Application of BFGS-BP in Tunnel Deformation Monitoring Data Processing

Abstract

In order to overcome the disadvantages such as low calculation precision and convergence rate of traditional BP neural network algorithm, a kind of nonlinear optimization method-BFGS method for unconstrained extreme problem is introduced into BP neural network algorithm, and a BFGS-BP neural network model is developed, which is applied well in tunnel deformation monitoring data processing and forecasting with uncertainty and nonlinearity. With the example of the observation data of vault crown settlement of some tunnel construction process, the test of training and forecast experiments of BFGS - BP were developed. The result shows that BFGS-BP model has higher calculation precision and convergence rate than the traditional one.
