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...

The objective of this paper is to analysis of main soil properties such as organic matter, essential plant nutrients, micronutrient that affects the growth of crops and find out the suitable relationship percentage among those properties using Supervised Learning, Back Propagation Neural Network. Although these parameters can be measured directly, their measurement is difficult and expensive. B...

Artificial Neural Network (ANNs) techniques are recently indicating a lot of promises in the application of various micro-engineering fields. Such a use of ANNs for estimating the patch dimensions of a microstrip line feed rectangular microstrip patch antennas has been presented in this paper. An ANN model has been developed and tested for rectangular patch antenna design. The performance of th...

Back propagation is one of the well known training algorithms for multilayer perceptron. However the rate of convergence in back propagation learning tends to be relatively slow, which in turn makes it computationally excruciating. Over the last years many modifications have been proposed to improve the efficiency and convergence speed of the back propagation algorithm. The main emphasis of thi...

Back-propagation has been the workhorse of recent successes of deep learning but it relies on infinitesimal effects (partial derivatives) in order to perform credit assignment. This could become a serious issue as one considers deeper and more non-linear functions, e.g., consider the extreme case of nonlinearity where the relation between parameters and cost is actually discrete. Inspired by th...

This paper focuses on creation of Knowledge base for handling business dynamics using domain transformation by applying back propagation network.

In this study, artificial neural network was used to predict the microhardness of Al2024-multiwall carbon nanotube(MWCNT) composite prepared by mechanical alloying. Accordingly, the operational condition, i.e., the amount of reinforcement, ball to powder weight ratio, compaction pressure, milling time, time and temperature of sintering as well as vial speed were selected as independent input an...

Utilization of membrane humidifiers is one of the methods commonly used to humidify reactant gases in polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFC). In this study, polymeric porous membranes with different compositions were prepared to be used in a membrane humidifier module and were employed in a humidification test. Three different neural network models were developed to investigate several...

—The biggest challenge in the field of image processing is to recognize documents both in printed and handwritten format. Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is a type of document image analysis where scanned digital image that contains either machine printed or handwritten script input into an OCR software engine and translating it into an editable machine readable digital text format. A Neura...

There is little consensus on the corporate diversification-efficiency relationship in the diversification literature. According to the corporate diversification, firms have a tendency to get more market share with diversifying in the local segment or in the international market. Theoretically, a contradictory exists between the profitable strategy and the value reducing strategy in the diversif...
