This method is based on the difference concentration of Pb II and Cd II with 4- 2-pyridylazo -resorcinol PAR . A feed forward neural network using back-propagation BP algorithm has been employed in this study. The input layer consists of seven neurons six neurons of hidden layer and two output neurons was found appropriate for the simultaneous determination of Pb II and Cd II . The network was trained up to 20 epochs with learning rate. This reagent also provided good analytical performance with reproducibility characters of the method yield relative standard deviation RSD of and for Pb II and Cd II respectively. The limit of detection of the method for Pb II and Cd II was calculated to be and mg l respectively. Keywords Pb II Cd II simultaneous determination artificial neural networks spectrophotometry PAR 1. INTRODUCTION More recently the application of artificial intelligence or expert systems in analytical chemistry and chemical engineering has emerged rapidly. ANN is a computing system made up of a number of simple and highly interconnected processing elements which processes information by its dynamic state response to external Pb II and Cd II are metals that appear together in many real samples. Several techniques such as flame atomic absorption 2 voltammetric3 and spectrophotometric4 5 methods have been used for the determination of these ions in different samples. Among this uv-visible .
