Application of Artificial Neural Networks to Multiple Criteria Inventory Classification
نویسنده
چکیده
Original scientific paper Inventory classification is a very important part of inventory control which represents the technique of operational research discipline. A systematic approach to the inventory control and classification may have a significant influence on company competitiveness. The paper describes the results obtained by investigating the application of neural networks in multiple criteria inventory classification. Various structures of a back-propagation neural network have been analysed and the optimal one with the minimum Root Mean Square error selected. The predicted results are compared to those obtained by the multiple criteria classification using the analytical hierarchy process.
