the descriptors computed by hyperchem® software were employed to represent the solubility of 40 drug molecules in supercritical carbon dioxide using an artificial neural network with the architecture of 15-4-1. the accuracy of the proposed method was evaluated by computing average of absolute error (ae) of calculated and experimental logarithm of solubilities. the ae (±sd) of data sets was 0.4 ...

in this study, we focused on the gait of parkinson’s disease (pd) and presented a gray box model for it. we tried to present a model for basal ganglia structure in order to generate stride time interval signal in model output for healthy and pd states. because of feedback role of dopamine neurotransmitter in basal ganglia, this part is modelled by “elman network”, which is a neural network stru...

there is a complicated relation between cold flat rolling parameters such as effective input parameters of cold rolling, output cold rolling force and exit thickness of strips. in many mathematical models, the effect of some cold rolling parameters has been ignored and the outputs have not a desirable accuracy. in the other hand, there is a special relation among input thickness of strips, the ...

In this work, an artificial neural network (ANN) model along with a combination of adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) i.e. (PSO-ANFIS) are proposed for modeling and prediction of the propylene/propane adsorption under various conditions. Using these computational intelligence (CI) approaches, the input parameters such as adsorbent shape (S<su...

in recent decades artificial neural networks (anns) have shown great ability in modeling and forecasting non-linear and non-stationary time series and in most of the cases especially in prediction of phenomena have showed very good performance. this paper presents the application of artificial neural networks to predict drought in yazd meteorological station. in this research, different archite...

abstract desertification could cause reduction of the ecological and biological potential of land which may occur both naturally and artificially. identifying and evaluating the effective factors in development of desertification is very important for better management of land. the aim of this research is to evaluate the sensitive input parameters in the desertification condition by using of ar...

abstract one of the major factors on the amount of water resources is river flow which is so dependent to the hydrologic and meteorologic phenomena. simulation and forecasting of river flow makes the decision maker capable to effectively manage the water resources projects. so, simulation and forecasting models such as artificial neural networks (anns) are commonly used for simulation and predi...

in this search drying characteristics of green pea (pisum satium) with an initial moisture content of 76% (db) was studied in a fluidized bed dryer assisted by microwave heating. four drying air temperatures (30, 40, 50 and 60ºc) and five microwave powers (180, 360, 540, 720 and 900w) were adopted. at each drying operating conditions the volume of green pea was calculated by measuring the three...

introduction this study is an effort to diagnose breast cancer by processing the quantitative and qualitative information obtained from medical infrared imaging. the medical infrared imaging is free from any harmful radiation and it is one of the best advantages of the proposed method. by analyzing this information, the best diagnostic parameters among the available parameters are selected and ...
