Abstract The influence of various drying characteristics in the experiment was explored in this study. The drying time and moisture content were used to evaluate the experimental outcomes. The drying of bitter gourd slices using a halogen dryer was done at varied thicknesses (3, 5, and 7 mm) and temperatures (60 °C, 65 °C and 70 °C). The results revealed that the drying time and equilibrium moisture content are considerably affected by the material drying thickness and drying temperature. Furthermore, the Generalized Regression Neural Network (GRNN) model is employed in this study to train and predict the moisture content of bitter gourd as an output parameter. The temperature, bitter gourd thickness, and drying time were considered as input parameters for the GRNN model. Three statistic measures as the R-square, the Root mean square error (RMSE) and the Mean relative percent error (P) were used to validate the accuracy of the trained GRNN model. In training with nine experimental condition datasets, the average score values of R-square, RMSE and P were obtained at 0.995197, 1.498966 and 0.091617, respectively. The test of trained GRNN has been conducted with good agreement between experimental data points and predicted points. The result revealed that GRNN was effective in predicting the moisture content of bitter gourd in a halogen dryer.
