Abstract: The soft computing technique of neural network is being extensively used across all disciplines of ocean engineering, namely, offshore, coastal, and deep-ocean engineering including marine engineering. This paper takes a stock of the research studies reported so far in these areas. It is found that, in general, neural networks provide a better alternative, either substitutive or complementary, to traditional computational schemes of statistical regression, time series analysis, patt...
