In our previous work, standard genetic programming (SGP) evolves a single population, which often results in premature convergence. This paper concentrates on multipopulation evolution in order to maintain population diversity to avoid this. Comparison between single and multi population shows superiority of the latter. Study of migration interval and migration rate draws the conclusion that it is helpful to obtain optimal solutions that subpopulations keep communicating often and only a few of individuals migrate when communicating. All experiments are based on forecasting wheat stripe rust disease. MGP shows good prediction, which is hopeful to become an auxiliary method for forecasting crop pests.","PeriodicalId":336216,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Neural Networks and Signal Processing, 2003.

Our objective is to minimize the sum of the ripple energy for all the individual filters, subject to the specifications on amplitude and aliasing distortions, and to the passband and stopband specifications for the individual filters. This optimum nonuniform transmultiplexer design problem can be formulated as a quadratic semi-infinite programming problem. The dual parametrization algorithm is extended to the design of this nonuniform transmultiplexer problem. If the lengths of the filters are sufficiently long and the set of decimation integers is compatible, then our algorithm guarantees that the solution obtained will give rise to the global minimum, and the required specifications are satisfied.","PeriodicalId":336216,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Neural Networks and Signal Processing, 2003.

Many BSS algorithms use neural networks to perform the learning rules, probably because neural networks are powerful in nonlinear mapping and learning ability.","PeriodicalId":336216,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Neural Networks and Signal Processing, 2003.

In order to reduce the computational complexity of estimating better network structures, we elaborates the fitness function of the GA module, based upon the synchronicity of specific pattern in the selected individuals.

This compression, however, sometimes brings artifacts. Typical artifacts are blocking artifacts and mosquito noise in DCT-coded images, and ringing artifacts around edges in wavelet-coded images. We propose a new directional post-processing algorithm which can reduce ringing artifacts around edges of a compressed image. The algorithm detects edge direction in each N/spl times/N block and then applies an appropriate window shape to decoded N/spl times/N block images for nonlinear filtering. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm is as effective as or more effective than existing nonlinear filtering techniques.","PeriodicalId":336216,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Neural Networks and Signal Processing, 2003.

Chinese chunk analysis plays a very important role in machine translation from Chinese to foreign languages. The automatic segmentation of Chinese chunks is the basis of Chinese chunk analysis. It is important for processing real text and corpus construction. This paper presents a method for automatic segmentation of Chinese chunks based on 3-layers neural networks. The corpus we used has been processed with Chinese word segmentation and phrase identification and tagging. In the neural networks model, the input data is the segmentation situation of every character and its combinations with neighbor characters in a Chinese sentence. The output is the segmentation results of every character in a Chinese sentence. The preliminary results show that the method is feasible and effective.","PeriodicalId":336216,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Neural Networks and Signal Processing, 2003.

Finally, an adaptive processing of data structure algorithm is employed to perform the classification task with binary tree representation. Experimental results on seven categories of scenery images show this region-based structural representation is superior to our previous work based on quadtree representation.","PeriodicalId":336216,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Neural Networks and Signal Processing, 2003.
