Application of artificial neural network method to predict the breakage properties of PGE bearing chromite ore

In the present investigation, systematic grinding experiments were conducted in a laboratory ball mill to determine the breakage properties of low-grade PGE bearing chromite ore. The population balance modeling technique was used to study the breakage parameters such as primary breakage distribution (B_{i, j}) and the specific rates of breakage (S_i). The breakage and selection function values were determined for six feed sizes. The results stated that the breakage follows the first-order grinding kinetics for all the feed sizes. It was observed that the coarser feed sizes exhibit higher selection function values than the finer feed size. Further, an artificial neural network was used to predict breakage characteristics of low-grade PGE bearing chromite ore. The predicted results obtained from the neural network modeling were close to the experimental results with a correlation of determination R² = 0.99 for both product size and selection function.     

Electronic synaptic characteristics and simulation application of Ag/CeO2/Pt memristor

With the development of science and technology, artificial neural networks (ANNs) have become a research spot. Furthermore, two-terminal oxide memristors with adjustable resistance have attracted extensive attention due to their simple structure, low power consumption, and easy integration, among other attractive features. Additionally, among many oxides, ceria has exhibited good performance, such as longer retention and better stability in resistive devices; however, it was currently rarely used in artificial neural synapses. In this work, a self-designed Ag/CeO₂/Pt memristor was found to realize the slow transition between the high-resistance state (HRS) and low-resistance state (LRS) at a very small working voltage. It was also found to exhibit very good retention performance and cyclic characteristics. The conductivity of the device was analyzed by the current-voltage (I–V) characteristics curve. Furthermore, its artificial synaptic function was explored, and a series of neuromorphic systems simulations were carried out. Additionally, the relationships between the pulse sequence parameters and the resistance state of the device were explored, and an electrical signal simulation of Pavlov's dog experiment was designed. The findings demonstrated that the device could be used to realize the application of artificial neural synapse simulation.

Densely connected convolutional network block based autoencoder for panorama map compression

As a novel virtual reality (VR) format, panorama maps are attracting increasing attention, while the compression of panorama images is still a concern. In this paper, a densely connected convolutional network block (dense block) based autoencoder is proposed to compress panorama maps. In the proposed autoencoder, dense blocks are specially designed to reuse feature maps and reduce redundancy of features. Meanwhile, a loss function, which imports a position-dependent weight item for each pixel, is proposed to train and adjust network parameters, in order to make the autoencoder fit to properties of panorama maps. Based on the proposed autoencoder and the weighted loss function, a greedy block-wise training scheme is also designed to avoid gradient vanishing problem and speed up training. During training process, the autoencoder is divided into several sub-nets. After each sub-net is trained separately, the whole network is fine-tuned to achieve the best performance. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed autoencoder, compared with JPEG, saves up to 79.69 % bit rates, and obtains 7.27dB gain in BD-WS-PSNR or 0.0789 gain in BD-WS-SSIM. The proposed autoencoder also outperforms JPEG 2000, HEVC and VVC in both BD-WS-PSNR and BD-WS-SSIM. Meanwhile, subjective results show that the proposed autoencoder can recover details of panorama images, and reconstruct maps with high visual quality.     

A benchmark data set for two-phase Coriolis metering

For more than a decade there has been growing interest in the use of Coriolis mass flow metering applied to two-phase (gas/liquid) and multiphase (oil/water/gas) conditions. It is well-established that the mass flow and density measurements generated from multiphase flows are subject to large errors, and a variety of physical models and correction techniques have been proposed to explain and/or to compensate for these errors. One difficulty is the absence of a common basis for comparing correction techniques, because different flowtube designs and configurations, as well as liquid and gas properties, may result in quite different error curves. Furthermore, some researchers with interests in the modelling aspects of the field may not have suitable multiphase laboratory facilities to generate their own data sets. This paper offers a small data set that may be used by researchers as a benchmark i.e. a common data set for comparing correction techniques. The data set was collected at the UK National Flow Laboratory TUV-NEL, using air and a viscous oil, and provides experimental points over a wide flow range (8:1 turndown) and with Gas Volume Fraction (GVF) values up to 60%. As a first investigation using the benchmark data set, we consider how data sparsity (i.e. the flow rate and GVF spacing in the experimental grid) affects the accuracy of a correction model. A range of neural network models are evaluated, based on different subsets of the benchmark data set. The data set and some exemplary code are provided with the paper. Additional data sets are available on a web site created to support this initiative.     

Neural network modelling on temperature coefficient of surface tension and its usage in melting point prediction of nanosized metal particles

Temperature coefficient of surface tension is a very important parameter to calculate phase diagrams of nanoparticle metal systems. In this paper, neural network calculation was for the first time used to evaluate the temperature coefficient. It shows that the constructed neural network can predict the temperature coefficient values for 37 metals, with the deviation from the averaged experimental measurements smaller than 25%. Furthermore, the neural network predictions were compared with the calculated values by using an empirical equation and it shows a better performance.
