the main purpose of this paper is prediction of tse corporate financial bankruptcy using artificial neural networks. the mean values of key ratios reported in past bankruptcy studies were selected for neural network inputs (working capital to total assets, net income to total assets, total debt to total assets, current assets to current liabilities, quick assets to current liabilities). the neu...

Slewing bearing, which is widely applied in tank, excavator and wind turbine, is a critical component of rotational machine. Standard procedure for bearing life calculation and condition assessment was established in general rolling bearings, nevertheless, relatively less literatures, in regard to the health condition assessment of slewing bearing, were published in past. Real time health condi...

Introduction: Treatment planning is the most important part of treatment. One of the important entries into treatment planning systems is the beam dose distribution data which maybe typically measured or calculated in a long time. This study aimed at shortening the time of dose calculations using artificial neural network (ANN) and finding the best method of training t...

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 veterinary drugs residues are also important pollutants found in milk, since veterinary drugs are commonly used in cattle management. considering the role of milk in human nutrition and its wide consumption throughout the world, it is very important to ensure the milk quality. a quantitative structure–retention relationship (qsrr) was developed using the partial least square (pls), kernel p...

an artificial neural network (ann) was used to analyse the capillary rise in porous media. wetting experiments were performed with fifteen liquids and fifteen different powders. the liquids covered a wide range  of  surface  tension ( 15.45-71.99  mj/m2 )  and  viscosity (0.25-21 mpa.s). the powders also provided an acceptable range of particle size (0.012-45 μm) and surface free energy (25.54-...

the aim followed in this study was to compare the performance of multiple regression vs neural network models to predict the activity of antioxidant enzymes super oxide dismutase (sod), cat alase (cat), ascorbate pero xidase (apx) and peroxidase (pox) in the shoots of wheat (triticum aestivum), alvand cultivar in a soil polluted with cadmium. the treatments consisted of four levels of cadmium (...
