In this paper, Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) learning algorithm for a single Integrate-and-Fire Neuron (IFN) is proposed and tested for various applications in which a neural network based on multilayer perceptron is conventionally used. It is found that a single IFN is sufficient for the applications that require a number of neurons in different hidden layers of a conventional neural network. Sever...

In this paper back-propagation artificial neural network (BPANN) with Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm is employed to predict the limiting drawing ratio (LDR) of the deep drawing process. To prepare a training set for BPANN, some finite element simulations were carried out. die and punch radius, die arc radius, friction coefficient, thickness, yield strength of sheet and strain hardening exponent ...

An investigation of the neural network convergence and prediction based on three optimization algorithms, namely, Levenberg-Marquardt, conjugate gradient, and delta rule, is described. Several simulated neural networks built using the above three algorithms indicated that the Levenberg-Marquardt optimizer implemented as a back-propagation neural network converged faster than the other two algor...

Efficient second order algorithm for training feedforward neural networks is presented. The algorithm has a similar convergence rate as the Lavenberg-Marquardt (LM) method and it is less computationally intensive and requires less memory. This is especially important for large neural networks where the LM algorithm becomes impractical. Algorithm was verified with several examples.

An approach to develop response surface approximations based upon artificial neural networks trained using both state and sensitivity information is described in this paper. Compared to previous approaches, this approach does not require weighting the residuals of the targets and gradients and is able to approximate gradient-consistent response surfaces with a relatively compact network archite...

Unconventional machining process finds lot of application in aerospace and precision industries. It is preferred over other conventional methods because of the advent of composite and high strength to weight ratio materials, complex parts and also because of its high accuracy and precision. Usually in unconventional machine tools, trial and error method is used to fix the values of process para...

This paper proposes system identification on application of nonlinear AR (NAR) based on Artificial Neural Network (ANN) for monitor of dengue infections. In building the model, three selection criteria, i.e. the final prediction error (FPE), Akaike’s Information Criteria (AIC), and Lipschitz number were used. Each of the models is divided into two approaches, which are unregularized approach an...

Prediction of the gas holdup and pressure drop in a horizontal pipe for gas-non-Newtonian liquid flow using Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) methodology have been reported in this paper from the data acquired from our earlier experiment. The ANN prediction is done using Multilayer Perceptrons (MLP) trained with three different algorithms, namely: Backpropagation (BP), Scaled Conjugate gradient ...
