this paper describes a study of operational parameters by using the multivariate data analysis and neural networks for a municipal waste incinerator located in majorca (spain). the basis of the study also includes the chemometric techniques: linear multivariate regression to develop a model with certain predictive capabilities; linear principal component analysis, which allow the number of vari...

this study tries to codify a proper mathematical model which can be predict the costs of repair and maintaining the tractors as precisely as possible for three common models of tractors in shahid beheshti cultivation firm in andimeshk-ahvaz road of dezfoul. studied tractors include: newhland tm155 tractor which is chosen from the most perfect file of 10 tractor machines and jandier tractor-3140...

In this study, a method based on using image processing and artificial neural network is introduced to determine pelt color and curl size of newborn lambs in Zandi sheep. The data was collected from 300 newborn lambs reared in the Zandi sheep breeding centre of Khojir, Tehran. Primarily, curl size and pelt color of new born lambs was recorded by experienced appraisers, and at the same time, sev...

Artificial neural networks are intelligent systems that have successfully been used for prediction in different medical fields. In this study, the efficiency of a neural network for predicting the survival of patients with acute pancreatitis is compared with days-of-survival obtained from patients. A three- layer back-propagation neural network was developed for this purpose. Clinical data (e.g...

In this work, the artificial neural networks (ANN) technology was applied to the simulation of oleuropein extraction process. For this technology, a 3-layer network structure is applied, and the operation factors such as  amount  of  flow  intensity  ratio,  temperature,  residence  time,  and  pH  are  used  as  input  variables  of  the network,  whereas  the  extraction  yield  is  considere...

according to this fact that wind is now a part of global energy portfolio and due to unreliable and discontinuous production of wind energy; prediction of wind power value is proposed as a main necessity. in recent years, various methods have been proposed for wind power prediction. in this paper the prediction structure involves feature selection and use of artificial neural network (ann). in ...
