In recent years artificial neural networks (ANNs) have been applied to many geotechnical engineering problems with some degree of success. With respect to the design of pile foundations, accurate prediction of pile settlement is necessary to ensure appropriate structural and serviceability performan

β¦ Synopsis
This paper presents the results of a study that relied on trainable neural network classiΓΏers to identify and remove bird-contaminated data from wind measurements recorded by a 1290-MHz wind proΓΏler. A wind proΓΏler is a Doppler radar system measuring the three-dimensional wind ΓΏeld. Migrating birds crossing the radar beam can lead to erroneous wind observations. Bird removal was performed by training conventional feedforward neural networks (FFNNs) and quantum neural networks (QNNs) to identify and remove bird-contaminated data recorded by a 1290-MHz wind proΓΏler. A series of experiments evaluated several sets of input features extracted from wind proΓΏler data, various FFNNs and QNNs of di erent sizes, and criteria employed for identifying birds in wind proΓΏler data.
