Neural networks are increasingly being used in real-world business applications and, in some cases, such as fraud detection, they have already become the method of choice. Their use for risk assessment is also growing and they have been employed to visualise complex databases for marketing segmentation. This boom in applications covers a wide range of business interests — from finance management, through forecasting, to production. The combination of statistical, neural and fuzzy methods now enables direct quantitative studies to be carried out without the need for rocket-science expertise.This book reviews the state-of-the-art in current applications of neural-network methods in three important areas of business analysis. It includes a tutorial chapter to introduce new users to the potential and pitfalls of this new technology.

During these uncertain and turbulent times, intelligent technologies including artificial neural networks (ANN) and machine learning (ML) have played an incredible role in being able to predict, analyze, and navigate unprecedented circumstances across a number of industries, ranging from healthcare to hospitality. Multi-factor prediction in particular has been especially helpful in dealing with the most current pressing issues such as COVID-19 prediction, pneumonia detection, cardiovascular diagnosis and disease management, automobile accident prediction, and vacation rental listing analysis. To date, there has not been much research content readily available in these areas, especially content written extensively from a user perspective. Biomedical and Business Applications Using Artificial Neural Networks and Machine Learning is designed to cover a brief and focused range of essential topics in the field with perspectives, models, and first-hand experiences shared by prominent researchers, discussing applications of artificial neural networks (ANN) and machine learning (ML) for biomedical and business applications and a listing of current open-source software for neural networks, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. It also presents summaries of currently available open source software that utilize neural networks and machine learning. The book is ideal for professionals, researchers, students, and practitioners who want to more fully understand in a brief and concise format the realm and technologies of artificial neural networks (ANN) and machine learning (ML) and how they have been used for prediction of multi-disciplinary research problems in a multitude of disciplines.
