in this paper we propose a method for solving some well-known classes of lane-emden type equations which are nonlinear ordinary differential equations on the semi-innite domain. the proposed approach is based on an unsupervised combined articial neural networks (ucann) method. firstly, the trial solutions of the differential equations are written in the form of feed-forward neural networks co...

Vibration based techniques of structural damage detection using model updating method, are computationally expensive for large-scale structures. In this study, after locating precisely the eventual damage of a structure using modal strain energy based index (MSEBI), To efficiently reduce the computational cost of model updating during the optimization process of damage severity detection, the M...

In the present work, an artificial neural network (ANN) model was used to study the quantitative structure retention relationship (QSRR) of retention index (RI) of some volatile compounds in natural cocoa and conched chocolate powder. Molecular structural descriptors are selected using genetic algorithm to construct the nonlinear QSRR models, kernel partial least squares PLS (KPLS) and Levenber...

in general, amount of sludge will definitely increase in near future and composting processes, optimum composting conditions and compost use as fertilizer and soil amendment will then be significant research topics. the present study was conducted for o2 parameter estimation by multiple regression and artificial neural networks methods. daily temperature, ch4, h2s, co2 and o2 measurements were ...

background and objectives: rheological characteristics of dough are important for achieving useful information about raw-material quality, dough behavior during mechanical handling, and textural characteristics of products. our purpose in the present research is to apply soft computation tools for predicting the rheological properties of dough out of simple measurable factors. materials and met...

The artificial neural networks, the learning algorithms and mathematical models mimicking the information processing ability of human brain can be used non-linear and complex data. The aim of this study was to predict the breeding values for milk production trait in Iranian Holstein cows applying artificial neural networks. Data on 35167 Iranian Holstein cows recorded between 1998 to 2009 were ...
