Artificial immune systems and ANN in PMR coding

This study aims at introducing a new artificial intelligence technique beginning to be known in Turkey to model the human immune system. Artificial immune systems (AIS) are increasing their application areas day by day and becoming a problem solving technique due to their performance in these applications. ABNET (De Castro et al. (2000)) is an hybrid system that is a combination of artificial neural networks and immune based metaphors. In this study, the coding in PMR (private mobile radio) is performed with ABNET. To evaluate the results, the same coding problem is solved with an ANN system. With respect to the results of both systems, the applicability of ABNET to real world problems is discussed.
