The paper presents a novel quantum neural network (QNN) model with variable selection for short term load forecasting. In the proposed QNN model, first, the combiniation of maximum conditonal entropy theory and principal component analysis method is used to select main influential factors with maximum correlation degree to power load index, thus getting effective input variables set. Then the quantum neural network forecating model is constructed. The proposed QNN forecastig model is tested for certain province load data. The experiments and the performance with QNN neural network model are given, and the results showed the method could provide a satisfactory improvement of the forecasting accuracy compared with traditional BP network model.

This article evaluates the effect of the motivation of employees on organizational performance using a neural network. Studies show that employee motivation influences organizational performance, particularly in organizations providing services. Methods based on statistical computations like regression and correlation analysis were used to measure the mutual effects of these factors. As these statistical methods necessitate the fulfillment of certain requirements like normally distributed data and because they are not able to express non-linear relations and hidden complicated patterns, a back propagation neural network has been used. The neural network was trained by using data from 300 questionnaires answered by hospital employees and 1933 patients hospitalized in a private hospital in Tehran over three successive months.
