Efficient implementation of the functional links artificial neural networks with cross-terms for nonlinear active noise control.

This paper proposes an efficient extension of functional links artificial neural networks (EE-FLANN) for the active noise control (ANC) application. The developed EE-FLANN controller can upgrade the model accuracy with the actual system thanks to adding the cross-terms to the trigonometric function. Unlike the method in the generalized FLANN (GFLANN) controller, the EE-FLANN exploits include cross-term symmetry. However, this causes the computational burden to increase remarkably. To reduce this disadvantage, we truncate the cross-terms appropriately based on the simplified strategy. Furthermore, the adaptive algorithm is designed to partially update the filter coefficients appropriately. Specifically, the cross-terms that do not satisfy certain magnitude conditions will be omitted during the update process to reduce costs. Experiments have shown that the proposed EE-FLANN controller can achieve comparable performance to the GFLANN controller but the complexity is reduced by up to 20%. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
