, namely the input dataset (erosion factors) and the dimensions of the data, but it is determined by changes in the network parameters. The best combination of parameters is 2 hidden layers, learning rate 0.001, Momentum 0.9, and RMS 0.0001 with an accuracy of 98.55%

Up-to-date cadastral maps are crucial for urban planning. Creating those maps with the classical geodetic methods is expensive and time-consuming. Emerge of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) made a possibility for quick acquisition of data with much more details than it was possible before. The topic of the research refers to the challenges of automatic extraction of building footprints on high-resolution orthophotos. The objectives of this study were as follows: (1) to test the possibility of using different publicly available datasets (Tanzania, AIRS and Inria) for neural network training and then test the generalisation capability of the model on the Area Of Interest (AOI); (2) to evaluate the effect of the normalised digital surface model (nDSM) on the results of neural network training and implementation. Evaluation of the results shown that the models trained on the Tanzania (IoU 36.4%), AIRS (IoU 64.4%) and Inria (IoU 7.4%) datasets doesn't satisfy the requested accuracy to update cadastral maps in study area. Much better results are achieved in the second part of the study, where the training of the neural network was done on tiles (256x256) of the orthophoto of AOI created from data acquired using UAV. A combination of RGB orthophoto with nDSM resulted in a 2% increase of IoU, achieving the final IoU of over 90%.
