Prediction of bond ratings using statistical and neural networks techniques

Using Probabilistic Neural Networks and Rule Induction Techniques to Predict Long-Term Bond Ratings

Previous studies have implemented Backpropagation Feedforward Neural Networks (BPNNs) as an alternative technique to Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) to predict bond ratings using relatively small data sets due to the limited number of bond ratings data available. Although these studies report the superiority of BPNNs over the LDA to predict bond ratings, they seem to ignore that BPNNs suffer...

Prediction of Gas Lift Parameters Using Artificial Neural Networks

scour modeling piles of kambuzia industrial city bridge using hec-ras and artificial neural network

today, scouring is one of the important topics in the river and coastal engineering so that the most destruction in the bridges is occurred due to this phenomenon. whereas the bridges are assumed as the most important connecting structures in the communications roads in the country and their importance is doubled while floodwater, thus exact design and maintenance thereof is very crucial. f...

Prediction of the deformation modulus of rock masses using Artificial Neural Networks and Regression methods

Static deformation modulus is recognized as one of the most important parameters governing the behavior of rock masses. Predictive models for the mechanical properties of rock masses have been used in rock engineering because direct measurement of the properties is difficult due to time and cost constraints. In this method the deformation modulus is estimated indirectly from classification syst...
