The results of these extraction techniques are used to train the Artificial Neural Networks. In order to improve the accuracy of the results, the weights of ANNs are calculated using artificial bee colony estimation method. The results are compared with that obtained using NRW, Newton-Raphson, and genetic algorithm. The obtained results indicate that the proposed model gives good extracted parameters as compared with the previously published results.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessFree space measurementartificial bee colonydielectric constantNRW techniqueNewton-Raphson methodExtracting the dielectric constant of materials using ABC-based ANNs and NRW algorithmsArticle10.1080/09205071.2016.12152662-s2.0-84981272302179913Q3178530WOS:000382887600012Q4
