Effect of boundaries on the response of a neural network.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The effect an abrupt boundary has upon the dynamical response of a neural network is investigated. The retina of the Limulus eye is used as a model system for studying this effect. A theoretical technique is presented for the quantitative prediction of the manner in which this neural network responds in the vicinity of its boundary. Corresponding experimental measurements of the response to moving stimuli by single optic neurons located near retinal boundaries are presented. Theory and experiment show detailed quantitative agreement.

متن کاملA Comparison of Regression and Neural Network Based for Multiple Response Optimization in a Real Case Study of Gasoline Production Process
Most of existing researches for multi response optimization are based on regression analysis. However, the artificial neural network can be applied for the problem. In this paper, two approaches are proposed by consideration of both methods. In the first approach, regression model of the controllable factors and S/N ratio of each response has been achieved, then a fuzzy programming has been app...

Extended Abstract Introduction: A large number of experimental evidence indicates the positive effect of irradiating the seed with ultrasonic waves; so that irradiation causes the production of a more vigorous seedling. Conversely, inappropriate intensity and duration of irradiation can impose deleterious effects on seedlings by damaging the enzymatic activity. There are complex inter-and in...
