## Abstract Experimental designs were compared using stacked‐layer feed‐forward neural networks. Several traditional three‐level designs and uniform designs were investigated using three‐factor linear and nonlinear models. The prediction error was found to be inversely proportional to the number of

Abstract
In this paper, a comparison study among three neural‐network algorithms for the synthesis of array patterns is presented. The neural networks are used to estimate the array elements' excitations for an arbitrary pattern. The architecture of the neural networks is discussed and simulation results are presented. Two new neural networks, based on radial basis functions (RBFs) and wavelet neural networks (WNNs), are introduced. The proposed networks offer a more efficient synthesis procedure, as compared to other available techniques. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract Growing interest in the use of artificial neural networks (ANNs) in rainfall‐runoff modelling has suggested certain issues that are still not addressed properly. One such concern is the use of network type, as theoretical studies on a multi‐layer perceptron (MLP) with a sigmoid transfer
A rainfall-runoff model based on an artificial neural network (ANN) is presented for the Blue Nile catchment. The best geometry of the ANN rainfall-runoff model in terms of number of hidden layers and nodes is identified through a sensitivity analysis. The Blue Nile catchment (about 300 000 km 2 ) i
