Introduction: Metric recognition methods make it possible to preliminarily and strictly determine the structures of feed-forward neural networks, namely, the number of neurons, layers, and connections based on the initial parameters of the recognition problem. They also make it possible to analytically calculate the synapse weights of network neurons based on metric expressions. The setup procedure for these networks includes a sequential analytical calculation of the values of each synapse weight in the weight table for neurons of the zero or first layer, which allows us to obtain a working feed-forward neural network at the initial stage without the use of training algorithms. Then feed-forward neural networks can be trained by well-known learning algorithms, which generally speeds up the process of their creation and training. Purpose: To determine how much time the process of calculating the values of weights requires and, accordingly, how reasonable it is to preliminarily calculate the weights of a feed-forward neural network. Results: An algorithm is proposed and implemented for the automated calculation of all values of synapse weight tables for the zero and first layers as applied to the task of recognizing black-and-white monochrome symbol images. The proposed algorithm is described in the Builder C++ software environment. The possibility of optimizing the process of calculating the weights of synapses in order to accelerate the entire algorithm is considered. The time spent on calculating these weights for different configurations of neural networks based on metric recognition methods is estimated. Examples of creating and calculating synapse weight tables according to the considered algorithm are given. According to them, the analytical calculation of the weights of a neural network takes just seconds or minutes, being in no way comparable to the time necessary for training a neural network. Practical relevance: Analytical calculation of the weights of a neural network can significantly accelerate the process of creating and training a feed-forward neural network. Based on the proposed algorithm, we can implement one for calculating three-dimensional weight tables for more complex images, either blackand-white or color grayscale ones.

Abstract. Neural networks are ideally suited to describe the spatial and temporal dependence of tracer-tracer correlations. The neural network performs well even in regions where the correlations are less compact and normally a family of correlation curves would be required. For example, the CH4-N2O correlation can be well described using a neural network trained with the latitude, pressure, time of year, and CH4 volume mixing ratio (v.m.r.). In this study a neural network using Quickprop learning and one hidden layer with eight nodes was able to reproduce the CH4-N2O correlation with a correlation coefficient between simulated and training values of 0.9995. Such an accurate representation of tracer-tracer correlations allows more use to be made of long-term datasets to constrain chemical models. Such as the dataset from the Halogen Occultation Experiment (HALOE) which has continuously observed CH4  (but not N2O) from 1991 till the present. The neural network Fortran code used is available for download.

This paper presents the development of a neuro-adaptive active noise control (ANC) system. Multi-layered perceptron neural networks with a backpropagation learning algorithm are considered in both the modelling and control contexts. The capabilities of the neural network in modelling dynamical systems are investigated. A feedforward ANC structure is considered for optimum cancellation of broadband noise in a three-dimensional propagation medium. An on-line adaptation and training mechanism allowing a neural network architecture to characterise the optimal controller within the ANC system is developed. The neuro-adaptive ANC algorithm thus developed is implemented within a free-field environment and simulation results verifying its performance are presented and discussed.

Collecting real-world data for the training of neural networks is enormously time- consuming and expensive. As such, the concept of virtualizing the domain and creating synthetic data has been analyzed in many instances. This virtualization offers many possibilities of changing the domain, and with that, enabling the relatively fast creation of data. It also offers the chance to enhance necessary augmentations with additional semantic information when compared with conventional augmentation methods. This raises the question of whether such semantic changes, which can be seen as augmentations of the virtual domain, contribute to better results for neural networks, when trained with data augmented this way. In this paper, a virtual dataset is presented, including semantic augmentations and automatically generated annotations, as well as a comparison between semantic and conventional augmentation for image data. It is determined that the results differ only marginally for neural network models trained with the two augmentation approaches.

A new neural network modeling approach to the evaporator performance under dry and wet conditions has been developed. Not only the total cooling capacity but also the sensible heat ratio and pressure drops on both air and refrigerant sides are modeled. Since the evaporator performance under dry and wet conditions is, respectively, dominated by the dry-bulb temperature and the web-bulb temperature, two neural networks are used together for capturing the characteristics. Training of a multi-input multi-output neural network is separated into training of multi-input single-output neural networks for improving the modeling flexibility and training efficiency. Compared with a well-developed physics-based model, the standard deviations of trained neural networks under dry and wet conditions are less than 1% and 2%, respectively. Compared with the experimental data, errors fall into ±5%.

RAGE signal transduction via the RAGE-NF-κB signaling pathway is one of the mechanisms of inflammatory reactions that cause severe complications in diabetes mellitus. RAGE inhibitors are promising pharmacological compounds that require the development of new predictive models. Based on the methodology of artificial neural networks, consensus ensemble neural network multitarget model has been constructed. This model describes the dependence of the level of the RAGE inhibitory activity on the affinity of compounds for 34 target proteins of the RAGE-NF-κB signal pathway. For this purpose an expanded database of valid three-dimensional models of target proteins of the RAGE-NF-κB signal chain was created on the basis of a previously created database of three-dimensional models of relevant biotargets. Ensemble molecular docking of known RAGE inhibitors from a verified database into the sites of added models of target proteins was performed, and the minimum docking energies for each compound in relation to each target were determined. An extended training set for neural network modeling was formed. Using seven variants of sampling by the method of artificial multilayer perceptron neural networks, three ensembles of classification decision rules were constructed to predict three level of the RAGE-inhibitory activity based on the calculated affinity of compounds for significant target proteins of the RAGE-NF-κB signaling pathway. Using a simple consensus of the second level, the predictive ability of the created model was assessed and its high accuracy and statistical significance were shown. The resultant consensus ensemble neural network multitarget model has been used for virtual screening of new derivatives of different chemical classes. The most promising substances have been synthesized and sent for experimental studies.

The article is devoted to the consideration of one of the areas of application of modern and promising computer technology – machine learning. This direction is based on the creation of models consisting of neural networks and their deep learning. At present, there is a need to generate new, not yet existing, images of objects of different types. Most often, text files or images act as such objects. To achieve a high quality of results, a generation method based on the adversarial work of two neural networks (generator and discriminator) was once worked out. This class of neural network models is distinguished by the complexity of topography, since it is necessary to correctly organize the structure of neural layers in order to achieve maximum accuracy and minimal error. The described program is created using the Python language and special libraries that extend the set of commands for performing additional functions: working with neural networks Keras (main library), integrating with the operating system Os, outputting graphs Matplotlib, working with data arrays Numpy and others. A description is given of the type and features of each neural layer, as well as the use of library connection functions, input of initial data, compilation and training of the obtained model. Next, the implementation of the procedure for outputting the results of evaluating the errors of the generator and discriminator and the accuracy achieved by the model depending on the number of cycles (eras) of its training is considered. Based on the results of the work, conclusions were drawn and recommendations were made for the use and development of the considered methodology for creating and training generative and adversarial neural networks. Studies have demonstrated the procedure for operating with comparatively simple and accessible, but effective means of a universal Python language with the Keras library to create and teach a complex neural network model. In fact, it has been proved that the use of this method allows to achieve high-quality results of machine learning, previously achievable only when using special software systems for working with neural networks.
