چکیده

Over the last few years, artificial neural networks (ANNs) have been used successfully for modeling almost all aspects of geotechnical engineering problems. Whilst ANNs provide a great deal of promise, they suffer from a number of shortcomings such as knowledge extraction, extrapolation and uncertainty. This paper presents a state-of-the-art examination of ANNs in geotechnical engineering and provides insights into the modeling issues of ANNs. The paper also discusses current research directions of ANNs that need further attention in the future.

Use of Artificial Neural Networks and PCA to Predict Results of Infertility Treatment in the ICSI Method

Background: Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) or microinjection is one of the most commonly used assisted reproductive technologies (ART) in the treatment of patients with infertility problems. At each stage of this treatment cycle, many dependent and independent variables may affect the results, according to which, estimating the accuracy of fertility rate for physicians will be difficul...

Robust Backstepping Control of Induction Motor Drives Using Artificial Neural Networks and Sliding Mode Flux Observers

In this paper, using the three-phase induction motor fifth order model in a stationary twoaxis reference frame with stator current and rotor flux as state variables, a conventional backsteppingcontroller is first designed for speed and rotor flux control of an induction motor drive. Then in orderto make the control system stable and robust against all electromechanical parameter uncertainties a...

The Application of Multi-Layer Artificial Neural Networks in Speckle Reduction (Methodology)

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) uses the spatial and temporal coherence properties of optical waves backscattered from a tissue sample to form an image. An inherent characteristic of coherent imaging is the presence of speckle noise. In this study we use a new ensemble framework which is a combination of several Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) neural networks to denoise OCT images. The noise is...
