ABSTRACT

An application of neural networks to classify the performance status of business firms is performed. An artificial neural network (ANN) model is developed using publicly available dataset as input and output variables. Several different neural network topologies are designed and applied to the datasets. A neural network model classifies both high and low business performance status. The ANN model can enhance strategic and managerial insights by providing meaning...

Artifical neural network application for a predictive task in mining
Mining Engineering ; Abstract Artificial intelligence research has produced several tools for commercial application. Some of the techniques that are widely used today include neural networks, fuzzy logic and expert systems. Artificial neural networks (ANNs) are excellent predictive, pattern recognition and data
Preliminary investigation of neural network techniques to predict tribological properties
Tribology Transactions ; A complete evaluation of the tribological characteristics of a given material/mechanical system is a time-consuming operation since the friction and wear process is extremely systems-sensitive. As a result, experimental designs, i.e., Latin Square and Taguchi, have been implemented in an attempt to
