This study investigates the use of artificial neural networks (ANNs) to classify reasons for medication nonadherence. A survey method is used to collect individual reasons for nonadherence to treatment plans. Seven reasons for nonadherence are identified from the survey. ANNs using backpropagation learning are trained and validated to produce a nonadherence classification model. Most patients identified multiple reasons for nonadherence. The ANN models were able to accurately predict almost 63 percent of the reasons identified for each patient. After removal of two highly common nonadherence reasons, new ANN models are able to identify 73 percent of the remaining nonadherence reasons. ANN models of nonadherence are validated as a reliable medical informatics tool for assisting healthcare providers in identifying the most likely reasons for treatment nonadherence. Physicians may use the identified nonadherence reasons to help overcome the causes of nonadherence for each patient.

Artificial neural networks were constructed for the classification of metal alloys based on their elemental constituents. Glow discharge-atomic emission spectra obtained with a photodiode array spectrometer were used in multivariate calibrations for 7 elements in 37 Ni-based alloys (different types) and 15 Fe-based alloys. Subsets of the two major classes formed calibration sets for stepwise multiple linear regression. The remaining samples were used to validate the calibration models. Reference data from the calibration sets were then pooled into a single set to train neural networks with different architectures and different training parameters. After the neural networks learned to discriminate correctly among alloy classes in the training set, their ability to classify samples in the testing set was measured. In general, the neural network approach performed slightly better than the K-nearest neighbor method, but it suffered from a hidden classification mechanism and nonunique solutions. The neural network methodology is discussed and compared with conventional sample-classification techniques, and multivariate calibration of glow discharge spectra is compared with conventional univariate calibration.

The article considers the issues of monitoring the thermal conditions of alloys melting and casting at foundries. It is noted that the least reliable method is when the measurement and fixing the temperature is assigned to the worker. On the other hand, a fully automatic approach is not always available for small foundries. In this regard, the expediency of using an automated approach is shown, in which the measurement is assigned to the worker, and the values are recorded automatically. This method assumes implementation of an algorithm for automatic classification of temperature measurements based on an end-to-end array of data obtained in the production stream. The solving of this task is divided into three stages. Preparing of raw data for classification process is provided on the first stage. On the second stage, the task of measurement classification is solved by using neural network principles. Analysis of the results of the artificial neural network has shown its high efficiency and degree of their correspondence with the actual situation on the work site. It was also noted that the application of artificial neural networks principles makes the classification process flexible, due to the ability to easily supplement the process with new parameters and neurons. The final stage is analysis of the obtained results. Correctly performed data classification provides an opportunity not only to assess compliance with technological discipline at the site, but also to improve the process of identifying the causes of casting defects. Application of the proposed approach allows us to reduce the influence of human factor in the analysis of thermal conditions of alloys melting and casting with minimal costs for melting monitoring.

Spectral characteristics play an important role in the classification of oil film, but the presence of too many bands can lead to information redundancy and reduced classification accuracy. In this study, a classification model that combines spectral indices-based band selection (SIs) and one-dimensional convolutional neural networks was proposed to realize automatic oil films classification using hyperspectral remote sensing images. Additionally, for comparison, the minimum Redundancy Maximum Relevance (mRMR) was tested for reducing the number of bands. The support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF), and Hu’s convolutional neural networks (CNN) were trained and tested. The results show that the accuracy of classifications through the one dimensional convolutional neural network (1D CNN) models surpassed the accuracy of other machine learning algorithms such as SVM and RF. The model of SIs+1D CNN could produce a relatively higher accuracy oil film distribution map within less time than other models.

The aim of this project is to analyze high-frequency GPS location data (second per second) of individual car drivers (and trips). We extract feature information about speeds, acceleration, deceleration, and changes of direction from this high-frequency GPS location data. Time series of this feature information allow us to appropriately allocate individual car driving trips to selected drivers using convolutional neural networks.

Varieties of power quality events including voltage sag, swell, momentary interruption, harmonics, transient oscillation and voltage fluctuation are used to test the performance of the proposed approach. The simulation is carried out by using MATLAB software. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme offers superior detection and classification compared to the conventional approaches.

Abstract An artificial neural network was used to build models caple of predicting and quantifying vodka adulteration with methanol and/or tap water. A voltammetric electronic tongue based on gold and copper microelectrodes was used, and 310 analyses were performed. Vodkas were adulterated with tap water (5 to 50% (v/v)), methanol (1 to 13% (v/v)), and with a fixed addition of 5% methanol and tap water varying from 5 to 50% (v/v). The classification model showed 99.5% precision, and it correctly predicted the type of adulterant in all samples. Regarding the regression model, the root mean squared error was 3.464% and 0.535% for the water and methanol addition, respectively, and the prediction of the adulterant content presented an R2 0.9511 for methanol and 0.9831 for water adulteration.

Defect prediction performances are significant to attain quality of the software and to understand previous errors. In this work, for assessing the classification accuracy, precision, and recall and F measure for various classifiers are used. The artificial neural network optimizations make the assumption that more than two algorithms for one optimization have been implemented. The optimization makes use of a heuristic for choosing the best of the algorithms for being applied in a particular situation. An approach of hybrid optimization for designing of the linkages method and is used for the dimensional synthesis of the mechanism. The ANN models are assisted in their convergence towards a global minimum by the multi-directional search algorithm that is incorporated in the GA. The results have shown an accuracy of classification of the NN-hybrid shuffled from algorithm to perform better by about 5.94% than that of the fuzzy classifiers and by about 3.59% of the NN-Lm training and by about 1.42% of the NN-shuffled frog algorithm..
