In this paper, the processing of sonar signals has been carried out using Minimal Resource Allocation Network (MRAN) and a Probabilistic Neural Network (PNN) in differentiation of commonly encountered features in indoor environments. The stability-plasticity behaviors of both networks have been investigated. The experimental result shows that MRAN possesses lower network complexity but experien...

In this note we present and discuss results of experiments comparing the performance of six neural network architectures (back propagation, recurrent network with dampened feedback, network with multiple hidden layers each with a different activation function, jump connection networks, probabilistic neural networks and general regression neural networks) applied to a simplified multi-font recog...

In this paper, a text-independent Probabilistic Neural Network (PNN)-based Speaker Verification system is presented. Modular structure with a distinct PNN for each enrolled speaker is used. A gender-dependent universal background model is built to represent the impostor speakers. A detailed description of the system, as well as the time required for training and processing all the test trials i...

drought is random and nonlinear phenomenon and using linear stochastic models, nonlinear artificial neural network and hybrid models is advantaged for drought forecasting. this paper presents the performances of autoregressive integrated moving average (arima), direct multi-step neural network (dmsnn), recursive multi-step neural network (rmsnn), hybrid stochastic neural network of directive ap...

A systematic method for the diagnosis of planar antenna arrays from far field radiation pattern using neural networks is presented. Two types of neural networks, Radial basis function (RBF) and Probabilistic neural network (PNN) are considered for the performance comparison. Deviation pattern is used as input to the neural network to determine the location of the faulty element and error in exc...

Understanding the relationship between connectionist and probabilistic models is important for evaluating the compatibility of these approaches. We use mathematical analyses and computer simulations to show that a linear neural network can approximate the generalization performance of a probabilistic model of property induction, and that training this network by gradient descent with early stop...
