The most popular algorithm training feed-forward neural networks is the back-propagation algorithm which minimizes the error function using the steepest descent direction. In practice, although, even with a small learning rate which slows down the training process, the BP algorithm can exhibit oscillatory behavior when it encounters steep valleys. Trust region method has advantages of global convergence...
The radial basis function (RBF) is well known dynamic recursion neural network. However, RBF weights and thresholds, which are trained by back propagation algorithm, the gradient descent method and genetic algorithm, will be fixed after the training completing. The adaptive ability is bad. To improve RBF identification performance, particle swarm optimization (PSO), which is a stochastic search algorithm,...
The back-propagation (BP) network is widely recognized as a powerful training tool of the multilayer neural networks (MLNNs). Usually it suffers from a slow convergence rate and often results in local minimums, since it applies the steepest descent method to update the network weights. A variety of related algorithms have been introduced to address that problem. Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm is one...
A improved gradient-based backpropagation training method is proposed for neural networks in this paper. Based on the Barzilai and Borwein steplength update and some technique of Resilient Propagation method, we adapt the new learning rate to improves the speed and the success rate. Experimental results show that the proposed method has considerably improved convergence speed, and for the chosen test...
