This paper presents a harmonic extraction algorithm using artificial neural networks for Dynamic Voltage Restorers (DVRs). The suggested algorithm employs a feed forward Multi Layer Perceptron (MLP) Neural Network with error back propagation learning to effectively track and extract the 3rd and 5th voltage harmonics. For this purpose, two different MLP neural network structures are constructed and their performances compared. The effects of hidden layer, supervisors and learning rate are also presented. The proposed MLP Neural Network algorithm is trained and tested in MATLAB program environment. The results show that MLP neural network enable to extract each harmonic effectively. 相似文献
In this study, a novel incremental supervised neural network (ISNN) is proposed for the segmentation of medical images. Performance of the ISNN is investigated for tissue segmentation in medical images obtained from various imaging modalities. Two feature extraction methods based on transform and moments are comparatively investigated to segment the tissues in medical images. Two-dimensional (2D) continuous wavelet transform (CWT) and the moments of the gray-level histogram (MGH) are computed in order to form the feature vectors of ultrasound (US) bladder and phantom images, X-ray computerized tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) head images. In the 2D-CWT method, feature vectors are formed by the intensity of one pixel of each wavelet-plane of different energy bands. The MGH represents the tissues within the sub-windows by using the spatial variation of image intensities. In this study, the ISNN and Grow and Learn (GAL) network are employed for the segmentation task. It is observed that the ISNN has significantly eliminated the disadvantages of the GAL network in the segmentation of the medical images. 相似文献
This paper presents an approach to improve the performance of intelligent sliding model control achieved by the use of a fundamental
constituent of soft computing, named Adaptive Linear Element (ADALINE). The proposed scheme is based on the fractional calculus.
A previously considered tuning scheme is revised according to the rules of fractional order differintegration. After a comparison
with the integer order counterpart, it is seen that the control system with the proposed adaptation scheme provides (1) better
tracking performance, (2) suppression of undesired drifts in parameter evolution and (3) a very high degree of robustness
and insensitivity to disturbances. The claims are justified through some simulations utilizing the dynamic model of a two
degrees of freedom (DOF) direct drive robot arm and overall, the contribution of the paper is to introduce the fractional
order calculus into a robust and nonlinear control problem with some outperforming features that are absent when the integer
order differintegration operators are adopted. 相似文献
This article presents a metamodeling study for Live Sequence Charts (LSCs) and Message Sequence Charts (MSCs) with an emphasis
on code generation. The article discusses specifically the following points: the approach to building a metamodel for MSCs
and LSCs, a metamodel extension from MSC to LSC, support for model-based code generation, and finally action model and domain-specific
data model integration. The metamodel is formulated in metaGME, the metamodel language for the Generic Modeling Environment.
Summary The polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA), ethyl acrylate (EA), styrene (St) and 2-vinyl pyridine (VP) is initiated upon irradiation at >350 nm of dichloromethane solutions containing N-ethoxy-2-methylpyridinium hexafluorophosphate (EMP+PF6-) and anthracene or thioxanthone. Initiation mechanisms involving the formation of ethoxyl radicals during the decomposition of EMP+ ions via electron transfer are proposed. 相似文献
Conventional solid-state power amplifier (SSPA) design approach isolates radio frequency (RF) design from communication theory. In this paper, a unified SSPA design approach is proposed, which optimizes SSPA parameters (bias voltage and input RF signal power) to minimize total DC power consumption while satisfying received SNR constraint specified by the link budget. The effect of SSPA nonlinearity is quantified by the error vector magnitude measured at its output and the corresponding received SNR degradation is analyzed. Using the quantitative metrics for received SNR, it is possible to evaluate highly nonlinear SSPA classes such as Class-B or deep-Class AB, which are normally not considered in conventional SSPA design approach to be used in satellite communication applications. 相似文献
Since the first case of COVID-19 was reported in December 2019, many studies have been carried out on artificial intelligence for the rapid diagnosis of the disease to support health services. Therefore, in this study, we present a powerful approach to detect COVID-19 and COVID-19 findings from computed tomography images using pre-trained models using two different datasets. COVID-19, influenza A (H1N1) pneumonia, bacterial pneumonia and healthy lung image classes were used in the first dataset. Consolidation, crazy-paving pattern, ground-glass opacity, ground-glass opacity and consolidation, ground-glass opacity and nodule classes were used in the second dataset. The study consists of four steps. In the first two steps, distinctive features were extracted from the final layers of the pre-trained ShuffleNet, GoogLeNet and MobileNetV2 models trained with the datasets. In the next steps, the most relevant features were selected from the models using the Sine–Cosine optimization algorithm. Then, the hyperparameters of the Support Vector Machines were optimized with the Bayesian optimization algorithm and used to reclassify the feature subset that achieved the highest accuracy in the third step. The overall accuracy obtained for the first and second datasets is 99.46% and 99.82%, respectively. Finally, the performance of the results visualized with Occlusion Sensitivity Maps was compared with Gradient-weighted class activation mapping. The approach proposed in this paper outperformed other methods in detecting COVID-19 from multiclass viral pneumonia. Moreover, detecting the stages of COVID-19 in the lungs was an innovative and successful approach. 相似文献
Unmanned aerial vehicles have been widely used in many areas of life. They communicate with each other or infrastructure to provide ubiquitous coverage or assist cellular and sensor networks. They construct flying ad hoc networks. One of the most significant problems in such networks is communication among them over a shared medium. Using random channel access techniques is a useful solution. Another important problem is that the variations in the density of these networks impact the quality of service and introduce many challenges. This paper presents a novel density-aware technique for flying ad hoc networks. We propose Density-aware Slotted ALOHA Protocol that utilizes slotted ALOHA with a dynamic random access probability determined using network density in a distributed fashion. Compared to the literature, this paper concentrates on proposing a three-dimensional, easily traceable model and stabilize the channel utilization performance of slotted ALOHA with an optimized channel access probability to its maximum theoretical level, 1/e, where e is the Euler’s number. Monte-Carlo simulation results validate the proposed approach leveraging aggregate interference density estimator under the simple path-loss model. We compare our protocol with two existing protocols, which are Slotted ALOHA and Stabilized Slotted ALOHA. Comparison results show that the proposed protocol has 36.78% channel utilization performance; on the other hand, the other protocols have 24.74% and 30.32% channel utilization performances, respectively. Considering the stable results and accuracy, this model is practicable in highly dynamic networks even if the network is sparse or dense under higher mobility and reasonable non-uniform deployments.
