Artificial Intelligence and Mathematical Modelling of the Drying Kinetics of Pre-treated Whole Apricots

This study involved monitoring and modelling the drying kinetics of whole apricots pre-treated with solutions of sucrose, NaCl, and sodium bisulphite. The drying was performed in a microwave oven at different power levels (200, 400, and 800 W). Two artificial intelligence models were used for the pr...
