This paper presents the application of three di1erent types of neural networks to the 2-D pattern recognition on the basis of its shape. They include the multilayer perceptron (MLP), Kohonen self-organizing network and hybrid structure composed of the self-organizing layer and the MLP subnetwork connected in cascade. The recognition is based on the features extracted from the Fourier and wavele...

In this paper, MLP network with sliding-mode controller and neural control is designed to the joint position control of two-link robot manipulators for periodic motion and predefined trajectory tracking control. Because the nonlinear nature robot, first the nonlinear and robust method sliding mode as a control theory for the system is chosen. Chattering phenomenon is always a problem of sliding...

In this work, generalization ability of a hybrid neural network algorithm is investigated. This algorithm consists of a combination of Radial Basis Function (RBF) and Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) in one single network using conic section functions. The network architecture using this algorithm is called Conic Section Function Neural Network (CSFNN). Various problems are examined to demonstrate t...

This work presents a method to increased the face recognition accuracy using a combination of Wavelet, PCA, and Neural Networks. Preprocessing, feature extraction and classification rules are three crucial issues for face recognition. This paper presents a hybrid approach to employ these issues. For preprocessing and feature extraction steps, we apply a combination of wavelet transform and PCA....

runoff estimation is one of the main challenges encountered in water and watershed management. spatial and temporal changes of factors which influence runoff due to het-erogeneity of the basins explain the complicacy of relations. artificial neural network (ann) is one of the intelligence techniques which is flexible and doesn’t call for any much physically complex processes. these networks can...

A fault diagnosis system in a multilevel-inverter using a compact neural network is proposed in this paper. It is difficult to diagnose a multilevel-inverter drive (MLID) system using a mathematical model because MLID systems consist of many switching devices and their system complexity has a nonlinear factor. Therefore, a neural network classification is applied to the fault diagnosis of a MLI...

The aim of our study is to propose an approach for transfer function placental development using ultrasound images.
