The two well known learning algorithms of recurrent neural networks are the back-propagation (Rumelhart & el al., Werbos) and the forward propagation (Williams and Zipser). The main drawback of back-propagation is its off-line backward path in time for error cumulation. This violates the on-line requirement in many practical applications. Although the forward propagation algorithm can be used i...

Breast cancer diagnosis has been approached by various machine learning techniques for many years. This paper presents a study on classification of Breast cancer using Feed Forward Artificial Neural Networks. Back propagation algorithm is used to train this network. The performance of the network is evaluated using Wisconsin breast cancer data set for various training algorithms. The highest ac...

We use simulated soccer to study multi-agent learning. Each team member tries to learn from the corresponding human player in a real game. Following a uniied approach, strategic and tactical behavior is learned synergistically by training a feed-forward neural network (ANN) with a mod-iied back-propagation algorithm. It aims at decreasing the learning time and avoiding the local maximums. We tr...

Early detection of cancer is the most promising way to enhance a patient's chance for survival. This paper presents a computer aided classification method in computed tomography (CT) images of lungs developed using artificial neural network. The entire lung is segmented from the CT images and the parameters are calculated from the segmented image. The statistical parameters like mean, standard ...

Card games are interesting for many reasons besides their connection with gambling. Bridge is being a game of imperfect information, it is a well defined, decision making game. The estimation of the number of tricks to be taken by one pair of bridge players is called Double Dummy Bridge Problem (DDBP). Artificial Neural Networks are Non – Linear mapping structures based on the function of the h...

This paper deals with artificial neural network (ANN) architecture, the multilayer Feed-forward (MLFF) network with back propagation learning. The training of an artificial neural network involves two passes. In the forward pass, the input signals propagate from the network input to the output. In the reverse pass the calculated error signals propagate backwards through the network where they a...

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance analysis of multilayer feed forward neural networks trained with back propagation algorithm & descent gradient Radial basis function network for the pattern classification of hand written curve script. This analysis has been done for handwritten text of three letters and for the individual English vowels. This analysis in the performance ...

the use of neural networks methodology is not as common in the investigation and pre-diction noise as statistical analysis. the application of artificial neural networks for pre-diction of power tiller noise is set out in the present paper. the sound pressure signals for noise analysis were obtained in a field experiment using a 13-hp power tiller. during measurement and recording of the sound ...
