چکیده

More and more data about consumer-behaviour is becoming available through the use of database systems and electronic-banking systems. In this paper we describe a NN-based technique to extract some useful information from a database holding data about customers of an insurance-company. Using this NN, we try to learn more about the needs and wishes that lead consumers towards speciic behaviour, so that better service can be provided in the future. We formulate a more formal version of this problem, describe the NN used, and show results on artiicial and real data.

A Reliability Approach on Redesigning the Warehouses in Supply Chain with Uncertain Parameters via Integrated Monte Carlo Simulation and Tuned Artificial Neural Network

In this paper, a reliability approach on reconfiguration decisions in a supply chain network is studied based on coupling the simulation concepts and artificial neural network. In other words, due to the limited budget for warehouse relocation in a supply chain, the failure probability is assessed for determining the robust decision for future supply chain configuration. Traditional solving ...

Neural Network Modelling of Optimal Robot Movement Using Branch and Bound Tree

In this paper a discrete competitive neural network is introduced to calculate the optimal robot arm movements for processing a considered commitment of tasks, using the branch and bound methodology. A special method based on the branch and bound methodology, modified with a travelling path for adapting in the neural network, is introduced. The main neural network of the system consists of diff...
