Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper proposes a self-organizing network architecture for the learning and recognition of temporal patterns. This architecture is used to perform multisensor fusion and scene analysis for ROBART II, a second-generation autonomous sentry robot. The ability to understand one's environment, the goal of a multi-sensor fusion system, is not governed solely by static pattern recognition. The order in which sensor firings occur can be as important as the events themselves, and an intelligent robotic system must be able to detect and understand this ordering. Thus the dimension of time allows access to a wealth of information about the current environment, past events, and expectations about the future. Thus the ability to incorporate time into information processing is essential for multi-sensor fusion, and is necessary for robotic tasks such as the recognition of sequences of events, understanding cause and effect, making predictions and planning. Keywords: Network architecture, Robotics, Multisensor fusion, Temporal pattern recognition. (jes).

Book excerpt: A self-organizing network architecture for the learning of recognition codes corresponding to temporal patterns is described. The problem presents itself in many real-world situations. In any non-trivial environment in which a proposed system will function the spectre of temporal information-information coming into the system over a period of time-is evident. In many cases it is not sufficient to process the information independent of its relative time-order. Disciplines as diverse as speech recognition, robotics and data fusion/situation analysis require that temporal aspect of the data be considered. In temporal environments such as these the information lost when using a non-temporal approach can be prohibitive. This approach is formulated to make use of this important temporal information. The network described takes as its input individual incoming events. Sequences of these events (letters, phonemes, or, more abstractly, object sightings in a vision system), received by the system over time are categorized as specific sequences by the temporal system. The Temporal system produces Gaussian classifications that represent the statistics of the temporal data, and the temporal system. The Temporal system produces Gaussian classifications that represent the statistics of the temporal data, and the system uses a noisy environment, giving as output a Gaussian distance from the stored sequence, thus providing an analog measure of closeness of fit to currently known patterns. The system can recognize sequences with missing or extraneous elements, as well as out-of-order sequences.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For some time, all branches of the military have used a wide range of sensors to provide data for many purposes, including surveillance, reconnoitring, target detection and battle damage assessment. Many nations have also attempted to utilise these sensors for civilian applications, such as crop monitoring, agricultural disease tracking, environmental diagnostics, cartography, ocean temperature profiling, urban planning, and the characterisation of the Ozone Hole above Antarctica. The recent convergence of several important technologies has made possible new, advanced, high performance, sensor based applications relying on the near-simultaneous fusion of data from an ensemble of different types of sensors. The book examines the underlying principles of sensor operation and data fusion, the techniques and technologies that enable the process, including the operation of 'fusion engines'. Fundamental theory and the enabling technologies of data fusion are presented in a systematic and accessible manner. Applications are discussed in the areas of medicine, meteorology, BDA and targeting, transportation, cartography, the environment, agriculture, and manufacturing and process control.

This book was released on 2010-06-17 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Data assimilation of satellite-based observations of hydrological variables with full numerical physics models can be used to downscale these observations from coarse to high resolution to improve microwave sensor-based soil moisture observations. Moreover, assimilation can also be used to predict related hydrological variables, e.g., precipitation products can be assimilated in a land information system to estimate soil moisture. High quality spatio-temporal observations of these processes are vital for a successful assimilation which in turn needs a detailed analysis and improvement. In this research, pattern recognition and adaptive signal processing methods are developed for the spatio-temporal analysis and enhancement of soil moisture and precipitation datasets. These methods are applied to accomplish the following tasks: (i) a consistency analysis of level-3 soil moisture data from the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer - EOS (AMSR-E) against in-situ soil moisture measurements from the USDA Soil Climate Analysis Network (SCAN). This method performs a consistency assessment of the entire time series in relation to others and provides a spatial distribution of consistency levels. The methodology is based on a combination of wavelet-based feature extraction and oneclass support vector machines (SVM) classifier. Spatial distribution of consistency levels are presented as consistency maps for a region, including the states of Mississippi, Arkansas, and Louisiana. These results are well correlated with the spatial distributions of average soil moisture, and the cumulative counts of dense vegetation; (ii) a modified singular spectral analysis based interpolation scheme is developed and validated on a few geophysical data products including GODAE's high resolution sea surface temperature (GHRSST). This method is later employed to fill the systematic gaps in level-3 AMSR-E soil moisture dataset; (iii) a combination of artificial neural networks and vector space transformation function is used to fuse several high resolution precipitation products (HRPP). The final merged product is statistically superior to any of the individual datasets over a seasonal period. The results have been tested against ground based measurements of rainfall over our study area and average accuracies obtained are 85% in the summer and 55% in the winter 2007.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Handbook of Neural Computing Applications is a collection of articles that deals with neural networks. Some papers review the biology of neural networks, their type and function (structure, dynamics, and learning) and compare a back-propagating perceptron with a Boltzmann machine, or a Hopfield network with a Brain-State-in-a-Box network. Other papers deal with specific neural network types, and also on selecting, configuring, and implementing neural networks. Other papers address specific applications including neurocontrol for the benefit of control engineers and for neural networks researchers. Other applications involve signal processing, spatio-temporal pattern recognition, medical diagnoses, fault diagnoses, robotics, business, data communications, data compression, and adaptive man-machine systems. One paper describes data compression and dimensionality reduction methods that have characteristics, such as high compression ratios to facilitate data storage, strong discrimination of novel data from baseline, rapid operation for software and hardware, as well as the ability to recognized loss of data during compression or reconstruction. The collection can prove helpful for programmers, computer engineers, computer technicians, and computer instructors dealing with many aspects of computers related to programming, hardware interface, networking, engineering or design.
