pth moment exponential stability of stochastic fuzzy Cohen–Grossberg neural networks with discrete and distributed delays
In this paper, stochastic fuzzy Cohen–Grossberg neural networks with discrete and distributed delays are investigated. By using Lyapunov function and the Ito differential formula, some sufficient conditions for the pth moment exponential stability of such stochastic fuzzy Cohen–Grossberg neural networks with discrete and distributed delays are established. An example is given to illustrate the feasibility of our main theoretical findings. Finally, the paper ends with a brief conclusion. Methodology and achieved results is to be presented
Study on H
This paper studies the H- index problem. We obtain a necessary and sufficient condition of H- index larger than γ>0. A generalized differential equation is introduced and it is proved that its solvability and the feasibility of the H- index are equivalent. We extend the deterministic cases to the stochastic models. Our results can be used to fault detection filter analysis. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed results is illustrated by an example
Neuroengineering of Clustering Algorithms
Cluster analysis can be broadly divided into multivariate data visualization, clustering algorithms, and cluster validation. This dissertation contributes neural network-based techniques to perform all three unsupervised learning tasks. Particularly, the first paper provides a comprehensive review on adaptive resonance theory (ART) models for engineering applications and provides context for the four subsequent papers. These papers are devoted to enhancements of ART-based clustering algorithms from (a) a practical perspective by exploiting the visual assessment of cluster tendency (VAT) sorting algorithm as a preprocessor for ART offline training, thus mitigating ordering effects; and (b) an engineering perspective by designing a family of multi-criteria ART models: dual vigilance fuzzy ART and distributed dual vigilance fuzzy ART (both of which are capable of detecting complex cluster structures), merge ART (aggregates partitions and lessens ordering effects in online learning), and cluster validity index vigilance in fuzzy ART (features a robust vigilance parameter selection and alleviates ordering effects in offline learning). The sixth paper consists of enhancements to data visualization using self-organizing maps (SOMs) by depicting in the reduced dimension and topology-preserving SOM grid information-theoretic similarity measures between neighboring neurons. This visualization\u27s parameters are estimated using samples selected via a single-linkage procedure, thereby generating heatmaps that portray more homogeneous within-cluster similarities and crisper between-cluster boundaries. The seventh paper presents incremental cluster validity indices (iCVIs) realized by (a) incorporating existing formulations of online computations for clusters\u27 descriptors, or (b) modifying an existing ART-based model and incrementally updating local density counts between prototypes. Moreover, this last paper provides the first comprehensive comparison of iCVIs in the computational intelligence literature --Abstract, page iv
Machine Learning
Machine Learning can be defined in various ways related to a scientific domain concerned with the design and development of theoretical and implementation tools that allow building systems with some Human Like intelligent behavior. Machine learning addresses more specifically the ability to improve automatically through experience
Discrete Time Systems
Discrete-Time Systems comprehend an important and broad research field. The consolidation of digital-based computational means in the present, pushes a technological tool into the field with a tremendous impact in areas like Control, Signal Processing, Communications, System Modelling and related Applications. This book attempts to give a scope in the wide area of Discrete-Time Systems. Their contents are grouped conveniently in sections according to significant areas, namely Filtering, Fixed and Adaptive Control Systems, Stability Problems and Miscellaneous Applications. We think that the contribution of the book enlarges the field of the Discrete-Time Systems with signification in the present state-of-the-art. Despite the vertiginous advance in the field, we also believe that the topics described here allow us also to look through some main tendencies in the next years in the research area

Advances in Reinforcement Learning
Reinforcement Learning (RL) is a very dynamic area in terms of theory and application. This book brings together many different aspects of the current research on several fields associated to RL which has been growing rapidly, producing a wide variety of learning algorithms for different applications. Based on 24 Chapters, it covers a very broad variety of topics in RL and their application in autonomous systems. A set of chapters in this book provide a general overview of RL while other chapters focus mostly on the applications of RL paradigms: Game Theory, Multi-Agent Theory, Robotic, Networking Technologies, Vehicular Navigation, Medicine and Industrial Logistic

Investigation of artificial neural networks for forecasting and classification
This thesis describes research conducted at City University into the application of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs). ANNs have been evaluated as candidate solutions to two common tasks: classification and forecasting. More specifically the ANN models considered were those that could be implemented as computer algorithms suitable for the application domains considered.
ANNs have emerged from a multi-disciplinary field of researchers attempting to understand and model biologically inspired neural systems on both the small and large scale. At the small end of the scale individual processing elements are studied in depth whilst in the large scale, networks containing many interconnected elements are simulated and behaviour analysed. The capabilities of the more mature ANN models have been explored in depth, with several being applied to domains, competing with established techniques such as machine learning, statistical methods and mathematical modelling. The relatively new field of ANN research is characterised by recent expansion in academic activity, rapid and widespread application of models and much debate over the benefits and performance of such models (not without controversy).
The motivation behind this study was to evaluate objectively the potential of ANN models in what can be termed ‘real world’ problems, as opposed to artificial tasks based on synthetic data. Real, rather than artificial data were used in the applications presented, since one of the perceived benefits of ANN models is the ability to cope with the noisy, complex and often high dimensional data sets found in many ‘real world’ problem domains
