SIMULATING THE NUMBER OF ROMANIAN`S PUPILS AND STUDENT USING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TECHNIQUES AND COUNTRY`S ECONOMIC ESTATE

The authors present the result of a research that uses artificial neural networks in order to simulate the number of Romanian`s pupils and students (PAS), considering the country`s economic situation. The objective is to determine a better method to forecast the Romanian`s PAS considering its nonlinear behaviour. Also the ANN simulation offers an image about how inputs influence the PAS. In conclusion, the use of the ANN is considered a success and the authors determine the possibility that ANN research application be extended to other countries or even to the European zone.
