Organizations expose to financial risk that can lead to bankruptcy and loss of business is increased nowadays. This may leads to discontinuity in operations, increased legal fees, administrative costs and other indirect costs. Accordingly, the purpose of this study was to predict the financial crisis of Tehran Stock Exchange using neural network and genetic algorithm. This research is descripti...

in this study the wavelet neural network (wnn) and artificial neural network (ann) were used to simulate barley breakage percentage in combine harvester. the models have been trained using the same data conditions. air temperature, thresher cylinder speed, distance between thresher cylinder and concave (back and forth) and the percentage of barely moisture were as the input variables. the resul...

production of highly viscous tar sand bitumen using steam assisted gravity drainage (sagd) with a pair of horizontal wells has advantages over conventional steam flooding. this paper explores the use of artificial neural networks (anns) as an alternative to the traditional sagd simulation approach. feed forward, multi-layered neural network meta-models are trained through the back-error-propaga...

abstract: this paper represents a novel use of artificial neural networks in medical science. the proposed technique involves training a multi layer perceptron (mlp) (a kind of artificial neural network) with a bp learning algorithm to recognize a pattern for the diagnosing and prediction of five blood disorders, through the results of blood tests from h1 machine. the blood test parameters and ...

In this study, the photocatalytic method was used for treating the spent caustic in the wastewater of Olefin units used in petrochemical industries which contain large amounts of total dissolved solids (TDS). By using the synthetic photocatalyst of suspended titanium dioxide and measuring the chemical oxygen demand (COD) which was reduced in the photocatalyst (lbc) process, the values of COD we...

In this paper, a reliability approach on reconfiguration decisions in a supply chain network is studied based on coupling the simulation concepts and artificial neural network. In other words, due to the limited budget for warehouse relocation in a supply chain, the failure probability is assessed for determining the robust decision for future supply chain configuration. Traditional solving ...

to determine the amount of food amino acid and to spend time in the laboratories are expensive & time-consuming due to a chemical analysis. in the current laboratories, digestion nirs method is widely used for this purpose. but this method has technical limitation. therefor is important find appropriate method for estimate amount of amino acids. artificial neural network (ann) can provide a bet...

the paper deals with data envelopment analysis (dea) and artificial neural network (ann). we believe that solving for the dea efficiency measure, simultaneously with neural network model, provides a promising rich approach to optimal solution. in this paper, a new neural network model is used to estimate the inefficiency of dmus in large datasets.

cox regression model serves as a statistical method for analyzing the survival data, which requires some options such as hazard proportionality. in recent decades, artificial neural network model has been increasingly applied to predict survival data. this research was conducted to compare cox regression and artificial neural network models in prediction of kidney transplant survival. the prese...

This study was conducted to rate the land characteristics of corn in hot areas based on artificial neural networks and regression models. For this purpose, 63 corn fields were selected in southern Iran. In each farm, a pedon was excavated, described and sampled. A questionnaire was completed for each farm. A stepwise regression model was used to study the relationship between land characteristi...
