Abstract

In this paper, we implemented the neuro-computer called MY-NEUPOWER in our research to carry out the artificial neural networks (ANN) calculating. An application software was developed based on a neural network using back-propagation (BP) algorithm under the UNIX platform by the specified computer language named MYPARAL. This neural network model was used as an auxiliary controller in the temperature control of sinter cooler system in steel plant which is a nonlinear system. The neural controller was trained off-line using the real input-output data as training pairs. We also made the system description of adaptive neural controller on the same temperature control system. We will carry out the whole system simulation to verify the suitability of neural controller in improving the system features.
