Abstract:Selecting the appropriate training technique is a significant step in utilizing intelligent approaches. It becomes even more important when it comes to critical problems like analyzing the bearing capacity of foundations. This study investigates the feasibility of a capable metaheuristic algorithm, called water cycle algorithm (WCA), for training a multi-layer perceptron (MLP). The WCA-MLP is applied to a large finite element dataset to predict the settlement. The results of this model are compared with electr… Show more
