Papers by Keyword: Back-Propagation Neural Network (BPNN)

Abstract: In this study, the back-propagation neural network (BPNN) was used to predict the number of low-income households (NLIH) in Taiwan, taking the seasonally adjusted annualized rates (SAAR) for real gross domestic product (GDP) as input variables. The results indicated that the lowest mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), mean squared error (MSE), root mean squared error (RMSE), and highest correlation coefficient (R) for training and testing were 4.759 % versus 19.343 %, 24429972.268 versus 781839890.859, 4942.669 versus 27961.400, and 0.945 versus 0.838, respectively.
