In this work, on the basis of a back-propagation(BP) neural network model,a method to determine the gamma point source efficiency is developed and validated. The efficiency of the point sources ^(137)Cs and ^(60)Co at discrete radial angles, detection distances, and gamma-ray energies is measured, and the BP neural network prediction model is constructed using MATLAB. The gamma point source efficiencies at different radial angles, detection distances, and gamma-ray energies are predicted quickly and accurately using this nonlinear prediction model. The results show that the maximum error between the predicted and experimental values is 3.732% at 661.661 keV, 11π/24, and 35 cm, and those under other conditions are less than 3%. The gamma point source efficiencies obtained using the BP neural network model are in good agreement with experimental data.展开更多

Thus, quality assessments of the results obtained from a neural network are necessary to evaluate the neural network. Assessing the image quality of neural networks using traditional objective measurements is not appropriate because neural networks are nonstationary and nonlinear. In contrast, subjective assessments are trustworthy, although they are time-and energy-consuming for radiologists. Model observers that mimic subjective assessment require the mean and covariance of images, which are calculated from numerous image samples;however, this has not yet been applied to the evaluation of neural networks. In this study, we propose an analytical method for noise propagation from a single projection to efficiently evaluate convolutional neural networks(CNNs) in the CT imaging field. We propagate noise through nonlinear layers in a CNN using the Taylor expansion. Nesting of the linear and nonlinear layer noise propagation constitutes the covariance estimation of the CNN. A commonly used U-net structure is adopted for validation. The results reveal that the covariance estimation obtained from the proposed analytical method agrees well with that obtained from the image samples for different phantoms, noise levels, and activation functions, demonstrating that propagating noise from only a single projection is feasible for CNN methods in CT reconstruction. In addition, we use covariance estimation to provide three measurements for the qualitative and quantitative performance evaluation of U-net. The results indicate that the network cannot be applied to projections with high noise levels and possesses limitations in terms of efficiency for processing low-noise projections. U-net is more effective in improving the image quality of smooth regions compared with that of the edge. LeakyReLU outperforms Swish in terms of noise reduction.展开更多

This study examines predictive models of the injection-to-production ratio. Firstly, the error between the fitting and actual injection-production ratio is calculated with such methods as the injection-production ratio and water-oil ratio method, the material balance method, the multiple regression method, the gray theory GM (1,1) model and the back-propogation (BP) neural network method by computer applications in this paper. The relative average errors calculated are respectively 1.67%, 1.08%, 19.2%, 1.38% and 0.88%. Secondly, the reasons for the errors from different prediction methods are analyzed theoretically, indicating that the prediction precision of the BP neural network method is high, and that it has a better self-adaptability, so that it can reflect the internal relationship between the injection-production ratio and the influencing factors. Therefore, the BP neural network method is suitable to the prediction of injection-production ratio.展开更多

How to accurately and effectively detect DDoS attacks has always been a difficult point and focus of SDN security research. Based on the characteristics of SDN, a DDoS attack detection method combining generalized entropy and PSOBP neural network is proposed. The traffic is pre-detected by the generalized entropy method deployed on the switch, and the detection result is divided into normal and abnormal. Locate the switch that issued the abnormal alarm. The controller uses the PSO-BP neural network to detect whether a DDoS attack occurs by further extracting the flow features of the abnormal switch. Experiments show that compared with other methods, the detection accurate rate is guaranteed while the CPU load of the controller is reduced, and the detection capability is better.展开更多

In order to precisely recognize human body posture,many recognition algorithms have been proposed.However, the recognition rate is relatively low. In this paper, we apply back propagation(BP) neural network as a classifier to recognizing human body posture, where signals are collected from VG350 acceleration sensor and a posture signal collection system based on WBAN is designed. Human body signal vector magnitude(SVM) and tri-axial acceleration sensor data are used to describe the human body postures. We are able to recognize 4postures: Walk, Run, Squat and Sit. Our posture recognition rate is up to 91.67%. Furthermore, we find an implied relationship between hidden layer neurons and the posture recognition rate. The proposed human body posture recognition algorithm lays the foundation for the subsequent applications.展开更多

Although joint resource allocation schemes promise huge performance improvement at the cost of cooperation among base stations,the large numbers of user equipment and base station make jointly optimizing the available resource very challenging and even prohibitive. How to decompose the resource allocation problem is a critical issue. In this paper,we exploit factor graphs to design a distributed resource allocation algorithm for ultra dense networks,which consists of power allocation,subcarrier allocation and cell association. The proposed factor graph based distributed algorithm can decompose the joint optimization problem of resource allocation into a series of low complexity subproblems with much lower dimensionality,and the original optimization problem can be efficiently solved via solving these subproblems iteratively. In addition,based on the proposed algorithm the amounts of exchanging information overhead between the resulting subprob-lems are also reduced. The proposed distributed algorithm can be understood as solving largely dimensional optimization problem in a soft manner,which is much preferred in practical scenarios. Finally,the performance of the proposed low complexity distributed algorithm is evaluated by several numerical results.展开更多
