nowadays, software cost estimation (sce) with machine learning techniques are more performance than other traditional techniques which were based on algorithmic techniques. in this paper, we present a new hybrid model of multi-layer perceptron (mlp) artificial neural network (ann) and ant colony optimization (aco) algorithm for high accuracy in sce called multilayer perceptron ant colony optimi...

the discharge or runoff which ousts from a watershed is important. because its deficiency leads to financial losses and its excesses cause damage in lives and property as flood. in this research using artificial neural network multi-layer perceptron (mlp (and adaptive neuro-fuzzy interface system (anfis) and multiple regression method simulated rainfall- runoff process on daily basis in the kho...

Introduction: Artificial neural networks are a type of systems that use very complex technologies and non-algorithmic solutions for problem solving. These characteristics make them suitable for various medical applications. This study set out to investigate the application of artificial neural networks for differential diagnosis of thalassemia minor and iron-deficiency anemia. Methods: It is...

This paper proposes a novel approach for an optimal multi-objective optimization for VLSI implementation of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) which is area-power-speed efficient and has high degree of accuracy and dynamic range. A VLSI implementation of feed forward neural network in floating point arithmetic IEEE-754 single precision 32 bit format is presented that makes the use of digital weigh...

in this paper, two methods have been used: multi-layer perceptron artificial neural network (ann-mlp) and universal kriging to estimate of velocity field. neural network is an information processing system which is formed by a large number of simple processing elements, known as artificial nerves. it is formed by a number of nodes and weights connecting the nodes. the input data are multiplied ...

in some statistical process control applications, the quality of the product is characterized by thecombination of both correlated variable and attributes quality characteristics. in this paper, we propose anovel control scheme based on the combination of two multi-layer perceptron neural networks forsimultaneous monitoring of mean vector as well as the covariance matrix in multivariate-attribu...
