Within existing R-CNN literature, the evolution exhibited by R-CNN is most profound in terms of computational efficiency integrating each training stage to reduce test time and improvement in mean average precision (mAP), which can be infused into an artificially intelligent (AI), machine learning (ML), real-time, interactive, recovery capital application (app). This article introduces a Region Proposal Network (RPN) that shares full-image convolutional features with a real-time detection AI-ML infused network in an interactive, continuously self-learning wrist-wearable real-time recovery capital app for enabling cost-free region proposals (e.g., instantaneous body physiological responses, mapped connections to emergency services, sponsor, counselor, peer support, links to local and specific recovery capital assets, etc.). A fully merged RPN and Faster R-CNN deep convolutional unified network in the app can simultaneously train to aggregate and predict object bounds and objectness scores for implementing recovery capital real-time solutions (e.g., baseball card scoring dashboards, token-based incentive programs, etc.) A continuous training scheme alternates between fine-tuning RPN tasks (e.g., logging and updating personal client information, gamification orientation) and fine-tuning the detection (e.g., real-time biometric monitoring client’s behavior for self-awareness of when to connect with an addiction specialist or family member, quick response (QR) code registration for a 12-step program, advanced security encryption, etc.) in the interactive app. The very deep VGG-16 model detection system has a frame rate of 5fps within a graphic processing unit (GPU) while accomplishing sophisticated object detection accuracy on PASCAL Visual Object Classification Challenge (PASCAL VOC) and Microsoft Common Objects in Context (MS COCO) datasets. This is achieved with only 300 proposals per real-time retrieved data capture point, information bit or image. The app has real-time, infused cartographic and statistical tracking tools to generate Python Codes, which can enable a gamified addiction recovery-oriented digital conscience. Faster R-CNN and RPN can be the foundations of an interactive real-time recovery capital app that can be adaptable to multiple recovery pathways based on participant recovery plans and actions. This paper discusses some of the critical attributes and features to include in the design of a future app to support and close current gaps in needed recovery capital to help those who are dealing with many different forms of addiction recovery.\u0000","PeriodicalId":325288,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Neural Networks and Applications","volume":"36 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140260371","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In some cases, the technicalities involved can only be exploited by well-trained researchers. Therefore, estimating this important crop parameter from readily available climatic data by way of modelling will ease the burden of direct measurement. The aim of the study is to parameterize models of canopy conductance of rain-fed cocoa tree, suitable for inclusion in physically-based model for predicting water use of cocoa trees. To do this, Sap flow density was monitored in three cocoa trees (Forestaro cultivar group) at the eight (8) year old cocoa plantation of the Federal University of Technology, Akure, Nigeria (7° 18' 15.9\"N, 5° 07' 32.3\"E), from 8th March 2018 to 7th March 2019, covering the two seasons of the region. Cocoa tree transpiration was determined from the measured sap flow and fitted into a physically based model (PM) to derive canopy conductance used for modelling. To choose the best model that predicts canopy conductance (the stomata control of water transport) in cocoa trees, Vector Autoregressive Models (VAR), a multivariate time series model, and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network, an Artificial Intelligence (AI) model were employed. The prediction power of the VAR model was assessed and visualized using the vars R package, while the LSTM model, a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) algorithm was implemented using Python programming within Google COLAB jupyter notebook. Before modelling, data were tested for stationarity using the Augmented Dickey-Fuller test. While two-thirds of the data were used to train the models, the remaining one-third of the data were used to test the trained model. As VAR models were evaluated using R-squared and Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE), LSTM was evaluated by comparing the train loss and test loss, and also RMSE. VAR (with Adjusted R-Squared=0.11) is found not to be suitable to model the complex relationship between canopy conductance and climatic variables. Further iteration to exclude insignificant climatic variables from the VAR model did not also improve the model. However, LSTM with RMSE of 0.026 and having the test loss not dropping below the training loss was observed to perform better in modelling the canopy conductance of Cocoa. The result of the research further revealed that temporal dynamics of transpiration is complex and difficult to be defined by traditional regression. LSTM with a prediction accuracy of 97.4% could therefore be used for the prediction of cocoa canopy conductance.","PeriodicalId":325288,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Neural Networks and Applications","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130799437","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, the author introduces a new type of recurrent neural network algorithm, called Chaotic Recurrent Neural Network (CRNN), which is based on Dr. Raymond’s original research on Lee-Oscillator and Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) for worldwide financial prediction. We replaced the traditional activation function with a Lee Oscillator Neural Network, which not only can solve the vanishing gradient problem of traditional recurring neural networks during algorithm training, but can also provide an excellent memory correlation mechanism during long-term time series processing. The Experimental results reveal that CRNN outperforms than some popular neural network which widely applied to predict financial data, such as FFBPN, RNN, LSTM, in terms of forecast accuracy in certain cases. The experimental environment is based on Pytorch and Python 3.8, using 10 years (2010-2020) major financial index data, including DJI, HSI, IXIC, SPX, SSE, SZSE, APPL, to forecast 31th day closing price with previous 30 days closing price.

In this study, the group method of data handling type neural network (GMDH-NN) was presented for significant wave height prediction in an attempt to suggest a new model with superior explanatory power and stability. The GMDH-NN results were compared with the field data and with a multilayer perceptron neural networks (MLPNN) model. The results indicate that the prediction accuracy and avoidance of over-fitting of the GMDH-NN method were superior to those of the MLPNN method. The percentage improvement in the root mean square error and the mean absolute percentage error of the GMDH-NN model over the MLPNN model were 72.92% and 81.02%, respectively. Also, according to the indices, the GMDH-NN model performs the best for predicting the Hs of all of the wave height ranges.
