神经网络的研究是当今社会前沿课题之一。在神经网络识别原理简介的基础上,对采面顶板类型识别问题进行了应用研究,其识别的正确率达100％。实例表明,神经网络是用于解决复杂非线性系统识别问题的有效方法,并可望在煤矿开采领域其它识别问题中得以推广应用 The research of neural network is one of the frontier topics in today’s society. On the basis of the introduction of neural network identification principle, the application of roof type recognition in coal face is studied, and the correct rate of recognition is up to 100%. The examples show that the neural network is an effective method to solve the identification problem of complex nonlinear systems and is expected to be applied to other identification problems in the field of coal mining
