Specially, it is compared with various weights of Backpropagation Neural Network and it is compared with threshold level of edge detection in preprocessing method for entrance into Multi-Layer Perceptron(Backpropagation Neural network). Also, the pattern recognition techniques is applied to the classification problem of defects in semiconductor packages as normal, crack, delamination. According to this results, it is possible to acquire the recognition rate of 100% for Backpropagation Neural Network.

In the learning phase of multilyer feedforword neural network,there are problems such that local minimum,learning praralysis and slow learning speed when backpropagation algorithm used.To overcome these problems, the genetic algorithm has been used as learing method in the multilayer feedforword neural network instead of backpropagation algorithm.However,because the genetic algorith, does not have any mechanism for fine-tuned local search used in backpropagation method,it takes more time that the genetic algorithm converges to a global optimal solution.In this paper,we suggest a new GA-BP method which provides a fine-tunes local search to the genetic algorithm.GA-BP method uses gradient descent method as one of genetic algorithm's operators such as mutation or crossover.To show the effciency of the developed method,we applied it to the 3-parity bit problem with analysis.

Artificial neural networks (ANN) have successfully applied into various areas. But, How to effectively established network is the one of the critical problem. This study will focus on this problem and try to extensively study. Firstly, four different learning algorithms ANNs were constructed. The learning algorithms include backpropagation, simulated annealing, genetic algorithm, and tabu search. The experimental results of the above four different learning algorithms were tested by statistical analysis. The training RMS, training time, and testing RMS were used as the comparison criteria.

In this paper, we propose a ADALINE controller using fuzzy-backpropagation algorithm to adjust weight. In the proposed ADALINE controller, using fuzzy algorithm for traning neural network, controller make use of ADALINE due to simple and computing efficiency. This controller includes adaptive learning rate to accelerate teaming. It applies to servo-motor as an controlled process. And then it take a simulation for the position control, so the verify the usefulness of the proposed ADALINE controller.

Hardware implementation of the on-chip learning artificial neural networks is important for real-time processing. A pRAM model is based on probabilistic firing of a biological neuron and can be implemented in the VLSI circuit with learning capability. We derive a backpropagation learning algorithm for the pRAM networks and present its circuit implementation with stochastic computation. The simulation results confirm the good convergence of the learning algorithm for the pRAM networks.

We proposed an auto-tuning method of learning rate for performance improvement of backpropagation algorithm. Proposed method is used a fuzzy logic system for automatic tuning of learning rate. Instead of choosing a fixed learning rate, the fuzzy logic system is used to dynamically adjust learning rate. The inputs of fuzzy logic system are ${\Delta}$ and $\bar{{\Delta}}$, and the output is the learning rate. In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, we performed simulations on a N-parity problem, function approximation, and Arabic numerals classification. The results show that the proposed method has considerably improved the performance compared to the backpropagation, the backpropagation with momentum, and the Jacobs' delta-bar-delta.

The study on speech recognition and understanding has been done for many years. In this paper, we propose a new type of recurrent neural network architecture for speech recognition, in which each output unit is connected to itself and is also fully connected to other output units and all hidden units [1]. Besides that, we also proposed the new architecture and the learning algorithm of recurrent neural network such as Backpropagation Through Time (BPTT, which well-suited. The aim of the study was to observe the difference of Arabic's alphabet like "alif" until "ya". The purpose of this research is to upgrade the people's knowledge and understanding on Arabic's alphabet or word by using Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) and Backpropagation Through Time (BPTT) learning algorithm. 4 speakers (a mixture of male and female) are trained in quiet environment. Neural network is well-known as a technique that has the ability to classified nonlinear problem. Today, lots of researches have been done in applying Neural Network towards the solution of speech recognition [2] such as Arabic. The Arabic language offers a number of challenges for speech recognition [3]. Even through positive results have been obtained from the continuous study, research on minimizing the error rate is still gaining lots attention. This research utilizes Recurrent Neural Network, one of Neural Network technique to observe the difference of alphabet "alif" until "ya".

We propose an enhanced backpropagation algorithm by auto-tuning of learning rate using fuzzy control system for performance improvement of backpropagation algorithm. We propose two methods, which improve local minima and loaming times problem. First, if absolute value of difference between target and actual output value is smaller than $\varepsilon$ or the same, we define it as correctness. And if bigger than $\varepsilon$, we define it as incorrectness. Second, instead of choosing a fixed learning rate, the proposed method is used to dynamically adjust learning rate using fuzzy control system. The inputs of fuzzy control system are number of correctness and incorrectness, and the output is the Loaming rate. For the evaluation of performance of the proposed method, we applied the XOR problem and numeral patterns classification The experimentation results showed that the proposed method has improved the performance compared to the conventional backpropagatiot the backpropagation with momentum, and the Jacob's delta-bar-delta method.

Among the various artificial neural networks the backpropagation network (BPN) has become a standard one. One of the components in a neural network is an activating function or a transfer function of which a representative function is a sigmoid. We have discovered that by updating the slope parameter of a sigmoid function simultaneous with the weights could improve performance of a BPN.
