In order to reduce the complexity of the models and increase the knowledge and comprehension of the underlying process, a fuzzy sensitivity variation criterion is used to select the most relevant parameters which are taken as inputs of the reduced neural models. The model outputs are the water contact angle and the capillarity of woven fabrics, characterizing the change of fabric surfaces. The early stopping and Bayesian regularization techniques are used for improving the network’s generalization capability. Two different network configurations are studied. One deals with two networks having each one output layer neuron and another with a single network combining the two outputs. Obtained results showed that the first configuration combined with the Bayesian regularization approach is the most suitable to achieve a good prediction accuracy.
