Workload prediction is important for automatic scaling of resource management, and a high accuracy of workload prediction can reduce the cost and improve the resource utilization in the cloud. But, the task request is usually random mutation, so it is difficult to achieve more accurate prediction result for single models. Thus, to improve the prediction result, the authors proposed a novel two-stage workload prediction model based on artificial neural networks (ANNs), which is composed of one classification model and two prediction models. On the basis of the first-order gradient feature, the model can categorize the workload into two classes adaptively. Then, it can predict the workload by using the corresponding prediction neural network models according to the classification results. The experiment results demonstrate that the suggested model can achieve more accurate workload prediction compared with other models.

Recently, deep learning has been successfully applied to robotic grasp detection. Based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs), there have been lots of end-to-end detection approaches. But end-to-end approaches have strict requirements for the dataset used for training the neural network models and it’s hard to achieve in practical use. Therefore, we proposed a two-stage approach using particle swarm optimizer (PSO) candidate estimator and CNN to detect the most likely grasp. Our approach achieved an accuracy of 92.8% on the Cornell Grasp Dataset, which leaped into the front ranks of the existing approaches and is able to run at real-time speeds. After a small change of the approach, we can predict multiple grasps per object in the meantime so that an object can be grasped in a variety of ways.

Abstract A theory of Efficient Market Hypothesis (EMH) has been introduced by Fama to analyse financial markets. In particular the EMH theory has been proven in real cases under different conditions, including financial crises and frauds. The EMH assumes to examine the prediction accuracy of models designed on retrospective data. Such prediction models could be designed in different ways that motivated us to explore Machine Learning (ML) methods known for building models providing a high prediction performance. In this study we propose a ``deep'' learning method for building high-performance prediction models. The proposed method is based on the Group Method of Data Handling (GMDH) that is the deep learning paradigm capable of building multilayer neural-network models of a near-optimal complexity on given data. We show that the developed GMDH-type neural network has outperformed the models built by the conventional ML methods on the Warsaw Stock Exchange data. It is important that the complexity of the designed GMDH-type neural-networks is defined by the number of layers and connections between neurons. The performances of models were compared in terms of the prediction errors. We report a significantly smaller prediction error of the proposed method than that of the conventional autoregressive and "shallow’’ neural-network models. This finally allows us to conclude that traders will be advantaged by the proposed method.

This paper aims to summarize the findings of research concerning the application of neural networks in traffic noise prediction. Noise is an environmental agent, regarded as a stressful stimulus. Noise exposure causes changes at different levels in living beings, such as the cardiovascular, endocrine and nervous system. Study of traffic noise prediction models began in 1950s to predict a single vehicle sound pressure level at the road side. After that, several traffic noise prediction models such as FHWA, CORTN, STOP and GO, MITHRA, ASJ etc. were developed depending upon various parameters and conditions. Complexity of error identification by means of classical approaches has led to researchers and designers to explore the possibility of neural solution to the problem of traffic noise prediction. Present study is focused on review of various neural network models developed for road traffic noise prediction.

Neural networks are a machine learning method that excel in solving classification and forecasting problems. They have also been shown to be a useful tool for working with big data oriented environments such as law enforcement. This article reviews and examines existing research on the utilization of neural networks for forecasting crime and other police decision making problem solving. Neural network models to predict specific types of crime using location and time information and to predict a crime’s location when given the crime and time of day are developed to demonstrate the application of neural networks to police decision making. The neural network crime prediction models utilize geo-spatiality to provide immediate information on crimes to enhance law enforcement decision making. The neural network models are able to predict the type of crime being committed 16.4% of the time for 27 different types of crime or 27.1% of the time when similar crimes are grouped into seven categories of crime. The location prediction neural networks are able to predict the zip code location or adjacent location 31.2% of the time.

In this study, friction tests are performed, via a custom-built friction tester, on specimens of natural rubber used in automotive suspension bushings. By analyzing the problematic suspension bushings, the eleven candidate factors that influence squeak noise are selected: surface lubrication, hardness, vulcanization condition, surface texture, additive content, sample thickness, thermal aging, temperature, surface moisture, friction speed, and normal force. Through friction tests, the changes are investigated in frictional force and squeak noise occurrence according to various levels of the influencing factors. The degree of correlation between frictional force and squeak noise occurrence with the factors is determined through statistical tests, and the relationship between frictional force and squeak noise occurrence based on the test results is discussed. Squeak noise prediction models are constructed by considering the interactions among the influencing factors through both multiple logistic regression and neural network analysis. The accuracies of the two prediction models are evaluated by comparing predicted and measured results. The accuracies of the multiple logistic regression and neural network models in predicting the occurrence of squeak noise are 88.2% and 87.2%, respectively.

Deep learning is good at both a rapid pace in collecting frameworks of big data healthcare and good predictions for detection the lung cancer early. In this paper, we proposed a constructive deep neural network with Apache Spark to classify images and levels of lung cancer. We developed a binary classification model using threshold technique classifying nodules to benign or malignant. At the proposed framework, the neural network models training, defined using the Keras API, is performed using BigDL in a distributed Spark clusters.

ABSTRACTBecause ambient temperature affects biochemical reactions, organisms living in extreme temperature conditions adapt protein composition and structure to maintain biochemical functions. While it is not feasible to experimentally determine optimal growth temperature (OGT) for every known microbial species, organisms adapted to different temperatures have measurable differences in DNA, RNA, and protein composition that allow OGT prediction from genome sequence alone. In this study, we built a model using tRNA sequence to predict OGT. We used tRNA sequences from 100 archaea and 683 bacteria species as input to train two Convolutional Neural Network models. The first pairs individual tRNA sequences from different species to predict which comes from a more thermophilic organism, with accuracy ranging from 0.538 to 0.992. The second uses the complete set of tRNAs in a species to predict optimal growth temperature, achieving a maximum r2 of 0.86; comparable with other prediction accuracies in the literature despite a significant reduction in the quantity of input data. This model improves on previous OGT prediction models by providing a model with minimum input data requirements, removing laborious feature extraction and data preprocessing steps, and widening the scope of valid downstream analyses.
