Neural Network

• Experiencing with different NN libraries
• By Manoj Katwal

2
Outline

• Aforge Library
• BackProp Library
• Tiberius Data Mining Software
• BrainNetIntro
• Multi Layer Perceptron (demo exe)
• Neural Network Very Simple (source code)

3
Aforge Library

• Availability Library to implement your own
  problem, Library Docs, and Sample source code
  implementing library
• What does it support?
• -- Neuro (NN our interest)
• -- Genetic Algorithm (for next HW)
• -- Image Processing (complex for now)

4
Contd(Aforge Library)

• Walking through the source code
• Implementation easy?
• Example (demo)

5
Back Propagation NN

• A C class implementation
• Nicely explained
• Reference http//www.codeproject.com/cpp/BP.asp

6
Tiberius Data Mining Soft.

• Software is available for download to use
• Need to get the license for the full features
• Academic license for Student
• High percentage of approval from users
• No programming knowledge required to use the
  software

7
Brain Net

• Source code is available for downlaod (FREE)
• In depth explanation
• Interesting example on Developing An
  Image/Pattern Detection System
• Lets take a look at the simple Image/Pattern
  detection demo
• Reference http//www.codeproject.com/useritems/ne
  uralnetwork.asp

8
Multi Layer Perceptron

• No source code available
• Executable file is available to download

9
Neural Network Very Simple Source Code

• Very simple easy to understand source code for
  starters

Example Automatic Eyeglass Removal

• An input face image.
• Face localization by Active Shape Model (ASM).
• Glasses recognition by a classifier.
• Glasses localization by Markov Chain Monte Carlo
  method (MCMC).
• Glasses removal by a set of training data.
