Estimation of coal swelling index based on chemical properties of coal using artificial neural networks

Free swelling index (FSI) is an important parameter for cokeability and combustion of coals. In this research, the effects of chemical properties of coals on the coal free swelling index were studied by artificial neural network methods. The artificial neural networks (ANNs) method was used for 200 datasets to estimate the free swelling index value. In this investigation, ten input parameters ...

Artificial neural networks versus bivariate logistic regression in prediction diagnosis of patients with hypertension and diabetes

Background: Diabetes and hypertension are important non-communicable diseases and their prevalence is important for health authorities. The aim of this study was to determine the predictive precision of the bivariate Logistic Regression (LR) and Artificial Neutral Network (ANN) in concurrent diagnosis of diabetes and hypertension. Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed with 12000 ...

Prediction of Gas Lift Parameters Using Artificial Neural Networks

Performance prediction of a thermal system using Artificial Neural Networks

Condenser is a device in which heat is transferred from one medium to another across a solid surface. The performance of condenser deteriorates with time due to fouling on the heat transfer surface. It is necessary to assess periodically the condenser performance, in order to maintain at high efficiency level. Industries follow adopted practices to monitor but it is limited to some degree. In t...
