In this paper, two feed forward neural network models have been presented to predict the Silicon Modification Level (SiML) of W319 aluminum alloys using the Thermal Analysis (T.A) parameters as inputs. The developed neural networks are a Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) network and a Radial Basis Function (RBF) network. The neural network models were found to predict the SiML accurately (R=0.99). Th...

Neural network is being used in many real life applications like prediction, classification etc. In this paper we present an FPGA hardware efficient implementation of neural network where we have implemented a multilayer feed forward network. We have used CORDIC algorithms of HP-35 scientific calculator for this purpose. The CORDIC algorithm is an approximation technique to compute trigonometri...

Carbon fiber fabrics are important engineering materials. However, it is confusing to classify different carbon fiber fabrics, leading to risks in engineering processes. Here, a classification method for four types of carbon fiber fabrics is proposed using artificial neural networks (ANNs) and support vector machine (SVM) based on 229 experimental data groups. Sample width, breaking strength an...

Epilepsy is one of the major fields of application of EEG. Now a days, identification of epilepsy is accomplished manually by skilled neurologist. Those are very small in number. In this work, we propose a methodology for automatic detection of normal, interictal and ictal conditions from recorded of EEG signals. We used the wavelet transform for the feature extraction and obtained statistical ...

The aim of this paper is to implement a Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) Neural Network to recognize and predict handwritten digits from 0 to 9. A dataset of 5000 samples were obtained from MNIST. The dataset was trained using gradient descent back-propagation algorithm and further tested using the feed-forward algorithm. The system performance is observed by varying the number of hidden units and t...

This work analyzes the advantages of Artificial Neural Networks applied in development of a technique for estimation rotor angle and speed, transient stability assessment and control in real-time in Synchronous Generator. Two multi layered feed-forward Artificial Neural Networks are used for this technique. One is used for the estimation of rotor angle and another for the estimation of rotor sp...

An off-line handwritten alphabetical character recognition system using multilayer feed forward neural network is described in the paper. A new method, called, diagonal based feature extraction is introduced for extracting the features of the handwritten alphabets. Fifty data sets, each containing 26 alphabets written by various people, are used for training the neural network and 570 different...

In this article an attempt is made to study the applicability of a general purpose, supervised feed forward neural network with one hidden layer, namely. Radial Basis Function (RBF) neural network. It uses relatively smaller number of locally tuned units and is adaptive in nature. RBFs are suitable for pattern recognition and classification. Performance of the RBF neural network was also compar...
