production of highly viscous tar sand bitumen using steam assisted gravity drainage (sagd) with a pair of horizontal wells has advantages over conventional steam flooding. this paper explores the use of artificial neural networks (anns) as an alternative to the traditional sagd simulation approach. feed forward, multi-layered neural network meta-models are trained through the back-error-propaga...

Organizations expose to financial risk that can lead to bankruptcy and loss of business is increased nowadays. This may leads to discontinuity in operations, increased legal fees, administrative costs and other indirect costs. Accordingly, the purpose of this study was to predict the financial crisis of Tehran Stock Exchange using neural network and genetic algorithm. This research is descripti...

Routing is one of the basic parts of a message passing multiprocessor system. The routing procedure has a great impact on the efficiency of a system. Neural algorithms that are currently in use for computer networks require a large number of neurons. If a specific topology of a multiprocessor network is considered, the number of neurons can be reduced. In this paper a new recurrent neural ne...

A programmable cellular neural network has been designed in a 0.8μ CMOS technology. An arbitrarily large analog CNN can be constructed by modularly connecting ‘tile’ CNN chips, each with a modest number of cells. The network operates in continuous time, has a PWL output function, and the cell connections (template values) are realized as sets of switchable unit and half-unit transconductors. Ma...

The paper deals with Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN). We believe that solving for the DEA efficiency measure, simultaneously with neural network model, provides a promising rich approach to optimal solution. In this paper, a new neural network model is used to estimate the inefficiency of DMUs in large datasets.

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...
