Development and Utilization of Integrated Artificial Expert Systems for Designing Multi-lateral Well Configurations, Estimating Reservoir Properties and Forecasting Reservoir Performance

ion and interpretation of sporadic data. 2.1.4 Typical ANN Architecture It is fundamental to the understanding of artificial neural networks to note that in a biological nervous system not all interconnections have the same influence. Some connections will have leverage over others and some will even work to prevent the passing of messages. This is due to the variances in chemistry and by the presence of chemical source and controlling matter inside or surrounding the neurons, the axons and in the synaptic connections (Graupe,
