Evaluation of multivariate linear regression and artificial neural networks in prediction of water quality parameters

This paper examined the efficiency of multivariate linear regression (MLR) and artificial neural network (ANN) models in prediction of two major water quality parameters in a wastewater treatment plant. Biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) as well as indirect indicators of organic matters are representative parameters for sewer water quality. Performance of the ANN m...

Comparison of Artificial Neural Networks and Cox Regression Models in Prediction of Kidney Transplant Survival

Cox regression model serves as a statistical method for analyzing the survival data, which requires some options such as hazard proportionality. In recent decades, artificial neural network model has been increasingly applied to predict survival data. This research was conducted to compare Cox regression and artificial neural network models in prediction of kidney transplant survival. The prese...

prediction of water quality indices by regression analysis and artificial neural networks

the quality of wastewater generated in any process industry is generally indicated by performance indices namely bod, cod and toc, expressed in mg/l. the use of toc as an analytica parameter has become more common in recent years especially for the treatment of industrial wastewater. in this study, several empirical relationships were established between bod and cod with toc using regression an...
