To cope with the requirements for high response and precision, advanced feedforward controllers such as gravity compensator, Coriolis/centrifugal force compensator and friction compensators have been built in the controller. Generally, it causes heavy computational load when calculating the compensating value within a short sampling period. In this paper, integrated recurrent neural networks are applied as a feedforward controller for PUMA560 manipulator. The feedforward controller works instead of gravity and Coriolis/centrifugal force compensators. In the learning process of the neural network by using back propagation algorithm, the learning coefficient and gain of sigmoid function are tuned intuitively and empirically according to teaching signals. The tuning is complicated because it is being conducted by trial and error. Especially, when the scale of teaching signal is large, the problem becomes crucial. To cope with the problem which concerns the learning performance, a simple and adaptive learning technique for large scale teaching signals is proposed. The learning techniques and control effectiveness are evaluated through simulations using the dynamic model of PUMA560 manipulator.展开更多

Unlike the dynamic gradient methods, such as the backpropagation through time and the real time recurrent learning, the weights of the recurrent neural networks were updated online in terms of Lyapunov stability theory in the proposed learning algorithm, so the learning stability was guaranteed. With the inversion of the activation function of the recurrent neural networks, the proposed learning algorithm can be easily implemented for solving varying nonlinear adaptive learning problems and fast convergence of the adaptive learning process can be achieved. Simulation experiments in pattern recognition show that only 5 iterations are needed for the storage of a 15×15 binary image pattern and only 9 iterations are needed for the perfect realization of an analog vector by an equilibrium state with the proposed learning algorithm.展开更多

The nodes are modeled by the Gaussian mixture model. The connectivity between nodes is judged by their cross-correlation function, which is also used to calculate their transition time distribution. The mutual information of the connected node pair is employed for transition probability calculation. A false link eliminating approach is proposed, along with a topology updating strategy to improve the learned topology. A real monitoring system with five disjoint cameras is built for experiments. Comparative results with traditional methods show that the proposed method is more accurate in topology learning and is more robust to environmental changes.展开更多

Each space corresponds to a distance metric defined on the sample attributes, and thus finding a suitable space can be converted to develop an effective distance metric. Most existing dimensionality reduction methods use a fixed pre-specified distance metric. However, this easy treatment has some limitations in practice due to the fact the pre-specified metric is not going to warranty that the closest samples are the truly similar ones. In this paper, we present an adaptive metric learning method for dimensionality reduction, called AML. The adaptive metric learning model is developed by maximizing the difference of the distances between the data pairs in cannot-links and those in must-links. Different from many existing papers that use the traditional Euclidean distance, we use the more generalized l<sub>2,p</sub>-norm distance to reduce sensitivity to noise and outliers, which incorporates additional flexibility and adaptability due to the selection of appropriate p-values for different data sets. Moreover, considering traditional metric learning methods usually project samples into a linear subspace, which is overstrict. We extend the basic linear method to a more powerful nonlinear kernel case so that well capturing complex nonlinear relationship between data. To solve our objective, we have derived an efficient iterative algorithm. Extensive experiments for dimensionality reduction are provided to demonstrate the superiority of our method over state-of-the-art approaches.展开更多

A false link eliminating approach is proposed, along with a topology updating strategy to improve the learned topology. A real monitoring system with five disjoint cameras is built for experiments. Comparative results with traditional methods show that the proposed method is more accurate in topology learning and is more robust to environmental changes.

文摘Intrusion detection involves identifying unauthorized network activity and recognizing whether the data constitute an abnormal network transmission.Recent research has focused on using semi-supervised learning mechanisms to identify abnormal network traffic to deal with labeled and unlabeled data in the industry.However,real-time training and classifying network traffic pose challenges,as they can lead to the degradation of the overall dataset and difficulties preventing attacks.Additionally,existing semi-supervised learning research might need to analyze the experimental results comprehensively.This paper proposes XA-GANomaly,a novel technique for explainable adaptive semi-supervised learning using GANomaly,an image anomalous detection model that dynamically trains small subsets to these issues.First,this research introduces a deep neural network(DNN)-based GANomaly for semi-supervised learning.Second,this paper presents the proposed adaptive algorithm for the DNN-based GANomaly,which is validated with four subsets of the adaptive dataset.Finally,this study demonstrates a monitoring system that incorporates three explainable techniques—Shapley additive explanations,reconstruction error visualization,and t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding—to respond effectively to attacks on traffic data at each feature engineering stage,semi-supervised learning,and adaptive learning.Compared to other single-class classification techniques,the proposed DNN-based GANomaly achieves higher scores for Network Security Laboratory-Knowledge Discovery in Databases and UNSW-NB15 datasets at 13%and 8%of F1 scores and 4.17%and 11.51%for accuracy,respectively.Furthermore,experiments of the proposed adaptive learning reveal mostly improved results over the initial values.An analysis and monitoring system based on the combination of the three explainable methodologies is also described.Thus,the proposed method has the potential advantages to be applied in practical industry,and future research will explore handling unbalanced real-time datasets in various scenarios.

文摘Adaptive learning paths provide individual learning objectives that best match a learner’s characteristics.This is especially helpful when learners need to balance limited available learning time and multiple learning objectives.The automatic generation of personalized learning paths to improve learning efficiency has therefore attracted significant interest.However,most current research only focuses on providing learners with adaptive objects and sequences according to their own interests or learning goals given a normal amount of time or ordinary conditions.There is little research that can help learners to obtain the most important knowledge for a test in the shortest time possible,which is a typical scenario in exanimation-oriented education systems.This study aims to solve this problem by introducing a new approach that builds on existing methods.First,the eight properties in Gardner’s multiple intelligence theory are introduced into the present knowledge and learner models to define the relationship between learning objects(LOs)and learners,thereby improving recommendation accuracy rates.Then,a novel adaptive learning path recommendation model is presented where viable knowledge topologies,knowledge bases and the previously-established properties relating to a learner’s ability are combined by Dempster-Shafer(D-S)evidence theory.A series of practical experiments were performed to assess the approach’s adaptability,the appropriateness of the selected evidence and the effectiveness of the recommendations.In the results,it was found that the proposed learning path recommendation model helped learners learn the most important elements and obtain superior test grades when confronted with limited time for learning.
文摘Finding a suitable space is one of the most critical problems for dimensionality reduction. Each space corresponds to a distance metric defined on the sample attributes, and thus finding a suitable space can be converted to develop an effective distance metric. Most existing dimensionality reduction methods use a fixed pre-specified distance metric. However, this easy treatment has some limitations in practice due to the fact the pre-specified metric is not going to warranty that the closest samples are the truly similar ones. In this paper, we present an adaptive metric learning method for dimensionality reduction, called AML. The adaptive metric learning model is developed by maximizing the difference of the distances between the data pairs in cannot-links and those in must-links. Different from many existing papers that use the traditional Euclidean distance, we use the more generalized l<sub>2,p</sub>-norm distance to reduce sensitivity to noise and outliers, which incorporates additional flexibility and adaptability due to the selection of appropriate p-values for different data sets. Moreover, considering traditional metric learning methods usually project samples into a linear subspace, which is overstrict. We extend the basic linear method to a more powerful nonlinear kernel case so that well capturing complex nonlinear relationship between data. To solve our objective, we have derived an efficient iterative algorithm. Extensive experiments for dimensionality reduction are provided to demonstrate the superiority of our method over state-of-the-art approaches.

文摘It can be challenging to detect tumor margins during surgery for complete resection.The purpose of this work is to develop a novel learning method that learns the difference between the tumor and benign tissue adaptively for cancer detection on hyperspectral images in an animal model.Specifically,an auto-encoder network is trained based on the wavelength bands on hyperspectral images to extract the deep information to create a pixel-wise prediction of cancerous and benign pixel.According to the output hypothesis of each pixel,the misclassified pixels would be reclassified in the right prediction direction based on their adaptive weights.The auto-encoder network is again trained based on these updated pixels.The learner can adaptively improve the ability to identify the cancer and benign tissue by focusing on the misclassified pixels,and thus can improve the detection performance.The adaptive deep learning method highlighting the tumor region proved to be accurate in detecting the tumor boundary on hyperspectral images and achieved a sensitivity of 92.32%and a specificity of 91.31%in our animal experiments.This adaptive learning method on hyperspectral imaging has the potential to provide a noninvasive tool for tumor detection,especially,for the tumor whose margin is indistinct and irregular.

文摘Traditional track dynamic geometric state(TDGS)simulation incurs substantial computational burdens,posing challenges for developing reliability assessment approach that accounts for TDGS.To overcome these,firstly,a simulation-based TDGS model is established,and a surrogate-based model,grid search algorithm-particle swarm optimization-genetic algorithm-multi-output least squares support vector regression,is established.Among them,hyperparameter optimization algorithm’s effectiveness is confirmed through test functions.Subsequently,an adaptive surrogate-based probability density evolution method(PDEM)considering random track geometry irregularity(TGI)is developed.Finally,taking curved train-steel spring floating slab track-U beam as case study,the surrogate-based model trained on simulation datasets not only shows accuracy in both time and frequency domains,but also surpasses existing models.Additionally,the adaptive surrogate-based PDEM shows high accuracy and efficiency,outperforming Monte Carlo simulation and simulation-based PDEM.The reliability assessment shows that the TDGS part peak management indexes,left/right vertical dynamic irregularity,right alignment dynamic irregularity,and track twist,have reliability values of 0.9648,0.9918,0.9978,and 0.9901,respectively.The TDGS mean management index,i.e.,track quality index,has reliability value of 0.9950.These findings show that the proposed framework can accurately and efficiently assess the reliability of curved low-stiffness track-viaducts,providing a theoretical basis for the TGI maintenance.
