The electricity market has experienced significant changes towards deregulation with the aim of improving economic efficiency. The electricity pricing is a major consideration for consumers and generation companies in deregulated electric markets, so that offering the right price for electricity has become more important. Various methods and ideas have been tried for electricity price forecasting. Artificial neural networks have received much attention with its nonlinear property and many papers have reported successful experiments with them. This paper introduces artificial neural network models for day-ahead electricity market in Turkey. Using gradient descent, gradient descent with momentum, Broydan, Fletcher, Goldfarb and Shanno (BFGS) and Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm with different number of neuron and transfer functions, 400 different models are created. Performances of different models are compared according to their Mean Absolute Percentage (MAPE) values; the most successful models MAPE value is observed as 9.76%. Keywords: electricity price forecasting, neural networks, day-ahead electricity market, Turkey. JEL Classification: C02, C13, C45, C53

In this paper, the artificial neural network method was used for Electrocardiogram (ECG) pattern analysis. The analysis of the ECG can benefit from the wide availability of computing technology as far as features and performances as well. This paper presents some results achieved by carrying out the classification tasks by integrating the most common features of ECG analysis. Four types of ECG patterns were chosen from the MIT-BIH database to be recognized, including normal sinus rhythm, long term atrial fibrillation, sudden cardiac death and congestive heart failure. The R-R interval features were performed as the characteristic representation of the original ECG signals to be fed into the neural network models. Two types of artificial neural network models, SOM (Self- Organizing maps) and RBF (Radial Basis Function) networks were separately trained and tested for ECG pattern recognition and experimental results of the different models have been compared. The trade-off between the time consuming training of artificial neural networks and their performance is also explored. The Radial Basis Function network exhibited the best performance and reached an overall accuracy of 93% and the Kohonen Self- Organizing map network reached an overall accuracy of 87.5%.
