ARTIFICIAL NEURAL-NETWORK FOR IDENTIFICATION OF A SUBSTANCE FROM A MOSSBAUER DATA-BANK

Mossbauer data and references of the minerals reported in the literature have been stored in a computer. Artificial neutral networks (ANN) were taught with the average values of experimental data of isomer shift quadrupole splitting of known mineral systems (sulphate, sulphide and sulphites, and silicates). Artificial neural networks successfully identified the unknown substance when fed with the new values of isomer shift and quadrupole splitting.
