A Convolutional Neural Network model based on Neutrosophy for Noisy Speech Recognition
Convolutional neural networks are sensitive to unknown noisy condition in the
test phase and so their performance degrades for the noisy data classification
task including noisy speech recognition. In this research, a new convolutional
neural network (CNN) model with data uncertainty handling; referred as NCNN
(Neutrosophic Convolutional Neural Network); is proposed for classification
task. Here, speech signals are used as input data and their noise is modeled as
uncertainty. In this task, using speech spectrogram, a definition of
uncertainty is proposed in neutrosophic (NS) domain. Uncertainty is computed
for each Time-frequency point of speech spectrogram as like a pixel. Therefore,
uncertainty matrix with the same size of spectrogram is created in NS domain.
In the next step, a two parallel paths CNN classification model is proposed.
Speech spectrogram is used as input of the first path and uncertainty matrix
for the second path. The outputs of two paths are combined to compute the final
output of the classifier. To show the effectiveness of the proposed method, it
has been compared with conventional CNN on the isolated words of Aurora2
dataset. The proposed method achieves the average accuracy of 85.96 in noisy
train data. It is more robust against Car, Airport and Subway noises with
accuracies 90, 88 and 81 in test sets A, B and C, respectively. Results show
that the proposed method outperforms conventional CNN with the improvement of
6, 5 and 2 percentage in test set A, test set B and test sets C, respectively.
It means that the proposed method is more robust against noisy data and handle
these data effectively.Comment: International conference on Pattern Recognition and Image Analysis

A survey of machine learning techniques applied to self organizing cellular networks
In this paper, a survey of the literature of the past fifteen years involving Machine Learning (ML) algorithms applied to self organizing cellular networks is performed. In order for future networks to overcome the current limitations and address the issues of current cellular systems, it is clear that more intelligence needs to be deployed, so that a fully autonomous and flexible network can be enabled. This paper focuses on the learning perspective of Self Organizing Networks (SON) solutions and provides, not only an overview of the most common ML techniques encountered in cellular networks, but also manages to classify each paper in terms of its learning solution, while also giving some examples. The authors also classify each paper in terms of its self-organizing use-case and discuss how each proposed solution performed. In addition, a comparison between the most commonly found ML algorithms in terms of certain SON metrics is performed and general guidelines on when to choose each ML algorithm for each SON function are proposed. Lastly, this work also provides future research directions and new paradigms that the use of more robust and intelligent algorithms, together with data gathered by operators, can bring to the cellular networks domain and fully enable the concept of SON in the near future
