This paper presents a novel hybridization of the fuzzy logic, the neural network and the coevolutionary algorithm for building a fuzzy-neural system (or a Mamdani fuzzy system) from data. The novel hybridization uses the coevolution of many species, and proposes the coevolution of groups of similar species, both for the optimization of the structure of the fuzzy-neural network. In the fuzzy-neu...

Multilayer perceptron network (MLP), FIR neural network and Elman neural network were compared in four different time series prediction tasks. Time series include load in an electric network series, fluctuations in a far-infrared laser series, numerically generated series and behaviour of sunspots series. FIR neural network was trained with temporal backpropagation learning algorithm. Results s...

The goal has been to construct a supervised artificial neural network that learns incrementally an unknown mapping. As a result a network consisting of a combination of ART2 and backpropagation is proposed and is called an "ART2/BP" network. The ART2 network is used to build and focus a supervised backpropagation network. The ART2/BP network has the advantage of being able to dynamically expand...

Classification is one of the most important task in application areas of artificial neural networks (ANN).Training neural networks is a complex task in the supervised learning field of research. The main difficulty in adopting ANN is to find the most appropriate combination of learning, transfer and training function for the classification task. We compared the performances of three types of tr...

Large multilayer neural networks trained with backpropagation have recently achieved state-ofthe-art results in a wide range of problems. However, using backprop for neural net learning still has some disadvantages, e.g., having to tune a large number of hyperparameters to the data, lack of calibrated probabilistic predictions, and a tendency to overfit the training data. In principle, the Baye...

Least Square Backpropagation(LSB) algorithm is employed to train a three-layer neural network for segmentation of Magnetic Resonance(MR) brain images. The simulation results demonstrate the use of LSB neural Network as a promising method for the segmentation of multi-modal medical images. The training time has been dramatically reduced comparing with that of BP network. The influence of the num...

This paper presents an investigation on the trajectory control of a robot using a new type of recurrent neural network. A three-layered recurrent neural network is employed to estimate the forward dynamics model of the robot. Standard backpropagation (BP) algorithm is used as a learning algorithm for this network to minimise the difference between the robot actual response and that predicted by...

Abstract—Considering the features of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), a segmentation method of MRI based on fuzzy Gaussian basis neural network (FGBNN) is proposed. In proposed method, the fuzzy inference is realized by neural network. Gaussian basis function is used as fuzzy membership function, and error backpropagation (BP) algorithm is used to train the neural network. The experimental res...

In this paper, an efficient and scalable technique for computer network security is presented. On one hand, the decryption scheme and the public key creation used in this work are based on a multi-layer neural network that is trained by backpropagation learning algorithm. On the other hand, the encryption scheme and the private key creation process are based on Boolean algebra. This is a new po...

This section introduces multilayer perceptrons, which are the most commonly used type of neural network. The popular backpropagation training algorithm is studied in detail. The momentum and adaptive step size techniques, which are used for accelerated training, are discussed. Other acceleration techniques are briefly referenced. Several implementation issues are then examined. The issue of gen...
