A Novel Assisted Artificial Neural Network Modeling Approach for Improved Accuracy Using Small Datasets: Application in Residual Strength Evaluation of Panels with Multiple Site Damage Cracks

An artificial neural network (ANN) extracts knowledge from a training dataset and uses this acquired knowledge to forecast outputs for any new set of inputs. When the input/output relations are complex and highly non-linear, the ANN needs a relatively large training dataset (hundreds of data points)...
