Abstract:Purpose -The purpose of this paper is to present a degenerated simplex search method to optimize neural network error function. By repeatedly reflecting and expanding a simplex, the centroid property of the simplex changes the location of the simplex vertices. The proposed algorithm selects the location of the centroid of a simplex as the possible minimum point of an artificial neural network (ANN) error function. The algorithm continually changes the shape of the simplex to move multiple directions in error f… Show more
