β¦ Synopsis
Soft computing techniques have been recently exploited as a promising tool for achieving high performance in pattem recognition. This paper presents a hybrid method which combines neural network classifiers by genetic algorithm. Genetic algorithm gives us an effective vehicle to determine the optimal weight parameters that are multiplied by the network outputs as coefficients. The experimental results with the recognition problem of totally unconstrained handwritten numerals show that the genetic algorithm produces better results than the conventional methods such as averaging and Borda count.

This paper describes the implementation of a genetic algorithm to evolve the population of weight matrices for storing and recalling the patterns in a Hopfield type neural network model. In the Hopfield type neural network of associative memory, the appropriate arrangement of synaptic weights provid
A neural network model that recognizes sequential patterns without expanding them into spatial patterns is presented. This model forms trajectory attractors in the state space of a fully recurrent network by a simple learning algorithm using nonmonotonic dynamics. When a sequential pattern is input
