... and business performance of the organisation in the Indian context. Design/methodology/approach A two-stage, structural equation modelling (SEM) and artificial neural network (ANN) methodology are employed for the analysis, and for verifying the robustness of the developed model sensitivity analysis...

.... high-risk and low-risk task. The classified task is considered to analyze the performance of different tools like Artificial Neural Network (ANN), discriminant analysis (DA) and support vector machines (SVMs). Findings The work clearly demonstrates the accuracy and computational ability of ANN, DA...

...Farshad Faezy Razi; Seyed Hooman Shariat Purpose The purpose of this paper is twofold: the selection of project portfolios through hybrid artificial neural network algorithms, feature selection based on grey relational analysis, decision tree and regression; and the identification of the features...

...He-Boong Kwon; James Jungbae Roh; Nicholas Miceli Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to develop an artificial neural network (ANN) based prediction model via integration with data envelopment analysis (DEA) to provide the means of predicting incremental performance goals. The findings confirm...

...He-Boong Kwon; Jooh Lee; James Jungbae Roh Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to design an innovative performance modeling system by jointly using data envelopment analysis (DEA) and artificial neural network (ANN). The hybrid DEA-ANN model integrates performance measurement and prediction...

...-stage Stackelberg leader-follower data envelopment analysis (DEA) and artificial neural networks (ANN) were employed. Findings – Given that serviceability was treated as the leader and profitability as the follower, the first and second stage DEA scores were 55 and 32 percent (0 percent = totally...
