Application of the method of neural networks to solution of the inverse problem of heat transfer

The possibility of application of the method of neural networks to solution of inverse problems is considered using a coefficient inverse problem of heat transfer as an example. A method of fitting a neural network is suggested. The errors of recovery of sought parameters as functions of the properties of the medium and the number of neurons in the internal layer are investigated. The results of recovery of parameters are compared with the results obtained by the fitting method.
