The duality between particle methods and artificial neural networks.

ABSTRACT: The algorithm behind particle methods is extremely versatile and used in a variety of applications that range from molecular dynamics to astrophysics. For continuum mechanics applications, the concept of 'particle' can be generalized to include discrete portions of solid and liquid matter. This study shows that it is possible to further extend the concept of 'particle' to include artificial neurons used in Artificial Intelligence. This produces a new class of computational methods based on 'particle-neuron duals' that combines the ability of computational particles to model physical systems and the ability of artificial neurons to learn from data. The method is validated with a multiphysics model of the intestine that autonomously learns how to coordinate its contractions to propel the luminal content forward (peristalsis). Training is achieved with Deep Reinforcement Learning. The particle-neuron duality has the advantage of extending particle methods to systems where the underlying physics is only partially known, but we have observations that allow us to empirically describe the missing features in terms of reward function. During the simulation, the model evolves autonomously adapting its response to the available observations, while remaining consistent with the known physics of the system.

Nanophotonic particle simulation and inverse design using artificial neural networks.

Project description:We propose a method to use artificial neural networks to approximate light scattering by multilayer nanoparticles. We find that the network needs to be trained on only a small sampling of the data to approximate the simulation to high precision. Once the neural network is trained, it can simulate such optical processes orders of magnitude faster than conventional simulations. Furthermore, the trained neural network can be used to solve nanophotonic inverse design problems by using back propagation, where the gradient is analytical, not numerical.

Predicting in situ nanoparticle behavior using multiple particle tracking and artificial neural networks.

Project description:Predictive models of nanoparticle transport can drive design of nanotherapeutic platforms to overcome biological barriers and achieve localized delivery. In this paper, we demonstrate the ability of artificial neural networks to predict both nanoparticle properties, such as size and protein adsorption, and aspects of the brain microenvironment, such as cell internalization, viscosity, and brain region by using large (>100?000) trajectory datasets collected via multiple particle tracking in in vitro gel models of the brain and cultured organotypic brain slices. Our neural network achieved a 0.75 recall score when predicting gel viscosity based on trajectory datasets, compared to 0.49 using an obstruction scaling model. When predicting in situ nanoparticle size based on trajectory datasets, neural networks achieved a 0.90 recall score compared to 0.83 using an optimized Stokes-Einstein predictor. To distinguish between nanoparticles of different sizes in more complex nanoparticle mixtures, our neural network achieved up to a recall score of 0.85. Even in cases of more nuanced output variables where mathematical models are not available, such as protein adhesion, neural networks retained the ability to distinguish between particle populations (recall score of 0.89). These findings demonstrate how trajectory datasets in combination with machine learning techniques can be used to characterize the particle-microenvironment interaction space.

Optimizing particle size for targeting diseased microvasculature: from experiments to artificial neural networks.

Project description:BackgroundNanoparticles with different sizes, shapes, and surface properties are being developed for the early diagnosis, imaging, and treatment of a range of diseases. Identifying the optimal configuration that maximizes nanoparticle accumulation at the diseased site is of vital importance. In this work, using a parallel plate flow chamber apparatus, it is demonstrated that an optimal particle diameter (d(opt)) exists for which the number (n(s)) of nanoparticles adhering to the vessel walls is maximized. Such a diameter depends on the wall shear rate (S). Artificial neural networks are proposed as a tool to predict n(s) as a function of S and particle diameter (d), from which to eventually derive d(opt). Artificial neural networks are trained using data from flow chamber experiments. Two networks are used, ie, ANN231 and ANN2321, exhibiting an accurate prediction for n(s) and its complex functional dependence on d and S. This demonstrates that artificial neural networks can be used effectively to minimize the number of experiments needed without compromising the accuracy of the study. A similar procedure could potentially be used equally effectively for in vivo analysis.

Conditions for duality between fluxes and concentrations in biochemical networks.

Project description:Mathematical and computational modelling of biochemical networks is often done in terms of either the concentrations of molecular species or the fluxes of biochemical reactions. When is mathematical modelling from either perspective equivalent to the other? Mathematical duality translates concepts, theorems or mathematical structures into other concepts, theorems or structures, in a one-to-one manner. We present a novel stoichiometric condition that is necessary and sufficient for duality between unidirectional fluxes and concentrations. Our numerical experiments, with computational models derived from a range of genome-scale biochemical networks, suggest that this flux-concentration duality is a pervasive property of biochemical networks. We also provide a combinatorial characterisation that is sufficient to ensure flux-concentration duality.The condition prescribes that, for every two disjoint sets of molecular species, there is at least one reaction complex that involves species from only one of the two sets. When unidirectional fluxes and molecular species concentrations are dual vectors, this implies that the behaviour of the corresponding biochemical network can be described entirely in terms of either concentrations or unidirectional fluxes.

Green Supplier Selection Using Fuzzy Multiple-Criteria Decision-Making Methods and Artificial Neural Networks.

Project description:In recent years, environmental awareness has increased considerably, and in order to decrease endangerments such as air and water pollution, and also global warming, green procurement should be employed. Therefore, in the assessment of suppliers, their environmental performance should be taken into consideration along with other criteria for supplier selection. Raising awareness of sustainability in production and conservation and protection of the environment is very important both for the whole environment and for the company itself by increasing its competitive advantage. And, one of the steps to achieve this is for the companies to try to select green suppliers. So, the purpose of this study is to raise awareness and tackle the need for green supplier selection and, using multiple-criteria decision-making models, to elaborate a case study regarding this. A survey was conducted in a manufacturing firm. The data were analysed, and fuzzy MCDM (multicriteria decision-making) methods and artificial neural networks were implemented. Fuzzy methods are the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (fuzzy AHP), fuzzy TOPSIS, and fuzzy ELECTRE. ANN supports the result of fuzzy MCDM models from the profit side. ANN can make the best estimate of the current year based on historical data. Fuzzy MCDM methods will also find good solutions using the available data but will produce different solutions as there are different decision-making methods. It is aimed to produce a synergy from the solutions obtained here and to produce a better solution. Instead of a single method, it would be more accurate to produce a better solution than the solution provided by all of them. The dominant result has been obtained using the committee fuzzy MCDM and ANN to select the best green supplier.

Dynamic artificial neural networks with affective systems.

Project description:Artificial neural networks (ANNs) are processors that are trained to perform particular tasks. We couple a computational ANN with a simulated affective system in order to explore the interaction between the two. In particular, we design a simple affective system that adjusts the threshold values in the neurons of our ANN. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate that this simple affective system can control the firing rate of the ensemble of neurons in the ANN, as well as to explore the coupling between the affective system and the processes of long term potentiation (LTP) and long term depression (LTD), and the effect of the parameters of the affective system on its performance. We apply our networks with affective systems to a simple pole balancing example and briefly discuss the effect of affective systems on network performance.

Co-crystal Prediction by Artificial Neural Networks*.

Project description:A significant amount of attention has been given to the design and synthesis of co-crystals by both industry and academia because of its potential to change a molecule's physicochemical properties. Yet, difficulties arise when searching for adequate combinations of molecules (or coformers) to form co-crystals, hampering the efficient exploration of the target's solid-state landscape. This paper reports on the application of a data-driven co-crystal prediction method based on two types of artificial neural network models and co-crystal data present in the Cambridge Structural Database. The models accept pairs of coformers and predict whether a co-crystal is likely to form. By combining the output of multiple models of both types, our approach shows to have excellent performance on the proposed co-crystal training and validation sets, and has an estimated accuracy of 80 % for molecules for which previous co-crystallization data is unavailable.

Forecasting outpatient visits using empirical mode decomposition coupled with back-propagation artificial neural networks optimized by particle swarm optimization.

Project description:Accurately predicting the trend of outpatient visits by mathematical modeling can help policy makers manage hospitals effectively, reasonably organize schedules for human resources and finances, and appropriately distribute hospital material resources. In this study, a hybrid method based on empirical mode decomposition and back-propagation artificial neural networks optimized by particle swarm optimization is developed to forecast outpatient visits on the basis of monthly numbers. The data outpatient visits are retrieved from January 2005 to December 2013 and first obtained as the original time series. Second, the original time series is decomposed into a finite and often small number of intrinsic mode functions by the empirical mode decomposition technique. Third, a three-layer back-propagation artificial neural network is constructed to forecast each intrinsic mode functions. To improve network performance and avoid falling into a local minimum, particle swarm optimization is employed to optimize the weights and thresholds of back-propagation artificial neural networks. Finally, the superposition of forecasting results of the intrinsic mode functions is regarded as the ultimate forecasting value. Simulation indicates that the proposed method attains a better performance index than the other four methods.

Particle-antiparticle duality and fractionalization of topological chiral solitons.

Project description:Although a prototypical Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) soliton exhibits various important topological concepts including particle-antiparticle (PA) symmetry and fractional fermion charges, there have been only few advances in exploring such properties of topological solitons beyond the SSH model. Here, by considering a chirally extended double-Peierls-chain model, we demonstrate novel PA duality and fractional charge e/2 of topological chiral solitons even under the chiral symmetry breaking. This provides a counterexample to the belief that chiral symmetry is necessary for such PA relation and fractionalization of topological solitons in a time-reversal invariant topological system. Furthermore, we discover that topological chiral solitons are re-fractionalized into two subsolitons which also satisfy the PA duality. As a result, such dualities and fractionalizations support the topological [Formula: see text] algebraic structures. Our findings will inspire researches seeking feasible and promising topological systems, which may lead to new practical applications such as solitronics.

Artificial neural networks for quantitative online NMR spectroscopy.

Project description:Industry 4.0 is all about interconnectivity, sensor-enhanced process control, and data-driven systems. Process analytical technology (PAT) such as online nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is gaining in importance, as it increasingly contributes to automation and digitalization in production. In many cases up to now, however, a classical evaluation of process data and their transformation into knowledge is not possible or not economical due to the insufficiently large datasets available. When developing an automated method applicable in process control, sometimes only the basic data of a limited number of batch tests from typical product and process development campaigns are available. However, these datasets are not large enough for training machine-supported procedures. In this work, to overcome this limitation, a new procedure was developed, which allows physically motivated multiplication of the available reference data in order to obtain a sufficiently large dataset for training machine learning algorithms. The underlying example chemical synthesis was measured and analyzed with both application-relevant low-field NMR and high-field NMR spectroscopy as reference method. Artificial neural networks (ANNs) have the potential to infer valuable process information already from relatively limited input data. However, in order to predict the concentration at complex conditions (many reactants and wide concentration ranges), larger ANNs and, therefore, a larger training dataset are required. We demonstrate that a moderately complex problem with four reactants can be addressed using ANNs in combination with the presented PAT method (low-field NMR) and with the proposed approach to generate meaningful training data.
