Abstract: | The increasing use of artificial neural network in the prediction of yarn quality proper-ties calls for constant improvement of the models. This research work reports the use of a novel training algorithm christened extreme learning machines (ELM) to prediction yarn tensile strength (strength). ELM was compared to the Backpropagation (BP) and a hybrid algorithm composed of differential evolution and ELM and named DE-ELM. The three yarn strength prediction models were trained up to a mean squared error (mse) of 0.001. This is an arbitrary level of mse that was selected to enable a comparative study of the performance of the three algorithms. According to the results obtained in this research work, the BP model needed more time for training, while the ELM model recorded the shortest training time. The DE-ELM model was in between the two mod-els. The correlation coefficient (R2) of the BP model was lower than that of ELM model. In comparison to the other two models the DE-ELM model gave the highest R2 value. |
