Neural networks are trained to evaluate the risk of plasma disruptions in a tokamak experiment using several diagnostic signals as inputs. A saliency analysis confirms the goodness of the chosen inputs, all of which contribute to the network performance. Tests that were carried out refer to data collected from succesfully terminated and disruption terminated pulses performed during two years of JET tokamak experiments. Results show the possibility of developing a neural network predictor that intervenes well in advance in order to avoid plasma disruption or mitigate its effects.

Abstract
Neural networks are trained to evaluate the risk of plasma disruptions in a tokamak experiment using several diagnostic signals as inputs. A saliency analysis confirms the goodness of the chosen inputs, all of which contribute to the network performance. Tests that were carried out refer to data collected from succesfully terminated and disruption terminated pulses performed during two years of JET tokamak experiments. Results show the possibility of developing a neural network predictor that intervenes well in advance in order to avoid plasma disruption or mitigate its effects.
