Abstract

This work presents a study for density prediction of petroleum and derivatives for products’ monitoring application. The approach is based on pulse height distributions pattern recognition by means of artificial neural network (ANN). Theoretical models for different materials have been developed using MCNP-X code, which was also used to provide training, test and validation data for the ANN.
