We have proposed the glial network which was inspired from the feature of brain. In the glial network, glias generate independent oscillations and these oscillations propagated neurons and other glias. We confirmed that the glial network improved the learning performance of the Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) In this article, we investigate the MLP with the impulse glial network. The glias have on...

To estimate the Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC), indirect manner used of Pedotransfer Functions (PTFs). CEC is one of the important soil fertility factors, and not measured directly because it is costly and time consuming. Thus, used from regression equations between easily and non-easily soil properties. The purpose of this research, is develop the PTFs for CEC, with use of easily available soi...

The use of computational intelligence techniques for classification has been used in numerous applications. This paper compares the use of a Multi Layer Perceptron Neural Network and a new Relational Network on classifying the HIV status of women at ante-natal clinics. The paper discusses the architecture of the relational network and its merits compared to a neural network and most other compu...

In this paper a new two-layer linear-in-the-parameters feedforward network termed the Functionally Expanded Neural Network (FENN) is presented, together with its design strategy and learning algorithm. It is essentially a hybrid neural network incorporating a variety of non-linear basis functions within its single hidden layer which emulate other universal approximators employed in the conventi...

We discuss the development of a Multi-Layer Perceptron neural network classiier for use in preoperative diierentiation between benign and malignant ovarian tumors. As the Mean Squared clas-siication Error is not suucient to make correct and objective assessments about the performance of the neural classiier, the concepts of sensitivity and speciicity are introduced and combined in Receiver Oper...

Decision Neural Network is a new approach for solving multi-objective decision-making problems based on artificial neural networks. Using inaccurate evaluation data, network training has improved and the number of educational data sets has decreased. The available training method is based on the gradient decent method (BP). One of its limitations is related to its convergence speed. Therefore,...

estimating of forest equipment productivity is an important aspect of managing cost in forestry, which leads to reduction of operations expenses. in other words, high capital cost in forest harvesting, is a good reason to argue forest engineering research and time modeling. this paper applied one of the artificial intelligence subsets, which are called artificial neural networks (anns), to pred...

The research presented in this paper is based on the artificial neural networks recognition paradigm applied to Romanian isolated word recognition. The network, which is composed by three layer (a Multilayer Perceptron), is trained by conventional Back-propagation algorithm. The ANN speech recognition system based on Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients was developed using Matlab toolkit. The sy...

In this paper we evaluate the classiication accuracy of four statistical and three neural network classiiers for two image based pattern classiication problems. These are ngerprint classiication and optical character recognition (OCR) for isolated handprinted digits. The evaluation results reported here should be useful for designers of practical systems for these two important commercial appli...
