Artificial neural networks have a wide use in the prediction and classification of different variables, but their application in the area of educational psychology is still relatively rare. The aim of this study was to examine the accuracy of artificial neural networks in predicting students’ general giftedness. The participants were 221 fourth grade students from one Croatian elementary school. The input variables for artificial neural networks were teachers’ and peers’ nominations, school grades, earlier school readiness assessment and parents’ education. The output variable was the result on the Standard Progressive Matrices (Raven, 1994), according to which students were classified as gifted or non-gifted. We tested two artificial neural networks’ algorithms: multilayer perceptron and radial basis function. Within each algorithm, a number of different types of activation functions were tested. 80% of the sample was used for training the network and the remaining 20% to test the network. For a criterion according to which students were classified as gifted if their result on the Standard Progressive Matrices was in the 95th centile or above, the best model was obtained by the hyperbolic tangent multilayer perceptron, which had a high accuracy of 100% of correctly classified non-gifted students and 75% correctly classified gifted students in the test sample. When the criterion was the 90th centile or above, the best model was also obtained by the hyperbolic tangent multilayer perceptron, but the accuracy was lower: 94.7% in the classification of non-gifted students and 66.7% in the classification of gifted students. The study has shown artificial neural networks’ potential in this area, which should be further explored. Keywords: gifted students, identification of gifted students, artificial neural networks

Combination of geostatistical interpolation (kriging) and machine learning (artificial neural networks, ANN) methods leads to an increase in the accuracy of forecasting. The paper considers the application of residual kriging of an artificial neural network to predicting the spatial contamination of the surface soil layer with chromium (Cr). We reviewed and compared two neural networks: the generalized regression neural network (GRNN) and multilayer perceptron (MLP), as well as the combined method: multilayer perceptron residual kriging (MLPRK). The study is based on the results of the screening of the surface soil layer in the subarctic Noyabrsk, Russia. The models are developed based on computer modeling with minimization of the RMSE. The MLPRK model showed the best prognostic accuracy.

A estimativa da concentração do ozônio de superfície propicia a geração de dados para o planejamento de previsão da qualidade do ar, útil na gestão de saúde publica. O objetivo deste trabalho foi elaborar uma Rede Neural Artificial (RNAs) para estimar a concentração do ozônio de superfície em função de dados diários de clima. A RNA, do tipo FeedForward Multilayer Perceptron, foi treinada tomando-se por referência da concentração diária do ozônio medida. Nas camadas intermediárias e de saída foram utilizadas funções de ativação do tipo tan-sigmóide e lineares, respectivamente. O desempenho da RNA desenvolvida foi muito bom, podendo-se considerá-la como integrante do conjunto de métodos indiretos para estimativa da concentração do ozônio de superfície. O modelo proposto pode ser utilizado pelo governo público como ferramenta para ativar ações de ferramentas durante os períodos de estagnação atmosférica, quando os níveis de ozônio na atmosfera possam representar riscos à saúde publica.
