Due to eastward moving synoptic weather system called Western Disturbance (WD), Western Himalaya receives enormous amount of precipitation in the form of snow during winter months (November to April). This precipitation keeps on accumulating and poses an avalanche threat. Temperature plays an important role for the initiation of avalanches. Therefore, prediction of maximum and minimum temperature may be quite helpful for avalanche forecasting. In the present study Artificial Neural Network (ANN), a non-linear method is used for the prediction of maximum and minimum temperature using surface meteorological data observed at various observatories in Western Himalaya region. ANN provides a computational efficient way of determining an empirical possible non-linear relationship between a number of input and one or more outputs. In present study back propagation learning algorithm is used to train the network. In the training process the relationship between input and output is extracted i.e., final weights are computed. Past data of about 25 years is used for training the network and trained network is used for temperature prediction for five winter seasons (2005-06 to 2009-10). Root mean square errors (RMSE) corresponding to maximum and minimum temperature are computed. For independent data set RMSE vary from 2.18 to 2.48 and 1.99 to 2.78 for maximum and minimum temperatures respectively.

AbstractNon-linear processes like conical tank control system is complex because of its non-linear characteristics, long-term interval and time difference between the system input and output. In this context, neural network based controller works since it is able to control and train the non-linear data set of liquid level in order to optimize the network performance. Hence, this article proposes a neural network control using gradient descent with adaptive learning rate that improves the performance and minimizes the errors, by using moving average filter and Hanning window to enhance the non-linear data. The article mainly deals with an application involving ARMA and artificial neural-based network (ANN) to model a conical tank system. To remove the recurrent components and to predict the future values of the process, the present paper employs an Autoregressive Moving Average Model (ARMA) by identifying its time varying parameters and combining with artificial neural network. MATLAB R2016b was applied for the entire simulation and training of non-linear data set. The simulation results indicate a minimization in the difference between the net input to the output and target value with that of error. The results indicated that the simulation took only 13 s to train the entire network for 6,135 iterations with the ARMA based model.

In this paper to make use of complementary potential in the mapping of LULC spatial data is acquired from LandSat 8 OLI sensor images are taken in 2019.  They have been rectified, enhanced and then classified according to Random forest (RF) and artificial neural network (ANN) methods. Optical remote sensing images have been used to get information on the status of LULC classification, and extraction details. The classification of both satellite image types is used to extract features and to analyse LULC of the study area. The results of the classification showed that the artificial neural network method outperforms the random forest method. The required image processing has been made for Optical Remote Sensing Data to be used in LULC mapping, include the geometric correction, Image Enhancements, The overall accuracy when using the ANN methods 0.91 and the kappa accuracy was found 0.89 for the training data set. While the overall accuracy and the kappa accuracy of the test dataset were found 0.89 and 0.87 respectively.

This research aims to enhance the watermelon’s quality selection process, which was traditionally conducted by knocking the watermelon fruit and sort out by the sound’s character. The proposed method in this research is generating the sound spectrum through the watermelon and then analyzes the response signal’s frequency and the amplitude by Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). Then the obtained data were used to train and verify the neural network processor. The result shows that, the frequencies of 129 and 172 Hz were suit to be used in the comparison. Thirty watermelons, which were randomly selected from the orchard, were used to create a data set, and then were cut to manually check and match to the fruits’ quality. The 129 Hz frequency gave the response ranging from 13.57 and above in 3 groups of watermelons quality, including, not fully ripened, fully ripened, and close to rotten watermelons. When the 172 Hz gave the response between 11.11–12.72 in not fully ripened watermelons and those of 13.00 or more in the group of close to rotten and hollow watermelons. The response was then used as a training condition for the artificial neural network processor of the sorting machine prototype. The verification results provided a reasonable prediction of the ripeness level of watermelon and can be used as a pilot prototype to improve the efficiency of the tools to obtain a modern-watermelon quality selection tool, which could enhance the competitiveness of the local farmers on the product quality control.

A model was developed for the analysis and prediction of correlation between composition and mechanical properties of Mg-Al-Zn (AZ) magnesium alloys by applying artificial neural network (ANN). The input parameters of the neural network (NN) are alloy composition. The outputs of the NN model are important mechanical properties, including ultimate tensile strength, tensile yield strength and elongation. The model is based on multilayer feedforward neural network. The NN was trained with comprehensive data set collected from domestic and foreign literature. A very good performance of the neural network was achieved. The model can be used for the simulation and prediction of mechanical properties of AZ system magnesium alloys as functions of composition.

<em>Artificial neural network (ANN) approach was used to model energy dissipation process into sensible heat and latent heat (evapotranspiration) fluxes. The ANN model has 5 inputs which are leaf temperature T<sub>l</sub>, air temperature T<sub>a</sub>, net radiation R<sub>n</sub>, wind speed u<sub>c</sub> and actual vapor pressure e<sub>a</sub>. Adjustment of ANN was conducted using back propagation technique, employing measurement data of input and output parameters of the ANN. The estimation results using the adjusted ANN shows its capability in resembling the heat dissipation process by giving outputs of sensible and latent heat fluxes closed to its respective measurement values as the measured input values are given.  The ANN structure presented in this paper suits for modeling similar process over vegetated surfaces, but the adjusted parameters are unique. Therefore observation data set for each different vegetation and adjustment of ANN are required.</em>

Kalpana satellite images in real time available by India meteorological department (IMD), contain relevant inputs about the cloud in infra-red (IR), water vapor (WV), and visible (VIS) bands. In the present study an attempt has been made to forecast precipitation at six stations in western Himalaya by using extracted grey scale values of IR and WV images. The extracted pixel values at a location are trained for the corresponding precipitation at that location. The precipitation state at 0300 UTC is considered to train the model for precipitation forecast with 24 hour lead time. The satellite images acquired in IR (10.5 - 12.5 µm) and WV (5.7 - 7.1 µm) bands have been used for developing Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model for qualitative as well as quantitative precipitation forecast. The model results are validated with ground observations and skill scores are computed to check the potential of the model for operational purpose. The probability of detection at the six stations varies from 0.78 for Gulmarg in Pir-Panjal range to 0.95 for Dras in Greater Himalayan range. Overall performance for qualitative forecast is in the range from 61% to 84%. Root mean square error for different locations under study is in the range 5.81 to 8.7.
