Abstract With the popularity of deep learning tools in image decomposition and natural language processing, how to support and store a large number of parameters required by deep learning algorithms has become an urgent problem to be solved. These parameters are huge and can be as many as millions. At present, a feasible direction is to use the sparse representation technique to compress the parameter matrix to achieve the purpose of reducing parameters and reducing the storage pressure. These methods include matrix decomposition and tensor decomposition. To let vector take advance of the compressing performance of matrix decomposition and tensor decomposition,… More >

Abstract The development of deep learning has revolutionized image recognition technology. How to design faster and more accurate image classification algorithms has become our research interests. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm called stochastic depth networks with deep energy model (SADIE), and the model improves stochastic depth neural network with deep energy model to provide attributes of images and analysis their characteristics. First, the Bernoulli distribution probability is used to select the current layer of the neural network to prevent gradient dispersion during training. Then in the backpropagation process, the energy function is designed to optimize the target loss… More >

Abstract Recently, the radical digital transformation has deeply affected the traditional electricity grid and transformed it into an intelligent network (smart grid). This mutation is based on the progressive development of advanced technologies: advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) and smart meter which play a crucial role in the development of smart grid. AMI technologies have a promising potential in terms of improvement in energy efficiency, better demand management, and reduction in electricity costs. However the possibility of hacking smart meters and electricity theft is still among the most significant challenges facing electricity companies. In this regard, we propose a hybrid approach to… More >

Abstract In this study, machine learning representation is introduced to evaluate the flexoelectricity effect in truncated pyramid nanostructure under compression. A Non-Uniform Rational B-spline (NURBS) based IGA formulation is employed to model the flexoelectricity. We investigate 2D system with an isotropic linear elastic material under plane strain conditions discretized by 45×30 grid of B-spline elements. Six input parameters are selected to construct a deep neural network (DNN) model. They are the Young's modulus, two dielectric permittivity constants, the longitudinal and transversal flexoelectric coefficients and the order of the shape function. The outputs of interest are the strain in the stress direction… More >

Abstract In this study, deep-neural-network (DNN)- and artificial-neural-network (ANN)-based models along with regression models have been developed to estimate the pressure, bending and elongation values of ground-brick (GB)-added mortar samples. This study is aimed at utilizing GB as a mineral additive in concrete in the ratios 0.0%, 2.5%, 5.0%, 7.5%, 10.0%, 12.5% and 15.0%. In this study, 756 mortar samples were produced for 84 different series and were cured in tap water (W), 5% sodium sulphate solution (SS5) and 5% ammonium nitrate solution (AN5) for 7 days, 28 days, 90 days and 180 days. The developed DNN models have three inputs… More >
