Artificial neural networks (ANNs) constitute a class of flexible nonlinear models designed to mimic biological neural systems. In this entry, we introduce ANN using familiar econometric terminology and provide an overview of ANN modeling approach and its implementation methods. † Correspondence: Chung-Ming Kuan, Institute of Economics, Academia Sinica, 128 Academia Road, Sec. 2, Taipei 115, Taiwan; ckuan@econ.sinica.edu.tw. †† I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the editor, Professor Steven Durlauf, for his patience and constructive comments on early drafts of this entry.

An efficient vehicle tracking system is designed and implemented for tracking the movement of any equipped vehicle from any location at any time. The proposed system made good use of a popular technology that combines a Smartphone application with a microcontroller. This will be easy to make and inexpensive compared to others. The designed in-vehicle device works using Global Positioning System (GPS) and Global system for mobile communication / General Packet Radio Service (GSM/GPRS) technology that is one of the most common ways for vehicle tracking. The device is embedded inside a vehicle whose position is to be determined and tracked in real-time. A microcontroller is used to control the GPS and GSM/GPRS modules. The vehicle tracking system uses the GPS module to get geographic coordinates at regular time intervals. The GSM/GPRS module is used to transmit and update the vehicle location to a database. A Smartphone application is also developed for continuously monitoring the vehicle location. The Google Maps API is used to display the vehicle on the map in the Smartphone application. Thus, users will be able to continuously monitor a moving vehicle on demand using the Smartphone application and determine the estimated distance and time for the vehicle to arrive at a given destination. In order to show the feasibility and effectiveness of the system, this paper presents experimental results of the vehicle tracking system and some experiences on practical implementations.

Presently breast cancer detection is a very important role for worldwide women to save the life. Doctors and radio logistic can miss the abnormality due to inexperience in the field of cancer detection. The pre- processing is the most important step in the mammogram analysis due to poor captured mammogram image quality. Pre-processing is very important to correct and adjust the mammogram image for further study and processing. There are Different types of filtering techniques are available for pre- processing. This filters used to improve image quality, remove the noise, preserves the edges within an image, enhance and smoothen the image. In this paper, we have performed various filters namely, average filter, adaptive median filter, average or mean filter, and wiener filter.

Currently almost of the public having an own vehicle, theft is happening on parking and sometimes driving insecurity places. The safe of vehicles is extremely essential for public vehicles. Vehicle tracking and locking system installed in the vehicle, to track the place and locking engine motor. The place of the vehicle identified using Global Positioning system (GPS) and Global system mobile communication (GSM). These systems constantly watch a moving Vehicle and report the status on demand. When the theft identified, the responsible person send SMS to the microcontroller, then microcontroller issue the control signals to stop the engine motor. Authorized person need to send the password to controller to restart the vehicle and open the door. This is more secured, reliable and low cost.

Now a day ration card is very important for every home and used for various field such as family members details, to get gas connection, it act as address proof for various purposes etc. All the people having a ration card to buy the various materials (sugar, rice, oil, kerosene, etc) from the ration shops. But in this system having two draw backs, first one is weight of the material may be inaccurate due to human mistakes and secondly, if not buy the materials at the end of the month, they will sale to others without any intimation to the government and customers. In this paper, proposed an Automatic Ration Materials Distribution Based on GSM (Global System for Mobile) and RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology instead of ration cards. To get the materials in ration shops need to show the RFID tag into the RFID reader, then controller check the customer codes and details of amounts in the card. After verification, these systems show the amount details. Then customer need to enter they required materials by using keyboard, after receiving materials controller send the information to government office and customer through GSM technology. In this system provides the materials automatically without help of humans.

The main goal of this paper is to design and implement a bank locker security system based on RFID and GSM technology which can be organized in bank, secured offices and homes. In this system only authentic person can be recovered money from bank locker. We have implemented a bank locker security system based on RFID and GSM technology containing door locking system using RFID and GSM which can activate, authenticate, and validate the user and unlock the door in real time for bank locker secure access. The main advantage of using passive RFID and GSM is more secure than other systems. This system consists of microcontroller, RFID reader, GSM modem, keyboard, and LCD, in this system The RFID reader reads the id number from passive tag and send to the microcontroller, if the id number is valid then microcontroller send the SMS request to the authenticated person mobile number, for the original password to open the bank locker, if the person send the password to the microcontroller, which will verify the passwords entered by the key board and received from authenticated mobile phone. if these two passwords are matched the locker will be opened otherwise it will be remain in locked position, This system is more secure than other systems because two passwords required for verification. This system also creates a log containing check-in and check-out of each user along with basic information of user.

Cancer is one of the most leading causes of deaths among the women in the world. Among the cancer diseases, breast cancer is especially a concern in women. Mammography is one of the methods to find tumor in the breast, which is helpful for the doctor or radiologists to detect the cancer. Doctor or radiologists can miss the abnormality due to inexperience’s in the field of cancer detection. Segmentation is very valuable for doctor and radiologists to analysis the data in the mammogram. Accuracy rate of breast cancer in mammogram depends on the image segmentation. This paper is a survey of recent clustering techniques for detection of breast cancer. These fuzzy clustering algorithms have been widely studied and applied in a variety of application areas. In order to improve the efficiency of the searching process clustering techniques recommended. In this paper, we have presented a survey of clustering techniques.
