Abstract

This paper presents a method to design a neural network for coin recognition by a genetic algorithm (GA). The GA specifies an architecture of neural network, but does not train the network. The back-propagation (BP) method trains the network. After training it by the BP, the GA varies the architecture of the network to fit the environment, which is to achieve a 100\% recognition accuracy and to make the network small in size. The network reduced by the GA is further decreased by using the BP with forgetting of weight. The object of this paper is to design a smaller neural network for hardware implementation of coin recognition system. Results by computer simulation show the effectiveness of the method to variably rotated coin recognition problem.
