abstract   background : leukemia is one of the mostcommon cancers in children, comprising more than a third of all childhood cancers. newly affected patients in usa are estimated as 10100cases, and if these cases are diagnosed late or proper treatment is not applied, then it can be mortal. because rapid and proper diagnosis of leukemia based on clinical or medicinal findings (without biopsy) is...

the present investigation entails a procedure by which the surface tension and viscosity of liquids could be redicted.to this end, capillary experiments were performed for porous media by utilizing fifteen different liquids and powders. the time of capillary rise to a certain known height of each liquid in a particular powder was recorded. two artificial neural networks (anns) were designed and...

this study was conducted to investigate the prediction of growth performance using linear regression and artificial neural network (ann) in broiler chicken. artificial neural networks (anns) are powerful tools for modeling systems in a wide range of applications. the ann model with a back propagation algorithm successfully learned the relationship between the inputs of metabolizable energy (kca...

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.

This study was conducted to investigate the prediction of growth performance using linear regression and artificial neural network (ANN) in broiler chicken. Artificial neural networks (ANNs) are powerful tools for modeling systems in a wide range of applications. The ANN model with a back propagation algorithm successfully learned the relationship between the inputs of metabolizable energy (kca...

introduction: with using multiple linear regression (mlr), can simultaneously analyses several different variables, but to get the desirable results from the mlr, the samples must be much and accurate. therefore, this method has high sensitivity and may cause errors in results. in addition, to use this method, the variable must have normal distribution and modification follow from a linear rela...

In the present work, an artificial neural network (ANN) model was used to study the quantitative structure retention relationship (QSRR) of retention index (RI) of some volatile compounds in natural cocoa and conched chocolate powder. Molecular structural descriptors are selected using genetic algorithm to construct the nonlinear QSRR models, kernel partial least squares PLS (KPLS) and Levenber...

This paper uses nonlinear regression, Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Genetic Programming (GP) approaches for predicting an important tangible issue i.e. scours dimensions downstream of inverted siphon structures. Dimensional analysis and nonlinear regression-based equations was proposed for estimation of maximum scour depth, location of the scour hole, location and height of the dune downs...
