scholarly journals General Regression Neural Network versus Back Propagation Neural Network for Prediction of Reheater and Super Heater Sprays in Thermal Power Plants

Neural Network models are used for Reheater and Super heater spray prediction in Thermal Power Plants. This paper makes a comparative study of the General Regression Neural Network (GRNN) model versus the Back propagation Neural Network (BPNN) model for the quality and accuracy of prediction of Reheater and Super heater Sprays in Thermal Power Plants. It proves that GRNN is better and gives more stable prediction within range; the glitches between the predicted and actual values being less in number as well as value

In this paper, the Auto-Regressive Moving-Averaging (ARMA) neural networks (NNs) will be incorporated for predicting the differential Global Positioning System (DGPS) pseudorange correction (PRC) information. The neural network is employed to realize the time-varying ARMA implementation. Online training for real-time prediction of the PRC enhances the continuity of service on the differential correction signals and therefore improves the positioning accuracy. When the PRC signal is lost, the ARMA neural network predicted PRC would temporarily provide correction data with very good accuracy. Simulation is conducted for evaluating the ARMA NN based DGPS PRC prediction accuracy. A comparative performance study based on two types of ARMA neural networks, i.e. Back-propagation Neural Network (BPNN) and General Regression Neural Network (GRNN), will be provided.

In this study we apply back propagation Neural Network models to predict the daily Shanghai Stock Exchange Composite Index. The learning algorithm and gradient search technique are constructed in the models. We evaluate the prediction models and conclude that the Shanghai Stock Exchange Composite Index is predictable in the short term. Empirical study shows that the Neural Network models is successfully applied to predict the daily highest, lowest, and closing value of the Shanghai Stock Exchange Composite Index, but it can not predict the return rate of the Shanghai Stock Exchange Composite Index in short terms.

This paper presents a solar power modelling method using artificial neural networks (ANNs). Two neural network structures, namely, general regression neural network (GRNN) feedforward back propagation (FFBP), have been used to model a photovoltaic panel output power and approximate the generated power. Both neural networks have four inputs and one output. The inputs are maximum temperature, minimum temperature, mean temperature, and irradiance; the output is the power. The data used in this paper started from January 1, 2006, until December 31, 2010. The five years of data were split into two parts: 2006–2008 and 2009-2010; the first part was used for training and the second part was used for testing the neural networks. A mathematical equation is used to estimate the generated power. At the end, both of these networks have shown good modelling performance; however, FFBP has shown a better performance comparing with GRNN.

Artificial neural networks (ANNs) are one of the most recently explored advanced technologies which show promise in the factory monitoring area. This paper focuses on two particular network models, back-propagation network (BPN) and general regression neural network (GRNN). The prediction accuracy of these two models is evaluated using a practical application situation in a monitor factory. GRNN emerged as a variant of the artificial neural network. Its principal advantages are that it can quickly learn and rapidly converge to the optimal regression surface with large number of data sets. According the simulation results we can show that GRNN is an effective way to considerably improve the predictive ability of BPN.

In this paper a neural network-based strategy is proposed for the estimation of the NOx emissions in thermal power plants, fed with both oil and methane fuel. A detailed analysis based on a three-dimensional simulator of the combustion chamber has pointed out the local nature of the NOx generation process, which takes place mainly in the burners’ zones. This fact has been suitably exploited in developing a compound estimation procedure, which makes use of the trained neural network together with a classical one-dimensional model of the chamber. Two different learning procedures have been investigated, both based on the external inputs to the burners and a suitable mean cell temperature, while using local and global NOx flow rates as learning signals, respectively. The approach has been assessed with respect to both simulated and experimental data.
