Dense scanning is an effective solution for refined geometrical modeling applications. The previous studies in dense environment modeling mostly focused on data acquisition techniques without emphasizing autonomous target recognition and accurate 3D localization. Therefore, they lacked the capability to output semantic information in the scenes. This article aims to make complementation in this aspect. The critical problems we solved are mainly in two aspects: (1) system calibration to ensure detail-fidelity for the 3D objects with fine structures, (2) fast outlier exclusion to improve 3D boxing accuracy. A lightweight fuzzy neural network is proposed to remove most background outliers, which was proven in experiments to be effective for various objects in different situations. With precise and clean data ensured by the two abovementioned techniques, our system can extract target objects from the original point clouds, and more importantly, accurately estimate their center locations and orientations.

Abstract Recent advanced deep learning architectures, such as neural seq2seq, transformer, etc. have demonstrated remarkable improvements in multi-typed sentiment classification tasks. Even though recent transformer-based and seq2seq-based models have successfully enabled to capture rich-contextual information of texts, they are still lacking of attention on incorporating the global semantic information, such as topic, in order to sufficiently leverage the performance of downstream SA task. Moreover, emotional expressions of users are normally in forms of natural human-written textual data which might consist a lot of noise and ambiguity which impose great challenges on the processes of textual representation learning as well as sentiment polarity prediction. To meet these challenges, we propose a novel integrated fuzzy-neural architecture with a topic-driven textual representation learning approach for handling SA task, called as: TopFuzz4SA. Specifically, in the proposed TopFuzz4SA model, we first apply a topic-driven neural encoder-decoder architecture with the incorporation of latent topic embedding and attention mechanism to sufficiently learn both rich contextual and global semantic information of the given textual data. Then, the achieved rich semantic representations of texts are fed into a fused deep fuzzy neural network to effectively reduce the feature ambiguity and noise, forming the final textual representations for sentiment classification task. Extensive experiments in benchmark datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed TopFuzz4SA model in comparing with contemporary state-of-the-art baselines.

In this paper, we develop a boronizing process simulation model based on fuzzy neural network (FNN) approach for estimating the thickness of the FeB and Fe2B layers. The model represents a synthesis of two artificial intelligence techniques; the fuzzy logic and the neural network. Characteristics of the fuzzy neural network approach for the modelling of boronizing process are presented in this study. In order to validate the results of our calculation model, we have used the learning base of experimental data of the powder-pack boronizing of Fe-15Cr alloy in the temperature range from 800 to 1050 °C and for a treatment time ranging from 0.5 to 12 h. The obtained results show that it is possible to estimate the influence of different process parameters. Comparing the results obtained by the artificial neural network to experimental data, the average error generated from the fuzzy neural network was 3% for the FeB layer and 3.5% for the Fe2B layer. The results obtained from the fuzzy neural network approach are in agreement with the experimental data. Finally, the utilization of fuzzy neural network approach is well adapted for the boronizing kinetics of Fe-15Cr alloy.

To address deficiencies in the process of fault diagnosis of belt conveyor, this study uses a BP neural network algorithm combined with fuzzy theory to provide an intelligent fault diagnosis method for belt conveyor and to establish a BP neural network fault diagnosis model with a predictive function. Matlab is used to simulate the fuzzy BP neural network fault diagnosis of the belt conveyor. Results show that the fuzzy neural network can filter out unnecessary information; save time and space; and improve the fault diagnosis recognition, classification, and fault location capabilities of belt conveyor. The proposed model has high practical value for engineering.
