Hydrological data are often missing due to natural disasters, improper operation, limited equipment life, and other factors, which limit hydrological analysis. Therefore, missing data recovery is an essential process in hydrology. This paper investigates the accuracy of artificial neural networks (ANN) in estimating missing flow records. The purpose is to develop and apply neural networks model...

no unique method has been so far specified for determining the number of neurons in hidden layers of multi-layer perceptron (mlp) neural networks used for prediction. the present research is intended to optimize the number of neurons using two meta-heuristic procedures namely genetic and hill climbing algorithms. the data used in the present research for prediction are consumption data of water...

Neural networks with internal temporal dynamic can be applied to non-linear DSP problems. The classical fully connected recurrent architectures, can be replaced by less complex neural networks, based on the well known MultiLayer Perceptron (MLP) where the temporal dynamic is modelled by replacing each synapses either with a FIR filter or with an IIR filter. A general learning algorithm (Back-Pr...

This article provides an overview of the construction MLP neural network for estimation a person's psychological state. The problem critical sessment and direct help is quite important nowadays, as most people are faced with problems, both personal national or global, such political instability pandemic. Most existing systems assessing human condition aimed at helping solve problems related to ...

The majority of today's Neural Networks are either Multi-Layer-Perceptron networks (MLP) or Feature-Maps like Kohonen's Self-Organizing Map (SOM). Usually they are simulated on ordinary single-processor von-Neumann hardware to be used for some kind of vector quantization, classiication or coding. However, these simulated Neural Networks are expensive in respect to the computational costs they d...

This paper discusses the use of neural networks in an underground radio-localization system. In a highly aggressive environment such as mines, reliability and robustness are essential to any operational system. Using UWB as the physical wireless propagation medium and combined with fingerprinting-geolocation and neural networks, this work tends to overcome many of the problems encountered in in...

The artificial neural networks, the learning algorithms and mathematical models mimicking the information processing ability of human brain can be used non-linear and complex data. The aim of this study was to predict the breeding values for milk production trait in Iranian Holstein cows applying artificial neural networks. Data on 35167 Iranian Holstein cows recorded between 1998 to 2009 were ...
