A recognition system based on self-learning BP neural network for feature data of wheat population images, such as total green areas and leaves areas was designed in this paper. In addition, some techniques to create favorable conditions for image recognition was discussed, which were as follows: (1) The method of collecting images by a digital camera and assistant equipment under natural conditions in fields. (2) An algorithm of pixel labeling was used to segment image and extract feature. (3) A high pass filter based on Laplacian was used to strengthen image information. The results showed that the ANN system was availability for image recognition of wheat population feature.展开更多

BP neural network models were developed for the prediction of pitting corrosion mass loss using the obtained data of the total and the average pit areas which were extracted from pitting binary image. The results showed that the predicted results obtained by the 2-5-1 type BP neural network model are in good agreement with the experimental data of pitting corrosion mass loss. The maximum relative error of prediction is 6.78%.展开更多

The model,represented by a back-propagation netal network, was trained with a 12 set of published data for divalent rare earth halides and then was used to predict the unknown ones. Also the criterion equations were ptesented to determine the enthalpies of fuSion for divalent rare earth halides using pattern recognition in mis work.

In this paper, we proposed a system that has three sub-systems. The three subsystems focus on offline recognition of handwritten English alphabetic characters (uppercase and lowercase), numeric characters (0 - 9) and individual signatures respectively. The system includes several stages like image preprocessing, the post-processing, the segmentation, the detection of the required amount of the character and signature, feature extraction and finally Neural Network recognition. At first, the scanned image is filtered after conversion of the scanned image into a gray image. Then image cropping method is applied to detect the signature. Then an accurate recognition is ensured by post-processing the cropped images. MATLAB has been used to design the system. The subsystems are then tested for several samples and the results are found satisfactory at about 97% success rate. The quality of the image plays a vital role as the images of poor or mediocre quality may lead to unsuccessful recognition and verification.展开更多

The key function is to recognize theobserved stars by comparing them with the reference cata-logue. Autonomous star pattern recognition requires thatsimilar patterns can be distinguished from each other with a small training set. Therefore, a new method based on neural network technology is proposed and a recognition systemcontaining parallel backpropagation (BP) multi-subnets isdesigned. The simulation results show that the method per-forms much better than traditional algorithms and the pro-posed system can achieve both higher recognition accuracyand faster recognition speed.展开更多
