purpose of this paper is to assess the value of neural networks for classification of cancer and noncancer prostate cells. Gauss Markov Random Fields, Fourier entropy and wavelet average deviation features are calculated from 80 noncancer and 80 cancer prostate cell nuclei. For classification, artificial neural network techniques which are multilayer perceptron, radial basis function and learni...

An integrated Neural Network and Gravitational Search Algorithm (HNNGSA) are used to solve Blasius differential equation. To aim this purpose, GSA technique is applied to train a multi-layer perceptron neural network, which is used as approximation solution of the Blasius differential equation. A trial solution of the differential equation is written as sum of two parts. The first part satisfie...

In this paper, the application of neural networks to study the design of short-term load forecasting (STLF) Systems for Illam state located in west of Iran was explored. One important architecture of neural networks named Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) to model STLF systems was used. Our study based on MLP was trained and tested using three years (2004-2006) data. The results show that MLP networ...

this paper presents the prediction of vehicle's velocity time series using neural networks. for this purpose, driving data is firstly collected in real world traffic conditions in the city of tehran using advance vehicle location devices installed on private cars. a multi-layer perceptron network is then designed for driving time series forecasting. in addition, the results of this study a...

Due to lack of theory of elasticity, estimation of ultimate torsional strength of reinforcement concrete beams is a difficult task. Therefore, the finite element methods could be applied for determination of strength of concrete beams. Furthermore, for complicated, highly nonlinear and ambiguous status, artificial neural networks are appropriate tools for prediction of behavior of such states. ...
