Discrete wavelet transform-based RI adaptive algorithm for system identification

10.11591/ijece.v10i3.pp2383-2391
Mohammad Shukri Salman , Alaa Eleyan , Bahaa Al-Sheikh
In this paper, we propose a new adaptive filtering algorithm for system identification. The algorithm is based on the recursive inverse (RI) adaptive algorithm which suffers from low convergence rates in some applications; i.e., the eigenvalue spread of the autocorrelation matrix is relatively high. The proposed algorithm applies discrete-wavelet transform (DWT) to the input signal which, in turn, helps to overcome the low convergence rate of the RI algorithm with relatively small step-size(s). Different scenarios has been investigated in different noise environments in system identification setting. Experiments demonstrate the advantages of the proposed DWT recursive inverse (DWT-RI) filter in terms of convergence rate and mean-square-error (MSE) compared to the RI, discrete cosine transform LMS (DCTLMS), discrete-wavelet transform LMS (DWT-LMS) and recursive-least-squares (RLS) algorithms under same conditions.

The initialization stage12 of a Soft Computing (SC) algorithm is vital as it affects the success rate of algorithms in solving multi-peak global optimization problems. The individuals in an initial population, which are known as search agents, are often generated randomly using pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) due to unavailability of prior information on the location of global peak (GP). The random nature of the generated search agents causes uneven distribution of the initial population over the search space (SS), which may lead the search towards unpromising regions from the very beginning. This paper proposes a new deterministic initialization method (DIM) for SC algorithms where search agents are evenly fixed in the SS by using a simple deterministic formulation. The performance of the proposed DIM is then compared to the conventional PRNG and more recent quasi-random number generator (QRNG). An optimization case study is carried out using two popular SC algorithms which are the Particle Swarm Algorithm (PSO) and the Evolutionary Programming (EP), and three relatively new SC algorithms which are the Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA), the Elephant Herding Optimization (EHO), and the Butterfly Optimization Algorithm (BOA). The optimization is done on various one-dimensional (1D) benchmark functions, as well as practical problems such as partial shading condition (PSC). Simulation results show that the proposed DIM successfully improved the performance of each SC algorithm under study in solving almost all tested functions with 99% success rate compared to 88.7% and 80.2% for the QRNG and PRNG approaches respectively. Furthermore, the WOA is the most reliable and robust among the five SC techniques under study with a success

Convolutional recurrent neural network with template based representation for complex question answering

10.11591/ijece.v10i3.pp2710-2718
A. Chandra Obula Reddy , K. Madhavi
Complex Question answering system is developed to answer different types of questions accurately. Initially the question from the natural language is transformed to an internal representation which captures the semantics and intent of the question. In the proposed work, internal representation is provided with templates instead of using synonyms or keywords. Then for each internal representation, it is mapped to relevant query against the knowledge base. In present work, the Template representation based Convolutional Recurrent Neural Network (T-CRNN) is proposed for selecting answer in Complex Question Answering (CQA) framework. Recurrent neural network is used to obtain the exact correlation between answers and questions and the semantic matching among the collection of answers. Initially, the process of learning is accomplished through Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) which represents the questions and answers separately. Then the representation with fixed length is produced for each question with the help of fully connected neural network. In order to design the semantic matching between the answers, the representation of Question Answer (QA) pair is given into the Recurrent Neural Network (RNN). Finally, for the given question, the correctly correlated answers are identified with the softmax classifier.

Innovative tactics are employed by terrorists to conceal weapons and explosives to perpetrate violent attacks, accounting for the deaths of millions of lives every year and contributing to huge economic losses to the global society. Achieving a high threat detection rate during an inspection of crowds to recognize and detect threat elements from a secure distance is the motivation for the development of intelligent image data analysis from a machine learning perspective. A method proposed to reduce the image dimensions with support vector, linearity and orthogonal. The functionality of CWD is contingent upon the plenary characterization of fusion data from multiple image sensors. The proposed method combines multiple sensors by hybrid fusion of sigmoidal Hadamard wavelet transform and PCA basis functions. Weapon recognition and the detection system, using Image segmentation and K means support vector machine A classifier is an autonomous process for the recognition of threat weapons regardless of make, variety, shape, or position on the suspect’s body despite concealment.

The posture monitoring system monitors the posture changes of the upper body and the spinal cord applying to ophthalmologists while operating the slit lamp. The motivation to the pursuit of this system is to relate posture changes while in a static sitting posture to the spinal deviation from the g-line. Often times, the spinal deviation from the g-line is classified as bad posture because of the shift in weight distribution on the spine causing pain and discomfort in certain areas of the spine. This paper presents the design concept, the development process and the working principle of the posture monitoring system using Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) sensor. The raw measurement data obtained from human trials is tabulated and converted into a graphical representation in which all postures can be identified and distinguished by referring the relative wave pattern. The procedure is important in the improvement on the posture monitoring system for the human trials on the ophthalmologist in future.

Quantum algorithms are well-known for their quadratic if not exponential speedup over their classical counterparts. The two widely-known quantum algorithms are Shor’s quantum factoring algorithm and Grover’s quantum search algorithm. Shor’s quantum factoring algorithm could perform integer factorization in O(logN). Grover’s quantum search algorithm could solve the unsorted search problem in O(√N). However, both algorithms are introduced as theoretical concepts in the original papers due to the limitations of quantum technology at that time. In this paper, an improved way is presented to realize the two algorithms into a web application using state-of-the-art quantum technology. The web-app is designed and built considering the uses of a quantum simulator and libraries provided by ProjectQ and Rigetti Forest. The result shows that both algorithms are realizable into web-applications.
