An architecture for reasoning with pattern-based if–then rules is proposed. By processing patterns as real-valued vectors and classifying similar if–then rules into clusters in long-term memory, the proposed system can store pattern-based if–then rules of propositional logic, including conjunctions, disjunctions, and negations. Moreover, it achieves some important properties for intelligent systems such as incremental learning, generalization, avoidance of duplicate results, and robustness to noise. ...

Self-organizing incremental neural network (SOINN) is introduced. SOINN is able to represent the topology structure of input data, incrementally learn new knowledge without destroy of learned knowledge, and process online non-stationary data. It is free of prior conditions such as a suitable network structure or network size, and it is also robust to noise. SOINN has been adapted for unsupervised learning, supervised learning, semi-supervised learning, and active learning tasks. Also, SOINN is used ...

Ultrasonic assisted extraction and antioxidant activity of water-soluble polysaccharide (MSP) from mung bean (Vigna radiata L.) hull were investigated. After deproteinization, MSP was isolated and purified by a DEAE-cellulose anion-exchange column and a Sephadex G-100 gel-permeation column. Two acid polysaccharide fractions, MP1 and MP2, were characterized by FT-IR, GC, and gel-permeation chromatography (GPC). Results indicated that MP1 and MP2 were acid heteropolysaccharide with 9.9% and 36.4% of ...

This paper presents an online semi-supervised clustering algorithm based on a self-organizing incremental neural network (SOINN). Using labeled data and a large amount of unlabeled data, the proposed semi-supervised SOINN (ssSOINN) can automatically learn the topology of input data distribution without any prior knowledge such as the number of nodes or a good network structure; it can subsequently divide the structure into sub-structures as the need arises. Experimental results we obtained for artificial ...

The binding interaction between (−)-epigallocatechin (EGC) with bovine β-lactoglobulin (βLG) was investigated by fluorescence, circular dichroism (CD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy methods. The binding parameters were determined by Stern–Volmer equation and the thermodynamic parameters were calculated according to the van't Hoff equation. The results suggested that βLG was bound by EGC, which resulted in change of native conformation of βLG. van der Waals interactions and hydrogen bonding ...

This paper proposes a general associative memory (GAM) system that combines the functions of other typical associative memory (AM) systems. The GAM is a network consisting of three layers: an input layer, a memory layer, and an associative layer. The input layer accepts key vectors, response vectors, and the associative relationships between these vectors. The memory layer stores the input vectors incrementally to corresponding classes. The associative layer builds associative relationships between ...

This paper presents an on-line unsupervised learning mechanism for unlabeled data that are polluted by noise. Using a similarity threshold-based and a local error-based insertion criterion, the system is able to grow incrementally and to accommodate input patterns of on-line non-stationary data distribution. A definition of a utility parameter, the error-radius, allows this system to learn the number of nodes needed to solve a task. The use of a new technique for removing nodes in low probability ...

This study presents a new vector quantization method that generates codewords incrementally. New codewords are inserted in regions of the input vector space where the distortion error is highest until the desired number of codewords (or a distortion error threshold) is achieved. Adoption of the adaptive distance function greatly increases the proposed method's performance. During the incremental process, a removal–insertion technique is used to fine-tune the codebook to make the proposed method independent ...

The hydrolysate from duck egg white protein (DEWP) prepared by “SEEP–Alcalase” at degree of hydrolysis (DH) value of 21% (namely HSA21) exhibited high antioxidant capacity in different oxidation systems. A consecutive chromatographic method was then developed for separation and purification of HSA21, including ion-exchange chromatography, macroporous adsorption resin (MAR) and gel filter chromatography. The final peptides “P21-3–75-B” were obtained with significantly enhanced antioxidant activity (p < 0. ...

Results showed that the anticoagulant activity of the hydrolysates of BmK protein was closely related to both the enzyme type and the degree of hydrolysis. Alcalase AF showed to be the best enzymes for the hydrolysis. And the hydrolysis degree (DH) was closely related with the anticoagulant activity of the hydrolyzate. At a DH value of 18% with Alcalase AF, ...

By using continuous restricted Boltzmann machines (CRBMs) to construct a DBN, we update the classical DBN to model continuous data. The structure of DBN is optimally determined through experiments for application in exchange rates forecasting. Also, conjugate gradient method is applied to accelerate the learning for DBN.
