Infrared monitor images of pulverized and block coal were sampled in the roadway of a coal mine. Texture statistics from the grey level dependence matrix were selected as the criterion for classification. The distributions of the texture statistics were calculated and analysed. A normalizing function was added to the front end of the BP network with one hidden layer. An additional classification layer is joined behind the linear layer. The recognition of pulverized from block coal images was tested using the improved BP network. The results of the experiment show that texture variables from the grey level dependence matrix can act as recognizable features of the image. The innovative improved BP network can then recognize the pulverized and block coal images.展开更多

Methods A three-layer BP network was built to simulate topology and process of the eco-economy system of Xiangfan. Historical data of ecological environmental factors and socio-economic factors as inputs, and corresponding historical data of ecosystem service value (ESV) and GDP as target outputs, were presented to train and test the network. When predicted input data after 2001 were presented to trained network as generalization sets, ESVs and GDPs of 2002, 2003, 2004... till 2050 were simulated as output in succession. Results Up to 2050, the area would have suffered an accumulative total ESV loss of RMB 104.9 billion, which accounted for 37.36% of the present ESV. The coinstantaneous GDP would change asynchronously with ESV, it would go through an up-to-down process and finally lose RMB89.3 billion, which accounted for 18.71% of 2001. Conclusions The simulation indicates that ESV loss means damage to the capability of socio-economic sustainable development, and suggests that artificial neural networks (ANNs) provide a feasible and effective method and have an important potential in ESV modeling.展开更多

Results showed that MBPNNM, which exhibited a strong capability of nonlinear mapping, allowed the water depth information in the study area to be retrieved at a relatively high level of accuracy. Affected by the sediment concentration of water in the estuary, MBPNNM enabled the retrieval of water depth of less than 5 meters accurately. However, the accuracy was not ideal for the water depths of more than 10 meters.展开更多

In order to be utilized in other projects, such as ocean engineering, the image needs to be classified according to the distributions of different classes of seabed materials. In this paper, seabed image is classified according to BP neural network, and. Genetic Algorithm is adopted in train network in this paper. The feature vectors are average intensity, six statistics of texture and two dimensions of fractal. It considers not only the spatial correlation between different pixels, but also the terrain coarseness. The texture is denoted by the statistics of the co-occurrence matrix. Double Blanket algorithm is used to calculate dimension. Because a uniform fractal may not be sufficient to describe a seafloor, two dimensions are calculated respectively by the upper blanket and the lower blanket. However, in sonar image, fractal has directivity, i. e. there are different dimensions in different direction. Dimensions are different in acrosstrack and alongtrack, so the average of four directions is used to solve this problem. Finally, the real data verify the algorithm. In this paper, one hidden layer including six nodes is adopted. The BP network is rapidly and accurately convergent through GA. Correct classification rate is 92.5 % in the result.展开更多

The BP neural network was trained separately by the three functions, trainbr, traingdm and trainlm, in order to identify the concentration of mixed pernicious gases composed of ammonia gas and hepatic gas.

These data provide a reference for intelligent monitoring of pemicious gases in pigsty.展开更多
