Retrieval of carbon dioxide vertical concentration profiles from satellite data using artificial neural networks

Abstract. In this paper, we derive vertical distributions of carbon dioxide atmospheric concentration from satellite data using a retrieval algorithm based on an artificial neural network (ANN) technique. Sensitivity studies were made to se...

Evaluation of Indoor Thermal Environments Using a Novel Predicted Mean Vote Model Based on Artificial Neural Networks

The assessment of indoor thermal environments is crucial to achieving thermal comfort and energy efficiency. However, the inaccurate evaluation and strong nonlinear variations of thermal comfort parameters limit engineering designs. Therefo...

Neural Networks for River Flow Prediction

The surface‐water hydrographs of rivers exhibit large variations due to many natural phenomena. One of the most commonly used approaches for interpolating and extending streamflow records is to fit observed data with an analytic power model...

Bayesian Regularization of Neural Networks

Bayesian regularized artificial neural networks (BRANNs) are more robust than standard back-propagation nets and can reduce or eliminate the need for lengthy cross-validation. Bayesian regularization is a mathematical process that converts ...

Artificial neural networks: a tutorial

Artificial neural nets (ANNs) are massively parallel systems with large numbers of interconnected simple processors. The article discusses the motivations behind the development of ANNs and describes the basic biological neuron and the arti...

Determining the Optimum Layer Combination for Cross-Laminated Timber Panels According to Timber Strength Classes Using Artificial Neural Networks

Evaluation of noise reduction methods in digital images: Classical filtering vs adaptive learning-based models

Digital images acquired through imaging systems often lose their original fidelity due to various types of noise introduced during acquisition, storage, or transmission, consequently reducing clarity and adversely affecting subsequent image...

Humanized substitutions of Vmat1 in mice alter amygdala-dependent behaviors associated with the evolution of anxiety

Summary: The human vesicular monoamine transporter 1 (VMAT1) harbors unique substitutions (Asn136Thr/Ile) that affect monoamine uptake into synaptic vesicles. These substitutions are absent in all known mammals, suggesting their contributio...

On the character of consciousness

The human brain is a particularly demanding system to infer its nature from observations. Thus, there is on one hand plenty of room for theorizing and on the other hand a pressing need for a rigorous theory. We apply statistical mechanics o...

How structure determines correlations in neuronal networks.

Networks are becoming a ubiquitous metaphor for the understanding of complex biological systems, spanning the range between molecular signalling pathways, neural networks in the brain, and interacting species in a food web. In many models, ...
