For signal processing algorithm developers, MATLAB from The MathWorks is an essential tool. Its vector semantics and powerful visualization capabilities are a necessity for algorithm development.

While both are capable of modelling and simulating a control algorithm, each of them is highly suitable for certain tasks and applications.

Back Propagation is a common method of training artificial neural networks so as to minimize objective function. This paper describes the implementation of back propagation algorithm.

An MIT professor has now developed an algorithm that could be applied to a modified Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) system to help eliminate such traffic jams.

MathWorks announced that BuildingIQ is using the data analytics capabilities in its MATLAB tool to speed the development and deployment of predictive algorithms for HVAC energy optimization.
