Incremental construction of LSTM recurrent neural network
Long Short--Term Memory (LSTM) is a recurrent neural network that
uses structures called memory blocks to allow the net remember
significant events distant in the past input sequence in order to
solve long time lag tasks, where other RNN approaches fail.
Throughout this work we have performed experiments using LSTM
networks extended with growing abilities, which we call GLSTM.
Four methods of training growing LSTM has been compared. These
methods include cascade and fully connected hidden layers as well
as two different levels of freezing previous weights in the
cascade case. GLSTM has been applied to a forecasting problem in a biomedical domain, where the input/output behavior of five
controllers of the Central Nervous System control has to be
modelled. We have compared growing LSTM results against other
neural networks approaches, and our work applying conventional
LSTM to the task at hand.Postprint (published version
Non-Direct Encoding Method Based on Cellular Automata to Design Neural Network Architectures
Architecture design is a fundamental step in the successful application of Feed forward Neural Networks. In most cases a large number of neural networks architectures suitable to solve a problem exist and the architecture design is, unfortunately, still a human expert’s job. It depends heavily on the expert and on a tedious trial-and-error process. In the last years, many works have been focused on automatic resolution of the design of neural network architectures. Most of the methods are based on evolutionary computation paradigms. Some of the designed methods are based on direct representations of the parameters of the network. These representations do not allow scalability; thus, for representing large architectures very large structures are required. More interesting alternatives are represented by indirect schemes. They codify a compact representation of the neural network. In this work, an indirect constructive encoding scheme is proposed. This scheme is based on cellular automata representations and is inspired by the idea that only a few seeds for the initial configuration of a cellular automaton can produce a wide variety of feed forward neural networks architectures. The cellular approach is experimentally validated in different domains and compared with a direct codification scheme.Publicad

Behavioral models of digital IC ports from measured transient waveforms
This paper addresses the behavioral modeling of output ports of digital integrated circuits via the identification of nonlinear parametric models. The aim of the approach is to produce models for signal integrity (SI) simulation directly from the measured transient responses of the devices. The modeling process is thoroughly described and an experimental demonstration of its feasibility is give
Prediction in Photovoltaic Power by Neural Networks
The ability to forecast the power produced by renewable energy plants in the short and middle term is a key issue to allow a high-level penetration of the distributed generation into the grid infrastructure. Forecasting energy production is mandatory for dispatching and distribution issues, at the transmission system operator level, as well as the electrical distributor and power system operator levels. In this paper, we present three techniques based on neural and fuzzy neural networks, namely the radial basis function, the adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system and the higher-order neuro-fuzzy inference system, which are well suited to predict data sequences stemming from real-world applications. The preliminary results concerning the prediction of the power generated by a large-scale photovoltaic plant in Italy confirm the reliability and accuracy of the proposed approaches
