Computational power and memory requirements for this approach are identified and compared to the performance of current computer architectures by benchmarking different processors. It is shown, that the performance of special purpose hardware, like neurocomputers, is between one and two orders of magnitude higher than the performance of mainstream hardware. On the other hand, the calculation of small neural networks is performed more efficiently on mainstream processors. Based on these results a novel concept is developed, which is tailored for the efficient calculation of bidirectional associative memories. The computational efficiency is further enhanced by the application of algorithms and storage techniques which are matched to characteristics of the application at hand.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BurgazziFioriniDeMagistrisetal.1998, author = {Burgazzi, L. and Fiorini, F. and De Magistris, W.

To perform this task a coding strategy, inspired by the biological model of human vision, for pixel data is described. The coding strategy ensures that the input data is invariant against shift, scale and rotation of the object in the input domain. The image data is used as input to a class of self organizing neural networks, the Kohonen-maps or self-organizing feature maps (SOFM). To verify this approach two test sets have been generated: the first set, consisting of artificially generated images, is used to examine the classification properties of the SOFMs; the second test set examines the clustering capabilities of the SOFM when real world image data is applied to the network after it has been preprocessed to be invariant against shift, scale and rotation. It is shown that the clustering capability of the SOFM is strongly dependant on the invariance coding of the images.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{RingbeckSchwarteBuxbaum1999, author = {Ringbeck, Thorsten and Schwarte, Rudolf and Buxbaum, Bernd}, title = {Introduction of a new opto-electrical phase-locked loop in CMOS technology: the PMD-PLL}, series = {Optical wireless communications II / [SPIE Conference on Optical Wireless Communications II], 22 September 1999, Boston, Massachusetts. - (SPIE proceedings series ; 3850)}, booktitle = {Optical wireless communications II / [SPIE Conference on Optical Wireless Communications II], 22 September 1999, Boston, Massachusetts. - (SPIE proceedings series ; 3850)}, editor = {Korevaar, Eric John}, publisher = {SPIE}, address = {Bellingham, Wash.}, isbn = {0-8194-3443-4}, issn = {0038-7355}, pages = {108 -- 116}, year = {1999}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BuxbaumSchwarteRingbeck1999, author = {Buxbaum, Bernd and Schwarte, Rudolf and Ringbeck, Thorsten}, title = {PMD-PLL: receiver structure for incoherent communication and ranging systems}, series = {Optical wireless communications II / [SPIE Conference on Optical Wireless Communications II], 22 September 1999, Boston, Massachusetts. - (SPIE proceedings series ; 3850)}, booktitle = {Optical wireless communications II / [SPIE Conference on Optical Wireless Communications II], 22 September 1999, Boston, Massachusetts. - (SPIE proceedings series ; 3850)}, editor = {Korevaar, Eric John}, publisher = {SPIE}, address = {Bellingham, Wash.}, isbn = {0-8194-3443-4}, issn = {0038-7355}, pages = {116 -- 130}, year = {1999}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BuxbaumSchwarteXuetal.1999, author = {Buxbaum, Bernd and Schwarte, Rudolf and Xu, Zhanping and Ringbeck, Thorsten and [u.a.],}, title = {Charge Transfer Simulation in PMD-Structures}, series = {Sensor 99 : proceedings / 9th Int'l Fair and Conference for Sensors, Transducers \& Systems, May 18 - 20, 1999, Exhibition Centre N{\"u}rnberg/Germany. - Vol. 2}, booktitle = {Sensor 99 : proceedings / 9th Int'l Fair and Conference for Sensors, Transducers \& Systems, May 18 - 20, 1999, Exhibition Centre N{\"u}rnberg/Germany. - Vol. 2}, publisher = {AMA Service GmbH}, address = {Wunsdorf}, pages = {427 -- 432}, year = {1999}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{MelissSpaeteLange1999, author = {Meliß, Michael and Sp{\"a}te, Frank and Lange, Harald}, title = {The Solar-Campus J{\"u}lich - an interdisciplinary project}, series = {Building a new century. 5th Conference on Solar Architecture and Design, Bonn, 27th of May 1998.

Commonly, classification is based on a single feature extracted from the original image. Here we present an architecture adapted from the Mixtures of Eaqerts algorithm which uses multiple neuml networks to integmte different features. During tmining each neural network specializes in a subset of objects or object views appropriate to the properties of the corresponding feature space. In recognition mode the system dynamically chooses the most relevant features and combines them with maximum eficiency. The remaining less relevant features arz not computed and do therefore not decelerate the-recognition process. Thus, the algorithm is well suited for ml-time applications.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{Mertens2000, author = {Mertens, Josef}, title = {Laminar leading edges: manufacturing, contamination, and operational aspects - results from the German RaWid programme}, year = {2000}, abstract = {RaWid was the German national technology programme on transonic aerodynamics and supporting technologies, lasting from 1995 to 1998. One of the main topics was laminar wing development. Besides aerodynamic design work, many operational aspects were investigated. A manufacturing concept was developed to be applied to operational laminar wings and empennages. It was built in a large scale manufacturing demonstrator with the aerodynamic shape of a 1,5 m section of the A320 fin nose. Tolerances in shape and roughness fulfilled all requirements. The construction can easily be adapted to varying stiffness and strength requirements. Weight and manufacturing costs are comparable to common nose designs. The mock-up to be designed in ALTTA is based on this manufacturing principle. Another critical point is contamination of suction surfaces. Several tests were performed to investigate perforated titanium suction surfaces at realistic operational conditions: - a one year flight test with a suction plate in the stagnation area of the Airbus "Beluga" - a one year test of several suction plates in a ground test near the airport - a one year test of a working suction ground test installation at all weather conditions. No critical results were found. There is no long term suction degradation visible. Icing conditions and ground de-icing fluids used on airports did not pose severe problems. Some problems detected require only respection of weak design constraints.}, subject = {Laminare Str{\"o}mung}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{HeitzerStaat2000, author = {Heitzer, M. and Staat, Manfred}, title = {Direct FEM approach to design-by-analysis of pressurized components}, year = {2000}, abstract = {Abstracts of the ACHEMA 2000 - International Meeting on Chemical Engineering, Environmental Protection and Biotechnology, May 22 - 27, 2000.
