It is very important to monitor the changes in the amount of soil erosion, for useful information to guide the planning of soil and water conservation, protect the soil and water resources and control the soil erosion. Therefore, the method by which we obtain high quality and long sequential LAI at a regional scale is very important for analyzing the relationship between the dynamic changes in soil erosion and vegetation. Previous studies showed that the neural network had an incomparable superiority in terms of complex, nonlinear data fitting and pattern recognition, and had been successfully applied to inverse the LAI in Nanjing based on the multi-spectral remote sensing data derived from the Landsat 8 Operational Land Imager(OLI), four types of vegetation indices(Normalized Difference Vegetation Index, NDVI; Ratio Vegetation Index, RVI; Soil-adjusted Vegetation Index, SAVI; Modified Soil adjusted Vegetation Index, MSAVI), and measured LAI data. The results showed that the accuracy of retrieval was good. In this paper, we used the Back Propagation(BP) neural network model to inverse the LAI in Nanjing during 1988-2013 based on the data derived from Landsat 8 OLI and Landsat 5 Thematic Mapper(TM). Based on the measured values of LAI in 2009 and 2010, the evaluation accuracy and adaptability of the model were verified and discussed. The results showed that:(1) The model had a fitting of higher degree, and average relative errors(MAPE), root mean square errors(RMSE), and correlation coefficients(R) in 2009 and 2010 of 0.2395 and 0.2174, 0.2962 and 0.2581, and 0.7713 and 0.6844, respectively. Each accuracy evaluation index was good.(2) Following statistical analysis, we found that the low vegetation coverage area(LAI < 2) exhibited an increasing trend, the high vegetation coverage area(LAI > 3) presented a first decreasing and then increasing trend, while the cultivated land area decreased with the rapid development in Nanjing.(3) To analyze accurately the LAI, we extracted the LAI in the main urban area, and found that there was a relatively high inversion value, and the inter-annual change in LAI was consistent with the change in vegetation coverage in Nanjing reported by other studies. Therefore, we could see that the BP neural network model had a high accuracy for the time series LAI inversion. It provides a new way for quantitative remote sensing monitoring of regional soil erosion. Moreover, because of other potential limiting factors, such as the errors produced by the BP neural network model, the large area of the inversion area, the complexity of vegetation types and community structure, etc., the inversion accuracy of LAI through remote sensing still needs to be explored, and the inversion method improved. We will try to establish a multi-angle LAI inversion method to construct the coupling model of LAI and soil erosion or quantitative fusion of multi-source remote sensing images in the future study. 参考文献 相似文献 引证文献

Aiming at the shortcomings of the low efficiency optimization algorithm and the tendency to fall into the local optimal solution in the existing shallow sea geoacoustic parameters inversion research, a shallow sea geoacoustic parameters inversion method based on the Back Propagation (BP) neural network model is proposed. First, the theoretical prediction value of the shallow sea sound pressure field is obtained through the Fast Field Method (FFM). Then the mapping relationship between the predicted sound pressure field and the geoacoustic parameters value to be inverted is established according to the BP neural network model. Finally, the measured sound pressure field data is brought into the neural network to obtain the inversion results. The experimental results show that, compared with the classic simulated annealing (Simulated Annealing, SA) algorithm, the BP neural network model converts the data matching process of the optimization algorithm into the construction of a relational model, avoiding multiple matching optimization processes for the inversion results, and the inversion results can be output directly, accurately, and efficiently. Under the premise of setting the same accuracy, the calculation time of the BP neural network model for the inversion result is shortened, and the number of iterations is reduced to 5% of the SA algorithm.

The formation of the sticking-type breakouts and the prediction principle of thermocouple thermometry method are analysed firstly. Then the genetic algorithm-based back propagation neural network model is proposed by fusing genetic algorithm (GA), and error back propagation neural network to offset the demerits of one paradigm by the merits of another. Finally, the GABP neural network model is applied to the breakout prediction in the continuous casting process; and the feasibility of the model is verified by the testing result with the accuracy rate of 97.56% and the prediction rate of 100%.

Improving the resilience of enterprise safety production is one of the important ways to deal with the frequency of safety accidents. Based on the definition of enterprise safety production resilience, we fully consider the impacts of recovery resilience, self-organizing resilience, and learning resilience as the three dimensions of enterprise safety production resilience. We build a back propagation (BP) neural network model that analyzes the main factors of enterprise safety production resilience using the results of gray relational analysis as an input that can assess the resilience of enterprise safety production and provide a valuable reference for the improvement of an enterprise’s safety production level. The results show that the resilience of production safety obviously increased after the Chinese enterprises with low resilience (as predicted by the model) adopted the corresponding early warning methods. The gray relational degree analysis method can incorporate well the variables for the establishment of the BP neural network prediction model.

To study drivers’ driving behaviour in dilemma zones at signalized intersections, dilemma zones at signalized intersections are taken as the research objects. Based on analyzing the driving characteristics of motor vehicles. And collect the driving behavior parameters of video observations and road parameters of field observations, take these parameters as the factors which influence the drivers’ decision, conduct the significance analysis with SPSS(Statistical Product Service Solutions) for significant influencing factors, and then take these factors as the input value of BP(Back Propagation) neural network model, BP neural network model is set up and tested based on TensorFlow in Python. The prediction model of drivers’ decision-making in dilemma zone of signalized intersections under different speed limits is obtained, the research shows that the lower the speed limit, the better the accuracy of the intersection prediction. Further verified by comparison with the prediction model of drivers’ decision-making based on binary logistic, the accuracy of different prediction models is analyzed based on actual driver decisions.

Sea surface temperature (SST) is one of the most important parameters in air–sea interaction, and its accurate prediction is of great significance in the study of global climate change. However, SST is affected by heat flux, ocean dynamic processes, cloud coverage, and other factors, which means it contains linear and nonlinear components. Existing prediction models, especially single prediction models, cannot effectively handle these linear and nonlinear components in the meantime, degrading their accuracy concerning the prediction of SST. To remedy this weakness, this paper proposes a novel prediction model by the Lagrange multiplier method to combine the auto-regressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) model and the back propagation (BP) neural network model, where these two models have superior prediction performance for linear and nonlinear components, respectively. Moreover, the genetic algorithm is exploited to construct the genetic algorithm BP (GABP) neural network to further improve the performance of the proposed model. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed model, experiments predicting the SST based on historic time-series data are performed. The experiment results indicate that the mean absolute error (MAE) of the ARIMA-GABP model is only 0.3033 °C and the root mean square error (RMSE) is 0.3970 °C, which is better than the ARIMA model, BP neural network model, long short-term memory (LSTM) model, GABP neural network model, and ensemble empirical model decomposition BP model among various datasets. Therefore, the proposed model has superior and robust performance concerning predicting SST.

For the purpose of analyzing the application of back propagation (BP) neural network model in retinal vascular segmentation of color fundus images, in this study, the traditional BP neural network was first improved by adopting the additional momentum method. Second, adaptive histogram, morphological background subtraction, Gauss preprocessing matching filter and Heisen matrix were used to enhance the image and extract the features. Third, the retinal vascular segmentation algorithm for color fundus images was constructed based on optimized BP neural network. Finally, the DRIVE and MESSIDOR data sets of color fundus images were introduced to compare the proposed algorithm with the convolutional neural network (CNN) and pulse-coupled neural network (PCNN) algorithms in terms of performance. In addition, the three algorithms were also compared in terms of the sensitivity (Se), specificity (Sp), accuracy (Ac), average operation time for each image and F1 value. The results show that the BP neural network algorithm proposed in this study shows obvious advantage over the other two algorithms in the segmentation of color fundus images. In the DRIVE data set, the Se (81.37%), Sp (90.55%) and Ac (95.82%) of BP algorithm are the highest among the three; in the MESSIDOR data set, the Se (85.22%), Sp (91.08%) and Ac (96.16%) of BP algorithm are also highest; in the DRIVE and MESSIDOR data sets, the operation time of BP algorithm is (28.46 ± 3.19 ms; 24.73 ± 4.81 ms, respectively), which are significantly less than the other two algorithms. Besides, the F1 value of the proposed algorithm is obviously higher than that the other two algorithms. As a result, it is concluded that compared with the CNN algorithm and the PCNN algorithm, the proposed algorithm is more effective in the retinal vascular segmentation of color fundus images; the capillaries have better connectivity, and the proposed algorithm can improve the segmentation Ac while reducing the operation time.

Prediction model of end-point phosphorus content in BOF steelmaking process based on PCA and BP neural network

In view of emerging applications of alpha+beta titanium alloys in aerospace and defense, we have aimed to develop a Back propagation neural network (BPNN) model capable of predicting the properties of these alloys as functions of alloy composition and/or thermomechanical processing parameters. The optimized BPNN model architecture was based on the sigmoid transfer function and has one hidden layer with ten nodes. The BPNN model showed excellent predictability of five properties: Tensile strength (r: 0.96), yield strength (r: 0.93), beta transus (r: 0.96), specific heat capacity (r: 1.00) and density (r: 0.99). The developed BPNN model was in agreement with the experimental data in demonstrating the individual effects of alloying elements in modulating the above properties. This model can serve as the platform for the design and development of new alpha+beta titanium alloys in order to attain desired strength, density and specific heat capacity.

To analyze and predict the striking velocity range of stick blunt instruments in different populations, and to provide basic data for the biomechanical analysis of blunt force injuries in forensic identification. Based on the Photron FASTCAM SA3 high-speed camera, Photron FASTCAM Viewer 4.0 and SPSS 26.0 software, the tester's maximum striking velocity of stick blunt instruments and related factors were calculated and analyzed, and inputed to the backpropagation (BP) neural network for training. The trained and verified BP neural network was used as the prediction model. A total of 180 cases were tested and 470 pieces of data were measured. The maximum striking velocity range was 11.30-35.99 m/s. Among them, there were 122 female data, the maximum striking velocity range was 11.63-29.14 m/s; there were 348 male data, the maximum striking velocity range was 20.11-35.99 m/s. The maximum striking velocity of stick blunt instruments increased with the increase of weight and height, but there was no obvious increase trend in the male group; the maximum striking velocity decreased with age, but there was no obvious downward trend in the female group. The maximum striking velocity of stick blunt instruments has no significant correlation with the material and strike posture. The root mean square error (RMSE), the mean absolute error (MAE) and the coefficient of determination (R2) of the prediction results by using BP neural network were 2.16, 1.63 and 0.92, respectively. The prediction model of BP neural network can meet the demand of predicting the maximum striking velocity of different populations.

In view of the problem that it is difficult to predict the output in an oilfield which affected by multiple variables, a back propagation (BP) neural network model is built to predict the output in oilfield because the classic statistical method and static model can not meet the demand of precision for the nonlinear and uncertain system. Effective depth, permeability, porosity and water content are used as the input of neural network and oilfield output as the output of the neural network. The results show that this prediction approach is very effective and has higher accuracy. The results show that the model can forecast the oilfield output with accuracy comparable to other classic methods. So the BP neural network is an effective method to predict the oilfield output with high accuracy. The application of this approach can supply reliable data for the development of oilfield and decrease the risks for the exploitation.

Pavement surface texture evaluation is mainly analyzed based on elevation data in previous research, and attention also need to be paid to wavelength information. Furthermore, a well-established relationship model between surface texture and skid resistance for real road sections still needs further investigation to help provide useful information on appropriate maintenance time considering skid resistance attenuation. In this research, the macro-texture of asphalt pavement was evaluated from different aspects, including elevation, wavelength information, and geometry, and the relationship models between the macro-texture and skid resistance (at both low and high speeds) were established and compared using the multiple linear regression (MLR) and back propagation (BP) neural network to recommend a suitable one. In order to achieve this, this study monitored anti-skidding performance and the macro-texture of six road sections for 18 months. Firstly, the Dynamic Friction Coefficient (DFC) test and core drilling were conducted on site at three different service times. Additionally, a laboratory accelerated loading test was carried out on specimens prepared by similar material composition to one of the road sections, and the British Pendulum Number (BPN) was tested after different passes of loading. Secondly, 3D laser scanning was carried out on core samples from road sections and laboratory specimens after different passes of loading. The correlation degree between macro-texture indexes and anti-skidding performance was analyzed with the grey correlation entropy analysis method. Finally, the relationship models between the anti-skidding performance at high and low speeds and macro-texture were established based on the MLR and BP neural network. The results indicate that the macro-texture indexes calculated based on elevation data to characterize vertical irregularities have a good correlation with the skid resistance despite the different service times and pavement types. Compared with the BP neural network model, the MLR model has low correlation and noticeable error. The relationship model between F60 (DFC at the speed of 60 km/h) and macro-texture could be well established by the BP neural network. In addition, the relationship between F20, BPN, and pavement surface macro-texture is poor, making it impossible to establish a model with good correlation. Generally, it is recommended to use the BP neural network to establish the relationship model between macro-texture and skid resistance.

ObjectiveConsidering the complex and nonlinear relationship between characteristic parameters of tumors (location and morphology) and lung dose‐volume parameters of patients with esophageal cancer (EPC) undergoing intensity‐modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), the model identification method of artificial neural network (ANN) was adopted to build the model to predict lung dose‐volume parameters under different characteristic parameters of tumors. The goal is to enhance the efficiency and quality of radiotherapy planning and reduce the risk of radiation‐induced lung injury (RILI) by providing pre‐planning dose predictions.Methods1). In the previous research work, a retrospective analysis was done on 103 cases of patients with EPC who were treated by radiotherapy, in which a linear regression model was employed and had proved the association between tumor morphology [including tumor relative length (L) and “tumor axial cross‐sectional area” (S)] and lung dose‐volume parameters (including V5, V10, V20 and V30 of lungs). 2). Building on earlier research, this study uses curve regression analysis to further explore the effect of tumor relative position (P) on lung dose‐volume parameters of patients with EPC undergoing IMRT. 3). A backpropagation (BP) neural network model was constructed with P, L, and S as inputs and lung dose‐volume parameters as outputs to establish their quantitative relationship. 4). Genetic algorithm (GA) was combined with BP neural network to optimize the initial weights and thresholds of BP neural network and avoid the model from falling into local optima, so as to improve the performance of BP neural network model.Results1). Quadratic regression models were applied to analyze the relationship of P with V5 and V10 of the lung, yielding adjusted R2 values of 0.177 and 0.081, respectively, with statistically significant regression coefficients (p < 0.01). The results suggest that as P increases, V5 and V10 initially increase, then decrease. Linear regression models were applied to analyze the relationship of P with V20 and V30 of the lung, yielding adjusted R2 values of 0.06 and 0.072, respectively, with significant regression coefficients (p < 0.01). The results show that both V20 and V30 decrease as P increases. 2). The finding of this study indicates that the modeling method of BP neural network can realize the prediction of lung dose‐volume parameters under different characteristic parameters of tumors. The GA‐BP model showed slight improvements in prediction accuracy (PA) and error index (EI) compared to the BP model alone. For both models, prediction accuracy is highest for V5, followed by V10 and V20, with V30 being the least accurate. Notably, both the BP and GA‐BP neural networks achieve outstanding recognition accuracy for V5, with EI and PA values of 0.121 and 88.61% for BP, and 0.113 and 89.00% for GA‐BP, respectively. 3). The re‐optimization of four test cases with under‐predicted whole‐lung V5 and V10 values resulted in substantial improvements over the original plans. Conclusion: The ANN model developed in this study can effectively predict lung dose‐volume parameters for patients with EPC undergoing IMRT. It provides pre‐planning guidance that enhances the efficiency and quality of radiotherapy planning and reducing the risk of RILI.

Carbon emission is a significant indicator to balance regional development and environmental pollution. Currently, to achieve the global goal of carbon neutrality, many countries had formulated relevant policies to control carbon emissions in the future. It is of great importance to solve the problem of mid-term and long-term prediction of regional carbon emissions. To improve the prediction accuracy and lower the calculation cost, this paper uses the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) method to reasonably screen the driving factors of carbon emission prediction. It combines the Back Propagation (BP) neural network and Genetic Algorithm (GA) to construct the Genetic Algorithm - Back Propagation neural network (GA-BP) model for mid-term and long-term prediction. Based on historical statistics and official policy indicators, the prediction of carbon emissions in Jiangsu Province of China from 2025 to 2050 is carried out. By comparing the prediction results of the Multiple Linear Regression (MLR) model and the classic BP model, the improved GA-BP model based on Principal Component Analysis Stochastic Impacts by Regression on Population, Affluence, and Technology (PCA-STIRPAT) is significantly better than other methods in the mid-term and long-term prediction of regional carbon emissions, with a maximum relative error of 0.76% and a high prediction accuracy. This result can provide a reasonable basis for relevant parties to make decisions on controlling carbon emissions.

A new joint detection algorithm of conveyer belt with steel ropes using the BP(back propagation) neural networks model in X-ray imaging system is proposed. Detecting the state of conveyer belt is important in production process such as coal mine. And the joint detection is a primary task for further processing. Because of the neural networks' massive parallelism and easy implementation, this paper uses the BP neural networks to implement the joint detection. The result shows that, the correct recognition rate of the joint image applying the trained neural network is up to 100%, and the detecting speed is very rapid. This new algorithm for joint detecting can greatly improve the performance of processing, especial for the on-line nondestructive detection of product line. And the result demonstrates that the algorithm is effective.
