Blind System Identification (BSI) is a major pattern recognition task in many fields, including digital communication systems. Recently, many machine learning techniques have been applied to identify modulation types of signals solely by the receiver without prior knowledge of the transmission protocols. In this paper, we propose Automatic subtractive clustering algorithm Model (ASCAM), a novel hybrid approach between subtractive clustering algorithm (SCA) and deep neural network for not only classifying the order of Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) from the corrupted baseband constellations, but also estimating the original symbols' locations in their constellations. For this model, a deep neural network based on parallel convolution is used in conjunction with a negative straight-through estimator to formulate this problem as a supervised task, regardless of the non-differentiability of SCA. Our simulation demonstrates that the model works well for QAMs with Rayleigh fading and additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN), and achieves better performance than other existing methods. It also generalizes its feature extraction well, as it can maintain its performance even when some symbols in the observed constellations are not present.

In this paper, we propose a new clustering-based fuzzy time series (FTS) forecasting method based on linear combinations of independent variables, the subtractive clustering algorithm and the artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm. The subtractive clustering algorithm is used to automatically generate clusters of historical training data and get the cluster center of each cluster. The ABC algorithm is applied to obtain the optimal neighborhood radiuses of the subtractive clustering algorithm to get the optimal cluster center of each cluster of the historical training data. Based on the obtained cluster center of each cluster, the weighted contribution of each cluster with respect to each historical training datum is calculated. Finally, the proposed method constructs the linear combinations of independent variables of the historical training data using this weighted contribution to forecast the historical testing data. The proposed method gets higher forecasting accuracy rates than the existing methods for forecasting the Taiwan Stock Exchange Capitalization Weighted Stock Index (TAIEX), the enrollments of the University of Alabama and the daily percentage of CO2.

Large and dense mobile ad hoc networks often meet scalability problems, the hierarchical structures are needed to achieve performance of network such as cluster control structure. clustering in mobile ad hoc networks is an organization method dividing the nodes in groups, which are managed by the nodes called cluster-heads. As far as we know, the difficulty of clusteringalgorithm lies in determining the number and positions of cluster-heads. In this article, the subtractive clustering algorithm based on the Akaike information criterion is proposed. First, Akaike information criterion is introduced to formulate the optimal number of the cluster-heads. Then, subtractive clustering algorithm is used in mobile ad hoc networks to get several feasible clustering schemes. Finally, the candidate schemes are evaluated by the index of minimum of the largest within-cluster distance variance to determine the optimal scheme. The results of simulation show that the performance of the proposed algorithm is superior to widely referenced clustering approach in terms of average cluster-head lifetime.

Target identification using Remote Sensing techniques saves time, cost and reduces difficulties in field investigation. The endmember is a reference spectral response of a pure pixel in the hyperspectral image and is used for object identification/classification from hyperspectral data. Quality of endmembers selected influences classification accuracy. Though there have been several algorithms proposed for endmember extraction, choosing a benchmark algorithm requires further investigation. To the best of our knowledge, similarity measures have not been explored much in the extraction of spectrally distinct signatures called endmembers. In this paper, we propose a similarity measures based subtractive clustering algorithm (SM-SCA) for endmember extraction. The objective of this paper is to explore the applicability of a SM-SCA and effectiveness of different similarity measures in endmember extraction and to compare it's performance with classical endmember extraction algorithms. Implementation on airborne hyperspectral (Samson data and AVIRIS data over Cuprite region) and synthetic data proves that SM-SCA is capable of extracting endmembers of all the materials identified in the data, with appropriate similarity measure. Experimental results show that (i) the similarity measures are potential not only to discriminate but also in extraction of different endmember signatures and (ii) the proposed SM-SCA with phase correlation similarity measure perform comparable to the classical endmember extraction algorithms in identifying endmembers.

In this study, the post-disturbance coherency of buses is added to the conventional phasor measurement unit (PMU) placement problem to find the minimum number of PMUs at different depths of unobservability. To do that, different scenarios are defined based on probabilistic parameters. Then, in each scenario, central buses are determined based on the similarity of post-disturbance variations using subtractive clustering algorithm. The central bus in each area is the bus that its post-disturbance variations are similar to the highest number of buses in the area. The PMU placement problem is then solved considering the number of scenarios where each bus has been selected as a central bus. The resulted placement scheme is more suitable for monitoring the power system dynamics compared to the conventional method. In order to reduce the number of PMUs, the placement problem is solved for higher depths of unobservability. In each depth, the voltage phasor of unobservable buses is obtained using state estimation methods. The results of applying the proposed methodology on 68-bus, 16-machine system show its better performance compared to the conventional method.

This paper presents an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) for the assessment of internal stability of soils under seepage. The training of fuzzy system was performed by a hybrid method of back-propagation (BP) and least mean square algorithm, and the subtractive clustering algorithm was utilised for optimising the number of fuzzy rules. Experimental data on internal stability of soils in the literature were used to validate and evaluate the performance of the proposed ANFIS model. Further, predictions from three models (the BP model, the particle swarm optimisation-BP model and the ANFIS model) were compared with the experimental data. The results show that the ANFIS model is a feasible, efficient and accurate tool for predicting the internal stability of soils according to Wan and Fell's criterion.

Compressive strength is one of the most important engineering properties of concrete, and testing of the compressive strength of concrete specimens is often costly and time consuming. In order to provide the time for concrete form removal, re-shoring to slab, project scheduling and quality control, it is necessary to predict the concrete strength based upon the early strength data. However, concrete compressive strength is affected by many factors, such as quality of raw materials, water cement ratio, ratio of fine aggregate to coarse aggregate, age of concrete, compaction of concrete, temperature, relative humidity and curing of concrete. The concrete compressive strength is a quite nonlinear function that changes depend on the materials used in the concrete and the time. This paper presents an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) for the prediction of concrete compressive strength. The training of fuzzy system was performed by a hybrid method of gradient descent method and least squares algorithm, and the subtractive clustering algorithm (SCA) was utilized for optimizing the number of fuzzy rules. Experimental data on concrete compressive strength in the literature were used to validate and evaluate the performance of the proposed ANFIS model. Further, predictions from three models (the back propagation neural network model, the statistics model, and the ANFIS model) were compared with the experimental data. The results show that the proposed ANFIS model is a feasible, efficient, and accurate tool for predicting the concrete compressive strength.

In this paper, it is shown that accurate load forecasts are vital for short, medium and long-term operations. The energy load forecast has its impact on different outcomes and decisions for power generation companies. It also has its influence on electricity market prices. The purpose of this research is to develop an energy load forecasting model to predict future electricity loads for energy load management. The forecasting model is based on a straightforward sequential methodology by implementing subtractive clustering algorithm, fuzzy C-means clusteringalgorithm and eventually an adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy inference system architecture for generating the best fuzzy inference system using historical energy load data. In addition, the influence of different weather factors on energy loads such as dry-bulb temperature is counted in.
