A Feedforward Neural Network based on Multi-Valued Neurons
نویسندگان
چکیده
A feedforward neural network based on multi-valued neurons is considered in the paper. It is shown that using a traditional feedforward architecture and a high functionality multi-valued neuron, it is possible to obtain a new powerful neural network. Its learning does not require a derivative of the activation function and its functionality is higher than the functionality of traditional feedforward networks containing the same number of layers and neurons. These advantages of MLMVN are confirmed by testing using Parity n, two spirals and "sonar" benchmarks, and the Mackey-Glass time-series prediction.

It is shown in this paper that a model of multiplevalued logic over the field of complex numbers is the most appropriate for the representation of the genetic code as a multiple-valued function. The genetic code is considered as a partially defined multiple-valued function of three variables. The genetic code is the four-letter nucleic acid code, and it is translated into a 20-letter amino acid...
