Automated construction of generalized additive neural networks for predictive data mining
(North-West University, 2006)In this thesis Generalized Additive Neural Networks (GANNs) are studied in the context of predictive Data Mining. A GANN is a novel neural network implementation of a Generalized Additive Model. Originally GANNs were ... -
Comparing generalised additive neural networks with decision trees and alternating conditional expectations
(North-West University, 2008)In this dissertation generalised additive neural networks (GANNs), decision trees and alternating conditional expectations (ACE) are studied and compared as computerised techniques in the field of predictive data mining. ... -
A multi-wavelength study of a sample of galaxy clusters
(North-West University, 2012)In this dissertation we aim to perform a multi-wavelength analysis of galaxy clusters. We discuss various methods for clustering in order to determine physical parameters of galaxy clusters required for this type of study. ... -
Physico-chemical and microbiological data of the Mooi River : a historical perspective
(North-West University (South Africa), 2019)Increased urbanisation and anthropogenic disturbances have caused water quality of many freshwater systems to deteriorate over the years in South Africa. This is due to domestic, industrial, and agricultural waste being ...
