Abstract: DNA Barcode provides good sources of needed
information to classify living species. The classification problem has
to be supported with reliable methods and algorithms. To analyze
species regions or entire genomes, it becomes necessary to use the
similarity sequence methods. A large set of sequences can be
simultaneously compared using Multiple Sequence Alignment which
is known to be NP-complete. However, all the used methods are still
computationally very expensive and require significant computational
infrastructure. Our goal is to build predictive models that are highly
accurate and interpretable. In fact, our method permits to avoid the
complex problem of form and structure in different classes of
organisms. The empirical data and their classification performances
are compared with other methods. Evenly, in this study, we present
our system which is consisted of three phases. The first one, is called
transformation, is composed of three sub steps; Electron-Ion
Interaction Pseudopotential (EIIP) for the codification of DNA
Barcodes, Fourier Transform and Power Spectrum Signal Processing.
Moreover, the second phase step is an approximation; it is
empowered by the use of Multi Library Wavelet Neural Networks
(MLWNN). Finally, the third one, is called the classification of DNA
Barcodes, is realized by applying the algorithm of hierarchical
classification.
Abstract: Wavelet neural networks (WNNs) have emerged as a vital alternative to the vastly studied multilayer perceptrons (MLPs) since its first implementation. In this paper, we applied various clustering algorithms, namely, K-means (KM), Fuzzy C-means (FCM), symmetry-based K-means (SBKM), symmetry-based Fuzzy C-means (SBFCM) and modified point symmetry-based K-means (MPKM) clustering algorithms in choosing the translation parameter of a WNN. These modified WNNs are further applied to the heterogeneous cancer classification using benchmark microarray data and were compared against the conventional WNN with random initialization method. Experimental results showed that a WNN classifier with the MPKM algorithm is more precise than the conventional WNN as well as the WNNs with other clustering algorithms.
Abstract: The main goal of the present work is to decrease the
computational burden for optimum design of steel frames with
frequency constraints using a new type of neural networks called
Wavelet Neural Network. It is contested to train a suitable neural
network for frequency approximation work as the analysis program.
The combination of wavelet theory and Neural Networks (NN)
has lead to the development of wavelet neural networks.
Wavelet neural networks are feed-forward networks using
wavelet as activation function. Wavelets are mathematical
functions within suitable inner parameters, which help them to
approximate arbitrary functions. WNN was used to predict the
frequency of the structures. In WNN a RAtional function with
Second order Poles (RASP) wavelet was used as a transfer
function. It is shown that the convergence speed was faster
than other neural networks. Also comparisons of WNN with
the embedded Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and with
approximate techniques and also with analytical solutions are
available in the literature.
