The design, implementation and operation of a low power multilayer perceptron chip (Kakadu) in the framework of a cardiac arrhythmia classiication system is presented in this paper. This system, called MATIC, makes timing decisions using a decision tree, and a neural network is used to identify heartbeats with abnormal morphologies. This classiier was designed to be suitable for use in implanta...

runoff estimation is one of the main challenges encountered in water and watershed management. spatial and temporal changes of factors which influence runoff due to het-erogeneity of the basins explain the complicacy of relations. artificial neural network (ann) is one of the intelligence techniques which is flexible and doesn’t call for any much physically complex processes. these networks can...

introduction: with using multiple linear regression (mlr), can simultaneously analyses several different variables, but to get the desirable results from the mlr, the samples must be much and accurate. therefore, this method has high sensitivity and may cause errors in results. in addition, to use this method, the variable must have normal distribution and modification follow from a linear rela...

three artificial neural networks (ann) models; general regression neural network (grnn), redial basis function (rbf) and three layer multiple perceptron network were carried out to evaluate the prediction of the apparent metabolizable energy (ame) of wheat and corn from its chemical composition in broiler. input variables included: gross energy (ge), crude protein (cp), crude fiber (cf), ether ...

abstract: this paper represents a novel use of artificial neural networks in medical science. the proposed technique involves training a multi layer perceptron (mlp) (a kind of artificial neural network) with a bp learning algorithm to recognize a pattern for the diagnosing and prediction of five blood disorders, through the results of blood tests from h1 machine. the blood test parameters and ...

Tree species proportions of forest stands were estimated using ranging scatterometer called HUTSCAT. Employed estimation method was multilayer perceptron neural network with error backpropagation training algorithm. Two methods for feature extraction were tested; other based on intensity and shape of measured profiles, other only shape. Different neural network configurations were tried and it ...

alzheimer disease is one form of dementia in old age. alzheimer disease, the incurable disease, which is usually in the seventh decade of human life, shows its symptoms. the disease may be present for years without clinical symptoms. the current study identified the genes with altered expression in patients with alzheimer disease. the important sequence of each gene in alzheimer disease was fou...

The present paper presented a methodology for prioritizing the innovative and entrepreneurial indicators using Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) and Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), taking into account three individual, organizational and cultural dimensions simultaneously in decision making procedure. This methodology has two main advantages: first, the speed of operation in the accounti...
