چکیده

Hill climbing algorithms can train neural control systems for adaptive agents. They are an alternative to gradient descent algorithms especially if neural networks with non-layered topology or non-differentiable activation function are used, or if the task is not suitable for backpropagation training. This paper describes three variants of generic hill climbing algorithms which together can train nearly any type of neural network. Variations of the algorithms are analysed and tested on the 5-bit parity data .and practical design rules are inferred. A hill climbing algorithm which uses inline search is proposed. Experimental results show that it can accelerate learning. It can be recommended for' population based training.

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,...
