چکیده

This study aims to develop an empirical correlation model for estimating the uranium content of the G-V in the Gabal Gattar area, northeastern desert of Egypt, as a function of the thorium content and the total gamma rays. Using the recent MATLAB software, the effect of selecting tan-sigmoid as a transfer function at various numbers of hidden neurons was investigated to arrive at the optimum Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model. The pure-linear function was investigated as the output function, and the Levenberg-Marquardt approach was chosen as the optimization technique. Based on ۱۲۲۱ datasets, a novel ANN-based empirical correlation was developed to calculate the amounts of uranium (U). The results show a wide range of uranium content, with a determination coefficient (R۲) of about ۰.۹۹۹, a Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) equal to ۰.۱۱۵%, a Mean Relative Error (MRE) of -۰.۰۵%, and a Mean Absolute Relative Error (MARE) of ۰.۷۶%. Comparing the obtained results with the field investigation shows that the suggested ANN model performed well.

COI مخفف عبارت CIVILICA Object Identifier به معنی شناسه سیویلیکا برای اسناد است. COI کدی است که مطابق محل انتشار، به مقالات کنفرانسها و ژورنالهای داخل کشور به هنگام نمایه سازی بر روی پایگاه استنادی سیویلیکا اختصاص می یابد.

کد COI به مفهوم کد ملی اسناد نمایه شده در سیویلیکا است و کدی یکتا و ثابت است و به همین دلیل همواره قابلیت استناد و پیگیری دارد.
