The Application of Artificial Neural Networks in the Problems of Mathe matical Simulation Modeling of Systems
The aim of the study is to consider the possibility of using artificial neural networks (ANN) as an independent tool in problems of simulation modeling (SM) systems. The task is to develop an approach to the functional modeling of systems using the ANN with the ability to adapt to changing environmental conditions. The hypothe sis of the study is that ANNs can be successfully applied in functional and SM systems with the ability to adapt to changing environmental conditions, due to the peculiarities of ANN functioning. The research method selected a comparative analysis of the meaning of structural elements, signals supplied to the simulated system, as well as the conditions for constructing such systems within the framework of each considered methodology: ANN, functional modeling IDEF0 and SM. As a result, the possibility of using the ANN approach in functional and SM systems problems is shown.
