In this paper, we present a block of adaptive weight change (AWC) mechanism for analog current-mode Kohonen's Neural Network (KNN) implemented in CMOS 0.18 μm technology. As some other essential building blocks of KNNs dealing with the calculations of the ...
We have monitored and analyzed, through remote sensing and ancillary field surveys, the rapid (O(1) year) development of a tidal network within a newly established artificial salt marsh in the Venice Lagoon. After the construction of the salt marsh, a netw ...
In this paper we propose a method for classifying regions of images and videos frames into text and non-text regions using support vector machine (SVM). Different features are proposed to characterise the texture formed by text characters and background. S ...
Choosing a suitable topology for a neural network, given an application, is a difficult problem. Usually, after a tedious trial-and-error process, an oversized topology is chosen, which is prone to various drawbacks like a high demand on computational reso ...
We describe a method to classify online sleep/wake states of humans based on cardiorespiratory signals for wearable applications. The method is designed to be embedded in a portable microcontroller device and to cope with the resulting tight power and weig ...
Analytic queueing network models often assume infinite capacity for all queues. For real systems this infinite capacity assumption does not hold, but is often maintained due to the difficulty of grasping the between-queue correlation structure present in f ...
Ultrasonic motors are a good alternative to electromagnetic motors in medical robotics, since they are electromagnetically compatible. Estimating speed instead of using encoders reduces cost and dimension of the robot on the one hand and increases reliabil ...
This paper reviews theoretical and observational material on form and function of natural networks appeared in somewhat disparate contexts from physics to biology, whose study is related to hydrologic research. Moving from the exact result that drainage ne ...
Neural networks are widely applied in research and industry. However, their broader application is hampered by various technical details. Among these details are several training parameters and the choice of the topology of the network. The subject of this ...
