Abstract (EN):
One of the newest targets of public health is management of obesity-hypertension. In this paper is presented
the use of an artificial neural network based model for objective classification of obesity-hypertension.
Different neural network architectures as part of hybrid processing scheme including comparators and
competitive processing blocks were developed and tested. The neural network functionality is the
classification of the individuals according to the obesity risks. The results show that the neural network
classifier is consistent with the standard criteria suggested by the obesity and hypertension guidelines.
