In this study, we focused on the gait of Parkinson’s disease (PD) and presented a gray box model for it. We tried to present a model for basal ganglia structure in order to generate stride time interval signal in model output for healthy and PD states. Because of feedback role of dopamine neurotransmitter in basal ganglia, this part is modelled by “Elman Network”, which is a neural network stru...

Bedload transport is an essential component of river dynamics and estimation of its rate is important to many aspects of river management. In this study, measured bedload by Helley- Smith sampler was used to estimate the bedload transport of Kurau River in Malaysia. An artificial neural network, genetic programming and a combination of genetic programming and a neural network were used to estim...

this paper intends to offer a new iterative method based on articial neural networks for finding solution of a fuzzy equations system. our proposed fuzzied neural network is a ve-layer feedback neural network that corresponding connection weights to output layer are fuzzy numbers. this architecture of articial neural networks, can get a real input vector and calculates its corresponding fu...

production of highly viscous tar sand bitumen using steam assisted gravity drainage (sagd) with a pair of horizontal wells has advantages over conventional steam flooding. this paper explores the use of artificial neural networks (anns) as an alternative to the traditional sagd simulation approach. feed forward, multi-layered neural network meta-models are trained through the back-error-propaga...

This paper discusses the design of neural network and fuzzy logic controllers using genetic algorithms, for real-time control of flows in sewerage networks. The soft controllers operate in a critical control range, with a simple set-point strategy governing "easy" cases. The genetic algorithm designs controllers and set-points by repeated application of a simulator. A comparison between neural ...

Combining neural network with evolutionary algorithms leads to evolutionary artificial neural network. Evolutionary algorithms like GA to train neural nets choose their structure or design related aspects like the functions of their neurons. Along basic concepts of neural networks and genetic algorithm this paper includes a flexible method for solving travelling salesman problem using genetic a...

ABSTRACT-Determining hydraulic conductivity of soil is difficult, expensive, and time-consuming. In this study, Algorithm Genetic and geostatistical analysis and Neural Networks method are used to estimate soil saturated hydraulic conductivity using the properties of particle size distribution. The data were gathered from 134soil profiles from soil and lander form studies of the Ardabil Agricul...
