As the quality of yarn and the fiber indicators are nonlinear relationship, the traditional mathematical models or empirical formula has been unable to accurately resolve the problem. In view of artificial neural networks do not need to build accurate mathematical models, applicable to solving the problem of yarn quality prediction. In this paper, good nonlinear approximation ability of BP (Back Propagation) neural network be used, the use of neural network toolbox of MATLAB functions for modeling, good results was obtained. Prediction model set a hidden layer, using three-tier network architecture, and take the input layer 4 nodes, hidden layer 8 nodes and output layer 2 nodes. According to forecast results, can ensure the yarn quality effectively, use of raw materials rationally, to achieve optimal distribution of cotton. Meanwhile, the spinning process design can also be provided validation, for the development of new products to provide a theoretical basis.

Number of hidden neurons is necessary constant for tuning the neural network to achieve superior performance. These parameters are set manually through experimentation. The performance of the network is evaluated repeatedly to choose the best input parameters.Random selection of hidden neurons may cause underfitting or overfitting of the network. We propose a novel fuzzy controller for finding the optimal value of hidden neurons automatically. The hybrid classifier helps to design competent neural network architecture, eliminating manual intervention for setting the input parameters. The effectiveness of tuning the number of hidden neurons automatically on the convergence of a back-propagation neural network, is verified on speech data. The experimental outcomes demonstrate that the proposed Neuro-Fuzzy classifier can be viably utilized for speech recognition with maximum classification accuracy.

In this study, three artificial neural network (ANN) models are developed with back propagation (BP) optimization algorithms to predict various lightning damage modes in carbon/epoxy laminates. The proposed ANN models use three input variables associated with lightning waveform parameters (i.e., the peak current amplitude, rising time, and decaying time) to predict fiber damage, matrix damage, and through-thickness damage in the composites. The data used for training and testing the networks was actual lightning damage data collected from peer-reviewed published literature. Various BP training algorithms and network architecture configurations (i.e., data splitting, the number of neurons in a hidden layer, and the number of hidden layers) have been tested to improve the performance of the neural networks. Among the various BP algorithms considered, the Bayesian regularization back propagation (BRBP) showed the overall best performance in lightning damage prediction. When using the BRBP algorithm, as expected, the greater the fraction of the collected data that is allocated to the training dataset, the better the network is trained. In addition, the optimal ANN architecture was found to have a single hidden layer with 20 neurons. The ANN models proposed in this work may prove useful in preliminary assessments of lightning damage and reduce the number of expensive experimental lightning tests.

The stock market is a nonlinear dynamics system with enormous information, which is difficult to predict effectively by traditional methods. The model of stock price forecast based on BP Neutral-Network is put forward in this article. The paper try to find the way how to predictive the stock price. Exhaustive method is used for the hidden layer neurons and training method determination. Finally the experiment results show that the algorithm get better performance in stock price prediction.

AbstractThis paper examines the architecture of back-propagation neural networks used as approximators by addressing the interrelationship between the number of training pairs and the number of input, output, and hidden layer nodes required for a good approximation. It concentrates on nets with an input layer, one hidden layer, and one output layer. It shows that many of the currently proposed schemes for selecting network architecture for such nets are deficient. It demonstrates in numerous examples that overdetermined neural networks tend to give good approximations over a region of interest, while underdetermined networks give approximations which can satisfy the training pairs but may give poor approximations over that region of interest. A scheme is presented that adjusts the number of hidden layer nodes in a neural network so as to give an overdetermined approximation. The advantages and disadvantages of using multiple output nodes are discussed. Guidelines for selecting the number of output nodes are presented.

This paper investigates the solution of Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs) with initial conditions using Regression Based Algorithm (RBA) and compares the results with arbitrary- and regression-based initial weights for different numbers of nodes in hidden layer. Here, we have used feed forward neural network and error back propagation method for minimizing the error function and for the modification of the parameters (weights and biases). Initial weights are taken as combination of random as well as by the proposed regression based model. We present the method for solving a variety of problems and the results are compared. Here, the number of nodes in hidden layer has been fixed according to the degree of polynomial in the regression fitting. For this, the input and output data are fitted first with various degree polynomials using regression analysis and the coefficients involved are taken as initial weights to start with the neural training. Fixing of the hidden nodes depends upon the degree of the polynomial. For the example problems, the analytical results have been compared with neural results with arbitrary and regression based weights with four, five, and six nodes in hidden layer and are found to be in good agreement.


The world’s ever increasing demand for energy and abating global warming, suitable renewable sources of energy are highly in demand. The wastes from industries such as plant’s biomass could meet the energy requirements. In this paper authors analyze bio fuel plant system which produces ethanol fuel. This system is divided into various subsystems considering multiple phases in the production of ethanol. The structure of this system consists of interconnected networks of components on very large dimensional scales escalates the complexity of systems that can increase the degradation of system's functioning. In view of this, one of the computational intelligence approach, neural network (NN), is useful in predicting various reliability parameters. To improve the accuracy and consistency of parameters, Feed Forward Back Propagation Neural Network (FFBPNN) is used. All types of failures and repairs follow exponential distributions. System state probabilities and other parameters are developed for the proposed model using neural network approach. Failures and repairs are treated as neural weights. Neural network's learning mechanism can modify the weights due to which these parameters yield optimal values. Numerical examples are included to demonstrate the results. The iterations are repeated till the convergence in the error tends up to 0.0001 precision using MATLAB code. The reliability and cost analysis of the system can help operational managers in taking the decision to implement it in the real time systems
