This paper investigates the use of three back-propagation training algorithms, Levenberg-Marquardt, conjugate gradient and resilient back-propagation, for the two case studies, stream-flow forecasting and determination of lateral stress in cohesionless soils. Several neural network (NN) algorithms have been reported in the literature. They include various representations and architectures and t...

This paper presents analysis of a modified Feed Forward Multilayer Perceptron (FMP) by inserting an ARMA (Auto Regressive Moving Average) model at each neuron (processor node) with the Backp ropagation learning algorithm. The stability analysis is presented to establish the convergence theory of the Back propagation algorithm based on the Lyapunov function. Furthermore, the analysis extends the...

in this paper, an adaptive attitude control algorithm is developed based on neural network for a satellite using four reaction wheels in a tetrahedron configuration. then, an attitude control based on feedback linearization control has been designed and uncertainties in the moment of inertia matrix and disturbances torque have been considered. in order to eliminate the effect of these uncertain...

This paper investigates the ability of several alternate models of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) to predict the probability of occurrence of Hypertension (HT) in a mixed patient population. To do this a two-layer feed-forward neural network with 13 inputs and 1 output was created with a single hidden layer . Different types of networks structures, such as NEWFF (feed-forward back propagation ...

-Artificial Neural Networks are finding many uses in the Medical diagnosis applications. ANN plays a vital role in the medical field in solving various health problems like acute diseases and other mild diseases. The goal of this paper is to evaluate Artificial Neural Network in disease diagnosis. Three cases are studied. The first one is diabetes disease, data is the risk factors and their str...

Since decades, face recognition has become an active area of research in computer vision and psychology. The rapid developments of face recognition are being fueled by numerous advances in computer vision. An ongoing challenge in this field is to design an effective human-computer interaction (HCII). In this paper we will study the latest work done that has been done in the field of facial expr...

Classification of imbalanced data is pervasive but it is a difficult problem to solve. In order to improve the classification of imbalanced data, this letter proposes a new error function for the error backpropagation algorithm of multilayer perceptrons. The error function intensifies weight-updating for the minority class and weakens weight-updating for the majority class. We verify the effect...
