– The problem of automatic signature recognition has received little attention in comparison with the problem of signature verification despite its potential applications for accessing security-sensitive facilities and for processing certain legal and historical documents. This paper presents an efficient off-line human signature recognition system based on Support Vector Machines (SVM) and com...

In this paper a Neural Networks (NN) is proposed for transient stability prediction. Transient stability of a power system is first determined based on the generator relative rotor angles procured from time domain simulation outputs. Simulations were carried out on a single machine infinite bus system by considering three phase short circuit fault on the system. The data collected from the time...

Learning behavior of simple perceptrons is analyzed for a teacher-student scenario in which output labels are provided by a teacher network for a set of possibly correlated input patterns, and such that teacher and student networks are of the same type. Our main concern is the effect of statistical correlations among the input patterns on learning performance. For this purpose, we extend to the...

In this paper, a key generation and certification technique using multilayer perceptron (KGCMLP) has been proposed in wireless communication of data/information. In this proposed KGCMLP technique both sender and receiver uses an identical multilayer perceptrons. Both perceptrons are start synchronization by exchanging some control frames. During synchronization process message integrity test an...

This paper presents an FPGA implementation of a 3-layer perceptron using the FDFM (Few DSP blocks and Few block RAMs) approach implemented in the Xilinx Virtex-6 family FPGA. In the FDFM approach, multiple processor cores with few DSP slices and few block RAMs are used. We have implemented 150 processor cores for perceptrons in a Xilinx Virtex-6 family FPGA XC6VLX240T-FF1156. The implementation...

In a recent work, the framework of Boosted Binary Features (BBF) was proposed for ASR. In this framework, a small set of localized binary-valued features are selected using the Discrete Adaboost algorithm. These features are then integrated into a standard HMM-based system using either single layer perceptrons (SLP) or multilayer perceptrons (MLP). The features were found to perform significant...

Accurate prediction of long-term electricity demand has a significant role in demand side management and electricity network planning and operation. Demand over-estimation results in over-investment in network assets, driving up the electricity prices, while demand underestimation may lead to under-investment resulting in unreliable and insecure electricity. In this manuscript, we apply deep ne...

We explicitly analyze the trajectories of learning near singularities in hierarchical networks, such as multilayer perceptrons and radial basis function networks, which include permutation symmetry of hidden nodes, and show their general properties. Such symmetry induces singularities in their parameter space, where the Fisher information matrix degenerates and odd learning behaviors, especiall...

The problem of selecting the best set of features for target recognition using a multilayer perceptron is addressed in this paper. A technique has been developed which analyzes the weights in a multilayer perceptron to determine which features the network finds important and which are unimportant. A brief introduction to the use of multilayer perceptrons for classification and the training rule...

When a parameter space has a certain underlying structure, the ordinary gradient of a function does not represent its steepest direction but the natural gradient does. Information geometry is used for calculating the natural gradients in the parameter space of perceptrons, the space of matrices (for blind source separation) and the space of linear dynamical systems (for blind source deconvoluti...
