Artificial neural network (ANN) is an important tool, which is used in numerous fields, such as computer vision, pattern recognition, signal processing, solving optimization problems, and voice analysis and synthesis. Many real-life problems, where the future events play a vital role, are based on the past history. For example, predicting the behavior of stock market indices and electrical load forecasting. In this paper, we establish an efficient learning algorithm for periodic perceptron (PP) in order to test in realistic problems, such as the XOR function and the parity problem. Here, the periodic threshold output function guarantees the convergence of the learning algorithm for the multilayer perceptron. By using the binary Boolean function and the PP in single and multilayer perceptron, XOR problem is solved. The performance of PP is compared with multilayer perceptron and the result shows superiority of PP over the multilayer perceptron.

Fitting of forecast function is very difficult and important in non-linear regression forecast problems. The accuracy is directly affected by the fitting of forecast function. Linear model replaced non-linear model in the traditional method is difficult to solve the problem when non-linear is stronger, and the result of fitting and forecast is not ideal. Functional network is a recently introduced extension of neural networks. It has certain advantages solving non-linear problems. Non-linear regression forecast model and learning algorithm based on functional networks is proposed in this article. Example about multi-variable non-linear regression forecast is provided. The simulation results demonstrate that forecast model based on Functional Networks whose accuracy of fitting and forecasting is more than some traditional methods have some value about theory and application.

Due to the distribution of personal computers and the internet, E-mail has become one of the most widely used communicative means. However, a massive amount of spam mail is polluting mailboxes everyday, taking advantage of the ability to send mail to any number of random people through the internet. In this paper we will introduce an efficient method of classifying E-mails using the SVM(Support Vector Machine) learning algorithm, which is recently showing high performance in the field of classifying documents. The disposition of the words inside the E-mail documents are extracted, and the performance of classification is compared and examined through the learning based on the change of DF value which occurs to reduce the disposition space in the learning level. To assess the performance of the SVM, the SVM is compared to the Naive Bayes classifier (which uses probability methods) and a vector model classifier in order to verify that the method of using the learning algorithm of SVM shows better performance.

An intelligent inhabited environment applying interconnected embedded agents by network has intelligent reasoning, planning learning, and control capabilities. Thermal and light comforts are two major control objectives for the environment to deal with using data-driven control method. Practically, dynamic association level of agents should be learned from online data with three reasons: changing structure of agents with the devices to be added to or removed from the environment during residents' life, a large number of dimension of input and output vectors making it is very difficult to design learning based controller, and a multitude of interconnected embedded agents resulting in major load in network communication and calculation. This paper presented a novel online learning algorithm to obtain the structure agents with different functions through identifying the associations between inputs and outputs of the environment. An association weight matrix can be calculated online and the embedded agents can be dynamically divided into multiple subgroups. This can reduce dimension of input vector for each subgroup, reducing network communication load among embedded agents, decreasing the complexities of programming, and improving the learning rate of agents. The experiment results demonstrated the effectiveness and significance of the learning algorithm.

The computotionol power of massively parallel networks of simple processing elements resides in the communication bandwidth provided by the hardware connections between elements. These connections con allow a significant fraction of the knowledge of the system to be applied to an instance of a prob- lem in o very short time. One kind of computation for which massively porollel networks appear to be well suited is large constraint satisfaction searches, but to use the connections efficiently two conditions must be met: First, a search technique that is suitable for parallel networks must be found. Second, there must be some way of choosing internal representations which allow the preexisting hardware connections to be used efficiently for encoding the con- straints in the domain being searched. We describe a generol parallel search method, based on statistical mechanics, and we show how it leads to a gen- eral learning rule for modifying the connection strengths so as to incorporate knowledge obout o task domain in on efficient way. We describe some simple examples in which the learning algorithm creates internal representations thot ore demonstrobly the most efficient way of using the preexisting connec- tivity structure.

Urban Parking is a problem that costs time and energy. That is why intelligent parking is a field of research growing very quickly. In a city where no sensor infrastructure within each place is deployed but only a counting system at every intersection is available, we show that it still possible to propose an efficient method that determines an itinerary that minimizes the expected time to find an available parking place. For this, we first model the urban area by a graph. Then, we implement a learning algorithm that uses a reinforcement learning method. In this model, each agent modeling an intersection, learns the best next street portion. At each step, all the decisions taken by the agents generate an itinerary whose expectation time is the basis for updating the parameters of learning. The execution times and performances of the learning algorithm are compared with those of a method that constructs step by step the itinerary by choosing the next segment with an evaluation of the future expectation time within this segment. We evaluate the performance of the learning algorithm by realistic simulations. The simulation data are extracted from the map of Versailles.

We propose an efficient algorithm for making multi-layered neural networks (MLN) fault-tolerant to all multiple weight faults in a multi-dimensional interval by injecting intentionally two extreme multi-dimensional values in the interval into the weights of the selected multiple links in a learning phase. The degree of fault-tolerance to a multiple weight fault is measured by the number of essential multiple links. First, we analytically discuss how to choose effectively the multiple links to be injected, and present a learning algorithm for making MLNs fault tolerant to all multiple (i.e., simultaneous) faults in the interval defined by two multi-dimensional extreme points. Then it is proved that after the learning algorithm successfully finishes, MLNs become fault tolerant to all multiple faults in the interval. It is also shown that the time in a weight modification cycle depends little on multiplicity of faults k for small k. These are confirmed by simulation.

This paper presents an efficient Hybrid learning algorithm (HLA) for Radial Basis Function Neural Network (RBFNN). The HLA combines the gradient method and the linear least squared method for adjusting the RBF parameters and connection weights. The number of hidden neurons and their characteristics are determined using an unsupervised clustering procedure, and are used as input parameters to the learning algorithm. We demonstrate that the HLA, while providing faster convergence in training phase, is also less sensitive to training and testing patterns. The proposed HLA in conjunction with RBFNN is used as a classifier in a face recognition system to show the usefulness of the learning algorithm. The inputs to the RBFNN are the feature vectors obtained by combining shape information and Pseudo Zernike Moment (PZM). Simulation results on the Olivetti Research Laboratory (ORL) database and comparison with other algorithms indicate that the HLA yields excellent recognition rate with less hidden neurons in human face recognition.

Pocket Estimator is a cloud-based framework to combine an expert weighted estimation algorithm with several learning algorithms for high level, parametric software effort estimation. Main goal of our framework is to create a huge estimation dataset of software implementation projects. This database will be built over the next 2 years and should be used for further scientific research in learning and adjusted effort estimation. We have implemented a k-nearest-neighbor and an expert weighted estimation algorithm. This paper presents our framework and describes the interaction of the parametric software estimation algorithms.

This paper details the process we went through to visualize the output for our data learning algorithm. We have been developing a hierarchical self-structuring learning algorithm based around the general principles of the LaRue model. One example of a proposed application of this algorithm would be traffic analysis, chosen because it is conceptually easy to follow and there is a significant amount of already existing data and related research material with which to work with. While we choose the tracking of vehicles for our initial approach, it is by no means the only target of our algorithm. Flexibility is the end goal, however, we still need somewhere to start. To that end, this paper details our creation of the visualization GUI for our algorithm, the features we included and the initial results we obtained from our algorithm running a few of the traffic based scenarios we designed.
