Various artificial neural networks types are examined and compared for the prediction of surface roughness in manufacturing technology. The aim of the study is to evaluate different kinds of neural networks and observe their performance and applicability on the same problem. More specifically, feed-forward artificial neural networks are trained with three different back propagation algorithms, ...

Training neural networks to capture an intrinsic property of a large volume of high dimensional data is a difficult task, as the training process is computationally expensive. Input attributes should be carefully selected to keep the dimensionality of input vectors relatively small. Technical indexes commonly used for stock market prediction using neural networks are investigated to determine i...

In this paper, vapor pressure for pure compounds is estimated using the Artificial Neural Networks and a simple Group Contribution Method (ANN–GCM). For model comprehensiveness, materials were chosen from various families. Most of materials are from 12 families. Vapor pressure data of 100 compounds is used to train, validate and test the ANN-GCM model. Va...

Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm and conjugate gradient method are frequently used for optimization in multi-layer perceptron (MLP). However, both algorithms have mixed conclusions optimizing MLP time series forecasting. This study uses autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) with method. These methods were to predict the Air Pollutant Index (API) Malaysia's central region where represent...

the veterinary drugs residues are also important pollutants found in milk, since veterinary drugs are commonly used in cattle management. considering the role of milk in human nutrition and its wide consumption throughout the world, it is very important to ensure the milk quality. a quantitative structure–retention relationship (qsrr) was developed using the partial least square (pls), kernel p...

In this work, a recursive Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) learning algorithm in the complex domain is developed and applied to the learning of an adaptive control scheme composed by ComplexValued Recurrent Neural Networks (CVRNN). We simplified the derivation of the LM learning algorithm using a diagrammatic method to derive the adjoint CVRNN used to obtain the gradient terms. Furthermore, we apply th...

We present regularization tools for training small, medium and large feed-forward artiicial neural networks. The determination of the weights leads to very ill-conditioned nonlinear least squares problems and regularization is often suggested to get control over the network complexity, small variance error, and to get a nice optimization problem. The algorithms proposed explicitly use a sequenc...

The paper presents an artificial neural network based approach in support of cash demand forecasting for automatic teller machine (ATM). On the start phase a three layer feed-forward neural network was trained using Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm and historical data sets. Then ANN was retuned every week using the last observations from ATM. The generalization properties of the ANN were improved ...
