Kohonen’s learning vector quantization (LVQ) is an efficient neural network based technique for pattern recognition. The performance of the method depends on proper selection of the learning parameters. Over-training may cause a degradation in recognition rate of the final classifier. In this paper we introduce constrained learning vector quantization (CLVQ). In this method the updated coefficients in each iteration are accepted only if the recognition performance of the classifier after updating is not decreased for the training samples compared with that before updating, a constraint widely used in many prototype editing procedures to simplify and optimize a nearest neighbor classifier (NNC). An efficient computer algorithm is developed to implement this constraint. The method is verified with experimental results. It is shown that CLVQ outperforms and may even require much less training time than LVQ.

To forecast time series data, two methodological frameworks of statistical and computational intelligence modelling are considered. The statistical methodological approach is based on the theory of invertible ARIMA (Auto-Regressive Integrated Moving Average) models with Maximum Likelihood (ML) estimating method. As a competitive tool to statistical forecasting models, we use the popular classic neural network (NN) of perceptron type. To train NN, the Back-Propagation (BP) algorithm and heuristics like genetic and micro-genetic algorithm (GA and MGA) are implemented on the large data set. A comparative analysis of selected learning methods is performed and evaluated. From performed experiments we find that the optimal population size will likely be 20 with the lowest training time from all NN trained by the evolutionary algorithms, while the prediction accuracy level is lesser, but still acceptable by managers.
