Industrial Applications of Neural Networks

Book excerpt: This book is a collection of real-world applications of neural networks, which were presented at the ICANN '95 conference of the European Neural Network Society. The contributions have been carefully selected by the Program Committee under three criteria: soundness of the technical approach, relevance for the application sector, and quality of the results obtained.The book covers all major areas of industrial and service activities: process engineering, control and monitoring, technical diagnosis and nondestructive testing, power systems, robotics, transportation, telecommunications, remote sensing, banking, finance and insurance, forecasting, document processing, and medicine. It thus represents one of the most comprehensive existing surveys of the applicability and use of neural networks in industry and services.
