in this study, artificial neural network was used to predict the surface tension of 20 hydrocarbon mixtures. experimental data was divided into two parts (70% for training and 30% for testing). optimal configuration of the network was obtained with minimization of prediction error on testing data. the accuracy of our proposed model was compared with four well-known empirical equations. the arti...

natural fire inflicting irreparable damage to rangelands and forest areas is cause changes in landscape ecology. the purpose of this research is comparison of artificial neural network (ann) and line regression (lr) models to predict of forest and rangelands fires to this end, the data consist fire burned area and fire were used weather data over a period of 7 years (2006-2012(.the result indic...

water quality assessment provides a scientific basis for water resources development and management. this case study proposes a factor analysis- hopfield neural network model (fhnn) based on factor analysis method and hopfield neural network method. the results showed that the factor analysis (fa) technique was introduced to identify important water quality parameters. results revealed that bio...

Quantization is a well-known method for deep neural networks (DNNs) compression and acceleration. In this work, we propose the Sample-Wise Dynamic Precision (SWDP) quantization scheme, which can switch bit-width of weights activations in model according to task difficulty input samples at runtime. Using low-precision easy images brings advantages terms computational energy efficiency. We also a...
