They are known for having the capability of forecasting issues in real-world problems. Their acquired knowledge is stored in the interconnection strengths or weights of neurons through an optimization system known as learning. Several limitations have been identified with commonly used gradient-based optimization algorithms, including the risk of premature convergence, the sensitivity of initial parameters and positions, and the potential for getting trapped in local optima. Various meta-heuristics are proposed in the literature as alternative training algorithms to mitigate these limitations. Therefore, the primary aim of this study is to combine a feed-forward artificial neural network (ANN) with a cultural algorithm (CA) as a meta-heuristic, aiming to establish an efficient and dependable training system in comparison to existing methods. The proposed artificial neural network system (ANN-CA) evaluated its performance on classification tasks over nine benchmark datasets: Iris, Pima Indians Diabetes, Thyroid Disease, Breast Cancer Wisconsin, Credit Approval, Glass Identification, SPECT Heart, Wine and Balloon. The overall experimental results indicate that the proposed method outperforms other methods included in the comparative analysis by approximately 12% in terms of classification error and approximately 7% in terms of accuracy.","PeriodicalId":51144,"journal":{"name":"Neural Processing Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142210619","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditional statistical methods and machine learning models have been widely used for this task. However, they often face limitations in capturing complex temporal dependencies and handling multivariate time series data. In recent years, deep learning models have emerged as a promising solution for overcoming these limitations. This paper investigates how deep learning, specifically hybrid models, can enhance time series forecasting and address the shortcomings of traditional approaches. This dual capability handles intricate variable interdependencies and non-stationarities in multivariate forecasting. Our results show that the hybrid models achieved lower error rates and higher (R^2) values, signifying their superior predictive performance and generalization capabilities. These architectures effectively extract spatial features and temporal dynamics in multivariate time series by combining convolutional and recurrent modules. This study evaluates deep learning models, specifically hybrid architectures, for multivariate time series forecasting. On two real-world datasets - Traffic Volume and Air Quality - the TCN-BiLSTM model achieved the best overall performance. For Traffic Volume, the TCN-BiLSTM model achieved an (R^2) score of 0.976, and for Air Quality, it reached an (R^2) score of 0.94. These results highlight the model’s effectiveness in leveraging the strengths of Temporal Convolutional Networks (TCNs) for capturing multi-scale temporal patterns and Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BiLSTMs) for retaining contextual information, thereby enhancing the accuracy of time series forecasting.","PeriodicalId":51144,"journal":{"name":"Neural Processing Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142210621","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the correlation operation operates as a local linear matching process, limiting the tracker’s ability to capture the intricate nonlinear relationship between the template and search region branches. Moreover, most trackers don’t update the template and often use the first frame of an image as the initial template, which will easily lead to poor tracking performance of the algorithm when facing instances of deformation, scale variation, and occlusion of the tracking target. To this end, we propose a Simases tracking network with a multi-attention mechanism, including a template branch and a search branch. To adapt to changes in target appearance, we integrate dynamic templates and multi-attention mechanisms in the template branch to obtain more effective feature representation by fusing the features of initial templates and dynamic templates. To enhance the robustness of the tracking model, we utilize a multi-attention mechanism in the search branch that shares weights with the template branch to obtain multi-scale feature representation by fusing search region features at different scales. In addition, we design a lightweight and simple feature fusion mechanism, in which the Transformer encoder structure is utilized to fuse the information of the template area and search area, and the dynamic template is updated online based on confidence. Experimental results on publicly tracking datasets show that the proposed method achieves competitive results compared to several state-of-the-art trackers.","PeriodicalId":51144,"journal":{"name":"Neural Processing Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142210622","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, conventional learning methods face limitations due to the soaring cost and time associated with manually collecting sufficient sea ice data for model training. This paper introduces an innovative approach where Neural Dynamics (ND) algorithms are seamlessly integrated with a recurrent neural network, resulting in a Transfer-Learning-Like Neural Dynamics (TLLND) algorithm specifically tailored for sea ice extraction. Firstly, given the susceptibility of the image extraction process to noise in practical scenarios, an ND algorithm with noise tolerance and high extraction accuracy is proposed to address this challenge. Secondly, The internal coefficients of the ND algorithm are determined using a parametric method. Subsequently, the ND algorithm is formulated as a decoupled dynamical system. This enables the coefficients trained on a linear equation problem dataset to be directly generalized to solve the sea ice extraction challenges. Theoretical analysis ensures that the effectiveness of the proposed TLLND algorithm remains unaffected by the specific characteristics of various dataset. To validate its efficacy, robustness, and generalization performance, several comparative experiments are conducted using diverse Arctic sea ice satellite imagery with varying levels of noise. The outcomes of these experiments affirm the competence of the proposed TLLND algorithm in addressing the complexities associated with sea ice extraction.","PeriodicalId":51144,"journal":{"name":"Neural Processing Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142210623","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, as the model becomes deeper, important features may be lost, resulting in decreased accuracy. To tackle this issue, this paper proposes an image classification method that enhances low-level features and incorporates an attention mechanism. The proposed method employs EfficientNet as the backbone network for feature extraction. Firstly, the Feature Enhancement Module quantifies and statistically processes low-level features from shallow layers, thereby enhancing the feature information. Secondly, the Convolutional Block Attention Module enhances the high-level features to improve the extraction of global features. Finally, the enhanced low-level features and global features are fused to supplement low-resolution global features with high-resolution details, further improving the model’s image classification ability. Experimental results illustrate that the proposed method achieves a Top-1 classification accuracy of 86.49% and a Top-5 classification accuracy of 96.90% on the ETH-Food101 dataset, 86.99% and 97.24% on the VireoFood-172 dataset, and 70.99% and 92.73% on the UEC-256 dataset.

State-of-the-art domain adaptation methods typically focus on finding an optimal inter-domain invariant feature representation or helpful instances from the source domain. In this paper, we propose a kernel extreme learning machine with discriminative transfer features and instance selection (KELM-DTF-IS) for unsupervised domain adaptation tasks, which consists of two steps: discriminative transfer feature extraction and classification with instance selection. At the feature extraction stage, we extend cross domain mean approximation(CDMA) by incorporating a penalty term and develop discriminative cross domain mean approximation (d-CDMA) to optimize the category separability between instances. Subsequently, d-CDMA is integrated into kernel ELM-AutoEncoder(KELM-AE) for extracting inter-domain invariant features. During the classification process, our approach uses CDMA metrics to compute a weights to each source instances based on their impact in reducing distribution differences between domains. Instances with a greater effect receive higher weights and vice versa. These weights are then used to distinguish and select source domain instances before incorporating them into weight KELM for proposing an adaptive classifier. Finally, we apply our approach to conduct classification experiments on publicly available domain adaptation datasets, and the results demonstrate its superiority over KELM and numerous other domain adaptation approaches.\u0000","PeriodicalId":51144,"journal":{"name":"Neural Processing Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142210624","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The disadvantage of NeRF is that it requires a long training time since it samples many 3D points. In addition, if one samples points from occluded regions or in the space where an object is unlikely to exist, the rendering quality of NeRF can be degraded. These issues can be solved by estimating the geometry of 3D scene. This paper proposes a near-surface sampling framework to improve the rendering quality of NeRF. To this end, the proposed method estimates the surface of a 3D object using depth images of the training set and performs sampling only near the estimated surface. To obtain depth information on a novel view, the paper proposes a 3D point cloud generation method and a simple refining method for projected depth from a point cloud. Experimental results show that the proposed near-surface sampling NeRF framework can significantly improve the rendering quality, compared to the original NeRF and three different state-of-the-art NeRF methods. In addition, one can significantly accelerate the training time of a NeRF model with the proposed near-surface sampling framework.","PeriodicalId":51144,"journal":{"name":"Neural Processing Letters","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-07-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141741210","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
