The Differential Evolution (DE) population-based algorithm is an optimal algorithm with powerful global searching capability, but it is usually in low convergence speed and presents bad searching capability in the later evolution stage. A new Chaos Differential Evolution algorithm (CDE) based on the cat map is proposed which combines DE and chaotic searching algorithm. Firstly, the chaotic dist...

INTRODUCTION Quantitative electrocardiographic (ECG) waveform analysis provides a noninvasive reflection of the metabolic milieu of the myocardium during resuscitation and is a potentially useful tool to optimize the defibrillation strategy. However, whether combining multiple ECG features can improve the capability of defibrillation outcome prediction in comparison to single feature analysis i...

This paper discusses work that has been done to enhance the prediction capability of a strictly frequency-based adaptive word prediction program used chiefly by persons with motoric and/or linguistic impairments.. The work involves a change to a probability-based system, extension of scope, and addition of grammatical, semantic and phrase information to the database. The new program is being in...

Advances in remote sensing technologies have made it possible to use high-resolution visual data for weather observation and forecasting tasks. We propose the use of multi-layer neural networks for understanding complex atmospheric dynamics based on multichannel satellite images. The capability of our model was evaluated by using a linear regression task for single typhoon coordinates predictio...

Results: We present an approach for endowing protein networks with interaction dependencies using propositional logic, thereby obtaining protein hypernetworks. First we demonstrate how this framework straightforwardly improves the prediction of protein complexes. Next we show that modeling protein perturbations in hypernetworks, rather than in networks, allows to better infer the functional nec...

The artificial neural networks (ANN) are the learning algorithms and mathematical models, which mimic the information processing ability of human brain and can be used to non linear and complex data. The aim of this study was to compare artificial neural network and regression models for prediction of body weight in Raini Cashmere goat. The data of 1389 goats for body weight, height at withers ...

The use of the SIMD (single instruction stream multiple data stream) mode of parallelism to perform the speech analysis task of linear predictive coding is explored. Linear prediction represents one of the major analysis techniques for speech compression, transmission, and recognition applications. Parallel algorithms to perform linear prediction have been developed, and are evaluated in terms ...

The prediction of elastic modulus is one of the fundamental facts of structural engineering studies. The performance of adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) for predicting the elastic modulus of normaland high-strength concrete was investigated. Results indicate that the proposed ANFIS modeling approach outperforms the other given models in terms of prediction capability. According to ...
