By numbering objeet＇s border dements on spatial position, the border gap （BG） of inner pixel of the object is calculated; an 8-connected medial-axis hierarchy is derived by the BG; a thinning method including slicing and counting is proposed to improve the processing speed; branches with minor importance are truncated by vector diversity Vd and length-width ratio （LWR） with support vector machine （SVM） classifier. Experiments demonstrate that the derived skeletons keep good connectivity, especially in long and narrow area.展开更多

The output variables derived from multilayer perception can feedback to the network input layer to create a temporal relation between the current node inputs and the lagged node outputs while overcoming the limitation of memory which is a vital port for any time-series prediction application. The model can overcome the static prediction problem with most time series prediction models and can effectively cope with the dynamic properties of time series data. A linear and a nonlinear forecasting algorithms based on online extreme learning machine are proposed to implement the output feedback forecasting model. They are both recursive estimator and have two distinct phases： Predict and Update. The proposed model was tested against different kinds of time series data and the results indicate that the model outperforms the original static model without feedback.展开更多
