Artificial Neural Network: A tool for Rapid Quantitative Elemental Analysis Using Neutron Activation Analysis

M.E. M edhat

An artificial neural network (ANN) has been trained with real-sample NAA (neutron activation analysis) spectra of irradiated materials. Following the training stage ANN was applied to a subset of similar samples thus obtaining the elemental concentrations by NAA method. Results obtained with the ANN method are in good agreement with results obtained from NAA techniques, showing the high potentiality of ANN in NAA quantitative analyses.
