Comparison of Micro X-ray Computer Tomography Image Segmentation Methods: Artificial Neural Networks Versus Least Square Support Vector Machine

2013

Micro X-ray computer tomography (XCT) is a powerful non-destructive method for obtaining information about rock structures and mineralogy. A new methodology to obtain porosity from 2D XCT digital images using artificial neural network and least square support vector machine is demonstrated following these steps: the XCT image was first preprocessed, thereafter clustering algorithms such as K-means, Fuzzy c-means and self-organized maps was used for image segmentation. Then artificial neural network was applied for image classification. For comparison, least square support vector machine approach was used for classification labeling of the scan images. The methodology shows how artificial ne…

Structural Health Monitoring Procedure for Composite Structures through the use of Artifcial Neural Networks

2015

In this paper different architectures of Artifcial Neural Networks (ANNs) for structural damage detection are studied. The main objective is to investigate an ANN able to detect and localize damage without any prior knowledge on its characteristics so as to serve as a real-time data processor for Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) systems. Two different architectures are studied: the standard feed-forward Multi Layer Perceptron (MLP) and the Radial Basis Function (RBF) ANNs. The training data are given, in terms of a Damage Index =D, properly defined using a piezoelectric sensor signal output to obtain suitable information on the damage position and dimensions. The electromechanical respons…

Knowledge Acquisition in Conceptual Ontological Artificial Intelligence System

2009

The paper deals with active knowledge acquisition based on dialogue between AI system and its user. Presented method uses Conceptual Ontological Object Orientated System (COOS) to distinguish differences between concepts and to unequivocally process the input stream. In case of concepts, that do not exist in the system yet, adequate algorithms are being used to position them in ontological core. Separate concepts differ in attributes values or in sets of direct connections with other concepts. The communication aspect of the system deliver information that allow generating proper interpretation for userpsilas statement.

Arguably, it has also served as the foundation for the phenomenon and field of reinforcement learning (RL). Over the decades, new concepts and fundamental principles have been introduced t…

Artificial Neural Networks to correlate Hot Deformation Cooling Rate and Deformation Temperature on Continuous Cooling Transformation of 22MnB5 Steel

2016

The 22MnB5 steel is a hot stamping steel developed with the aim to satisfy the increasing request of the automotive industries to apply materials able to guarantee higher passive safety and weight reduction. The hot stamping process is an innovative forming technique in which the deformations are carried out at elevated temperature and allows to achieve high strength components. The experimental characterization of the material response, at different values of the main variables of process, may result both expensive and time consuming, but the mutual effects evaluation of the deformation parameters and the phase transformations are necessary to produce components within the desired properti…

An ANN model to correlate roughness and structural performance in asphalt pavements

2017

Abstract In this paper, using a large database from the Long Term Pavement Performance program, the authors developed an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to estimate the structural performance of asphalt pavements from roughness data. Considering advantages of modern high-performance survey devices in the acquisition of road pavement functional parameters, it would be of practical significance if the structural state of a pavement could be estimated from its functional conditions. To differentiate various road section conditions, several significant input parameters, related to traffic, weather, and structural aspects, have been included in the analysis. The results are very interesting and …

Error-Based Interference Detection in WiFi Networks

2017

In this paper we show that inter-technology interference can be recognized by commodity WiFi devices by monitoring the statistics of receiver errors. Indeed, while for WiFi standard frames the error probability varies during the frame reception in different frame fields (PHY, MAC headers, payloads) protected with heterogeneous coding, errors may appear randomly at any point during the time the demodulator is trying to receive an exogenous interfering signal. We thus detect and identify cross-technology interference on off-the-shelf WiFi cards by monitoring the sequence of receiver errors (bad PLCP, bad PCS, invalid headers, etc.) and develop an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to recognize t…
