In the pavement maintenance system, the parameter of effective structural number (SNeff) would be a considered factor in deciding whether a road link would be repaired or not. To calculate this parameter, it is required the testing of Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD) and information of layer composition and thicknesses. The combination of these information and using the method of AASHTO’93, it can be calculated the SNeff. These two information generally would be gained through the testings of core drill and test pit which would take time and cost. To overcome these problems, the neural network method or precisely the artificial neural network is developed for analysis of pavement structure. From the analysis, it can be said that the neural network of single perceptron can be used for predicting the SNeff with an acceptable error. In general the value of SNeff obtained from neural network calculation is lower than that of AASHTO’93. In this paper it is also recommended to develop the neural network using multi layer perceptron for the use on pavement system analysis that might be decreasing the error.

A neural-network-based backcalculation procedure is developed for multilayer composite pavement systems. The constructed layers are modeled as compressible elastic layers, whereas the subgrade is modeled as a Winkler foundation. The neural networks are trained to find moduli of elasticity of the constructed layers and a coefficient of subgrade reaction to accurately match a measured deflection profile. The method was verified by theoretically generated deflection profiles and falling weight deflectometer data measurements conducted at Edmonton Municipal Airport, Canada. For the theoretical deflection basins, the results of backcalculation were compared with actual elastic parameters, and excellent agreement was observed. The results of backcalculation using field test data were compared with the results obtained using WESDEF. Similar trends were observed for elastic parameters of all the pavement layers. The backcalculation procedure is implemented in a computer program called DIPLOBACK.

This paper compares two approaches to determining road markings from video sequences, namely, the method of finding the markings using geometrized histograms and the method based on neural networks. An independent open dataset TuSimple is used to conduct a comparative analysis of the algorithms. Since the investigated methods have different architectures, their work is evaluated according to the following metrics: Accuracy, speed (relative FPS), general computational complexity of the algorithm (TFlops).

In this article, the authors try to predict the next-day CAC40 index. They apply the idea of Johan Bollen et al. from (Bollen, Mao, & Zeng, 2011) on the French stock market and they conduct their experiment using French tweets. Two analyses are applied on tweets: sentiment analysis and subjectivity analysis. Results of these analyses are then used to train a simple neural network. The input features are the sentiment, the subjectivity and the CAC40 closing value at day-1 and day-0. The single output value is the predicted CAC40 closing value at day+1. The authors propose an architecture using the JEE framework resulting in a better scalability and an easier industrialization. The main experiments are conducted over 5 months of data. The authors train their neural network on the first of the data and they test predictions on the remaining quarter. Their best run gives a direction accuracy of 80% and a mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) of 2.97%. In another experiment, the authors retrain the neural network each day which decreases the MAPE to 1.14%.
