EVALUATION OF CONCRETE COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH USING ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORK AND MULTIPLE LINEAR REGRESSION MODELS
In the present study, two different data-driven models, artificial neural network (ANN) and multiple linear regression (MLR) models, have been developed to predict the 28 days compressive strength of concrete. Seven different parameters namely 3/4 mm sand, 3/8 mm sand, cement content, gravel, maximums size of aggregate, fineness modulus, and water-cement ratio were considered as input variables...
متن کاملMeasuring the performances of Medical Diagnostic Laboratories based on interval efficiencies
The classic data envelopment analysis (DEA) models have overlooked the intermediate products, internal interactions and the absence of data certainty; and deal with analyzing the network within the “Black Box” mode. This results in the loss of important information and at times a considerable modification occurs in efficiency results. In this paper, a Three-stage network model is considered wit...
متن کاملDaily Pan Evaporation Estimation Using Artificial Neural Network-based Models
Accurate estimation of evaporation is important for design, planning and operation of water systems. In arid zones where water resources are scarce, the estimation of this loss becomes more interesting in the planning and management of irrigation practices. This paper investigates the ability of artificial neural networks (ANNs) technique to improve the accuracy of daily evaporation estimation....

متن کاملA comparative QSAR study of aryl-substituted isobenzofuran-1(3H)-ones inhibitors
A comparative workflow, including linear and non-linear QSAR models, was carried out to evaluate the predictive accuracy of models and predict the inhibition activity of a series of aryl-substituted isobenzofuran-1(3H)-ones. The data set consisted of 34 compounds was classified into the training and test sets, randomly. Molecular descriptors were selected using the genetic algorithm (GA) as a f...
متن کاملIn-silico prediction of Cellular Responses to Polymeric Biomaterials from Their Molecular Descriptors
In this work quantitative structure activity relationship (QSAR) methodology was applied for modeling and prediction of cellular response to polymers that have been designed for tissue engineering. After calculation and screening of molecular descriptors, linear and nonlinear models were developed by using multiple linear regressions (MLR) and artificial neural network (ANN) methods. The root m...
