Deep neural networks (DNNs) have demonstrated remarkable success across a wide range of machine learning tasks. However, determining an effective network architecture, particularly the sizes of the hidden layers, remains a significant challenge and often relies on inefficient trial-and-error experimentation. In this paper, we propose an automated architecture design approach based on structurally adaptive DNNs,…

Being known as an irreversible neurodegenerative disease which has no cure to date, detection and classification of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) in its early stages is significant so that the deterioration process can be slowed down. Generally, AD can be classified into three major stages, ranging from the “normal control” stage with no symptoms shown, the…

The use of a battery to power an electrical or electronic system is accompanied by battery management, i.e. a set of measures intended to preserve it for preventative maintenance, thus the cost reduction. This management is generally based on two key parameters, the (remaining useful life) RUL and the (State-of-health) SOH, which relate respectively to…

In the time past, virtually all the contemporary communication systems depend on distinct source and channel encoding schemes for data transmission. Irrespective of the recorded success of the distinct schemes, the new developed scheme known as joint source channel coding technique has proven to have technically outperformed the conventional schemes. The aim of the study…

The main purpose in this work is to explore the fact that chaos, as a biological characteristic in the brain, should be used in an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) system. In fact, as long as chaos is present in brain functionalities, its properties need empirical investigations to show their potential to enhance accuracies in artificial…

Therefore, this study tries to benefit using information in data base of cardiac arrhythmia and employ arterial intelligent and neural network, in order to…

Analysis and classification of lung diseases using X-ray images is a primary step in the procedure of pneumonia diagnosis, especially in a critical period as pandemic of COVID-19 that is type of pneumonia. Therefore, an automatic method with high accuracy of classification is needed to perform classification of lung diseases due to the increasing number…

Restoring, estimating the fully 3D hand skeleton and pose from the image data of the captured sensors/cameras applied in many applications of computer vision and robotics: human-computer interaction; gesture recognition, interactive games, Computer-Aided Design (CAD), sign languages, action recognition, etc. These are applications that flourish in Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality (VR/AR) technologies. Previous survey…

Time-series is a sequence of observations that are taken sequentially over time. Modelling a system that generates a future value from past observations is considered as time-series forecasting system. Recurrent neural network is a machine learning method that is widely used in the prediction of future values. Due to variant improvements on recurrent neural networks,…

Recurrent Neural Networks has been widely used by researchers in the domain of weather prediction. Weather Prediction is forecasting the atmosphere for the future. In this proposed paper, Deep LSTM networks has been implemented which is the variant of RNNs having additional memory block and gates making them capable of remembering long term dependencies. Fifteen…

In order to further improve the feature extraction performance of the convolutional neural networks, we focus on the selection and reorganization of key features and suspect that simple changes in the pooling layers can cause changes in the performance of neural networks. According to the conjecture, we design a funnel convolution module, which can filter…

Classification of EEG signals in self-paced Brain Computer Interfaces (BCI) is an extremely challenging task. The main difficulty stems from the fact that start time of a control task is not defined. Therefore it is imperative to exploit the characteristics of the EEG data to the extent possible. In sensory motor self-paced BCIs, while performing…

Modeling of direct expansion (DX) air conditioning and heat pump systems can be necessary in developing energy saving methods required to reduce energy consumption in buildings. The artificial neural networks (ANN) can be simple and reliable as compared to traditional methods. A properly trained artificial neural network can provide accurate results, while being relatively straightforward…

Skin cancer stands among some of the fastest growing and fatal malignancies of the world as a result early and accurate diagnosis of skin cancer is essential in order to enhance patient survival and treatment prognosis. Conventional methods of diagnosis including dermoscopy and histopathological examinations are expensive and time consuming also subject to inter-observer error.…

As models based in artificial intelligence increase in sophistication, there is a higher demand for the integration of hardware components to heighten real-world implementations. Both facial feature tracking and shape-from-focus are known techniques in computer vision. However, the combination of these two elements, particularly in a cost-effective configuration, has not been extensively explored. In this…

This manuscript offers an in-depth analysis of Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI), em- phasizing its crucial role in developing transparent and ethically compliant AI systems. It traces AI’s evolution from basic algorithms to complex systems capable of autonomous de- cisions with self-explanation. The paper distinguishes between explainability—making AI decision processes understandable to humans—and interpretability, which provides…

The advent of laparoscopic surgery has increased the need to incorporate simulator-based training into traditional training programs to improve resident training and feedback. However, current training methods rely on expert surgeons to evaluate the dexterity of trainees, a time-consuming and subjective process. Through this research, we aim to extend the use of object detection in…
