Hey everyone! I'm trying to determine the losses through a pipe network that consists of 254.5 feet of 0.75 inch diameter copper pipe. The flow rate is 0.37125 gpm, with a corresponding velocity of 0.26962 fps. The fluid is water at 150 degrees F. Based off that information, I have a...

I'm trying to implement this example http://www.cs.bham.ac.uk/~jxb/INC/l3.pdf (page 15) I'm trying to do Iteration training, but it seems as if the results always converging to a steady error rate that is too large to be acceptable, the values centering around 0 while they should be close to -1...

Hello, I'm interested in neural network programming but I am a beginner. Recently I wrote an example in C++ that I found in a book. It was a feedforward 3 layers network that learns the examples with the backpropagation algorithm. The aim of the network was to learn to "throw a stone": I taught...
