Abstract
This paper reviews the current state-of-the-art in electromagnetic (EM)-based design and optimization of microwave circuits using artificial neural networks (ANNs). Measurement-based design of microwave circuits using ANNs is also reviewed. The conventional microwave neural optimization approach is surveyed, along with typical enhancing techniques, such as segmentation, decomposition, hierarchy, design of experiments, and clusterization. Innovative strategies for ANN-based design exploiting microwave knowledge are reviewed, including neural space-mapping methods. The problem of developing synthesis neural networks is treated. EM-based statistical analysis and yield optimization using neural networks is reviewed. The key issues in transient EM-based design using neural networks are summarized. The use of ANNs to speed up "global modeling" for EM-based design of monolithic microwave integrated circuits is briefly described. Future directions in ANN techniques to microwave design are suggested.

Bayesian Optimization for Broadband High-Efficiency Power Amplifier Designs

TL;DR: This paper proposes a novel, optimization-oriented strategy for the design of broadband, high-efficiency power amplifiers (PAs) using Bayesian optimization (BO), which outperforms a commercial electronic design automation (EDA) software's built-in optimizer, demonstrating that the EM-based BO is well-suited to the challenge of high power designs.

Backpropagation through time: what it does and how to do it

TL;DR: This paper first reviews basic backpropagation, a simple method which is now being widely used in areas like pattern recognition and fault diagnosis, and describes further extensions of this method, to deal with systems other than neural networks, systems involving simultaneous equations or true recurrent networks, and other practical issues which arise with this method.

Optimal Global Rates of Convergence for Nonparametric Regression

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the optimal rate of convergence for an estimator of an unknown regression function (i.e., a regression function of order 2p + d) with respect to a training sample of size n = (p - m)/(2p + 2p+d) is O(n−1/n−r) under appropriate regularity conditions, where n−1 is the optimal convergence rate if q < q < \infty.
