Abstract:Artificial neural networks (ANNs) have been used for estimation in numerous areas. Raising the accuracy of ANNs is always one of the important challenges, which is generally defined as a non-linear optimization problem. The aim of this optimization is to find better values for the weights of the connections and biases in ANN because they seriously affect the efficiency. This study uses two approaches to do such optimization in an ANN. For this aim, we create a feed-forward backpropagation ANN using the functio… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
