Despite of the many successful applications of backpropagation for training multi-layer neural networks, it has many drawbocks. For complex problems it may require a long time to train the networks, and it may not train at all. Long training time can be the result of the non-optimal parameters. It is not easy to choose appropriate value of the parameters for a particular problem. In this paper, by interconnection of fixed structure learning automata (FSLA) to the feedforward neural networks, we…
