Master Thesis Algoritmos genéticos e processamento paralelo aplicados à definição e treinamento de redes neurais perceptron de múltiplas camadas(Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, 2005-02-01) Albuquerque, Ana Claudia Medeiros Lins de; Melo, Jorge Dantas de; Dória Neto, Adrião Duarte; ; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1987295209521433; ; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7325007451912598; ; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3053521110028119; Coelho, Leandro dos Santos; ; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3483667901818921; Maitelli, André Laurindo; ; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0477027244297797; Lacerda, Estéfane George Macedo de; ; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1763651349773729ln this work, it was deveIoped a parallel cooperative genetic algorithm with different evolution behaviors to train and to define architectures for MuItiIayer Perceptron neural networks. MuItiIayer Perceptron neural networks are very powerful tools and had their use extended vastIy due to their abiIity of providing great resuIts to a broad range of appIications. The combination of genetic algorithms and parallel processing can be very powerful when applied to the Iearning process of the neural network, as well as to the definition of its architecture since this procedure can be very slow, usually requiring a lot of computational time. AIso, research work combining and appIying evolutionary computation into the design of neural networks is very useful since most of the Iearning algorithms deveIoped to train neural networks only adjust their synaptic weights, not considering the design of the networks architecture. Furthermore, the use of cooperation in the genetic algorithm allows the interaction of different populations, avoiding local minima and helping in the search of a promising solution, acceIerating the evolutionary process. Finally, individuaIs and evolution behavior can be exclusive on each copy of the genetic algorithm running in each task enhancing the diversity of populations
