simulation of groundwater fluctuations plays a crucial role in management of watersheds and water demand balancing. recently, wavelet analysis has been used widely in time series decomposition and coupling with neural networks for hydrological modeling. in this paper, the ability of the wavelet-dynamic artificial neural networks (w-ann) model was applied in forecasting one-month-ahead of ground...

Ahsrr-ucr-This paper describes the application of an artificial neural network (ANN) technique together with a feature extraction technique, viz., the wavelet transform, for the classification of EEG signals. Three classes of EEG signals were used: Normal, Schizophrenia (SCH), and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). The architecture of the artificial neural network used in the classification i...

Introduction: Visual evoked potentials contain certain diagnostic information which have proved to be of importance in the visual systems functional integrity. Due to substantial decrease of amplitude in extra macular stimulation in commonly used pattern VEPs, differentiating normal and abnormal signals can prove to be quite an obstacle. Due to developments of use of machine l...

introduction: evoked potentials arisen by stimulating the brain can be utilized as a communication tool  between humans and machines. most brain-computer interface (bci) systems use the p300 component,  which is an evoked potential. in this paper, we evaluate the use of the hidden markov model (hmm) for  detection of p300.  materials and methods: the wavelet transforms, wavelet-enhanced indepen...

Based on the multi-time scale and the nonlinear characteristics of the observed time series, a new hybrid model between wavelet analysis and artificial neural network (ANN): wavelet network model, has been suggested. The present model absorbs some merits of wavelet transform and artificial neural network. Case studies, the short and long term prediction of hydrological time series, have been re...

recent studies on wavelet transform and fractal modeling applied on mammograms for the detection of cancerous tissues indicate that microcalcifications and masses can be utilized for the study of the morphology and diagnosis of cancerous cases. it is shown that the use of fractal modeling, as applied to a given image, can clearly discern cancerous zones from noncancerous areas. in this paper, f...

A new method based on principal component analysis (PCA) and artificial neural networks (ANN) is proposed for fault diagnosis of gearboxes. Firstly the six different base wavelets are considered, in which three are from real valued and other three from complex valued. Two wavelet selection criteria Maximum Energy to Shannon Entropy ratio and Maximum Relative Wavelet Energy are used and compared...

Accurate groundwater level modeling and forecasting contribute to civil projects, land use, citys planning and water resources management. Combined Wavelet-Artificial Neural Network (WANN) model has been widely used in recent years to forecast hydrological and hydrogeological phenomena. This study investigates the sensitivity of the pre-processing to the wavelet type and decomposition level in ...

Artificial neural network (ANN) has application in communication engineering in diverse areas such as channel equalization, channel modeling, error control code because of its capability of nonlinear processing, adaptability, and parallel processing. On the other hand, wavelet transform (WT) with both the time and the frequency resolution provides the exact representation of signal in both doma...

This paper presents an efficient wavelet and neural network (WNN) based approach for distinguishing magnetizing inrush currents from internal fault currents in three phase power transformers. The wavelet transform is applied first to decompose the current signals of the power transformer into a series of detailed wavelet components. The values of the detailed coefficients obtained can discrimin...
