A method for improving the performance of artificial neural networks for linear and nonlinear programming is presented. By analyzing the behavior of the conventional penalty function, the reason for the inherent degenerating accuracy is discovered. Based on this, a new combination penalty function is proposed which can ensure that the equilibrium point is acceptably close to the optimal point. A known neural network model has been modified by using the new penalty function and the corresponding circuit scheme is given. Simulation results show that the relative error for linear and nonlinear programming is substantially reduced by the new method.

In this paper, we discuss an exact augumented Lagrangian functions for the non- linear programming problem with both equality and inequality constraints, which is the gen- eration of the augmented Lagrangian function in corresponding reference only for inequality constraints nonlinear programming problem. Under suitable hypotheses, we give the relation- ship between the local and global unconstrained minimizers of the augumented Lagrangian function and the local and global minimizers of the original constrained problem. From the theoretical point of view, the optimality solution of the nonlinear programming with both equality and inequality constraints and the values of the corresponding Lagrangian multipli- ers can be found by the well known method of multipliers which resort to the unconstrained minimization of the augumented Lagrangian function presented in this paper.
