The intensity non-stationarity is one of the basic characteristics of ground motions, the influences of which on the dynamic responses of structures is a pressing issue in the field of earthquake engineering. The BP neural network modified by the genetic algorithm was adopted in this research to investigate the influence of intensity nonstationary inputs on the structural dynamic responses from a new perspective. Firstly, many training data were generated from the prediction formula of dynamic response. The BP neural network was then pre-trained by sparsely selected data to optimize the initial weights and biases. Finally, the BP neural network was trained by all data, and the mean square error of predicted responses compared with the target response were less than 10−5. The calculation formula of sensitivity was also derived here to quantify the influence of the input change on the output. The presented method combines the advantages of neural networks in nonlinear multi-variable fitting and provides a new perspective for the study of earthquake nonstationary characteristics and their influence on the structural dynamic responses.

Genetic Algorithm can further optimize Neural Networks, and this optimized Algorithm has been used in many fields and made better results, but currently, it have not been used in inversion parameters. This paper used backscattering coefficients from ASAR, AIEM model to calculate data as neural network training data and through Genetic Algorithm Neural Networks to retrieve soil moisture. Finally compared with practical test and shows the validity and superiority of the Genetic Algorithm Neural Networks.

The evolutionary neural network can be generated combining the evolutionary optimization algorithm and neural network. Based on analysis of shortcomings of previously proposed evolutionary neural networks, combining the continuous ant colony optimization proposed by author and BP neural network, a new evolutionary neural network whose architecture and connection weights evolve simultaneously is proposed. At last, through the typical XOR problem, the new evolutionary neural network is compared and analyzed with BP neural network and traditional evolutionary neural networks based on genetic algorithm and evolutionary programming. The computing results show that the precision and efficiency of the new neural network are all better.

In the bidding evaluation, the deviations are likely to be brought about by experts' subjectivity, arbitrary and tendentiousness. A method for construction project bidding based on the BP neural network improved by GA (Genetic Algorithm) is proposed. On the basis of the basic theory of the BP neural network, discussions are provided on how to rectify the drawbacks of slow convergence and prone to convergence to minimum with the use of GA. The model is successfully applied GA - BP artificial neural networks to project, which are in concert with the result of experts. The study makes contribution to research about the evaluation system of construction bidding management.

A steady-statemathematical model of an activated sludgeprocess with a secondary settler was developed. With a limited number of training data samples obtained from the simulation at steady state, a feedforward neural network was established which exhibits an excellent capability for the operational prediction and determination.

AbstractSome pulsating post-AGB stars have been observed with an Automatic Photometry Telescope (APT) and a considerable amount of precise photometric data has been accumulated for these stars. The datasets, however, are still sparse, and this is a problem for applying nonlinear time series: for instance, modeling of attractors by the artificial neural networks (NN) to the datasets. We propose the optimization of data interpolations with the genetic algorithm (GA) and the hybrid system combined with NN. We apply this system to the Mackey–Glass equation, and attempt an analysis of the photometric data of post-AGB variables.
