چکیده
We describe a neural network based vision system and a number of rule based expert systems for use in antibiotic sensitivity testing and reporting. The vision system detects bacterial growths on agar plates. The major expert system generates antibiotic treatment recommendations. The systems are embedded in the normal work ow of the laboratory. We also describe the embedding principles used and our development methodology.

Knowledge Extraction from the Neural ‘Black Box’ in Ecological Monitoring
Phytoplankton biomass within the Saginaw Bay ecosystem (Lake Huron, Michigan, USA) was characterized as a function of select physical/chemical indicators. The complexity and variability of ecological systems typically make it difficult to model the influences of anthropogenic stressors and/or natural disturbances. Here, Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) were developed to model chlorophyll a con...
متن کاملSteganalysis of embedding in difference of image pixel pairs by neural network
In this paper a steganalysis method is proposed for pixel value differencing method. This steganographic method, which has been immune against conventional attacks, performs the embedding in the difference of the values of pixel pairs. Therefore, the histogram of the differences of an embedded image is di_erent as compared with a cover image. A number of characteristics are identified in the di...
متن کاملOn the convergence speed of artificial neural networks in the solving of linear systems
Artificial neural networks have the advantages such as learning, adaptation, fault-tolerance, parallelism and generalization. This paper is a scrutiny on the application of diverse learning methods in speed of convergence in neural networks. For this aim, first we introduce a perceptron method based on artificial neural networks which has been applied for solving a non-singula...
متن کاملDynamic Sliding Mode Control of Nonlinear Systems Using Neural Networks
Dynamic sliding mode control (DSMC) of nonlinear systems using neural networks is proposed. In DSMC the chattering is removed due to the integrator which is placed before the input control signal of the plant. However, in DSMC the augmented system is one dimension bigger than the actual system i.e. the states number of augmented system is more than the actual system and then to control of such ...
متن کاملDistribution Systems Reconfiguration Using Pattern Recognizer Neural Networks
A novel intelligent neural optimizer with two objective functions is designed for electrical distribution systems. The presented method is faster than alternative optimization methods and is comparable with the most powerful and precise ones. This optimizer is much smaller than similar neural systems. In this work, two intelligent estimators are designed, a load flow program is coded, and a spe...
