چکیده

In this work, we study the behaviour of the Bidirectional Associative Memory (BAM) in terms of the supporting neural structure, with a view to its possible improvements as a useful Pattern Classifier by means of class associations from unknown inputs, once mentioned classes have been previously defined by one or even more prototypes. The best results have been obtained by suitably choosing the training pattern pairs, the thresholds, and the activation functions of the network’s neurones, by means of certain proposed methods described in the paper. In order to put forward the advantages of these proposed methods, the classifier has been applied on an especially popular hand-written character set as the well-known NIST#19 character database, and with one of the UCI’s data bases. In all cases, the method led to a marked improvement in the performance achievable by a BAM, with a 0% error rate.

AN IMPROVED CONTROLLED CHAOTIC NEURAL NETWORK FOR PATTERN RECOGNITION

A sigmoid function is necessary for creation a chaotic neural network (CNN). In this paper, a new function for CNN is proposed that it can increase the speed of convergence. In the proposed method, we use a novel signal for controlling chaos. Both the theory analysis and computer simulation results show that the performance of CNN can be improved remarkably by using our method. By means of this...

A Neural Network Classifier for Occluded Images

This paper proposes a neural network classifier which can automatically detect the occluded regions in the given image and replace that regions with the estimated values. An auto-associative memory is used to detect outliers such as pixels in the occluded regions. Certainties of each pixels are estimated by comparing the input pixels with the outputs of the auto-associative memory. The input va...

Detection and Classification of Breast Cancer in Mammography Images Using Pattern Recognition Methods

Introduction: In this paper, a method is presented to classify the breast cancer masses according to new geometric features. Methods: After obtaining digital breast mammogram images from the digital database for screening mammography (DDSM), image preprocessing was performed. Then, by using image processing methods, an algorithm was developed for automatic extracting of masses from other norma...

A Self-Reconstructing Algorithm for Single and Multiple-Sensor Fault Isolation Based on Auto-Associative Neural Networks

Recently different approaches have been developed in the field of sensor fault diagnostics based on Auto-Associative Neural Network (AANN). In this paper we present a novel algorithm called Self reconstructing Auto-Associative Neural Network (S-AANN) which is able to detect and isolate single faulty sensor via reconstruction. We have also extended the algorithm to be applicable in multiple faul...

An Associative Classifier for Uncertain Datasets

The classification of uncertain datasets is an emerging research problem that has recently attracted significant attention. Some attempts to devise a classification model with uncertain training data have been proposed using decision trees, neural networks, or other approaches. Among those, the associative classifiers have inspired some of the uncertain classification algorithms given their pro...
