Popis A use of artificial neural networks (ANN) and various experimental designs (ED) for refinement of experimental data obtained in a polarographic metal-ligand equilibrium study of fully dynamic (labile) metal complexes was thoroughly examined. ANN were tested on evenly and randomly distributed experimental error-free and error-corrupted data. It was found that randomly distributed experimental data did not influence the prediction power of ANN. Numerous tests demonstrated that ANN with appropriate ED can provide accurate prediction in the stability constants with the absolute errors in the range of +- 0.05 log unit or smaller. ANNs were found exceptionally robust. Random experimental errors have not influence estimates in stability constants much even when errors in pH up to the value of +- 0.1 pH unit were introduced. A special procedure has been worked out that allows to minimise the influence of error-corrupted data even further; no significant difference was observed between results obtained on error-free and error-corrupted data. This procedure makes also possible to obtain a standard deviation in the calculated stability constants that is usually a difficult task when ANNs are used. The results obtained from ANN were compared with those obtained from a hard model based non-linear regression techniques. No significant difference in evaluated data from these two, soft and hard model based approaches, was found. The use of ANN described here for polarographic data is of general nature and, in principal, can be adopted to other analytical techniques commonly used in metal-ligand equilibrium studies.
