Deep neural network is a technique of deep learning, where deep neural network model have multiple hidden layers with input and output layer, but artificial neural network have single hidden layer between input and output layer. The use of multiple hidden layers in deep neural network is to improve the performance of model and achieving the higher accuracy compare to machine learning models and their accuracy. The field of pattern recognition is mostly used by the researchers for their research work. There are lots of pattern are available in the field of pattern recognition like: handwritten digits, characters, images, faces, sound, speech etc. In this paper we have concentrated on handwritten digits classification and recognition. For handwritten digit datasets, we have used commonly known Arkiv Digital Sweden (ARDIS) [1] dataset and United State postal service (USPS) [7] dataset. ARDIS dataset is a collection of 7600 samples, where 6600 used as training samples and 1000 used as testing samples. USPS dataset is a collection of 10000 image samples where 7291 samples are used as training sample and 2007 samples are used as testing samples. In this paper we have implemented the proposed deep neural network technique for the classification and recognition of the ARDIS and USPS dataset. The proposed model has collection of 6 layers with relu and softmax activation function. After implementing model, 98.70% testing and 99.76% training accuracy for ARDIS samples achieved, which is higher than previous research accuracy. Also 98.22% training and 93.01%testing accuracy with USPS samples dataset has been achieved. The results represents the performance of deep neural networks have been outstanding compare to other previous techniques.

Mechanical damage is recognized as a problem that reduces the performance of oil and gas pipelines and has been the subject of continuous research. The artificial neural network in the spotlight recently is expected to be another solution to solve the problems relating to the pipelines. The deep neural network, which is on the basis of artificial neural network algorithm and is a method amongst various machine learning methods, is applied in this study. The applicability of machine learning techniques such as deep neural network for the prediction of burst pressure has been investigated for dented API 5L X-grade pipelines. To this end, supervised learning is employed, and the deep neural network model has four layers with three hidden layers, and the neural network uses the fully connected layer. The burst pressure computed by deep neural network model has been compared with the results of finite element analysis based parametric study, and the burst pressure calculated by the experimental results. According to the comparison results, it showed good agreement. Therefore, it is concluded that deep neural networks can be another solution for predicting the burst pressure of API 5L X-grade dented pipelines.

Safety Performance Functions (SPFs) are regression models used to predict the expected number of collisions as a function of various traffic and geometric characteristics. One of the integral components in developing SPFs is the availability of accurate exposure factors, that is, annual average daily traffic (AADT). However, AADTs are not often available for minor roads at rural intersections. This study aims to develop a robust AADT estimation model using a deep neural network. A total of 1,350 rural four-legged, stop-controlled intersections from the Province of Alberta, Canada, were used to train the neural network. The results of the deep neural network model were compared with the traditional estimation method, which uses linear regression. The results indicated that the deep neural network model improved the estimation of minor roads’ AADT by 35% when compared with the traditional method. Furthermore, SPFs developed using linear regression resulted in models with statistically insignificant AADTs on minor roads. Conversely, the SPF developed using the neural network provided a better fit to the data with both AADTs on minor and major roads being statistically significant variables. The findings indicated that the proposed model could enhance the predictive power of the SPF and therefore improve the decision-making process since SPFs are used in all parts of the safety management process.

This paper used RBF artificial neural network to evaluate the underground water contaminated by the leachate of waste dump of open pit coal mine of Xinqiu in Fuxin. Firstly, with the advantages of neural network method in dealing with nonlinear problem, the RBF neural network model was built. Then, the normalized standard matrix was taken as training sample and the MATLAB software was used to train the training sample. Finally, the monitoring data were taken as test samples and were inputted in the RBF neural network model to evaluate the groundwater quality of study area. At the same time, the concept of degree of membership was adopted in the result making it more objective and accurate. The result shows that the ground water of this mining is seriously polluted, class of its pollution is Ⅳ-Ⅴ.The method with strong classification function and reliable evaluation results is simple and effective, and can be widely applied in all kinds of water resources comprehensive evaluation.

The optimization for hardware processor and system for performing deep learning operations such as Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) in resource limited embedded devices are recent active research area. In order to perform an optimized deep neural network model using the limited computational unit and memory of an embedded device, it is necessary to quickly apply various configurations of hardware modules to various deep neural network models and find the optimal combination. The Electronic System Level (ESL) Simulator based on SystemC is very useful for rapid hardware modeling and verification. In this paper, we designed and implemented a Deep Learning Accelerator (DLA) that performs Deep Neural Network (DNN) operation based on the RISC-V Virtual Platform implemented in SystemC in order to enable rapid and diverse analysis of deep learning operations in an embedded device based on the RISC-V processor, which is a recently emerging embedded processor. The developed RISC-V based DLA prototype can analyze the hardware requirements according to the CNN data set through the configuration of the CNN DLA architecture, and it is possible to run RISC-V compiled software on the platform, can perform a real neural network model like Darknet. We performed the Darknet CNN model on the developed DLA prototype, and confirmed that computational overhead and inference errors can be analyzed with the DLA prototype developed by analyzing the DLA architecture for various data sets.
