This work addresses the real time control of the Khepera mobile robot [1] navigation in a maze with reflector walls. Boolean Neural Networks such as RAM [2] and GSN [3] models are applied to drive the vehicle, following a light source, while avoiding obstacles. Both neural networks are implemented with simple logic and arithmetic functions (NOT, AND, OR, Addition, and Comparison), aiming to imp...

in this paper, a state-of-the-art neuron mathematical model of neural tensor network (ntn) is proposed to rdf knowledge base completion problem. one of the difficulties with the parameter of the network is that representation of its neuron mathematical model is not possible. for this reason, a new representation of this network is suggested that solves this difficulty. in the representation, th...

| Estimating the Skew Angle in text document images can be a crucial problem in Optical Character Recognition. Based on a new sensor array processing technique, an original solution to Skew Angle Estimation (SAE) is proposed. Thanks to the reformulation of the SAE problem in the framework of Angle of Arrival theory, a fast and accurate method is presented, that is based on the cooperation of tw...

Due to remarkable capabilities of artificial neural networks (ANNs) such as generalization and nonlinear system modeling, ANNs have been extensively studied and applied in a wide variety of applications (Amiri et al., 2007; Davande et al., 2008). The rapid development of ANN technology in recent years has led to an entirely new approach for the solution of many data processing-based problems, u...

This paper presents the application of three main Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) in damage detection of steel bridges. This method has the ability to indicate damage in structural elements due to a localized change of stiffness called damage zone. The changes in structural response is used to identify the states of structural damage. To circumvent the difficulty arising from the non-linear n...

Abstract A class of recurrent neural networks is developed to solve nonlinear equations, which are approximated by a multilayer perceptron (MLP). The recurrent network includes a linear Hopfield network (LHN) and the MLP as building blocks. This network inverts the original MLP using constrained linear optimization and Newton’s method for nonlinear systems. The solution of a nonlinear equation ...

A novel method to provide high-resolution TwoDimensional Direction of Arrival (2D DOA) estimation employing Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) is presented in this paper. The observed space is divided into azimuth and elevation sectors. Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) neural networks are employed to detect the presence of a source in a sector while Radial Basis Function (RBF) neural networks are uti...

Artificial neural networks (ANNs) provide a modeling approach that can be used in the vitro stages of probiotic studies. The aim study was to evaluate ability multilayer perceptron (MLP) and radial-basis function (RBF) ANNs predict inhibition level indicator bacteria co-culture experiments performed at various initial concentrations. In both types networks, time, concentrations L. lactis Aeromo...
