Abstract
The relatively new field of natural computation has already many useful applications. In this paper the use of multivariate statistics and natural computation to probe process-structure-property relationships is demonstrated. An application of multivariate statistics and natural computation to the relationships between process conditions, physical structure and the (thermo-)mechanical properties of poly(ethylene terephthalate) yarns illustrates their usefulness.
