The healthcare data requires accurate disease detection analysis,real-timemonitoring,and advancements to ensure proper treatment for patients.Consequently,Machine Learning methods are widely utilized in Smart Healthcare Systems(SHS)to extract valuable features fromheterogeneous and high-dimensional healthcare data for predicting various diseases and monitoring patient activities.These methods are employed across different domains that are susceptible to adversarial attacks,necessitating careful consideration.Hence,this paper proposes a crossover-based Multilayer Perceptron(CMLP)model.The collected samples are pre-processed and fed into the crossover-based multilayer perceptron neural network to detect adversarial attacks on themedical records of patients.Once an attack is detected,healthcare professionals are promptly alerted to prevent data leakage.The paper utilizes two datasets,namely the synthetic dataset and the University of Queensland Vital Signs(UQVS)dataset,from which numerous samples are collected.Experimental results are conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed CMLP model,utilizing various performancemeasures such as Recall,Precision,Accuracy,and F1-score to predict patient activities.Comparing the proposed method with existing approaches,it achieves the highest accuracy,precision,recall,and F1-score.Specifically,the proposedmethod achieves a precision of 93%,an accuracy of 97%,an F1-score of 92%,and a recall of 92%.

Preliminary Biometrics of ECG Signal Based on Temporal Organization through the Implementation of a Multilayer Perceptron Neural Network

The attributes of the ECG signal signifying the unique electrical properties of the heart offer the opportunity to expand the realm of biometrics, which pertains the identification of an individual based on physical characteristics. The temporal organization of the ECG signal offers a basis for composing a machine learning feature set. The four attributes of the feature set are derived through software automation enabled by Python. These four attributes are the temporal differential of the P wave maximum and T wave maximum relative to the R wave maximum and the Q wave minimum and S wave minimum relative to the R wave maximum. The multilayer perceptron neural network was applied and evaluated in terms of classification accuracy and time to develop the model. Superior performance was achieved with respect to a reduced feature set considering only the temporal differential of the P wave maximum and T wave maximum relative to the R wave maximum by comparison to all four attributes applied to the feature set and the temporal differential of the Q wave minimum and S wave minimum relative to the R wave maximum. With these preliminary findings and the advent of portable and wearable devices for the acquisition of the ECG signal, the temporal organization of the ECG signal offers robust potential for the field of biometrics.

Updated Lithological Map in the Forest Zone of the Centre, South and East Regions of Cameroon Using Multilayer Perceptron Neural Network and Landsat Images

The Multilayer Perceptron Neural Network (MLPNN) induction technique has been successfully applied to a variety of machine learning tasks, including the extraction and classification of image features. However, not much has been done in the application of MLPNN on images obtained by remote sensing. In this article, two automatic classification systems used in image feature extraction and classification from remote sensing data are presented. The first is a combination of two models: a MLPNN induction technique, integrated under ENVI (Environment for Visualizing Images) platform for classification, and a pre-processing model including dark subtraction for the calibration of the image, the Principal Components Analysis (PCA) for band selections and Independent Components Analysis (ICA) as blind source separator for feature extraction of the Landsat image. The second classification system is a MLPNN induction technique based on the Keras platform. In this case, there was no need for pre-processing model. Experimental results show the two classification systems to outperform other typical feature extraction and classification methods in terms of accuracy for some lithological classes including Granite1 class with the highest class accuracies of 96.69% and 92.69% for the first and second classification system respectively. Meanwhile, the two classification systems perform almost equally with the overall accuracies of 53.01% and 49.98% for the first and second models respectively though the keras model has the advantage of not integrating the pre-processing model, hence increasing its efficiency. The application of these two systems to the study area resulted in the generation of an updated geological mapping with six lithological classes detected including the Gneiss, the Micaschist, the Schist and three versions of Granites (Granite1, Granite2 and Granite3).

FORECASTING AUTOMOBILE WARRANTY PERFORMANCE IN PRESENCE OF ‘MATURING DATA’ PHENOMENA USING MULTILAYER PERCEPTRON NEURAL NETWORK

Automobile companies that spend billions of dollars annually towards warranty cost, give high priority to warranty reduction programs. Forecasting of automobile warranty performance plays an important role towards these efforts. The forecasting process involves prediction of not only the specific months-in-service (MIS) warranty performance at certain future time, but also at future MIS values. However, 'maturing data' (also called warranty growth) phenomena that causes warranty performance at specific MIS values to change with time, makes such a forecasting task challenging. Although warranty forecasting methods such as log-log plots and dynamic linear models appear in literature, there is a need for applications addressing the well recognized issue of ‘maturing data’. In this paper we use an artificial neural network for the forecasting of warranty performance in presence of ‘maturing data’ phenomena. The network parameters are optimized by minimizing the training and testing errors using response surface methodology. This application shows the effectiveness of neural networks in the forecasting of automobile warranty performance in the presence of the ‘maturing data’ phenomena.

Implementation of multilayer perceptron(MLP)and radial basis function(RBF)neural networks to predict solution gas-oil ratio of crude oil systems

Exact determination of pressure-volume-temperature(PVT)properties of the reservoir oils is necessary for reservoir calculations,reservoir performance prediction,and the design of optimal production conditions.The objective of this study is to develop intelligent and reliable models based on multilayer perceptron(MLP)and radial basis function(RBF)neural networks for estimating the solution gas–oil ratio as a function of bubble point pressure,reservoir temperature,oil gravity(API),and gas specific gravity.These models were developed and tested using a total of 710 experimental data sets representing the samples of crude oil from various geographical locations around the world.Performance of the developed MLP and RBF models were evaluated and investigated against a number of well-known empirical correlations using statistical and graphical error analyses.The results indicated that the proposed models outperform the considered empirical correlations,providing a strong agreement between predicted and experimental values,However,the developed RBF exhibited higher accuracy and efficiency compared to the proposed MLP model.

Multilayer perceptron neural network activated by adaptive Gaussian radial basis function and its application to predict lid-driven cavity flow

To improve the performance of multilayer perceptron(MLP)neural networks activated by conventional activation functions,this paper presents a new MLP activated by univariate Gaussian radial basis functions(RBFs)with adaptive centers and widths,which is composed of more than one hidden layer.In the hidden layer of the RBF-activated MLP network(MLPRBF),the outputs of the preceding layer are first linearly transformed and then fed into the univariate Gaussian RBF,which exploits the highly nonlinear property of RBF.Adaptive RBFs might address the issues of saturated outputs,low sensitivity,and vanishing gradients in MLPs activated by other prevailing nonlinear functions.Finally,we apply four MLP networks with the rectified linear unit(ReLU),sigmoid function(sigmoid),hyperbolic tangent function(tanh),and Gaussian RBF as the activation functions to approximate the one-dimensional(1D)sinusoidal function,the analytical solution of viscous Burgers’equation,and the two-dimensional(2D)steady lid-driven cavity flows.Using the same network structure,MLP-RBF generally predicts more accurately and converges faster than the other threeMLPs.MLP-RBF using less hidden layers and/or neurons per layer can yield comparable or even higher approximation accuracy than other MLPs equipped with more layers or neurons.

Introduction:Due to the health effects caused by airborne pollutants in urban areas,forecasting of air quality parameters is one of the most important topics of air quality research.During recent years,statistical models based on artificial neural networks(ANNs)have been increasingly applied and evaluated for forecasting of air quality.Methods:The development of ANN and multiple linear regressions(MLRs)has been applied to short-term prediction of the NO_(2) and NO_(x) concentrations as a function of meteorological conditions.The optimum structure of ANN was determined by a trial and error method.We used hourly NO_(x) and NO_(2) concentrations and metrological parameters,automatic monitoring network during October and November 2012 for two monitoring sites(Abrasan and Farmandari sites)in Tabriz,Iran.Results:Designing of the network architecture is based on the approximation theory of Kolmogorov,and the structure of ANN with 30 neurons had the best performance.ANN trained by scaled-conjugate-gradient(trainscg)training algorithm has implemented to model.It also demonstrates that MLP neural networks offer several advantages over linear MLR models.The results show that the correlation coefficient(R2)values are 0.92 and 0/94 for NO_(2) and NO_(x) concentrations,respectively.But in MLR model,R2 values were 0.41 and 0.44 for NO_(2) and NO_(x) concentrations,respectively.Conclusions:This work shows that MLP neural networks can accurately model the relationship between local meteorological data and NO_(2) and NO_(x) concentrations in an urban environment compared to linear models.

SAR image despeckling with a multilayer perceptron neural network

Speckle noise in synthetic-aperture radar (SAR) images severely hindersremote sensing applications;therefore, the appropriate removal ofspeckle noise is crucial. This paper elaborates on the multilayerperceptron (MLP) neural-network model for SAR image despeckling byusing a time series of SAR images. Unlike other filtering methods thatuse only a single radar intensity image to derive their parameters andfilter that single image, this method can be trained using archivedimages over an area of interest to self-learn the intensitycharacteristics of image patches and then adaptively determine theweights and thresholds by using a neural network for imagedespeckling. Several hidden layers are designed for feedforwardnetwork training, and back-propagation stochastic gradient descent isadopted to reduce the error between the target output and neuralnetwork output. The parameters in the network are automaticallyupdated in the training process. The greatest advantage of MLP is thatonce the despeckling parameters are determined, they can be used toprocess not only new images in the same area but also images incompletely different locations. Tests with images from TerraSAR-X inselected areas indicated that MLP shows satisfactory performance withrespect to noise reduction and edge preservation. The overall imagequality obtained using MLP was markedly higher than that obtainedusing numerous other filters. In comparison with other recentlydeveloped filters, this method yields a slightly higher image quality,and it demonstrates the powerful capabilities of computer learningusing SAR images, which indicate the promising prospect of applyingMLP to SAR image despeckling.

MODIFIED OPTIMIZATION LAYER BY LAYER ALGORITHM FOR LEARNING MULTILAYER PERCEPTRONS

Learning of the feedforward multilayer perceptron (MLP) networks is to adapt all synaptic weights in such a way that the discrepancy between the actual output signals and the desired signals, averaged over all learning examples (training patterns), is as small as possible. The backpropagation, or variations thereof, is a standard method applied to adjust the synaptic weights in the network in order to minimize a given cost function. However as a steepest descent approach, BP algorithm is too slow for many applications. Since late 1980s lots of efforts have been reported in the literature aimed at improving the efficiency of the algorithm. Among them a recently proposed learning strategy based on linearization of the nonlinear activation functions and optimization of the multilayer perceptron layer by layer (OLL) seems promising. In this paper a modified learning procedure is presented which tries to find a weight change vector at each trial iteration in the OLL algorithm more efficiently. The proposed learning procedure can save expensive computation efforts and yield better convergence rate as compared to the original OLL learning algorithms especially for large scale networks. The improved OLL learning algorithm is applied to the time series prediction problems presented by the OLL authors, and demonstrates a faster learning capability.

Medical Image Compression Method Using Lightweight Multi-Layer Perceptron for Mobile Healthcare Applications

As video compression is one of the core technologies required to enable seamless medical data streaming in mobile healthcare applications,there is a need to develop powerful media codecs that can achieve minimum bitrates while maintaining high perceptual quality.Versatile Video Coding(VVC)is the latest video coding standard that can provide powerful coding performance with a similar visual quality compared to the previously developed method that is High Efficiency Video Coding(HEVC).In order to achieve this improved coding performance,VVC adopted various advanced coding tools,such as flexible Multi-type Tree(MTT)block structure which uses Binary Tree(BT)split and Ternary Tree(TT)split.However,VVC encoder requires heavy computational complexity due to the excessive Ratedistortion Optimization(RDO)processes used to determine the optimalMTT block mode.In this paper,we propose a fast MTT decision method with two Lightweight Neural Networks(LNNs)using Multi-layer Perceptron(MLP),which are applied to determine the early termination of the TT split within the encoding process.Experimental results show that the proposed method significantly reduced the encoding complexity up to 26%with unnoticeable coding loss compared to the VVC TestModel(VTM).

Deep Reinforcement Learning Based Spectrum Prediction for Bursty Bands

Spectrum prediction plays an important role for the secondary user(SU)to utilize the shared spectrum resources.However,currently utilized prediction methods are not well applied to spectrum with high burstiness,as parameters of prediction models cannot be adjusted properly.This paper studies the prediction problem of bursty bands.Specifically,we first collect real Wi Fi transmission data in 2.4GHz Industrial,Scientific,Medical(ISM)band which is considered to have bursty characteristics.Feature analysis of the data indicates that the spectrum occupancy law of the data is time-variant,which suggests that the performance of commonly used single prediction model could be restricted.Considering that the match between diverse spectrum states and multiple prediction models may essentially improve the prediction performance,we then propose a deep-reinforcement learning based multilayer perceptron(DRL-MLP)method to address this matching problem.The state space of the method is composed of feature vectors,and each of the vectors contains multi-dimensional feature values.Meanwhile,the action space consists of several multilayer perceptrons(MLPs)that are trained on the basis of multiple classified data sets.We finally conduct experiments with the collected real data and simulations with generated data to verify the performance of the proposed method.The results demonstrate that the proposed method significantly outperforms the stateof-the-art methods in terms of the prediction accuracy.

Improving Performance of Recurrent Neural Networks Using Simulated Annealing for Vertical Wind Speed Estimation

An accurate vertical wind speed(WS)data estimation is required to determine the potential for wind farm installation.In general,the vertical extrapolation of WS at different heights must consider different parameters fromdifferent locations,such as wind shear coefficient,roughness length,and atmospheric conditions.The novelty presented in this article is the introduction of two steps optimization for the Recurrent Neural Networks(RNN)model to estimate WS at different heights using measurements from lower heights.The first optimization of the RNN is performed to minimize a differentiable cost function,namely,mean squared error(MSE),using the Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno algorithm.Secondly,the RNN is optimized to reduce a non-differentiable cost function using simulated annealing(RNN-SA),namely mean absolute error(MAE).Estimation ofWS vertically at 50 m height is done by training RNN-SA with the actualWS data a 10–40 m heights.The estimatedWS at height of 50 m and the measured WS at 10–40 heights are further used to train RNN-SA to obtain WS at 60 m height.This procedure is repeated continuously until theWS is estimated at a height of 180 m.The RNN-SA performance is compared with the standard RNN,Multilayer Perceptron(MLP),Support Vector Machine(SVM),and state of the art methods like convolutional neural networks(CNN)and long short-term memory(LSTM)networks to extrapolate theWS vertically.The estimated values are also compared with realWS dataset acquired using LiDAR and tested using four error metrics namely,mean squared error(MSE),mean absolute percentage error(MAPE),mean bias error(MBE),and coefficient of determination(R2).The numerical experimental results show that the MSE values between the estimated and actualWS at 180mheight for the RNN-SA,RNN,MLP,and SVM methods are found to be 2.09,2.12,2.37,and 2.63,respectively.
