PROJECTS

Investigating the Use of Artificial Neural Networks as Surrogate Models (Master’s Thesis) May 2018
The aim of this project is to design and train an optimal artificial neural network (ANN), using techniques such as back propagation to act as a response surface surrogate (surrogate model), in order to approximate the response surface of computationally intensive models.
The project seeks to evaluate the performance of ANNs as surrogate models, by implementing various neural network techniques we can develop an artificial neural network acting as a surrogate model. Analysis of data, data modelling, reporting to the client on an agile method approach, were few processes undertaken throughout the completion of the project.
Main technologies used: Mat Lab, Alteryx, python.
