In this paper we present an adaptive appoach to observe the joint velocity for rigid robot manipulators. This approach is based on the neural network and sliding mode technique. The adopted neural network is of the MLP (Multi Layer Perceptron) type with one hidden layer. The functions of the dynamic model of the robot manipulator are assumed unknown. The neural network parameters are adapted on...

Ki-Chul Kim Dept. of Info and Comm KAIST Seoul, 130-012, Korea This paper describes a way of neural hardware implementation with the analog-digital mixed mode neural chip. The full custom neural VLSI of Universally Reconstructible Artificial Neural network (URAN) is used to implement Korean speech recognition system. A multi-layer perceptron with linear neurons is trained successfully under the...

A hierarchical neural network model for the identiication of arbitrary contour shapes is presented. Tolerance towards translation, rotation and scaling is achieved far more cost-eeectively than for a fully connected multi-layer perceptron.

precipitation is one of important parameters of climatology and atmospheric science that have more importance in human life. recently, extensive flood and drought entered many damage to most parts of the world. precipitation forecasting and alerts management role is responsible for these problems. today, artificial neural networks are one of developed method that applied for estimate and predic...

objective(s): this study aims to evaluate and predict the thermal conductivity of iron oxide nanofluid at different temperatures and volume fractions by artificial neural network (ann) and correlation using experimental data. methods: two-layer perceptron feedforward artificial neural network and backpropagation levenberg-marquardt (bp-lm) training algorithm are used to predict the thermal cond...

This paper introduces a flexible neural tree (FNT) with necessary number of hidden units and is generated initially as a flexible multi-layer feed-forward neural network evolved using an evolutionary procedure and also considers the approximation of sufficiently smooth multivariable function with a multilayer perceptron. For a given neural tree with approximation order, explicit formulas for th...
