In this paper, an infinite impulse response locally recurrent neural network (IIR-LRNN) is employed for modelling the dynamics of the Lead Bismuth Eutectic eXperimental Accelerator Driven System (LBE-XADS). The network is trained by recursive back-propagation (RBP) and its ability in estimating transients is tested under various conditions. The results demonstrate the robustness of the locally recurrent scheme in the reconstruction of complex nonlinear dynamic relationships.

Dynamic neural networks have been applied to diverse fields requiring temporal signal processing such as signal prediction. This paper proposes the hybrid network, composed of locally(LRNN) and globally recurrent neural networks(GRNN), to improve dynamics of multilayered recurrent networks(RNN) and then describes nonlinear adaptive prediction using the proposed network as an adaptive filter. The hybrid network consists of IIR-MLP and Elman RNN as LRNN and GRNN, respectively. The proposed network is evaluated in nonlinear signal prediction and compared with Elman RNN and IIR-MLP networks for the relative comparison of prediction performance. Experimental results show that the hybrid network performs better with respect to convergence speed and accuracy, indicating that the proposed network can be a more effective prediction model than conventional multilayered recurrent networks in nonlinear prediction for nonstationary signals.

Dynamic neural networks have been applied to diverse fields requiring temporal signal processing. This paper describes system identification using the hybrid neural network, composed of locally(LRNN) and globally recurrent neural networks(GRNN) to improve dynamics of multilayered recurrent networks(RNN). The structure of the hybrid nework combines IIR-MLP as LRNN and Elman RNN as GRNN. The hybrid network is evaluated in linear and nonlinear system identification, and compared with Elman RNN and IIR-MLP networks for the relative comparison of its performance. Simulation results show that the hybrid network performs better with respect to the convergence and accuracy, indicating that it can be a more effective network than conventional multilayered recurrent networks in system identification.
