In this paper, we propose an improved fuzzy RBF network which dynamically adjusts the rate of learning by applying the Delta-bar-Delta algorithm in order to improve the learning performance of fuzzy RBF networks. The proposed learning algorithm, which combines the fuzzy C-Means algorithm with the generalized delta learning method, improves its learning performance by dynamically adjusting the rate of learning. The adjustment of the learning rate is achieved by self-generating middle-layered nodes and by applying the Delta-bar-Delta algorithm to the generalized delta learning method for the learning of middle and output layers. To evaluate the learning performance of the proposed RBF network, we used 40 identifiers extracted from a container image as the training data. Our experimental results show that the proposed method consumes less training time and improves the convergence of teaming, compared to the conventional ART2-based RBF network and fuzzy RBF network.

We proposed an auto-tuning method of learning rate for performance improvement of backpropagation algorithm. Proposed method is used a fuzzy logic system for automatic tuning of learning rate. Instead of choosing a fixed learning rate, the fuzzy logic system is used to dynamically adjust learning rate. The inputs of fuzzy logic system are ${\Delta}$ and $\bar{{\Delta}}$, and the output is the learning rate. In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, we performed simulations on a N-parity problem, function approximation, and Arabic numerals classification. The results show that the proposed method has considerably improved the performance compared to the backpropagation, the backpropagation with momentum, and the Jacobs' delta-bar-delta.

We propose a learning method for improving the performance of the backpropagation algorithm. The proposed method is using a fuzzy logic system for automatic tuning of the learning rate of each weight. Instead of choosing a fixed learning rate, the fuzzy logic system is used to dynamically adjust the learning rate. The inputs of fuzzy logic system are delta and delta bar, and the output of fuzzy logic system is the learning rate. In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, we performed simulations on the XOR problem, character classification, and function approximation. The results show that the proposed method considerably improves the performance compared to the general backpropagation, the backpropagation with momentum, and the Jacobs'delta-bar-delta algorithm.

This paper presents an approach for the optimal heating load Identification using Diagonal Recurrent Neural Networks(DRNN). In this paper, the DRNN captures the dynamic nature of a system and since it is not fully connected, training is much faster than a fully connected recurrent neural network. The architecture of DRNN is a modified model of the fully connected recurrent neural network with one hidden layer. The hidden layer is comprised of self-recurrent neurons, each feeding its output only into itself. In this study, A dynamic backpropagation (DBP) with delta-bar-delta learning method is used to train an optimal heating load identifier. Delta-bar-delta learning method is an empirical method to adapt the learning rate gradually during the training period in order to improve accuracy in a short time. The simulation results based on experimental data show that the proposed model is superior to the other methods in most cases, in regard of not only learning speed but also identification accuracy.

This paper proposes the enhanced REF network, which arbitrates learning rate and momentum dynamically by using the fuzzy system, to arbitrate the connected weight effectively between the middle layer of REF network and the output layer of REF network. ART2 is applied to as the learning structure between the input layer and the middle layer and the proposed auto-turning method of arbitrating the learning rate as the method of arbitrating the connected weight between the middle layer and the output layer. The enhancement of proposed method in terms of learning speed and convergence is verified as a result of comparing it with the conventional delta-bar-delta algorithm and the REF network on the basis of the ART2 to evaluate the efficiency of learning of the proposed method.

we propose an enhanced self-generation supervised algorithm that by combining an ART algorithm and the delta-bar-delta method. Form the input layer to the hidden layer, ART-1 and ART-2 are used to produce nodes, respectively. A winner-take-all method is adopted to the connection weight adaption so that a stored pattern for some pattern is updated. we test the recognition of student identification, a certificate of residence, and an identifier from container that require nodes of hidden layers in neural network. In simulation results, the proposed self-generation supervised learning algorithm reduces the possibility of local minima and improves learning speed and paralysis than conventional neural networks.

We propose an enhanced backpropagation algorithm by auto-tuning of learning rate using fuzzy control system for performance improvement of backpropagation algorithm. We propose two methods, which improve local minima and loaming times problem. First, if absolute value of difference between target and actual output value is smaller than $\varepsilon$ or the same, we define it as correctness. And if bigger than $\varepsilon$, we define it as incorrectness. Second, instead of choosing a fixed learning rate, the proposed method is used to dynamically adjust learning rate using fuzzy control system. The inputs of fuzzy control system are number of correctness and incorrectness, and the output is the Loaming rate. For the evaluation of performance of the proposed method, we applied the XOR problem and numeral patterns classification The experimentation results showed that the proposed method has improved the performance compared to the conventional backpropagatiot the backpropagation with momentum, and the Jacob's delta-bar-delta method.

Heart Failure represents a critical pathological case that is challenging to predict and discover at an early age, with a notable increase in morbidity and mortality. Machine Learning and Neural Network techniques play a crucial role in predicting heart attacks, diseases and more. These techniques give valuable perspectives for clinicians who may then adjust their diagnosis for each individual patient. This paper evaluated neural network models for heart attacks predictions. Several online learning methods were investigated to automatically and accurately predict heart attacks. The UCI dataset was used in this work to train and evaluate First Order and Second Order Online Learning methods; namely Backpropagation, Delta bar Delta, Levenberg Marquardt and QuickProp learning methods. An optimizer technique was also used to minimize the random noise in the database. A regularization concept was employed to further improve the generalization of the model. Results show that a three layers' NN model with a Backpropagation algorithm and Nadam optimizer achieved a promising accuracy for the heart attach prediction tasks.

In this raper, an enhanced learning method is proposed for improving the learning speed of the error back propagation learning algorithm. In order to cope with the premature saturation phenomenon at the initial learning stage, a variation scheme of active functions is introduced by using higher order functions, which does not need much increase of computation load. It naturally changes the learning rate of inter-connection weights to a large value as the derivative of sigmoid function abnormally decrease to a small value during the learning epoch. Also, we suggest the hybrid learning method incorporated the proposed method with the momentum training algorithm. Computer simulation results show that the proposed learning algorithm outperforms the conventional methods such as momentum and delta-bar-delta algorithms.
