In particular, ?-decay of SHEs has a great importance because most synthesized SHE have a-decay and the experimentalists have evaluated the theoretical predictions of the a-decay half-life during the experimental design. Because of this, the correct prediction of ?-decay half-life is important to investigate superheavy nuclei as well as heavy nuclei. In this work, artificial neural networks (ANN) have been employed on experimental a-decay half-lives of superheavy nuclei. Statistical modeling of a-decay half-life of superheavy nuclei have been found as to be successful.enArticle10.1088/1742-6596/490/1/0121052-s2.0-84897007557WOS:000335909300103
