We propose a new optimizer in the context of multimodal image registration. The optimized criterion is the mutual information between the images to align. This criterion requires that their joint histogram be available. For its computation, we introduce differentiable and separable Parzen windows that satisfy the partition of unity. Along with a continuous model of the images based on splines, ...

In this paper, a Levenberg-Marquardt inspired sliding mode control theory based adaptation laws are proposed to train an intelligent fuzzy neural network controller for a quadrotor aircraft. The proposed controller is used to control and stabilize a quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle in the presence of periodic wind gust. A proportional-derivative controller is firstly introduced based on which ...

Arti3cial neural networks (ANNs) have recently gained attention as fast and 5exible vehicles to microwave modeling, simulation, and optimization. In this study, ANNs, based on the multilayer perceptron, were presented for accurate computation of the quasistatic parameters of asymmetric coplanar waveguides (ACPWs). Multilayer perceptron neural networks (MLPNNs) were trained with backpropagation,...

This work presents the results of the studies concerning the application of different neural network training algorithms to enhance the prediction of a radio network planning tool. Investigations are made on a hybrid model that combines the a-priori information in form of simulation results with the a-posteriori knowledge contained in measurement data. The performances of Back Propagation and L...

Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) measure brain signals activity, intentionally and unintentionally induced by users, and provides a communication channel without depending on the brain’s normal peripheral nerves and muscles output pathway. Feature Selection (FS) is a global optimization machine learning problem that reduces features, removes irrelevant and noisy data resulting in acceptable rec...

Increasing electricity demand in Java-Madura-Bali, Indonesia, must be addressed appropriately to avoid blackout by determining accurate peak load forecasting. Econometric approach may not be sufficient to handle this problem due to limitation in modelling nonlinear interaction of factors involved. To overcome this problem, Elman and Jordan Recurrent Neural Network based on Levenberg-Marquardt l...

The aim of this paper is to propose a new Kalman Filter Recurrent Neural Network (KFRNN) topology and a recursive Levenberg-Marquardt (L-M) algorithm of its learning capable to estimate states and parameters of a highly nonlinear Continuous Stirred Tank Bioreactor (CSTR) in noisy environment. The estimated parameters and states obtained by the proposed KFRNN identifier are used to design an ind...

We present regularization tools for training small, medium and large feed-forward artiicial neural networks. The determination of the weights leads to very ill-conditioned nonlinear least squares problems and regularization is often suggested to get control over the network complexity, small variance error, and to get a nice optimization problem. The algorithms proposed explicitly use a sequenc...

For managing data in a smart card’s limited memory, containing medical and biometric images, images compression is resorted to. For image retrieval, it is necessary that the classification algorithm be efficient to search and locate the image in a compressed domain. This study proposes a novel training algorithm for Multi-Layer Perceptron Neural Network (MLP-NN) to classify compressed images. M...

In this work, a recursive Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) learning algorithm in the complex domain is developed and applied to the learning of an adaptive control scheme composed by ComplexValued Recurrent Neural Networks (CVRNN). We simplified the derivation of the LM learning algorithm using a diagrammatic method to derive the adjoint CVRNN used to obtain the gradient terms. Furthermore, we apply th...
