Neural networks (NN) are a relatively new option to model growth in animal production systems. One self-organizing submodel of artificial NN is the group method of data handling (GMDH)-type NN. The use of such self-organizing networks has led to successful application of the GMDH algorithm over a broad range of areas in engineering, science, and economics. The present study aimed to apply the G...

This paper presents the application of six nonlinear ensemble architectures to forecasting the foreign exchange rates in the computational intelligence paradigm. Intelligent techniques such as Backpropagation neural network (BPNN), Wavelet neural network (WNN), Multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS), Support vector regression (SVR), Dynamic evolving neuro-fuzzy inference system (DENFIS...

Energy plays a significant role in today's developing societies. The role of energy demands to make decisions and policy with regard to its production, distribution, and supply. The vital importance of energy, especially fossil fuels, is a factor affecting agricultural production. This factor has a great influence on the production of agricultural products in Iran. The forecast of the con...

The GMDH MIA algorithm uses linear regression for adaptation. We show that Gauss-Markov conditions are not met here and thus estimations of network parameters are biased. To eliminate this we propose to use cloning of neuron parameters in the GMDH network with genetic selection and cloning (GMC GMDH) that can outperform other powerful methods. It is demonstrated on tasks from the Machine Learni...

Agile Software development has become famous in industries and replacing the traditional methods of software development. A correct estimation of effort in this concept still remains an argument in industries. Thus, the industry must be able to estimate the effort necessary for software development using agile methodology. For estimating effort different types of neural-networks Probabilistic N...

An Artificial Neural Network is a flexible mathematical structure which is capable of identifying complex nonlinear relationships between input and output data sets. Such Neural Networks have been characterized by passive neurons that are not able to select and estimate their own inputs. In a new approach, which corresponds in a better way to the actions of human nervous system, the connections...

In this study, an intelligent control scheme is developed for induction motors (IMs). The dynamics of IMs are unknown and perturbed by the variation rotor resistance load changes. system has two stages. identification stage, group method data-handling (GMDH) neural network (NN) was designed online modeling IM. GMDH-NN applied to compensate impacts disturbances uncertainties. stability shown Lya...
