Sensitivity analysis to reduce duplicated features in ANN training for district heat demand prediction

Artificial neural network (ANN) has become an important method to model the nonlinear relationships between weather conditions, building characteristics and its heat demand. Due to the large amount of training data required for ANN training, data reduction and feature selection are important to simp...
