Multi Parametric Evaluation of Back Propagation Artificial Neural Network in Determination of Geoid Undulations
The increased use of GNSS for technical constructions and infrastructure works makes necessary the calculation of local accurate geoid undulation’s models for the determination of accurate orthometric heights. Apart from the conventional methods, artificial neural networks (ANN) are also used for this purpose. Specially, back propagation artificial neural networks (BPANN) are widely applied for...
متن کاملModelling local GPS/levelling geoid undulations using Support Vector Machines
Support vector machines (SVM) with wavelet kernel has been applied to the correcting gravimetric geoid using GPS/levelling data. These data were divided into a training and a validation set in order to ensure the extendability of the approximation of the corrector surface. The optimal parameters of the SVM were considered as a trade-off between accuracy and extendability of the solution in orde...
متن کاملTopology of Platonic Spherical Manifolds: From Homotopy to Harmonic Analysis
We carry out the harmonic analysis on four Platonic spherical three-manifolds with different topologies. Starting out from the homotopies (Everitt 2004), we convert them into deck operations, acting on the simply connected three-sphere as the cover, and obtain the corresponding variety of deck groups. For each topology, the three-sphere is tiled into copies of a fundamental domain under the cor...
متن کاملSpherical Harmonic Amplitudes From Grid Data
The problem of resolving spherical harmonic components from numerical data defined on a rectangular grid has many applications, particularly for the problem of gravitational radiation extraction. A novel method due to Misner improves on traditional techniques by avoiding the need to cover the sphere with a coordinate system appropriate to the grid geometry. This paper will discuss Misner’s meth...
متن کاملAn Analysis of Nigerian Recession
Over the years, Nigeria depends on crude oil proceeds as the major source of national income, foreign exchange and external reserves. This dependence coupled with the huge cost of running and maintaining the political structure among other factors prove disastrous by leading the economy to the worst recession in decades. We therefore, chronicle the origin, effects and way out of the recession v...
