ANN, one of the best efficient computational methods
broadly inspired by the organization of the human brain,
has presented good results where the other analytical
and statistical methods could not be effective. The most
important features of an ANN are its abilities to learn, associate,
and be error tolerant. ANN has become a powerful
tool for modeling a system that once had a little or incomplete
understanding of its governing laws [14]. Neural networks
can learn new patterns that are not previously
available in the trained data sets, and since they can update
knowledge over time as long as more training data
sets are provided [15], therefore it is expected that ANN
could simulate the fuel consumption of tractors using the
effective parameters
