In this paper, a new architecture of fuzzy neural network (FNN) model is proposed in order to find a fuzzy solution of a fully fuzzy polynomial (FFP) with degree one. The proposed FNN is a two layer feed-forward neural network, that corresponds connection weight to output layer. The proposed architecture of artificial neural network can get a fuzzy input signal and calculates its corresponding ...

This paper, presents a theoretical and practical basis of preprocessing on handwritten text for character recognition using forward-feed neural networks. Afterwards, the Feed forward algorithm gives working of a neural network followed by the Back Propagation Algorithm which compromises Training, Calculating Error, and Modifying Weights. The proposed solutions focus on applying Back Propagation...

The Knowledge Acquisition (KA) process consists on extracting and representing knowledge of a domain expert. In this work, one of the goals is to minimize the intrinsic difficulties of the KA process. We have obtained all possible rules from the domain expert in a short time and also a set of examples. Other goal, we are proposed a Hybrid Expert System (HES) to minimize the problems of the KA t...

This paper presents a feed forward back-propagation neural network model to predict the retained tensile strength and design chart in order to estimation of the strength reduction factors of nonwoven geotextiles due to installation process. A database of 34 full-scale field tests were utilized to train, validate and test the developed neural network and regression model. The results show that t...

Early residential fire detection is important for prompt extinguishing and reducing damages and life losses. To detect fire, one or a combination of sensors and a detection algorithm are needed. The sensors might be part of a wireless sensor network (WSN) or work independently. The previous research in the area of fire detection using WSN has paid little or no attention to investigate the optim...

Various artificial neural networks types are examined and compared for the prediction of surface roughness in manufacturing technology. The aim of the study is to evaluate different kinds of neural networks and observe their performance and applicability on the same problem. More specifically, feed-forward artificial neural networks are trained with three different back propagation algorithms, ...
