Abstract

This paper considers recent developments in the techniques for evaluation, in particular those which are useful, as alternatives to complex mathematical expressions, for modelling non-trivial, non-linear relationships. Neural Networks and Expert Systems, with the ability to learn, are considered in depth and a number of practical examples are included to show the techniques in operation.
