every woman is at risk of ovarian cancer; about 90 percent of women who develop ovarian cancer are above 40 years of age, with the high number of ovarian cancers occurring at the age of 60 years and above. early and correct diagnosis of ovarian cancer can allow proper treatment and as a result reduce the mortality rate. in this paper, we proposed a hybrid of synthetic minority over-sampling tec...

the aim of this study was to estimate suspended sediment by the ann model, dt with cart algorithm and different types of src, in ten stations from the lorestan province of iran. the results showed that the accuracy of ann with levenberg-marquardt back propagation algorithm is more than the two other models, especially in high discharges. comparison of different intervals in models showed that r...

Artificial Neural Network (ANNs) techniques are recently indicating a lot of promises in the application of various micro-engineering fields. Such a use of ANNs for estimating the patch dimensions of a microstrip line feed rectangular microstrip patch antennas has been presented in this paper. An ANN model has been developed and tested for rectangular patch antenna design. The performance of th...

Radial Basis Function Neural Networks (RBF NNs) are one of the most applicable NNs in the classification of real targets. Despite the use of recursive methods and gradient descent for training RBF NNs, classification improper accuracy, failing to local minimum and low-convergence speed are defects of this type of network. In order to overcome these defects, heuristic and meta-heuristic algorith...

a sensitive and selective method using combination of two chemometrics methods, principal component analysis (pca) and artificial neural network (ann), and uv-visible spectroscopy has been developed for the determination of indomethacin (idm) in plasma samples . initially the absorbance spectra were processed using pca to noise reduction and data compression. the scores of these pcs were used a...

A novel particle swarm optimisation (PSO) tuned radial basis function (RBF) network model is proposed for identification of non-linear systems. At each stage of orthogonal forward regression (OFR) model construction process, PSO is adopted to tune one RBF unit’s centre vector and diagonal covariance matrix by minimising the leave-one-out (LOO) mean square error (MSE). This PSO aided OFR automat...

In this article an attempt is made to study the applicability of a general purpose, supervised feed forward neural network with one hidden layer, namely. Radial Basis Function (RBF) neural network. It uses relatively smaller number of locally tuned units and is adaptive in nature. RBFs are suitable for pattern recognition and classification. Performance of the RBF neural network was also compar...

in this study two intelligent systems, based on adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference systems (anfis) and artificial neural networks (anns) of forecasting municipal solid wastes (msw) generation has been proposed. anfis and anns as an intelligent tool compared with together was used to monthly prediction of msw generated in tehran. monthly amount of solid wastes (sw), total monthly precipitation, mont...

Time series analysis develops models that can establish the relationship between different variables. For nonlinear systems using time series analysis we propose to combine the 4 techniques of: i) Radial Basis Function (RBF), ii) artificial neural networks, iii) adaptive control and iv) optimization, and explore the design of robust control algorithms for uncertain nonlinear systems. Then, base...
