Stroke is a major cause of disability in worldwide and also one of the causes of death after coronary heart disease. Many devices had been designed for hand motor function rehabilitation that a stroke survivor can use for bilateral movement practice. This paper presents an arm motor function rehabilitation device where it is designed to predict the position angle for the robotic arm. MATLAB software is used for real-time positioning that can be developed by SIMULINK block diagram and proof by the simulator in program code in order for devising to operate under the position demand. All the angular motions or feedback to the simulation mode from the attached optical encoders via the Data Acquisition Card (DAQ). The learning algorithm can directly determine the position of its joint and can therefore completely eliminate the need for any system modelling. The robotic arm shows a successful implementation of the learning algorithm in predicting the behavior for arm exoskeleton. (C) 2014 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.

This paper presents the preliminary results of the work on a control algorithm for a two-finger gripper equipped with an electronic skin (e-skin). The e-skin measures the magnitude and location of the pressure applied to it. Contact localization allowed the development of a reliable control algorithm for robotic grasping. The main contribution of this work is the learning algorithm that adjusts the pose of the gripper during the pre-grasp approach step based on contact information. The algorithm was tested on different objects and showed comparable grasping reliability to the vision-based approach. The developed tactile sensor-rich gripper with a dedicated control algorithm may find applications in various fields, from industrial robotics to advanced interactive robots.

Traffic light recognition (TLR) is an integral part of any intelligent vehicle, which must function in the existing infrastructure. Pedestrian and sign detection have recently seen great improvements due to the introduction of learning based detectors using integral channel features. A similar push have not yet been seen for the detection sub-problem of TLR, where detection is dominated by methods based on heuristic models. Evaluation of existing systems is currently limited primarily to small local datasets. In order to provide a common basis for comparing future TLR research an extensive public database is collected based on footage from US roads. The database consists of both test and training data, totaling 46,418 frames and 112,971 annotated traffic lights, captured in continuous sequences under a varying light and weather conditions. The learning based detector achieves an AUC of 0.4 and 0.32 for day sequence 1 and 2, respectively, which is more than an order of magnitude better than the two heuristic model-based detectors.

The links from hidden layer to output layer are expanded for improving the learning performance of neural network. Based on this, a new neural network structure is proposed, and a learning algorithm is derived on it. And then, several n-parity, function approximation and pattern classification problem simulations are made to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method. The experimental results show that the proposed method has the dual merits of quick training speed and good generalization capability. It proves to be a very effective method.

In this paper, we elaborate on what we did to implement our self-structuring data learning algorithm. To recap, we are working to develop a data learning algorithm that will eventually be capable of goal driven pattern learning and extrapolation of more complex patterns from less complex ones. At this point we have developed a conceptual framework for the algorithm, but have yet to discuss our actual implementation and the consideration and shortcuts we needed to take to create said implementation. We will elaborate on our initial setup of the algorithm and the scenarios we used to test our early stage algorithm. While we want this to be a general algorithm, it is necessary to start with a simple scenario or two to provide a viable development and testing environment. To that end, our discussion will be geared toward what we include in our initial implementation and why, as well as what concerns we may have. In the future, we expect to be able to apply our algorithm to a more general approach, but to do so within a reasonable time, we needed to pick a place to start.

This paper proposes a novel learning algorithm of Binary Feedforward Neural Networks (BFNNs) by combining the self-adaptations of both architecture and *** to the learning algorithm of Extreme learning Machine (ELM), our algorithm only adapts the number of hidden neurons and output weights to effectively train BFNNs with a single hidden layer for classification problems. The algorithm consists of two steps including the expanding and pruning phases. During the expandingphase, the algorithm increases the hidden neurons and also searches the weight of the output neuronusing the Perceptron learning Rule to increase the learning accuracy. In the pruning phase, the least relevant hidden neurons measured by a proposed binary neuron's sensitivity are pruned to reduce the complexity of the modeland increase the generalization ability. Experimental results confirmed the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

In this paper, we research the real-time object tracking technology. The object tracking algorithm discussed in this paper is developed based on the Tracking-learning-Detection(TLD) and the Centroid Neural Network(CNN). The object is unknown ahead of tracking;the model of the object is composed of objects transformed geometrically immediately after tracking. The TLD framework is useful for long-term object tracking in a video stream because the TLD framework applies a novel learning algorithm called P-N learning. We propose a method that applies the CNN algorithm to the TLD framework. The CNN algorithm is an unsupervised learning algorithm that provides a stable result, regardless of initial values of learning coefficients and neurons. The object tracking algorithm discussed in this paper has a higher accuracy than that of TLD in terms of detection. Additionally, it exhibits better processing performance than that of TLD.

We propose a novel adaptive fast learning (AFL) algorithm for two-dimensional principal component analysis (2DPCA) in this paper. As opposite to conventional PCA which is based on 1D data vectors, 2DPCA is based on 2D image matrices and thus has higher accuracy than conventional PCA when applied to applications such as face recognition, facial expression recognition, palmprint recognition, etc. Our proposed AFL algorithm simultaneously estimates both eigenvectors and corresponding eigenvalues, and then adaptively sets the learning rate parameters of neurons to ensure all neurons learning with almost the same fast speed. Requiring no image covariance matrix evaluation, the desired multiple eigenvectors of 2DPCA can thus be learned effectively in the form of weight vectors of neurons. The proposed AFL algorithm can also be applied to learning for T-2DPCA. Simulation experiments performed on face database such as the YaleB database clearly demonstrate that the proposed AFL algorithm performs very well and thus is a very effective computational tool for both 2DPCA and T-2DPCA.

The frequency and the extent of damages caused by network attacks have been actually increasing greatly in recent years, although many approaches to avoiding and detecting attacks have been proposed in the community of network security. Thus, how to fast detect actual or potential attacks has become an urgent issue. Among the detection strategies, behavior-based ones, which use normal access patterns learned from reference data (e.g., history traffic) to detect new attacks, have attracted attention from many researchers. In each of all such strategies, a learning algorithm is necessary and plays a key role. Obviously, whether the learning algorithm can extract the normal behavior modes properly or not directly influence the detection result. However, some parameters have to determine in advance in the existing learning algorithms, which is not easy, even not feasible, in many actual applications. For example, even in the newest learning algorithm, which called FHST learning algorithm in this study, two parameters are used and they are difficult to be determined in advance. In this study, we propose a parameterless learning algorithm for the first time, in which no parameters are used. The efficiency of our proposal is verified by experiment. Although the proposed learning algorithm in this study is designed for detecting port scans, it is obviously able to be used to other behavior-based detections.

Aimed at the problem of deviation of uncertainty estimates in the test model of attributes selecting with the information gain, an improved learning algorithm of decision tree based on the uncertainty deviation of entropy measure was developed. In the algorithm, the method of regulating oppositely deviation of the information entropy peak through a sine function was used, when test of attributes choice with information gain the adverse effect of deviation of information entropy peak was restrained. Compared with the ID3, the improvement of classification performance was acquired while its better stability of performance for its decision tree. The research results show that the rationality of attribute selection test was effectively improved through the method based on the entropy uncertainty deviation.
