Home / NEWS / New, $190m mixed-use project launched in Sharjah
New, $190m mixed-use project launched in Sharjahby Michael Fahy on Feb 26, 2015
RELATED ARTICLES: Mace Macro pens contract with Sharjah University l Shoumous launches $149m Sharjah homes project l New law allows expats to buy in Sharjah
Sharjah-based property developer, JMS Property Development & Management, has launched a new, mixed-use scheme known as Al Rayyan in the Al Nadha district close to the Dubai border.
The $190.5m (AED700m) mixed-use project will contain residential, commercial and retail units spread across a 2.7m ft2 site.
The developer said that the scheme would be the first in Sharjah where properties are available under leaseholds to non-GCC residents of the UAE.
The project will contain two residential towers containing 504 apartments, one commercial tower and a retail complex. The top 12 floors of the commercial tower will also contain serviced hotel apartments and the mall will house a 204,500ft2 hypermarket and 80-90 shops.
The development will also house male and female spa facilities, landscaped leisure areas and 24-hour security. The developer aims to complete all of the residential and retail units by the end of Q1 2016, while the commercial tower will be completed to shell and core by Q2 2016.
The project has been designed by architecture practice B&H and will be built by Terna Construction.
Randa Kamal, CEO of JMS Property Development & Management, said: "The Al Rayyan development contains many 'firsts' for Sharjah. Mixed-use developments have coupled the residential offering with retail and leisure facilities, or with commercial space, but this is the first to combine all three lifestyle elements of living, leisure, and work. We are also delighted to be offering leaseholds to non-GCC expatriates."

Overall Experience:
There are some professors that I am not sure why they choose to do this as a profession, but that number is minimal compared to the amount of dedicated and well educated professors who are willing to make sure you are receiving the best possible education. Class sizes are usually around 30, which for a university is pretty small, meaning the professors are willing and able to help individuals and they really get to know you for you, not just a number.
Overall Experience:
A coach said he has never had an engineering student graduate that did not have a job lined up. The networking the school has with companies is outstanding and the internship opportunities are always there if the student is willing to go to advisors and ask about them. I am constantly receiving emails about internship opportunities for my major.
Health & Safety:
I find that walking around campus feels very safe and comfortable. During the day there are lots of people around, at night it feels better to be in a group. There are constantly police on bikes, in smart cars, and on foot patrolling the campus which is comforting.
I am currently a student-athlete and athletics offer many perks as well as responsibilities. As an athlete you get priority scheduling before all other students which is a nice perk. There are also varsity athlete- only weight rooms. With that being said there are still many areas for those not on varsity teams to work out. A brand new $100 million dollar athletic center will be completed in the fall of 2017! Also being a student-athlete comes with more academic meetings and mandatory study hall hours, but it offers more advising to help you stay on track and offer opportunities.
Overall Experience:
NJIT offers a wide variety of courses and professors, which allows each individual student to choose what interests them. Of course there are required course that may not be the most fun, but the peer mentors and TA's that I have dealt with are all incredibly helpful and approachable.
Health & Safety:
There are two police stations on NJIT campus. You will see a police car on every street. There are 3 types of police you will see around NJIT; Newark Police, NJIT police and Rutgers Police.
Campus Housing:
There are many options to consider when living on campus at NJIT. Freshmen will dorm in cypress hall their first year, then most move to Laurel hall. They all come with recreation areas, lounges, study rooms, kitchens (except cypress), Laundry rooms. Oak Hall is for seniors and graduates and is very hard to get into.
Greek Life:
Greek Life at NJIT is very popular. There is on and off campus housing for Greek students.
Popular sports at NJIT are basketball and volleyball, and a new athletics center is being built.
Overall Experience:
NJIT has an amazing internship program that will almost certainly land you a great job
Overall Experience:
Some professors are great at teaching. They often know what they are talking about. Other professors are great at what they do, but are terrible at teaching.
Health & Safety:
I think safety on campus is NJIT's top priority. We have or own police unit
Greek Life:
I havent heard much about NJIT's greek life but I know its there
Sports are good here. We have many Division 1 teams. I am planning to join a team come the fall semester
Overall Experience:
I have attended NJIT for about two months in a summer program.
Overall Experience:
The professors I have had have been wonderful and offered extra help to any student. They do their job well. Some are hard to understand but its a part of life dealing with people from other countries.
Overall Experience:
NJIT is honestly the best when it comes to value of a degree. Many students graduate with a job already and have great starting salaries.
Health & Safety:
We have had a few incidents of assault and a murder. It was definitely scary but the residents in the surrounding areas aren't the best.
Campus Housing:
I've only been inside them a few times since I commute. I did not want to live in Newark
Greek Life:
Greek life is good because it helps you socialize. NJIT is all about academics so most of the greeks are intelligent kids.
The athletics at our school definitely bring us together as a college. We get very involved and show our support all the time. Definitely a plus when it comes to this school since a lot of us are there for academics.
Overall Experience:
I have had an amazing experience so far. It has taught me how to be a responsible adult. I have experienced hard classes and work experience. I learned how to network and I have met plenty of people that can assist me in my future.
Drug Safety:
Do what you want at the end of the day, if you want to find stuff it's pretty easy to do so if you don't you can easily stay away and not ever come into contact with it.
Overall Experience:
NJIT is what you make of it there's bad things and good things about the school, but as long as you find a good group of friends college is going to be a blast.
Health & Safety:
Newark isn't the safest city, but campus itself is really safe. We have 5 police departments (NJIT Police, Rutgers Police, Essex County College Police, Newark Police, and Essex County Sheriffs) patrolling the area and the college has done practically everything to ensure that campus is safe, your pretty much can't go 2 minutes without having a cop pass you on patrol. Obviously things happen, but as long as you're not stupid on campus nothing will happen to you.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
First and foremost, NJIT is a school a student will want to choose if he or she is looking to major in mathematics or sciences. NJIT's math department rivals MIT's mathematics programs, and the school is always doing major research projects and developing new products or more efficient alternatives to what already exists. However, NJIT is, without a doubt, not the school to choose if a student has any inclination toward the humanities or liberal arts, unless he or she is interested in the technological aspect of social science. Outside of the intense curricula, major projects, and high hiring rates for NJIT graduates, there is very little that makes NJIT unique. The athletics department is not impressive; the social life is, for the most part, dead; and the staff does not work nearly as close to its students as professors claim to during the introductory sessions. Other than the school's stellar math and science reputation, the other benefits of NJIT are that the school has a varied food selection for students and that some of the buildings are new and impressive. There are also clubs to explore student interests and activities, though most of these are of a technological orientation, as well.
Overall, NJIT has a great curricula in the sciences, but it is not the school for those with interests extending beyond the realm of technology. While a student can make a tight-knit group of friends in this small student body, students are often so busy studying that social lives are the last thing a student can worry about.

Olfactory receptors interact with odorant molecules in the nose, to initiate a neuronal response that triggers the perception of a smell. The olfactory receptor proteins are members of a large family of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) arising from single coding-exon genes. Olfactory receptors share a 7-transmembrane domain structure with many neurotransmitter and hormone receptors and are responsible for the recognition and G protein-mediated transduction of odorant signals. The olfactory receptor gene family is the largest in the genome. The nomenclature assigned to the olfactory receptor genes and proteins for this organism is independent of other organisms.

LOS ANGELES (AP) Ś She was dissed on ôThe Bachelorö and came in third place during her first stint on ôDancing With the Stars,ö but Melissa Rycroft is now a winner.
The reality TV star and her professional dance partner, Tony Dovolani, were named the champions Tuesday on ABCĺs ôDancing With the Stars: All Stars.ö
The pair beat out fellow finalists (and former champs) actress Kelly Monaco and Olympian Shawn Johnson to claim the sparkly mirror-ball trophy.
Fellow contestants on the showĺs first ôall-starö season hoisted the new winners into the air as confetti rained down inside the ôDancing With the Starsö ballroom.
On the eve of the final competition, Rycroft said she felt confident and excited.
ôI want to feel like a champion,ö she said.
Tuesdayĺs two-hour season finale featured performances by the three finalists and each of the returning cast members: actors Pamela Anderson, Sabrina Bryan, Kirstie Alley and Gilles Marini; singers Joey Fatone and Drew Lachey; race car driver Helio Castroneves; reality TV star Bristol Palin; Olympic skater Apolo Anton Ohno; and football star Emmitt Smith.
Six of those contestants Ś Johnson, Monaco, Lachey, Ohno, Smith and Castroneves Ś were previous ôDancingö winners.
Rycroft and Dovolani came into the final contest with a pair of perfect scores. Those points were combined with viewer votes and a last set of judgesĺ scores for an ôinstant danceö for which they had less than an hour to prepare.
Rycroft was a contestant on ôThe Bachelorö in 2009 and first appeared on ôDancing With the Starsö that same year. The 29-year-old also starred in a reality series earlier this year, ôMelissa & Tye,ö about her marriage to Tye Strickland and their move to Hollywood so she could pursue an entertainment career.

I thought it'd be fun to see what the WZ fanbase thinks of this amazing Linebacker corp of the 49ers. With the recent spike in play from Ahmed Brooks, it kind of evens the playing field a bit on which LB is preferred. Consider what you value in a defense and what skillset each Linebacker brings to the table. This is not a poll about who has had the best career thus far.
If you were to start the regular season from week 1, and you had the Linebacker for only one year, which Linebacker do you go with?
In a pass happy league where all the explosive offenses feature a star Quarterback, a premiere pass rusher can tip the balance in favor of the defense. Offensive lines have to immediately account for where Aldon lines up whenever they get set. If Aldon is on his game, offensive lines must shift protection accordingly to help out whoever Aldon is lined up across from, which can create favorable matchups for other players along the front 7. He does a good job playing the run and although he won't be good dropping back in coverage, what he excels at more than makes up for his shortcomings. So although he may be a 'one trick pony', his trick is what makes GMs draft players like him top 10 overall. His character and commitment to the game are issues, but his willingness to admit himself to a treatment clinic shows he is pointed in the right direction. Much apologies to Willis, but Aldon is the guy I'm going with.

1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to the field of information processing, and in particular to machine learning, neural networks, and evolutionary algorithms.
2. Description of Related Art
Neural networks are commonly employed as learning systems. Neural networks can be structured in a variety of forms; for ease of understanding, a feed-forward neural network architecture is used herein as a paradigm for neural networks, although the application of the principles presented herein will be recognized by one of ordinary skill in the art to be applicable to a variety of other neural network architectures. A typical feed-forward neural network comprises one or more input nodes, one or more output nodes, and a plurality of intermediate, or hidden, nodes that are arranged in a series of layers between the input and output nodes. In a common neural net architecture, each input node is connected to one or mode hidden nodes in a first layer of nodes, each hidden node in the first layer of nodes is connected to one or more hidden nodes in a second layer of nodes, and so on until each node of the last layer of hidden nodes is connected to each output node. The output of each node is typically a nonlinear function of a weighted combination of each input to the node. In a feedforward neural net, when a set of input values is applied to the input nodes, the weighted values are propagated through each layer of the network until a resultant set of output values is produced. Other configurations of nodes, interconnections, and effect propagation are also common. For example, in some architectures, a node may be connected to one or more other nodes beyond its immediately adjacent layer.
In a learning mode, the resultant set of output values is compared to the set of output values that a properly trained network should have produced, to provide an error factor associated with each output node. In the case of pattern matching, for example, each output node may represent a likelihood that the input pattern corresponds to a particular class. Each input pattern is pre-categorized to provide an "ideal" set of likelihood factors, and the error factor is a measure of the difference between this "ideal" set and the set of output node values that the neural network produced. The error factor is propagated back through the network to modify the weights of each input to each node so as to minimize a composite of the error factors. The composite is typically the sum of the square of the error factor at each output node. Conceptually, the node weights that contributed to the outputs of the incorrect class are reduced, while those that contributed to the output of the correct class are increased.
Although the error factor can be propagated back based on each comparison of the ideal output and the result of processing each input set, preferably, a plurality, or batch, of input sets of values is applied to the network, and an accumulated error factor is back-propagated to readjust the weights. Depending upon the training technique employed, this process may be repeated for additional sets or batches of input values. The entire process is repeated for a fixed number of iterations or until subsequent iterations demonstrate a convergence to the "ideal", or until some other termination criterion is achieved. Once the set of weights is determined, the resultant network can be used to process other items, items that were not part of the training set, by providing the corresponding set of input values from each of the other items, to produce a resultant output corresponding to each of the other items.
The performance of the neural network for a given problem set depends upon a variety of factors, including the number of network layers, the number of hidden nodes in each layer, and so on. Given a particular set of network factors, or network architecture, different problem sets will perform differently. U.S. Pat. No. 5,140,530 "GENETIC ALGORITHM SYNTHESIS OF NEURAL NETWORKS", issued Aug. 18, 1992 to Guha et al, and incorporated by reference herein, presents the use of a genetic algorithm to construct an optimized custom neural network architecture. U.S. Pat. No. 5,249,259 "GENETIC ALGORITHM TECHNIQUE FOR DESIGNING NEURAL NETWORKS", issued Sep. 28, 1993 to Robert L. Harvey, and incorporated by reference herein, presents the use of a genetic algorithm to select an optimum set of weights associated with a neural network.
Genetic algorithms are a specific class of evolutionary algorithms and the term evolutionary algorithm is used hereinafter. Evolutionary algorithms are commonly used to provide a directed trial and error search for an optimum solution wherein the samples selected for each trial are based on the performance of samples in prior trials. In a typical evolutionary algorithm, certain attributes, or genes, are assumed to be related to an ability to perform a given task, different combinations of genes resulting indifferent levels of effectiveness for performing that task. The evolutionary algorithm is particularly effective for problems wherein the relation between the combination of attributes and the effectiveness for performing the task does not have a closed form solution.
In an evolutionary algorithm, the offspring production process is used to determine a particular combination of genes that is most effective for performing a given task. A combination of genes, or attributes, is termed a chromosome. In the genetic algorithm class of evolutionary algorithms, a reproduction-recombination cycle is used to propagate generations of offspring. Members of a population having different chromosomes mate and generate offspring. These offspring have attributes passed down from the parent members, typically as some random combination of genes from each parent. In a classic genetic algorithm, the individuals that are more effective than others in performing the given task are provided a greater opportunity to mate and generate offspring. That is, the individuals having preferred chromosomes are given a higher opportunity to generate offspring, in the hope that the offspring will inherit whichever genes allowed the parents to perform the given task effectively. The next generation of parents is selected based on a preference for those exhibiting effectiveness for performing the given task. In this manner, the number of offspring having attributes that are effective for performing the given task will tend to increase with each generation. Paradigms of other methods for generating offspring, such as asexual reproduction, mutation, and the like, are also used to produce offspring having an increasing likelihood of improved abilities to perform the given task.
As applied to neural networks, the chromosome of the referenced '530 (Guha) patent represents the architecture of a neural network. Alternative neural networks, those having different architectures, each have a corresponding different chromosome. After a plurality of neural networks have been trained, each of the networks is provided evaluation input sets, and the performance of each trained neural network on the evaluation input sets is determined, based on a comparison with an "ideal" performance corresponding to each evaluation input set. The chromosomes of the better performing trained neural networks are saved and used to generate the next set of sample neural networks to be trained and evaluated. By determining each next generation of samples based on the prior successful samples, the characteristics that contribute to successful performance are likely to be passed down from generation to generation, such that each generation tends to contain successively better performers.
The speed at which a particular neural network converges to an optimal set of weights is highly dependent upon the initial value of the weights in the neural network. Similarly, the likelihood of a particular neural network converging on a "global" optimum, rather than a "local" optimum, is highly dependent upon the initial value of the weights in the neural network. In like manner, the success of a particular neural network may be dependent upon the number of training cycles applied, whereas the cost of applying an unbounded set of training cycles may exceed the benefits derived. Globally, the likelihood of evolving to an optimal architecture may be highly dependent upon the selection of initial chromosomes used in the original ancestral chromosomes. Because of these dependencies on initial conditions, conventional evolutionary algorithms employ random values to initialize most states and conditions of each network, to avoid the introduction of biases that could affect the accuracy of the results. As such, the determination of an optimal neural network architecture via an evolutionary algorithm is an inherently "noisy" process. Potentially better performing architectures may score poorly because of the particular evaluation test set used, or because of inadequate training compared to a less robust architecture that is easily trained, and so on. In like manner, the use of randomly selected training sets or evaluation sets among the evaluated neural networks may cause potentially worthwhile architectures to be rejected prematurely, obviating the advantages realizable by a directed trial and error process.
It is an object of this invention to provide a method for improving neural network architectures via an evolutionary algorithm that reduces the adverse effects of the noise that is introduced by the network initialization process. It is a further object of this invention to reduce the noise that is introduced by the network initialization process. It is a further object of this invention to provide an optimized network initialization process. It is a further object of this invention to reduce the noise that is introduced by the use of randomly selected training or evaluation input sets.
These objects and others are achieved by including parameters that affect the initialization of a neural network architecture within the encoding that is used by an evolutionary algorithm to optimize the neural network architecture. The example initialization parameters include an encoding that determines the initial nodal weights used in each architecture at the commencement of the training cycle. By including the initialization parameters within the encoding used by the evolutionary algorithm, the initialization parameters that have a positive effect on the performance of the resultant evolved network architecture are propagated and potentially improved from generation to generation. Conversely, initialization parameters that, for example, cause the resultant evolved network to be poorly trained, will not be propagated. In accordance with a second aspect of this invention, the encoding also includes parameters that affect the training process, such as the duration of the training cycle, the training inputs applied, and so on. In accordance with a third aspect of this invention, the noise effects caused by the random selection of training or evaluation sets is reduced by applying the same randomly selected training or evaluation set to all architectures that are directly compared with each other.
The invention is explained in further detail, and by way of example, with reference to the accompanying drawings wherein:
FIG. 1 illustrates an example block diagram of a system for optimizing a neural network in accordance with this invention.
FIG. 2 illustrates an example flow diagram for optimizing a neural network system in accordance with this invention.
Throughout the drawings, the same reference numeral indicates a similar or corresponding feature or function.
FIG. 1 illustrates an example block diagram of a system 100 for optimizing a neural network 120 in accordance with this invention. The neural network 120 is illustrated as a learning system. When placed in the training mode, via selector 129, the input vectors 111 that are applied to the neural network 120 are derived from a training input 102A, via switch S1. An optional input processor 110 performs the formatting or processing requirements to convert the training input 102A, and other inputs 101 and 103A, into a suitable form 111 for processing by the neural network 120. In response to the input vector 111, the neural network 120 produces an output vector 121, using conventional neural network propagation techniques. As discussed above, the resultant output vectors 121 are dependent upon the architecture of the network (including the number of intermediate node layers between the input and output nodes, the number of nodes at each layer, and their interconnection), as well as the nodal weights assigned to each node.
As discussed above, U.S. Pat. No. 5,140,530 "GENETIC ALGORITHM SYNTHESIS OF NEURAL NETWORKS", incorporated by reference herein, presents the use of a genetic algorithm to construct an optimized custom neural network architecture. Additionally, copending U.S. patent application "IMAGE CLASSIFICATION USING EVOLVED PARAMETERS", U.S. Ser. No. 09/343,649, filed Jun. 29, 1999 for Keith Mathias, Murali Mani, J. David Schaffer, (Disclosure 1504-1346), presents encodings of evolved traits that represent different neural network architecture attributes, such as the number of hidden nodal layers and nodes per layer, and is incorporated by reference herein. Consistent with these referenced documents, the neural network 120 contains some fixed architectural features and constraints, as well as parameterized features that are modifiable by an external input. The evolutionary algorithm device 150 provides the one or more network architecture parameters 152 that affect the architecture of the neural network 120. The evolutionary algorithm device 150 also provides one or more network initialization parameters 151 that affect the initial condition of the neural network 120. In accordance with this invention, as discussed below, these network initialization parameters 151 are encoded in the traits of the sample neural network architectures that are presented to the neural network 150 for evaluation.
The neural network device 120 uses the network initialization parameters 151 and network architecture parameters 152 provided by the evolutionary algorithm device 150 to create a neural network architecture for processing each of the input vectors 111 to produce each output vector 121. Each of a plurality of training inputs 102A is applied to the current architecture of the neural network 150 in a sequential manner. As each output vector 121 is produced, it is compared, within the neural network device 120, to an output vector value 102B that a properly trained neural network device 120 should produce in response to the input 102A being applied. Using conventional feedback techniques, any differences, or errors, between the produced output vector 121 and the proper output vector 102B are used to adjust the nodal weights within the neural network so as to reduce such errors. As noted above, an accumulated error factor, based on a batch of input vectors, is preferably used to adjust the nodal weights, and the entire process is iteratively repeated to further refine the nodal weights.
A number of techniques can be applied to terminate the training cycle. A fixed number of iterations of the training inputs 102A may be applied; the training inputs 102A can be applied until the magnitude of the errors reach a predetermined acceptable limit; the application of training inputs 102A may be terminated after a predetermined time limit; or other termination tests, or combinations of tests, can be applied. In accordance with another aspect of this invention, the evolutionary algorithm device 150 also provides training parameters 153 that affect the training of the currently configured neural network architecture. The training parameters 153 may include, for example, the aforementioned training input quantity or duration limits, error thresholds, and the like.
At the termination of the training cycle, the resultant trained neural network within the device 120 is evaluated, using evaluation inputs 103A, via switch S1. As discussed above, the effectiveness of the training of the neural network, and the neural network itself, is dependent upon the initialization parameters 151, the architecture parameters 152, and the training parameters 153 that are provided to the neural network device 120 by the evolutionary algorithm device 150. Thus, an evaluation of the trained neural network provides a measure of effectiveness of the particular provided parameter set 151, 152, 153. Within the evolutionary algorithm device 150, the effectiveness of the trained neural network is determined by applying a sequence of evaluation inputs 103A and comparing the resultant output vectors 121 with corresponding proper evaluation output vectors 103B. A composite measure of the differences between each output vector 121 and each proper output vector 103B is associated with the parameter set 151, 152 as a measure of effectiveness for the parameter set 151, 152, 153.
By applying different parameter sets 151, 152, 153 and repeating the above training and evaluation process, a measure of effectiveness can be determined for each of these different parameter sets 151, 152, 153 and the most effective parameter set 151, 152, 153 can be identified and selected for use in the neural network device 120 for processing new inputs 101, inputs that do not have predetermined proper outputs, to produce new outputs 131 that are likely to be consistent with a proper output. That is, for example, if the neural network system 100 is trained and evaluated for classifying images, using training 102A and evaluation 103A input images that have corresponding proper output classifications 102B and 103B that are determined by a human expert, a new output classification 131 corresponding to a new input 101 can be expected to be consistent with a classification that the human expert would determine for the input 101. A more effective neural network can be expected to provide a classification 131 that is more likely to be consistent with the result that the human expert would provide.
FIG. 2 illustrates an example flow diagram for determining and applying different parameter sets 151, 152, 153 to a neural network system 100 in a directed trial and error search for an optimal neural network system architecture. This directed trial and error search is effected via an evolutionary algorithm, as would be embodied in the evolutionary algorithm device 150. An initial population 201 of sample parameter sets is created and stored as traits 211 of a current population 210, using conventional evolutionary algorithm encoding techniques. Each trait 211 typically corresponding to a gene or set of genes in a chromosome associated with each member of the population 210.
In contrast to conventional systems, the traits 211 of the population 210 include an encoding that provides at least one parameter 151 that affects the initial condition of the neural network 120, or at least one parameter 153 that affects the training of the neural network 120. For example, the encoding may specifically include randomly generated values for each nodal weight of the nodes in the neural network 120, or, for ease of coding, may include a seed value that is used to initialize a random number generator that generates each nodal weight in the neural network 120. In like manner, the encoding may be an index to a list of random values, or to a list of seeds for a random number generator. As is common in the art, a conventional random number generator, typically termed a pseudo-random number generator, repeatedly provides the same sequence of "random" numbers following an initialization with the same seed. In the illustrated example of FIG. 2, the performance evaluator 220 includes the functions, such as the aforementioned pseudo-random number generator, required to transform the member traits 211 into the initialization parameters 151, architecture parameters 152, and training parameters 153 that are provided to the neural network 120.
The traits 211 of each member of the population 210 are provided to the performance evaluator 220. The performance evaluator 220 provides the parameter set 151, 152, 153 to the neural network system 100. As discussed above, the neural network system 100 configures and initializes a neural network 120 corresponding to the provided parameter set 151, 152, applies the input training vectors 102A corresponding to the provided training parameters 153, and adjusts the nodal weights of the configured neural network based on the proper output training vectors 102B.
After the neural network that corresponds to the provided parameter set 151, 152, 153 is trained, it is evaluated as discussed above by applying evaluation input vectors 103A. The performance evaluator compares each output vector 121 corresponding to each evaluation input vector 103A with each proper evaluation output vector 102B, to form a measure of performance 221 associated with the particular parameter set 151, 152, 153. Because the parameter set 151, 152, 153 is derived from the particular member traits 211, the measure of performance 221 is likewise associated to the member.
Each member's traits 211 of the current population 210 are similarly processed so as to determine a measure of performance associated with each member of the current population 210. A selector 240 selects the better performing members of the current population 210 to provide a set of the best performers 241. A termination detector 250 determines whether to continue or terminate the search for an optimal neural network architecture, as discussed below. If the search is continued, the best performers 241 are provided to an offspring generator 260. The offspring generator 260 generates a new population 261 based on the traits of the best performing members 241. Any one of a variety of techniques, common in the art of evolutionary algorithms, can be applied to generate the new population 261, such as reproduction, pairwise recombination, mutation, and so on.
Depending upon the evaluation methods employed, the new population 261 may include both prior members of the population 210 as well as the newly generated offspring. If the same set of training 102A and evaluation 103A input vectors will be applied to each new current population 210, then there is no need to evaluate a member more than once. If random or changed input vectors are used, the new population will preferably include the prior members who performed well with a different set of input vectors, so that a comparable measure of performance can be obtained at each generation. That is, to minimize the likelihood of one member performing better or worse than another because of the training or evaluation sets applied to each, all members that are directly compared to each other are compared based on the same set of training or evaluation sets. In a preferred embodiment of this invention, a random selection of training 102A and evaluation 103A input vectors are selected at each generation. This randomly selected set of training 102A and evaluation 103A input vectors are applied to both the newly generated offspring, as well as the best performing members 241. In this manner, the subsequent best performance selection, at 240, is provided the measures of performance for each member based on the same set of training and evaluation vectors. By using a random selection of training and evaluation vectors at each generation, only robust members, those that perform well under a variety of circumstances, are likely to survive from generation to generation.
After each generation and evaluation of a new current population 210, the selector 240 selects a set of best performers 241 from each new current population 210. At some point in time, this process terminates, and the traits 251 of the best performer of the best performers 241 are provided to produce the preferred set of initialization 151 and architecture 152 parameters for production use by the neural network system 100. Because each new generation of offspring is determined based on the traits of the better performing members of the prior generation(s), the "best of the best" traits 251 are likely to provide an optimum, or near optimum, configuration of the neural network system 100.
The termination of the evolutionary process at 250 may be effected in a variety of ways. Generations of new members may be processed until a given time limit is reached, or until the variance among the best performers 241 is minimal, or until a given level of performance is achieved, or any combination of such criteria, as is common in the art.
The foregoing merely illustrates the principles of the invention. It will thus be appreciated that those skilled in the art will be able to devise various arrangements which, although not explicitly described or shown herein, embody the principles of the invention and are thus within its spirit and scope. For example, the training parameters 153 may also affect the selection of training input vectors 102A. For example, the trait 211 that determines the training parameter 153 may be a seed for a random number generator that determines which training vectors 102A to apply to the neural network 120 for training, or may be used to expressly determine particular vectors 102A, and so on. In like manner, other techniques for improving the performance of a neural network, or other trainable system, may be integrated with the techniques of this invention as well.
The particular structures and functions are presented in the figures for illustration purposes. Other system configurations and optimization features will be evident to one of ordinary skill in the art in view of this disclosure, and are included within the scope of the following claims.

Hot answers tagged date-time
if you need the gmt_offset then <?php echo get_option('gmt_offset'); ?> this will give you an integer like 2 or -2. and if you need the timezone string use <?php echo get_option('timezone_string'); ?> this will give you a string like America/Indianapolis
I know I'm three months late, but the function you want here is get_date_from_gmt(). The function accepts a GMT/UTC date in Y-m-d H:i:s format as the first parameter, and your desired date format as the second parameter. It'll convert your date to the local timezone as set on the Settings screen. Example usage: echo get_date_from_gmt( date( 'Y-m-d H:i:s', ...
If you can explain it in SQL, you can query for it! There are three places where we want to change the default query: SELECT wp_posts.* FROM wp_posts INNER JOIN wp_postmeta ON (wp_posts.ID = wp_postmeta.post_id) WHERE 1=1 AND wp_posts.post_type = 'post' AND (wp_posts.post_status = 'publish') AND wp_postmeta.meta_key = 'startDate' AND CAST(...
They are, very similar but with some nuances: function get_the_date( $d = '' ) { global $post; $the_date = ''; if ( '' == $d ) $the_date .= mysql2date(get_option('date_format'), $post->post_date); else $the_date .= mysql2date($d, $post->post_date); return apply_filters('get_the_date', $the_date, $d); } function ...
This is not really an answer, just an attempt to find the specific context for this problem. Please install the following plugin on your site, try to set the three dates and add your result to the second
 in the table below. /* Plugin Name: WPSE Sysinfo */ add_action( 'admin_footer', 'wpse_sysinfo' ); function wpse_sysinfo() { $bit = ...
You may notice that I did more or less exactly this for Matt's site: http://ma.tt. Every set of posts is grouped by the day. The basic principle is to keep track of your day in the loop, then print the date and related stuff only when it changes. Take a basic Loop: if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); the_title(); the_content(); ...
Check the Option Reference page. The option gmt_offset returns an integer. For example, if the timezone is set to Easter time, gmt_offset should be -5.
If you don't add a post_date then WordPress fills it automatically with the current date and time. To set another date and time [ Y-m-d H:i:s ] is the right structure. An example below with your code. $postdate = '2010-02-23 18:57:33'; $new_post = array( 'post_title' => $title, 'post_content' => $description, 'post_date' => ...
echo date('Y-m-d h:i:s', strtotime($cp->post_date)); ... or better use the wordpress functionado echo mysql2date('Y-m-d h:i:s', $cp->post_date);
I'm using something like this: date('F, Y', strtotime($data[0]->post_date));
There is a function in WordPress called current_time(); which you pass either 'timestamp' or 'mysql' to and it returns a time. For more information: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/current_time
Question and expectations While the literal form of this question is practical in context (year 1899) it is a little vague in theoretical sense. How old is old? How far into the past we might want to go? What about the future? Since WordPress had started out as blogging engine, in that contextual sense it evolved to handle following span of time: dates ...
As most template tags that start with the_ this one echoes time and not returns it (which template tags that start with get_the_ do). First the_time() fires and echoes year, then its return (null) gets concatenated and echoed with string. So: echo 'Archive for '; the_time('Y'); Or: echo 'Archive for ' . get_the_time('Y');
Yes, there isn't currently built-in support for CPT archives, but that doesn't mean you can't extend WP to provide it. I just did this myself the other day... This won't create the date-based archives you're looking for, but it will give you virtual archive behavior for custom post types. Adding the date should just be a matter of tweaking the rewrite rules ...
Firstly you'll need to stop storing the dates in D d.m format, the queries aren't going to be able to sort based on that data. As wyrfel pointed out, you'll need to use the alternate field option to have two fields, one that shows the pretty(or your chosen) date format, and another that holds the value you store in the DB(in a format that the queries can ...
EDIT: Your problem is this: When you save your meta data, you want the date to be saved as a strtotime() date, but you want it to display the date back in the old Y-m-d format. What you need to do is save it as strtotime() and then when displaying the text back in the input, you need to reverse that strtotime()so it can be displayed properly. You can do it ...
This is quite simple: just replace the get_the_date() or the_date() with echo human_time_diff(get_the_time('U'), current_time('timestamp')) . ' ago';
I ran into the same problem several times, following changes worked for me in the past: while (have_posts()) : the_post(); //some html
<?php echo get_the_date( 'Y-m-d' ); ?>

<?php the_time( 'H:i:s' ); ?>
 Instead of the_date(), use get_the_date(). The only thing to be ...
You're almost there. The number you see is a called Unix Timestamp. You can easily convert it using date_i18n like this: <?php echo date_i18n(get_option( 'date_format' ), $text); ?>
I don't see anything like it in the database, so you probably have to do this yourself. To save the last login time, you can hook into the wp_login action, and save a user meta value (like [myprefix]_lastlogintime). You first read this value, so you get the previous login time, save this in the session, and then save the new login time. On the regular admin ...
You could easily do this using mysql: DELETE FROM wp_comments WHERE comment_date < DATE_ADD(CURDATE(), INTERVAL -6 MONTH)
Somehow I missed the current_time function, which gives a good description of the situation and how to properly deal with the need to get the current blog-local time. http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/current_time Though the purist in me still hates how WP makes the time zone setting in php.ini obsolete without giving you a choice. *grumble ...
You would just need to format the time that is returned by current_time() with the php date() function like this: $my_time = date('G', current_time('timestamp')); The param 'G' tells the function you just want to have the hour part (0 to 23) of the date. Have a look here: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php
Here's a sketch of another idea, where we create scheduling shortcuts to make it easier for the users: We can use the post_submitbox_misc_actions to add extra fields to the submit box: /** * Scheduling-Shortcuts fields. * * @see http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/a/168748/26350 */ add_action( 'post_submitbox_misc_actions', function() { if( ! ...

You use a lowercase y for a 2 digit year. For example (l, F j, Y) --> returns, Friday, September 24, 2004 and (l, F j, y) ---> returns Friday, September 24, 04
Here is the full (I think) list of valid date/time parameters to pass to the_date() and/or the_time().
get_the_date and/or get_the_time will return the date/time of the post rather than printing it.
Looking at http://www.php.net/manual/en/datetime.formats.date.php I dont think strtotime will convert a DD/MM/YYYY to time correctly. However it can do MM/DD/YYYY or YYYY/MM/DD. Try using the date format of YYYY/MM/DD Or if thats not to your liking then you can use the same date format but you will have to, on save, split up the date and convert it to ...
Despite what the Codex says, $postarr doesn't always get passed in, so you should just use $data. $data isn't a meaningful variable name, though, so I prefer $cleanPost. I'd also try removing the priority on the filter, since it's not usually necessary. It's also a good idea to set the slug (post_name) in addition to the title, and to avoid running the code ...

Love of travel and love of ethnic foods.
I can understand some Spanish, unfortunately Spanish speaking people can't usually understand me.

Any and all.

Traveling is my passion and I've spent time exploring Europe and South America. Florence is my favorite city, but I think the Greek Islands might be the most beautiful place on earth. Love great wine and ethnic foods of all kinds.
Great people. Thanks to Danielle for making it work.

DeMille's The Ten Commandments (1956) and Fred Zinnemann's A Man For All Seasons (1966), Christian movie fare hasn't exactly been burning up the box office. (In saying that, I realize I'm using box office receipts as a proxy for quality. Let me know if I'm missing any masterful Christian flicks by that admittedly imperfect criterion.)
Here's how bad it is:
