## Abstract A first‐principles mathematical model for emulsion polymerization was reduced by using a hybrid mathematical model composed by artificial neural networks (ANN) and material balances. The goal was to have an accurate model that may be integrated fast enough to be used for online optimiza

## Abstract **Summary:** A “series” hybrid model based on material balances and artificial neural networks to predict the evolution of weight average molecular weight, $\overline M \_{\rm w}$, in semicontinuous emulsion polymerization with long chain branching kinetics is presented. The core of the
A model that includes both ®rst principles dierential equations and an arti®cial neural network is used to forecast and control an environmental process. The inclusion of the ®rst principles knowledge in this hybrid model is shown to improve substantially the stability of the model predictions in sp
The study of brand choice decisions with multiple alternatives has been successfully modelled for more than a decade using the Multinomial Logit model. Recently, neural network modelling has received increasing attention and has been applied to an array of marketing problems such as market response
