Abstract
This paper is mainly based on the prediction of English grades, aiming at the data of students' English grades and personal identity during school, and establishes a fuzzy neural network prediction model based on the spike mechanism and genetic algorithm. First of all, in the aspect of parameter training of neural network optimization design, this paper adopts genetic algorithm as the learning algorithm of fuzzy neural network, so that the network can achieve the global optimum. Then, the spiking mechanism proposed based on the cerebral cortex information transmission mode and the Spiking neuron accumulation trigger (Integrate-and-Fire, IF) model is used to complete the structure growth and pruning of the fuzzy neural network, realize the dynamic adjustment of the network structure during the training process, and improve the performance of fuzzy neural network in English grade prediction application. Finally, after testing, it is found that the fuzzy neural network prediction model based on the spike mechanism and genetic algorithm proposed in this paper has a good performance.
