The artificial neural net (ANN) technique has been studied as a tool for mo
del calculations and control of the industrial exhaust gas purification sys
tems employing the electron beam irradiation. As a simulator of multiparame
ter events from the installation, a simple analytical model was applied giv
ing a reasonably good agreement with experimental data available. Various l
earning strategies of the ANN have been tested. Advantage of the ANN techni
que over other methods is discussed.
