Book Foundations of Wavelet Networks and Applications

Download or read book Foundations of Wavelet Networks and Applications written by S. Sitharama Iyengar and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-10-08 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally, neural networks and wavelet theory have been two separate disciplines, taught separately and practiced separately. In recent years the offspring of wavelet theory and neural networks-wavelet networks-have emerged and grown vigorously both in research and applications. Yet the material needed to learn or teach wavelet networks has remained scattered in various research monographs. Foundations of Wavelet Networks and Applications unites these two fields in a comprehensive, integrated presentation of wavelets and neural networks. It begins by building a foundation, including the necessary mathematics. A transitional chapter on recurrent learning then leads to an in-depth look at wavelet networks in practice, examining important applications that include using wavelets as stock market trading advisors, as classifiers in electroencephalographic drug detection, and as predictors of chaotic time series. The final chapter explores concept learning and approximation by wavelet networks. The potential of wavelet networks in engineering, economics, and social science applications is rich and still growing. Foundations of Wavelet Networks and Applications prepares and inspires its readers not only to help ensure that potential is achieved, but also to open new frontiers in research and applications.

Book Stable Adaptive Neural Network Control

Download or read book Stable Adaptive Neural Network Control written by S.S. Ge and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent years have seen a rapid development of neural network control tech niques and their successful applications. Numerous simulation studies and actual industrial implementations show that artificial neural network is a good candidate for function approximation and control system design in solving the control problems of complex nonlinear systems in the presence of different kinds of uncertainties. Many control approaches/methods, reporting inventions and control applications within the fields of adaptive control, neural control and fuzzy systems, have been published in various books, journals and conference proceedings. In spite of these remarkable advances in neural control field, due to the complexity of nonlinear systems, the present research on adaptive neural control is still focused on the development of fundamental methodologies. From a theoretical viewpoint, there is, in general, lack of a firmly mathematical basis in stability, robustness, and performance analysis of neural network adaptive control systems. This book is motivated by the need for systematic design approaches for stable adaptive control using approximation-based techniques. The main objec tives of the book are to develop stable adaptive neural control strategies, and to perform transient performance analysis of the resulted neural control systems analytically. Other linear-in-the-parameter function approximators can replace the linear-in-the-parameter neural networks in the controllers presented in the book without any difficulty, which include polynomials, splines, fuzzy systems, wavelet networks, among others. Stability is one of the most important issues being concerned if an adaptive neural network controller is to be used in practical applications.

Book Neural Networks for Localized Function Approximation

Download or read book Neural Networks for Localized Function Approximation written by and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We studied the complexity problem for neural network used in function approximation; i.e., the problem of estimating the number of neurons needed to provide a given accuracy of approximation for any function, unknown except for a few a priori assumptions. We developed a unified theory, applicable to the traditional neural networks, radial basis function networks, and generalized regularization networks. While our main objective was to provide a solid theoretical foundation for the subject, we have also developed new training paradigms, where no optimization based technique such as back-propagation is required. Thus, the training of our networks is very simple and entirely free of all the traditional shortcomings, such as local minima. Our ideas were tested to develop neural networks for prediction of time series, and beamforming in phased array antennas. In both cases, we obtained spectacular improvements over previously known results. Our work has resulted in 14 publications. In addition, the grant has facilitated the completion of our book on weighted approximation as well as the fulfillment of our obligations as an invited guest editor for a special issue of Advances in Computational Mathematics on Mathematical Aspects of Neural Networks.

Book Neural Networks in Optimization

Download or read book Neural Networks in Optimization written by Xiang-Sun Zhang and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People are facing more and more NP-complete or NP-hard problems of a combinatorial nature and of a continuous nature in economic, military and management practice. There are two ways in which one can enhance the efficiency of searching for the solutions of these problems. The first is to improve the speed and memory capacity of hardware. We all have witnessed the computer industry's amazing achievements with hardware and software developments over the last twenty years. On one hand many computers, bought only a few years ago, are being sent to elementary schools for children to learn the ABC's of computing. On the other hand, with economic, scientific and military developments, it seems that the increase of intricacy and the size of newly arising problems have no end. We all realize then that the second way, to design good algorithms, will definitely compensate for the hardware limitations in the case of complicated problems. It is the collective and parallel computation property of artificial neural net works that has activated the enthusiasm of researchers in the field of computer science and applied mathematics. It is hard to say that artificial neural networks are solvers of the above-mentioned dilemma, but at least they throw some new light on the difficulties we face. We not only anticipate that there will be neural computers with intelligence but we also believe that the research results of artificial neural networks might lead to new algorithms on von Neumann's computers.

Book Function Approximation Guarantees for a Shallow Neural Network Trained by Gradient Flow

Download or read book Function Approximation Guarantees for a Shallow Neural Network Trained by Gradient Flow written by Russell Gentile and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work features an original result linking approximation and optimization theory for deep learning. Several examples from recent literature show that, given the same number of learnable parameters, deep neural networks can approximate richer classes of functions, with better accuracy than classical methods. The bulk of approximation theory results though, are only concerned with the infimum error for all possible parameterizations of a given network size. Their proofs often rely on hand-crafted networks, where the weights and biases are carefully selected. Optimization theory indicates that such models would be difficult or impossible to realize with standard gradient-based training methods. The main result of this thesis proves that, for a single-layer neural network having m parameters, a conservative approximation rate, O(m−1/4), is achieved with gradient flow training on univariate functions. This is especially noteworthy since we make no assumption of overparameterization, as is typically done with neural tangent kernel (NTK) techniques. The proof relies on an assumption that the H1-norm of the residual error throughout the training process is uniformly bounded. This assumption is justified by numerical experiments which also show that rates beyond 1/4 are achieved in practice, indicating that a sharper theoretical result is most likely possible. Future work will focus on proving that the bounded H1 assumption is not needed and that variations of our main result can also be applied to multi-dimensional cases and deep networks.
