A Diagrammatic Approach to Gradient Derivations for Neural Networks

نویسنده

  • Eric A. Wan
چکیده

Deriving gradient algorithms for time-dependent neural network structures typically requires numerous chain rule expansions, diligent bookkeeping, and careful manipulation of terms. We show, however, that an eecient gradient descent algorithm may be formulated for any network structure with virtually no eeort using a set of simple block diagram manipulation rules. Examples are provided that illustrate the simplicity of the approach for a variety of structures, including feedforward and feedback systems.

A conjugate gradient based method for Decision Neural Network training

Decision Neural Network is a new approach for solving multi-objective decision-making problems based on artificial neural networks. Using inaccurate evaluation data, network training has improved and the number of educational data sets has decreased. The available training method is based on the gradient decent method (BP). One of its limitations is related to its convergence speed. Therefore,...
