The purpose of this chapter is to develop an analytical system for forecasting prices of financial assets with the use of artificial neural networks technology. Proposed by the authors, the analytical system consists of several neural networks, each of which makes the forecast of financial assets prices. The system includes recurrence (with feedback) neural networks with sigmoidal activation formula. This allows the networks to “remember” a sequence of reactions to the same stimulus. The learning process of neural networks is performed using an algorithm of back propagation of error. The key parameters of forecast for this analytical system are the indicators presented by the terminal MetaTrader 4-broker Forex Club: Average Directional и Movement Index; Bollinger Bands; Envelopes; Ichimoku Kinko Hyo; Moving Average; Parabolic SAR; Standard Deviation; Average True Range; and others.

Purpose Trajectory tracking is a common problem in the field of mobile robots which has attracted a lot of attention in the past two decades. Therefore, besides the search for new controllers to achieve a better performance, improvement and optimization of existing control rules are necessary. Trajectory tracking control laws usually contain constant gains which affect greatly the robot’s performance. Design/methodology/approach In this paper, a method based on neural networks is introduced to automatically upgrade the gains of a well-known trajectory tracking controller of wheeled mobile robots. The suggested method speeds up the convergence rate of the main controller. Findings Simulations and experiments are performed to assess the ability of the suggested scheme. The obtained results show the effectiveness of the proposed method. Originality/value In this paper, a method based on neural networks is introduced to automatically upgrade the gains of a well-known trajectory tracking controller of wheeled mobile robots. The suggested method speeds up the convergence rate of the main controller.
