A packet routing method for complex networks by a stochastic neural network

We propose a new algorithm for controling packet routing by a neural network. First, we show that the conventional method for a packet routing control using a neural network is not so effective when it is applied to a network with irregular topology. To overcome this problem, we propose a modified method with stochastic effects. In the present paper, we evaluated our proposed method for irregular, randomized and scale-free networks. Further, we compared our method with the conventional method and another modified method. We show that our proposed method exhibits better performance than the conventional routing method.
