Abstract :
Variable selection is a very vital step of models making and prediction researching. In order to solve the problem of variable selection in complicated system, statistical and neural network theory are combined to propose a method of scatter determine quotiety based on Sigmoid-Linear BP neural network in this paper. The efficiency of this method is also proved by simulation studies.
