Hardware implementation of artificial neural networks | |
imposes a variety of constraints. Finite weight | |
magnitudes exist in both digital and analog devices. | |
Additional limitations are encountered due to the | |
imprecise nature of hardware components. These | |
constraints can be overcome with a stochastic global | |
optimization strategy which effectively searches the | |
range of the weight space and is robust to quantization | |
and modeling errors. Evolutionary programming is proposed | |
as a solution to training networks with these | |
constraints. This work investigates the use of | |
evolutionary programming in optimizing a network with | |
weight constraints. Comparisons are made to the | |
backpropagation training algorithm for networks with both | |
unconstrained and hard-limited weight magnitudes. Neural | |
