Brown University

Brown University is a private Ivy League university located in Providence, Rhode Island. Founded in 1764 prior to American independence from the British Empire as the College in the English Colony of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations early in the reign of King George III (1760–1820), Brown is the third-oldest institution of higher education in New England and seventh oldest in the United States.

Abstract The construction of a network architecture, which contains units of different types at the same hidden layer is not commonly done. Such construction makes model selection more challenging, as it requires the determination of each unit type in addition to the determination of the network size. A more common approach to achieving higher architecture is via the use of more units [7]. The potential problem of such a construction is over-flexibility which leads to over-fitting. Donoho and Johnstone [6] have shown that a function can be decomposed into two parts: the radial part and the ridge (projection based) part, and that the two parts are mutually exclusive. This has motivated us to construct an architecture that has a hidden layer with projection and RBF units. We have introduced a training methodology for a hybrid MLP/RBF network for classification [4, 2] and regression [3]. During network construction, the determination of additional hidden units is based on an incremental strategy which searches for regions in input space for which the input/output function approximation leads to highest residual (error in case of classification). This approach, coupled with optimal determination of initial weight values for the additional hidden units, constructs a computationally efficient training algorithm which appears to scale up with the complexity of the data, better than regular MLP or RBF methods. The network construction and training includes several means to a...

Step Ahead Final Prototype Presentation May 9th, 2007

TM Do not reproduce without permission, © MiME 2009 Good afternoon. My anme is Alex Baker and I am one of the founders of Minds in Motion Electronics. We at MiME see an opportunity. to revitalize--to revolutionaize--the toy market. Toys are fascinating because they represent the creativity, imagination, and technological advancement of a society at any given point---as technology advances, toys get better…graphics get more realistic…robotics get more life-like…batteries extend longer…but every once in a while, a pardadigm shift occurs and a technology completely disrupts the way we think about gaming. Every technology that is developed goes through phases and eventually becomes affordable or accesible enough to enter into consumer industries, such as toys… We believe eeg-elecotrocynography--is set to transofmrm the industry. Of all the biofeedback forms tested--smells in movei teheaters in LA…video games that inflict actual pain in Japan--…we believe EEG is the most feasible evolution in gaming that will lead the way in to an entirely new era. Every ponce in a while a technology offers an opportunity for an entirely revolutionary pardaigm shift. Now is that time. The introduction of electrocynography--eeg--technology can allow us to transcend the physical realm, bringing traditional toys to a place only known in fantasy worlds and imagination. MiME has the ability to stimulate the minds of America’s youth by brining the fantastical concept of mind-control, actual brainpower, into reality.
