In this paper new back propagation algorithm which adds neurons to hidden layer is proposed. this proposed algorithm is applied to the pattern recognition of written number coupled with back propagation algorithm through omitting redundant learning. Learning rate and recognition rate of the proposed algorithm are compared with those of the conventional back propagation algorithm and the back propagation through omitting redundant learning. The learning rate of proposed algorithm is 4 times as fast as the conventional back propagation algorithm and 2 times as fast as the back propagation through omitting redundant learning. The recognition rate is 96.2% in case of the conventional back propagation algorithm, 96.5% in case of the back propagation through omitting redundant learning and 97.4% in the proposed algorithm.

This paper is to evaluate the applicability of neural networks to the estimation of evapotranspiration. Two neural networks were developed to forecast daily evapotranspiration of the rice crop with back-propagation and counter-propagation algorithm. The neural network trained by back-propagation algorithm with delta learning rule is a three-layer network with input, hidden, and output layers. The other network with counter-propagation algorithm is a four-layer network with input, normalizing, competitive, and output layers. Training neural networks was conducted using daily actual evapotranspiration of rice crop and daily climatic data such as mean temperature, sunshine hours, solar radiation, relative humidity, and pan evaporation. During the training, neural network parameters were calibrated. The trained networks were applied to a set of field data not used in the training. The created response of the back-propagation network was in good agreement with desired values and showed better performances than the counter-propagation network did. Evaluating the neural network performance indicates that the back-propagation neural network may be applied to the estimation of evapotranspiration of the rice crop. This study does not provide with a conclusive statement as to the ability of a neural network to evapotranspiration estimating. More detailed study is required for better understanding and evaluating the behavior of neural networks.

This paper proposes a method for detecting edge using an evolutionary programming and a momentum back-propagation algorithm. The evolutionary programming does not perform crossover operation as to consider reduction of capability of algorithm and calculation cost, but uses selection operator and mutation operator. The momentum back-propagation algorithm uses assistant to weight of learning step when weight is changed at learning step. Because learning rate o is settled as less in last back-propagation algorithm the momentum back-propagation algorithm discard the problem that learning is slow as relative reduction because change rate of weight at each learning step. The method using EP-MBP is batter than GA-BP method in both learning time and detection rate and showed the decreasing learning time and effective edge detection, in consequence.

The Back propagation algorithm is a very effective supervised training method for multi-layer feed forward neural networks. This paper studies the decision boundary formation based on the Back propagation algorithm. The discriminating powers of several neural network topology are also investigated against five manually created data sets. It is found that neural networks with multiple hidden layer perform better than single hidden layer.

This paper presents a method used to identify partial discharge defects in cast-resin power transformers using a back-propagation algorithm. The Rogowski-type partial discharge (PD) sensor was designed with a planar and thin structure based on a printed circuit board to detect PD signals. PD electrode systems, such as metal protrusions, particle-on-insulators, delamination, and void defects, were fabricated to simulate the PD defects that occur in service. PD characteristics, such as rising time, falling time, pulse width, skewness, and kurtosis without phase-resolved partial discharge patterns, were extracted to intuitively analyze each PD pulse according to the type of PD defect. A backpropagation algorithm was designed to identify PD defects using a virtual instrument (VI) based on the LabVIEW program. The results show that the accuracy rate of back-propagation (BP) algorithm reaches over 92.75% in identifying four types of PD defects.

We present a hybrid self-tuning method of fuzzy inference systems with hyper elliptic Gaussian membership functions using genetic algorithm(GA) and back-propagation algorithm. The proposed self-tuning method has two phases : one is the coarse tuning process based on GA and the other is the fine tuning process based on back-propagation. But the parameters which is obtained by a GA are near optimal solutions. In order to solve the problem in GA applications, it uses a back-propagation algorithm, which is one of learning algorithms in neural networks, to finely tune the parameters obtained by a GA. We provide Box-Jenkins time series to evaluate the advantage and effectiveness of the proposed approach and compare with the conventional method.

The cooling stage greatly affects the product quality in the injection molding process. The cooling system that minimizes temperature variance in the product surface will improve the quality and the productivity of products. In this research, we tried the back-propagation algorithm of artificial neural network to find an optimum solution in the cooling system design of injection mold. The cooling system optimization problem that was once solved by a response surface method with 4 design variables was solved by applying the back-propagation algorithm, resulting in a solution with a sufficient accuracy. Furthermore the number of training points was much reduced by applying the fractional factorial design without losing solution accuracy.

One of the major paradigms for supervised learning in neural network community is back-propagation learning. The standard implementations of back-propagation learning are optimal under the assumptions of identical and independent Gaussian noise. In this paper, for regression function estimation, we introduce $\varepsilon-insensitive$ back-propagation learning algorithm, which corresponds to minimizing the least absolute error. We compare this algorithm with support vector machine(SVM), which is another $\varepsilon-insensitive$ supervised learning algorithm and has been very successful in pattern recognition and function estimation problems. For comparison, we consider a more realistic model would allow the noise variance itself to depend on the input variables.

In this paper, a scheme for recognition of handwritten digits using a multilayer neural network trained with the back-propagation algorithm using generalized delta rule is proposed. The neural network is trained with hand written digit data of different writers and different styles. One of the purpose of the work with neural networks is the minimization of the mean square error(MSE) between actual output and desired one. The back-propagation algorithm is an efficient and very classical method. The back-propagation algorithm for training the weights in a multilayer net uses the steepest descent minimization procedure and the sigmoid threshold function. As an error rate is reduced, recognition rate is improved. Therefore we propose a method that is reduced an error rate.

Back-propagation(BP) algorithm needs a lot of time to train the artificial neural network (ANN) to get high accuracy level in classification tasks. So there have been extensive researches to process back-propagation algorithm on parallel processors. This paper prsents a linear systolic array which calculates forward-backward propagation of BP algorithm at the same time using effective space-time transformation and PE structure. First, we analyze data flow of forwared and backward propagations and then, represent the BP algorithm into data dapendency graph (DG) which shows parallelism inherent in the BP algorithm. Next, apply space-time transformation on the DG of ANN is turn with orthogonal direction projection. By doing so, we can get a snakelike systolic array. Also we calculate the interval of input for parallel processing, calculate the indices to make the right datas be used at the right PE when forward and bvackward propagations are processed in the same PE. And then verify the correctness of output when forward and backward propagations are executed at the same time. By doing so, the proposed system maximizes parallelism of BP algorithm, minimizes th enumber of PEs. And it reduces the execution time by 2 times through making idle PEs participate in forward-backward propagation at the same time.
