Abstract:
An initial forecast model of BP neural networks is established, and is trained using the history data of our hospital inventory. This model is applied to forecasting the demand of medical equipment in Daping Hospital. The result indicates that the inventory cost is reduced enormously. The model is useful in the purchase and inventory management of medical equipment.
