Magnetic materials are considered as crucial components for a wide range of products and devices. Usually, complexity of such materials is defined by their permeability classification and coupling extent to non-magnetic properties. Hence, development of models that could accurately simulate the complex nature of these materials becomes crucial to the multi-dimensional fieldmedia interactions and computations. In the past few decades, artificial neural networks (ANNs) have been utilized in many applications to perform miscellaneous tasks such as identification, approximation, optimization, classification and forecasting. The purpose of this review article is to give an account of the utilization of ANNs in modeling as well as field computation involving complex magnetic materials. Mostly used ANN types in magnetics, advantages of this usage, detailed implementation methodologies as well as numerical examples are given in the paper. | Utilizing neural networks in magnetic media modeling and field computation: A review
