estimation (forecasting) of industrial production costs is one of the most important factor affecting decisions in the highly competitive markets. thus, accuracy of the estimation is highly desirable. hibrid regression neural network is an approach proposed in this paper to obtain better fitness in comparison with regression analysis and the neural network methods. comparing the estimated resul...

The paper contains description of a new clustering methodology that partitions data set into clusters, such that regression indetermination coefficient for data from each cluster is minimized. A clustering algorithm that realizes this methodology with genetic programming approaches, as well as, some experimental results are presented. The application of the algorithm for planning cellular telep...

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...
