The proposed method (ABC-ANN) is based on artificial neural network (ANN) which is trained by artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm. Because high order statistics are very interesting features to solve the problem of AMR, the high order cumulants have been employed in the proposed ABC-ANN classifier. ABC algorithm is used in finding the optimal weight set of artificial neural networks for classification and the performance of the proposed ABC-ANN algorithm is compared with the performance of ANN classifier (SCG-ANN) using scaled conjugate gradient learning algorithm. Computer simulation results have demonstrated that the proposed recognizer can reach much better classification accuracy than the SCG-ANN in even 0 dB of signal to noise ratio (SNR) value.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAutomatic modulation recognitionartificial bee colony algorithmartificial neural networkshigh order cumulantConference Object243N/A239WOS:000333968000048N/A
