Abstract. Authorship identification can be viewed as a text categorization task. However, in this task the most frequent features appear to be the most important discriminators, there is usually a shortage of training texts, and the training texts are rarely evenly distributed over the authors. To cope with these problems, we propose tensors of second order for representing the stylistic properties of texts. Our approach requires the calculation of much fewer parameters in comparison to the traditional vector space representation. We examine various methods for building appropriate tensors taking into account that similar features should be placed in the same neighborhood. Based on an existing generalization of SVM able to handle tensors we perform experiments on corpora controlled for genre and topic and show that the proposed approach can effectively handle cases where only limited training texts are available.

A health diagnosis mechanism of rolling element bearings is necessary since the most frequent faults in rotating electrical machines occur in the bearing parts. Recently, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have redefined the state-of-the-art accuracy for bearing fault detection and identification, extracting location invariant feature mappings without the need for prior expert knowledge. With the use of convolution operations as the core of the process, CNNs consider the local spatial coherence of the input. However, one major drawback of the convolutional models is the weakness to capture global information about the input vector and to derive knowledge about the statistical properties of the latter. The authors propose a deep learning (DL) model that concatenates the features that are produced from two neural streams. Each consists of an attention mechanism that intends to learn different representations of the input vector, and so finally to produce a feature mapping that contains global and spatial locally information. Simulation results on two famous rolling element bearings fault detection benchmarks show the effectiveness of the method. In particular, the proposed DL model achieves 99.60% in the Case Western Reserve University bearing data set and 99.10% in the Paderborn University bearing data set.

This paper introduces a novel fusion neural architecture and the use of a novel Lyapunov theory-based algorithm, for the online approximation of the dynamics of nonlinear systems. The proposed neural system, in combination with the proposed update rule of the neural weights, achieves fast convergence of the identification process, ensuring at the same time stability of the error system in the sense of Lyapunov theory. The fusion neural system combines the features that are extracted from two-independent neural streams, a feedforward and a diagonal recurrent one, satisfying different design criteria of the identification task. Simulation results for five cases reveal the approximation strength of both proposed fusion neural architecture and proposed learning algorithm. Also, additional experiments demonstrate the effectiveness in cases of parameter variations and additive noise.
