Financial forecasting using meta-cognitive fuzzy neural networks by Singh Akhand Pratap

“…Some potential ways to address the above issues could be usage of synthetic data through time-series models to train the model till the test date; usage of manual inferences drawn from the indicators to make judgements about the present day; usage of multiple machine learning models and combining the results from all; usage of dynamic feature selection mechanism to make improvements to the prediction; and usage of dynamic thresholds that are dependent on the market conditions. …”

Comparative study on design of braced excavation systems by Toh, Yan Ting

“…From this study, the following findings are drawn: The Hardening Soil and the Hardening Soil with small-strain stiffness models generate conservative settlement profiles compared to the Mohr-Coulomb model; Combination 1 provides a conservative estimation of the wall bending moments; Upper strut forces are more conservative using DA1 Combination 1 while bottom strut forces are more conservative using DA1 Combination 2 Scheme 1; Scheme 2 gives a large bending moment than Scheme 1; The Mohr-Coulomb model, generally, gives a smaller maximum wall bending moment than the Hardening Soil model; findings from sheet pile excavation deviate from those from diaphragm wall excavations; and lastly, consideration of factored E50/cu ratio produces similar strut forces and bending moments compared to unfactored E50/cu values.…”
