Using Multiple Node Types to Improve the Performance of DMP ( Dynamic Multilayer Perceptron )

چکیده
This paper discusses a method for training multi-layer perceptron networks called DMP2 (Dynamic Multi-layer Perceptron 2). The method is based upon a divide and conquer approach which builds networks in the form of binary trees, dynamically allocating nodes and layers as needed. The focus of this paper is on the effects of using multiple node types within the DMP framework. Simulation results show that DMP2 performs favorably in comparison with other learning algorithms, and that using multiple node types can be beneficial to network performance.

متن کاملA Neuro-Fuzzy Model for a Dynamic Prediction of Milk Ultrafiltration Flux and Resistance
A neuro-fuzzy modeling tool (ANFIS) has been used to dynamically model cross flow ultrafiltration of milk. It aims to predict permeate flux and total hydraulic resistance as a function of transmembrane pressure, pH, temperature, fat, molecular weight cut off, and processing time. Dynamic modeling of ultrafiltration performance of colloidal systems (such as milk) is very important for design...
متن کاملPerformance Improvement of Multilayer Perceptrons with Increased Output Nodes per Class
Generally, we allocate one output node per class in pattern recognition applications of MLPs(multilayer perceptrons). In this paper, we propose a method to improve generalization capability of MLPs through increasing the number of output nodes per class. We verify that the proposed method decreases misclassification ratios of MLPs through a short mathematical aspect. And then, simulations of is...
