Particle Swarm Optimization Training Algorithm for ANNs in Stage Prediction of Shing Mun River

TL;DR: It is shown that the PSO technique can act as an alternative training algorithm for ANNs and is applied to predict water levels in Shing Mun River of Hong Kong with different lead times on the basis of the upstream gauging stations or stage/time history at the specific station.

Artificial intelligence for the prediction of water quality index in groundwater systems

TL;DR: Comparison among the performance of different methods for WQI prediction shows that the minimum generalization ability has been obtained for the Bayesian regularization method and Ensemble averaging method and these methods showed the minimum over-fitting problem compared with that of early stopping method.

Prediction of body mass index in mice using dense molecular markers and a regularized neural network.

TL;DR: It is concluded that BRANN may be at least as useful as other methods for high-dimensional genome-enabled prediction, with the advantage of its potential ability of capturing non-linear relationships, which may be useful in the study of quantitative traits under complex gene action.

Training feedforward networks with the Marquardt algorithm

TL;DR: The Marquardt algorithm for nonlinear least squares is presented and is incorporated into the backpropagation algorithm for training feedforward neural networks and is found to be much more efficient than either of the other techniques when the network contains no more than a few hundred weights.

A direct adaptive method for faster backpropagation learning: the RPROP algorithm

TL;DR: A learning algorithm for multilayer feedforward networks, RPROP (resilient propagation), is proposed that performs a local adaptation of the weight-updates according to the behavior of the error function to overcome the inherent disadvantages of pure gradient-descent.

Bayesian interpolation

TL;DR: The Bayesian approach to regularization and model-comparison is demonstrated by studying the inference problem of interpolating noisy data by examining the posterior probability distribution of regularizing constants and noise levels.

Optimum Mismatched Filters for Sidelobe Suppression

TL;DR: In this article, the application of least-mean-squares approximate inverse filtering techniques to radar range sidelobe reduction is discussed, and a filter which completely suppresses the range sidelobes of a 13-element Barker sequence is only 0.2 dB worse than a matched filter in noise.
