The proposed network is a generalization of the network described by Elman, which has three layers including the input layer, the hidden layer and the output layer. The input layer is composed of two different groups of neurons, the group of external input neurons and the group of the internal context neurons. Since arbitrary connections can be allowed from the hidden layer to the context layer, the modified Elman network has more memory space to represent dynamic systems than the Elman network. In addition, it is proved that the proposed network with appropriate neurons in the context layer can approximate the trajectory of a given dynamical system for any fixed finite length of time. The dynamic backpropagation algorithm is used to estimate the weights of both the feedforward and feedback connections. The methods have been successfully applied to the modelling of nonlinear plants.展开更多

First, a support vector regression approach is applied to determine the initial structure and initial weights of the SVR-NN so that the network architecture is easily determined and the hidden nodes can adaptively be constructed based on support vectors. Furthermore, an annealing robust learning algorithm is presented to adjust these hidden node parameters as well as the weights of the SVR-NN. To test the validity of the proposed method, it is demonstrated that the adaptive SVR-NN can be used effectively for the identification of nonlinear dynamic systems. Simulation results show that the identification schemes based on the SVR-NN give considerably better performance and show faster learning in comparison to the previous neural network method.展开更多
