    In some other articles in this blog, I have already written about complex time series, recurrence quantification analysis (RQA) and neural networks. In this series of articles, I will discuss some points to take into account when combining the use of these two tools to identify patterns in complex series, such as detecting anomalies in electrocardiograms or electroencephalograms.

    With this article I conclude the series dedicated to the application of genetic algorithms to the design of neural networks. I will explain the most relevant code of the sample application given with these articles, mainly the classes dedicated to the genes management and the selection process. You can find more information in the previous articles of the series.

    In this second article on the application of evolutionary algorithms to the optimization of the design of neural networks, I am going to provide a small sample application that allows you to build and train networks, in addition to using this type of algorithms to find the best configuration for a given data set. The application allows generating artificial test data, and I provide the source code for you to be able to modify it, as you want.

    When we try to apply a neural network to a given problem, finding the most suitable topology for it can be a tedious trial and error task, as well as end up producing a poorly optimized network. To automate this process, we can draw on evolutionary algorithms, inspired in the natural selection of living organisms, which can greatly facilitate our job.

    One of the most popular algorithms for training multilayer artificial neural networks is the back propagation algorithm, or retro-propagation algorithm. In this article I will try to explain its fundamentals, through a simplified implementation of a neural network that allows testing with different configurations of the network.

    In this article I will show how, through a very simple and totally deterministic process, we can move from a stationary system to a completely random one, going through periodic and chaotic dynamics. For this, I will generate several time series with these characteristics using the program R and several packages that can help us in the analysis of them.

    The recurrent neural networks are a very appropriate tool for modeling time series. This is a type of network architecture that implements some kind of memory and, therefore, a sense of time. This is achieved by implementing some neurons receiving as input the output of one of the hidden layers, and injecting their output again in that layer. In this article I will show a simple way to use two neural networks of this kind, the Elman and Jordan ones, using the program R.
