A complex valued neural network is a neural network, which consists of complex valued input and/or weights and/or thresh olds and/or activation functions. Complex-valued neural networks have been widening the scope of applications not only in electronics and informatics, but also in social systems. One of the most important applications of the complex valued neural network is in image and visio...

Given the fact that neural networks have been widely reported in the research community of medical imaging, we provide a focused literature survey on recent neural network developments in computeraided diagnosis, medical image segmentation and edge detection toward visual content analysis, and medical image registration for its pre-processing and post processing, with the aim of increasing awar...

The recognition of optical characters is known to be one of the earliest applications of Artificial Neural Networks, which partially emulate human thinking in the domain of Artificial Intelligence. The current paper focuses on the use of neural network in order to mitigate the problems of digital handwriting recognition by using Self-Organizing Map model for fast processing and less processing ...

Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) have proved effective at one dimensional sequence learning tasks, such as speech and online handwriting recognition. Some of the properties that make RNNs suitable for such tasks, for example robustness to input warping, and the ability to access contextual information, are also desirable in multidimensional domains. However, there has so far been no direct way ...

Matching two texts is a fundamental problem in many natural language processing tasks. An effective way is to extract meaningful matching patterns from words, phrases, and sentences to produce the matching score. Inspired by the success of convolutional neural network in image recognition, where neurons can capture many complicated patterns based on the extracted elementary visual patterns such...

ConvNets, or Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), are state-of-the-art classification algorithms, achieving near-human performance in visual recognition [1]. New trends such as augmented reality demand always-on visual processing in wearable devices. Yet, advanced ConvNets achieving high recognition rates are too expensive in terms of energy as they require substantial data movement and billion...

high processing loads, need for complicated and frequent updating, and high false alarm are some of the challenges in designing anomaly detection and misuse detection systems. we propose a new network-based intrusion detection system (ids) that resolves such shortcomings. our scheme fuses anomaly detection and misuse detection systems, which has not been utilized so far in existing systems. in ...

A combined neurophysiological and computational approach is reviewed that leads to a proposal for how neural networks in the temporal cortical visual areas of primates could function to produce invariant object representation and identification. A similar approach is then reviewed which leads to a theory of how the hippocampus could rapidly store memories, especially episodic memories including...

Foliage diseases in plants can cause a reduction in both quality and quantity of agricultural production. Intelligent detection of plant diseases is an essential research topic as it may help monitoring large fields of crops by automatically detecting the symptoms of foliage diseases. This work investigates ways to recognize the late blight disease from the analysis of tomato digital images, co...

Accelerating deep neural networks (DNNs) has been attracting increasing attention as it can benefit a wide range of applications, e.g., enabling mobile systems with limited computing resources to own powerful visual recognition ability. A practical strategy to this goal usually relies on a two-stage process: operating on the trained DNNs (e.g., approximating the convolutional filters with tenso...
