  • Abstract
    The importance of the activation functions in ANN is emphasized. A new ANN modeling method is proposed based on constructive algorithm and GP. This method can be used to realize the automatic optimization of the ANN´s net structure and the activation functions. As a result, the ANN´s constructure and generalization capability is greatly improved, it´s characteristic is better than the M-P feed forword neural network. This improvement is verified experimentally.
