How deals with discrete data for the reduction of simulation models using neural network

Abstract: Simulation is useful for the evaluation of a Master Production/distribution Schedule (MPS). Also, the goal of this paper is the study of the design of a simulation model by reducing its complexity. According to theory of constraints, we want to build reduced models composed exclusively by bottlenecks and a neural network. Particularly a multilayer perceptron, is used. The structure of the network is determined by using a pruning procedure. This work focuses on the impact of discrete data on the results and com… Show more

“…According to the experimental design approach, we can classify these variables into 2 types of factors: internal ones (load factor, number of passes, time per table, liter per table, basis weight, number of layers, number of products and drying time) and external ones (temperature, humidity, pressure). 2 factors (passes number and number of layers) are discrete ones that can each take 3 states and that are binarized (Thomas and Thomas 2009).…”

“…The main advantage of this approach is that only one neural network models the entire system. However, this model includes more inputs and hidden neurons and so the computational times increase during the learning and exploitation steps [23]. These two approaches are not paradoxical.…”
