MATLAB Implementation of Sine Function Fitting with Neural Network Approaches

In this discussion, we can further explore the principles and methods of sine function fitting. First, we introduce the definition and characteristics of sine functions, along with their applications in mathematics, physics, and engineering domains. The MATLAB implementation typically begins with defining the sine wave using the sin() function and preparing training data with appropriate sampling intervals. Then, we examine the specific applications and advantages of various Backpropagation (BP) neural network algorithms in sine function fitting. For instance, we analyze the effectiveness and limitations of the standard backpropagation algorithm, gradient descent optimization, and stochastic gradient descent methods in approximating sinusoidal patterns. In MATLAB code, this involves creating neural networks using the feedforwardnet() function, configuring training parameters with trainlm (Levenberg-Marquardt) or traingdx (adaptive gradient descent) algorithms, and implementing custom training loops with explicit gradient calculations. Furthermore, we discuss improvements and extensions to BP neural network algorithms, such as the application of deep neural networks with multiple hidden layers using the deepNetworkDesigner app, and convolutional neural networks for spatial-temporal sine wave pattern recognition through convNet layers. Throughout the MATLAB implementation, key considerations include network architecture selection (number of hidden neurons), activation functions (tansig for hidden layers, purelin for output), and data preprocessing techniques like input normalization using mapminmax. By detailing these technical aspects, we can substantially expand the article's content while preserving core concepts and providing practical coding guidance.
