nowadays, credit risk is recognized as one of the most important bankruptcy factors of banks and financial institutions. in order to manage and control this risk, design of credit rating models is undeniable necessity. credit rating is used to identify the probability of credit default and on the other side classify the customers into two groups: good and bad accounts. until now, various statis...

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...

application of distributed generation (dg) units in distribution networks has increased in recent years. sizing and sitting of dg units are two important factors which should be considered, especially for reduction of power losses in distribution system. this paper presents a new approach for dg placement in distribution systems using the mixed integer nonlinear programming (minlp). this approa...

Gas hydrate formation in production and transmission pipelines and consequent plugging of these lines have been a major flow-assurance concern of the oil and gas industry for the last 75 years. Gas hydrate formation rate is one of the most important topics related to the kinetics of the process of gas hydrate crystallization. The main purpose of this study is investigating phenomenon of gas hyd...

a local scouring phenomenon is one of the important problems in hydraulic design of groynes. due to constriction and downward flow, the scouring can occur around the groynes. nowadays, the artificial neural networks have a lot of applications in various water engineering problems where there is not any specific relation between effective parameters. in this study, the artificial neural networks...

A supervisory hybrid system may be modeled from two levels: logic level (upper) and continuous level (lower). In this paper, adaptive fuzzy Petri nets and neural networks are combined together for supervisory hybrid system modeling. Adaptive Fuzzy Petri Net is adopted to model the supervisory logic parts, and dynamic neural networks are applied to continuous parts. Two hybrid system examples ar...

Abstract Current algorithms for quantum state tomography (QST) are costly both on the experimental front, requiring measurement of many copies state, and classical computational needing a long time to analyze gathered data. Here, we introduce neural adaptive (NAQT), fast, flexible machine-learning-based algorithm QST that adapts measurements provides orders magnitude faster processing while ret...
