Title
Performance of small-world feedforward neural networks for the diagnosis of diabetes.
Abstract
Small-world feedforward neural networks for the diagnosis of diabetes are considered.The NewmanWatts small-world model outperforms the WattsStrogatz model.The NewmanWatts small-world model yields the highest output correlation.The NewmanWatts small-world model yields the best output error parameters. We investigate the performance of two different small-world feedforward neural networks for the diagnosis of diabetes. We use the Pima Indians Diabetic Dataset as input. We have previously shown than the WattsStrogatz small-world feedforward neural network delivers a better classification performance than conventional feedforward neural networks. Here, we compare this performance further with the one delivered by the NewmanWatts small-world feedforward neural network, and we show that the latter is better still. Moreover, we show that NewmanWatts small-world feedforward neural networks yield the highest output correlation as well as the best output error parameters.
