چکیده

In this work, two modifications on Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm for feedforward neural networks are studied. One modification is made on performance index, while the other one is on calculating gradient information. The modified algorithm gives a better convergence rate compared to the standard Levenberg-Marquard (LM) method and is less computationally intensive and requires less memory. The performance of the algorithm has been checked on several example problems.

A Differential Evolution and Spatial Distribution based Local Search for Training Fuzzy Wavelet Neural Network

Abstract   Many parameter-tuning algorithms have been proposed for training Fuzzy Wavelet Neural Networks (FWNNs). Absence of appropriate structure, convergence to local optima and low speed in learning algorithms are deficiencies of FWNNs in previous studies. In this paper, a Memetic Algorithm (MA) is introduced to train FWNN for addressing aforementioned learning lacks. Differential Evolution...
