In view of the virtue and shortage of genetic algorithm and BP network, this paper proposes a new BP network training method based on improved genetic algorithm (IGA-BP). This algorithm uses hierarchical code, adaptive crossover and mutation, pruning similar chromosomes, dynamic supply new chromosomes and other operations, so the network structure and weight are optimized at the same time and the "premature" phenomenon is avoided. The simulation results show that the IGA-BP network architecture is simple, the convergence rate is quick, and has good approximation and generalization ability.
