文摘

Multi-layer perceptron artificial neural networks (MLP-ANNs) were used to predict the concentration of digoxin needed to obtain a cardio-activity of specific biophysical parameters in Tivela stultorum hearts. The inputs of the neural networks were the minimum and maximum values of heart contraction force, the time of ventricular filling, the volume used for dilution, heart rate and weight, volume, length and width of the heart, while the output was the digoxin concentration in dilution necessary to obtain a desired physiological response. ANNs were trained, validated and tested with the dataset of the in vivo experiment results. To select the optimal network, predictions for all the dataset for each configuration of ANNs were made, a maximum 5% relative error for the digoxin concentration was set and the diagnostic accuracy of the predictions made was evaluated. The double-layer perceptron had a barely higher performance than the single-layer perceptron; therefore, both had a good predictive ability. The double-layer perceptron was able to obtain the most accurate predictions of digoxin concentration required in the hearts of T. stultorum using MLP-ANNs.
