Neural Networks
Published in Richard J. Roiger, Just Enough R!, 2020
The final step in the backpropagation process is to update the weights associated with the individual node connections. Weight adjustments are made using the delta rule developed by Widrow and Hoff (Widrow and Lehr 1995). The objective of the delta rule is to minimize the sum of the squared errors, where error is defined as the distance between computed and actual output. We will give the weight adjustment formulas and illustrate the process with our example. The formulas are as follows: wjk(new)=wjk(current)+Δwjk

where β is the learning rate, xk(t) is the actual output, and Ek(t) is the error, which is defined as the difference between the desired and actual outputs, i.e., Ek(t) = dk(t) − xk(t). This equation is an approximation to the Wiener-Hopf equation. For computation simplicity, it uses an estimate of the gradient of the error with respect to the weights instead of the actual gradient [19]. In the neural network literature, this equation is often called the Delta Rule. Using this equation and a learning rate β of 0.5, we can change the weights between the output layer and the hidden layer (the w¯jk′s), and the state of the network will change to the one shown in the second section of Table 10.2. One application of this equation is shown with the circles and arrows on Table 10.2.

Artificial neural networks (ANNs) are used to estimate functions that can depend on a large number of inputs and are generally unknown (Boger and Guterman, 1997; Braspenning et al., 1995). ANNs assign numeric weights to the connections between the input and output variables that can be tuned based on experience. There are many different kinds of learning rules used by neural networks, with the delta rule being the most popular. The delta rule learns by updating the weights depending upon the error magnitude (i.e., the difference between the predicted output and the actual output). An initial guess and subsequent error corrections due to weight adjustments lead to a final optimal weight. ANNs provide an analytical alternative to conventional techniques which are often limited by strict assumptions of normality, linearity, variable independence, etc. ANNs can capture many kinds of relationships and thus allow the user to easily model phenomena that are not easily explainable.

In Equation (3), is referred to as the weight between and in iteration (k + 1) and represents the derivative of concerning in iteration (k). Besides, γ indicates the learning parameters. The value of is required to use the learning algorithm because the Delta rule is a supervised learning algorithm that is based on the existence of target values for training vectors. In the current study, the values of normalized RPN can be used as In Step 4, the learning algorithm based on the Delta rule is employed to update causal relationships’ weights. In Step 6, the termination condition is applied to this learning algorithm by using Equation (4), where represents the derivative of E concerning and ɛ is a type of numbers which is not zero but near zero, and in the current study was set to be 0.00001 (Rezaee et al. 2018).
A Back propagation Neural Network Model for HWSNs Using IMIMO with a Secured Routing Mechanism
Published in IETE Journal of Research, 2022
Figure 2 shows the working of backpropagation. The Backpropagation algorithm [14] uses a technique called the delta rule or gradient descent that looks for the minimum value of the error function in weight space. X in the figure is the input that arrives through the pre-connected path. Input is modeled in such a way that using real weights W, selected randomly. The output of each is calculated from the input layer to the hidden and out layers. Then the error of the outputs is calculated. Once the error is determined, to decrease the error, the process again continues by traveling back from the output layer to the hidden layer for adjusting the weights. This process repeats until the desired output is achieved.

Artificial neural network (ANN) is a data-driven method inspired by the structure of the brain. As a machine learning method, ANN uses different layers of mathematical processing to learn from observing data sets. Therefore, ANN is utilised as a random function approximation tool as well as a classifier [45]. MLPANN is a classical type of artificial neural network. It takes advantages of some properties including fast operation, smaller dataset requirements and ease of implementation which make it the most used ANN. It is comprised of an input layer, an output layer and one or more hidden layer in between input and output layers (Figure 1). The hierarchical or multi-layered structure of the MLPANN, make it capable to learn nonlinear functions. In MLPANN, backpropagation algorithm compares the expected output and the output of the network in order to calculate the error [46]. This error is then propagated back through the network, one layer at a time, and the weights are updated according to the amount that they contributed to the error [47]. In other words, backward propagation of errors calculates the gradient of the error function with respect to the neural network's weights. It is a generalization of the delta rule for perceptrons to multilayer feedforward neural networks. The ‘backwards’ part of the name stems from the fact that calculation of the gradient proceeds backwards through the network, with the gradient of the final layer of weights being calculated first and the gradient of the first layer of weights being calculated last. Partial computations of the gradient from one layer are reused in the computation of the gradient for the previous layer. This backwards flow of the error information allows for efficient computation of the gradient at each layer versus the naive approach of calculating the gradient of each layer separately.
