چکیده
Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) are computer programs that emulate the operation of a large number of processing units that mimic the fundamental mechanisms of the biological activity of nervous cells as well as their connections and interactions. As a human brain, an ANN has the ability to learn from the experience of general relations between variables and thus ANN are particularly suitable to capture the natural complexity of medical data. Today ANN are widely used as a tool for computer aided diagnosis. This editorial discusses to what extent ANN can support Nuclear Medicine.

Bubble Pressure Prediction of Reservoir Fluids using Artificial Neural Network and Support Vector Machine
Bubble point pressure is an important parameter in equilibrium calculations of reservoir fluids and having other applications in reservoir engineering. In this work, an artificial neural network (ANN) and a least square support vector machine (LS-SVM) have been used to predict the bubble point pressure of reservoir fluids. Also, the accuracy of the models have been compared to two-equation stat...
متن کاملDetection of Single and Dual Incipient Process Faults Using an Improved Artificial Neural Network
Changes in the physicochemical conditions of process unit, even under control, may lead to what are generically referred to as faults. The cognition of causes is very important, because the system can be diagnosed and fault tolerated. In this article, we discuss and propose an artificial neural network that can detect the incipient and gradual faults either individually or mutually. The mai...
