it has been demonstrated that anxiety is accompanied by significant warm up in the periorbital area. this warm up was attributed to the increased blood circulation in the area around the eyes. the whole pattern makes physiological and evolutionary sense since it represents a mechanism to facilitate rapid eye movements during preparedness for fight. this increased blood flow dissipates convectiv...

This paper proposes a new method for prediction of chaotic time series based on Parallel Multi-Layer Perceptron (PMLP) net and dynamics reconstruction technique. The PMLP contains a number of multi-layer perceptron (MLP) subnets connected in parallel. Each MLP subnet predicts the future data independently with a different embedding dimension. The PMLP determines the final predicted result accor...

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...

There are a lot of extensions made to the classic model of multi-layer perceptron (MLP). A notable amount of them has been designed to hasten the learning process without considering the quality of generalization. The paper proposes a new MLP extension based on exploiting topology of the input layer of the network. Experimental results show the extended model to improve upon generalization capa...

Short-term cepstral features have long been chosen as standard features for speaker recognition thanks to their relevance and effectiveness. In contrast, discriminative features, calculated by a multi-layer perceptron (MLP) from much longer stretches of time, have been gradually adopted in automatic speech recognition (ASR). It has been shown that augmenting short-term cepstral features with lo...

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...

Multi layer perceptron with back propagation algorithm is popular and more used than other neural network types in various fields of investigation as a non-linear predictor. Though MLP can solve complex and non-linear problems, it cannot use missing data for training directly. We propose a training algorithm with incomplete pattern data using conventional MLP network. Focusing on the fact that ...

In this paper, we propose a way to apply Multi Layer Perceptron (MLP) to Functional Data Analysis. We introduce a computation model for functional input data and we show that this model is a well behaving extension of MLP: we show that the proposed model has the universal approximation property. Moreover, parameter estimation for this model is consistent. As a conclusion, we demonstrate functio...

The work presents the results of an investigation conducted to compare the performances of the Multi Layer Perceptron (MLP) and the Nearest Neighbor (NN) classifier for handwritten numeral recognition problem. The comparison is drawn in terms of the recognition performance and the computational requirements of the individual classifiers. The results show that a two-layer perceptron performs com...

In this paper, we propose a system for recognition handwritten characters Tifinagh, with the use of neural networks (the multi layer perceptron MLP), the hidden Markov model (HMM), the hybrid Model MLP/HMM and a feature extraction method based on mathematical morphology, this method is tested on the database of handwritten isolated characters Tifinagh size consistent (1800 images in learning an...
