چکیده

Feed-forward Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) have become popular among researchers and practitioners for modelling complex real–world problems. One of the latest research areas in this field is evolving ANNs. In this paper, we investigate the simultaneous evolution of architectures and connection weights in ANNs. In simultaneous evolution, we use the concept of multiobjective optimization and subsequently evolutionary multiobjective algorithms to evolve ANNs. The results are promising when compared with the traditional Backpropagation algorithm.

A Review of Evolutionary Arti cial NeuralNetworks 12 Xin

Research on potential interactions between connectionist learning systems, i.e., articial neural networks (ANNs), and evolutionary search procedures, like genetic algorithms (GAs), has attracted a lot of attention recently. Evolutionary ANNs (EANNs) can be considered as the combination of ANNs and evolutionary search procedures. This paper rst distinguishes among three kinds of evolution in EAN...

Towards Designing Arti cial Neural Networks by Evolution

Designing artiicial neural networks (ANNs) for different applications has been a key issue in the ANN eld. Although there are many training algorithms available for learning ANN's connection weights, algorithms which can learn ANN's architectures are relatively few. At present, ANN design still relies heavily on human experts who have suucient knowledge about ANNs and the problem to be solved. ...

Evolutionary Artiicial Neural Networks 1

Evolutionary Arti cial Neural Networks (EANNs) can be considered as a combination of arti cial neural networks (ANNs) and evolutionary search procedures, such as genetic algorithms (GAs). This paper distinguishes among three levels of evolution in EANNs, i.e., the evolution of connection weights, architectures, and learning rules. It rst reviews each kind of evolution in detail and then analyse...
