  • Abstract
    The author details the approach and methodology used to build adaptive transfer functions in a feedforward backpropagation neural network and provides insight into the structure-dependent properties of using nonscaled analog inputs. The results of using adaptive transfer functions are shown to outperform conventional architectures in the implementation of a mechanical power transmission gearbox design expert system knowledge base
