Improved genetic algorithm and neural network method and the application in fault diagnosis of valve diesel engine

摘要

As the shortcomings of BP neural network slow convergence rate, falling into local minimum easily and difficult to determine the number of hidden nodes accurately, the number of hidden nodes, weights and threshold of BP neural network were optimized, using binary and real number hybrid coding based on genetic algorithms with global searching ability. Finally, the method tested with WD615 diesel engine valve fault diagnosis data. Experimental results showed that this algorithm has obvious advantages, it is able to overcome the deficiencies of BP neural network, and improves the network's learning ability.
