runoff estimation is one of the main challenges encountered in water and watershed management. spatial and temporal changes of factors which influence runoff due to het-erogeneity of the basins explain the complicacy of relations. artificial neural network (ann) is one of the intelligence techniques which is flexible and doesn’t call for any much physically complex processes. these networks can...

abstract: this paper represents a novel use of artificial neural networks in medical science. the proposed technique involves training a multi layer perceptron (mlp) (a kind of artificial neural network) with a bp learning algorithm to recognize a pattern for the diagnosing and prediction of five blood disorders, through the results of blood tests from h1 machine. the blood test parameters and ...

because of high cost of drilling and analysis of samples, it needs to predict gold and silvers based on pathfinder such as as, sb, cd, pb and zn and decrease the cost and time exploration project implementation. in this paper, the model based on a multilayer perceptron artificial neural network (mlp-ann) optimized by invasive weed optimization algorithm (iwo) to predict of gold and silver in za...

This paper describes the development of an Intellectual Property (IP) core in VHDL able to implement a Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) artificial neural network (ANN) topology with up to 2 hidden layers, 128 neurons, and 31 inputs per neuron. Neural network models are usually developed by using programming languages, such as Matlab®. However, their implementation in configurable logic hardware requ...

Artificial Neural Networks(ANN) has been phenomenally successful on various pattern recognition tasks. However, the design of neural networks rely heavily on the experience and intuitions of individual developers. In this article, the author introduces a mathematical structure called MLP algebra on the set of all Multilayer Perceptron Neural Networks(MLP), which can serve as a guiding principle...

Supervised Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) are information processing systems that adapt their functionality as a result of exposure to input-output examples. To this end, there exist generic procedures and techniques, known as learning rules. The most widely used in the neural network context rely in derivative information, and are typically associated with the Multilayer Perceptron (MLP). Ot...

Artificial neural network was considered in previous studies for prediction of engine performance and emissions. ICA methodology was inspired in order to optimize the weights of multilayer perceptron (MLP) of artificial neural network so that closer estimation of output results can be achieved. Current paper aimed at prediction of engine power, soot, NOx, CO2, O2, and temperature with the ai...
