Abstract

Selecting the optimal topology of neural network for a particular application is a difficult task. In case of recurrent neural networks (RNN), most methods only introduce topologies in which their neurons are fully connected. However, recurrent neural network training algorithm has some drawbacks such as getting stuck in local minima, slow speed of convergence and network stagnancy. This paper propose an improved recurrent neural network trained with Cuckoo Search (CS) algorithm to achieve fast convergence and high accuracy. The performance of the proposed Cuckoo Search Recurrent Neural Network (CSRNN) algorithm is compared with Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) and similar hybrid variants. The simulation results show that the proposed CSRNN algorithm performs better than other algorithms used in this study in terms of convergence rate and accuracy.
