SM-based neuromodels decrease the cost of training, improve generalization ability, and reduce the complexity of the ANN topology with respect to the classical neuromodeling approach. Five creative techniques are proposed to generate SM-based neuromodels. A frequencysensitive neuromapping is applied to overcome the limitations of empirical models developed under quasi-static conditions. Huber optimization is used to train the ANN’s. We contrast SM-based neuromodeling with the classical neuromodeling approach as well as with other state-of-the-art neuromodeling techniques. The SMbased neuromodeling techniques are illustrated by a microstrip bend and a high-temperature superconducting filter.engNeuromodelingComputer Aided Design (CAD)Design AutomationMicrostrip FiltersMicrowave CircuitsNeural Network ApplicationsNeural Space Mapping (NSM)Optimization MethodsSpace Mappinginfo:eu-repo/semantics/article
