Estimation (Forecasting) of industrial production costs is one of the most important factor affecting decisions in the highly competitive markets. Thus, accuracy of the estimation is highly desirable. Hibrid Regression Neural Network is an approach proposed in this paper to obtain better fitness in comparison with Regression Analysis and the Neural Network methods. Comparing the estimated resul...

one of the most important issues always facing banks and financial institutes is the issue of credit risk or the possibility of failure in the fulfillment of obligations by applicants who are receiving credit facilities. the considerable number of banks’ delayed loan payments all around the world shows the importance of this issue and the necessary consideration of this topic. accordingly, many...

in this paper, the application of neural networks for simulation and optimization of the cogeneration systems has been presented. cgam problem, a benchmark in cogeneration systems, is chosen as a casestudy. thermodynamic model includes precise modeling of the whole plant. for simulation of the steadysate behavior, the static neural network is applied. then using dynamic neural network, plant is...

An artificial neural network has been used to determine the volume flux and rejections of Ca2+ , Na+ and Cl¯, as a function of transmembrane pressure and concentrations of Ca2+, polyethyleneimine, and polyacrylic acid in water softening by nanofiltration process in presence of polyelectrolytes. The feed-forward multi-layer perceptron artificial neural network including an eight-neuron hidde...

The observation of peak flows into river or stream system is not straight forward but complex function of hydrology and geology. Accurate suspended sediment prediction in rivers is an integral component of sustainable water resources and environmental systems modeling. Agricultural fields’ fertility decays, rivers capacity decreases and reservoirs are filled due to sedimentation. The observatio...

strip tearing during cold rolling process has always been considered among the main concerns for steel companies. several works have been done so far regarding the examination of the issue. in this paper, experimental data from cold rolling tandem mill is used for detecting strip tearing. sensors are placed across the cold rolling tandem mill. they receive information on parameters (such as ang...
