“…For regression involving neural nets (NN) then sensitivity analysis can be used to rank the sensors. Useful measures of model accuracy can be derived for the out-of-sample test data set from the summary statistics such as mean error, mean-squared error, prediction risk, and R 2 ; however, prediction intervals can provide a guide on a point basis to the quality of the prediction across the sensor range and so will be given here also (Healy, Dixon, Read, & Cai, 2003a).…”
