MIGA, a software tool for nonlinear system modelling with modular neural networks

摘要

This paper presents a software tool suitable for dynamic system modelling. The models generated by this tool are modular neural networks. Each module behaves like a functional block and is connected to the other modules like in classical block diagrams. This tool allows the inclusion of a priori knowledge and, furthermore, to extract physical information from the models, once the system has learned. The modelling tool is capable of automatic model generation, parameter estimation and model validation.
