Abstract With the development of manufacturing technology in recent years, as well as with the industrial product development, differentiation in the design aspect is becoming effective, not in terms of performance or quality. In addition, as consumers seek products that match their own sensibilities (KANSEI), designers are required to propose designs that highly conform to concept presented by client, while understanding the KANSEI of diversified consumers; therefore, their burden is increasing. To address these issues, the support of the development of computer-aided design has advanced; however, it is difficult to reflect human KANSEI or to generate a design that induces a natural impression through computers. The purpose of this research is to develop a system that incorporates the KANSEI of users, and emits a pattern design that induces a natural impression using a computer. This work is focused on crack patterns that can be observed on pottery surfaces, and a method for generating crack patterns on a cup surface is suggested. In this study, a Bézier curved surface and fluctuation were employed in order to induce a natural impression. In addition, by using the neural network, the crack patterns were associated with user KANSEI. The neural network was composed of three layers, namely the input layer, the hidden layer, and the output layer; it adopted the sigmoid function as the transition function and the back propagation as the learning method. As a result, a system was constructed, in which a crack pattern that satisfied the input produces an output according to the desired impression of the user. Finally, an evaluation questionnaire was distributed, and the usefulness of the system was confirmed. Highlights A method for creating crack patterns using a computer is proposed. The relationship between KANSEI and crack patterns is modeled by neural network. A system is developed that outputs crack patterns that satisfy the inputted KANSEI.

A new neural network called AUGURS is designed to assist a user of a Computer-Aided Design system in utilizing standard graphic symbols. With AUGURS, the CAD user can avoid searching for standard symbols in a large library and rely on AUGURS to automatically retrieve those symbols resembling the user’s drawing. More specifically, AUGURS inputs a bitmap image normalized with respect to location, size, and orientation, and outputs a list of standard symbols ranked by its assessment of the similarity between the symbol and the input image. Only the top ranked symbols are presented to the user for selection. AUGURS encodes geometric knowledge into its network structure and carefully balances its discriminant power and noise tolerance. The encoded knowledge enables AUGURS to learn reasonably well despite the limited number of training examples, the most serious challenge for the CAD domain. We have compared AUGURS with the Zipcode Net, a traditional layered feed-forward network with an unconstrained structure, and a network that inputs either Zernike or pseudo-Zernike moments. The experimental results conclude that AUGURS can achieve the best recognition performance among all networks being compared with reasonable recognition and learning efficiency.

In this work, a back propagation artificial neural network (BP-ANN) model is conducted to predict the flow behaviors of high-Nb TiAl (TNB) alloys during high temperature deformation. The inputs of the neural network are deformation temperature, log strain rate and strain whereas flow stress is the output. There is a single hidden layer with 7 neutrons in the network, and the weights and bias of the network were optimized by Genetic Algorithm (GA). The comparison result suggests a very good correlation between experimental and predicted data. Besides, the non-experimental flow stress predicted by the network is shown to be in good agreement with the results calculated by three dimensional interpolation, which confirmed a good generalization capability of the proposed network.

In this paper, the research topic is that the expert experience is established by the size of the measured signal strength of wireless sensor networks and put the strength of the actual collection of historical data into the neural network model. In order to get the minimize error we use the errors to modify the weights and threshold of the neural network links. We compare the differences of hidden layer neural network and the experimental results. We set up a wireless sensor networks environment to collect the measurement values of signal strength (RSSI) and develop an indoor positioning system.

This paper presents a study for the effect of learning rate on an approach for texture classification and detection based on the neural network principle. This neural network consists of three layers, which are input, output, and hidden layers. The back propagation technique is considered. A computer algorithm is deduced and applied. In this work, the synthetic textures are generated. The results are taken for the modern computer of AT 486 type. The mathematical analysis is summarized in order to illustrate the effect of learning rate parameter on the exact discrimination during processing. This effect is studied through applications. The minimum consumed time for the computational time of classification in industry is correlated to correspond only the use of only 2 units in the hidden layer of a neural network for real images instead of 11 units.

Рассматривается процедура выбора структуры и параметров нейронной сети для классификации набора данных, известного как Ирисы Фишера, который включает в себя данные о 150 экземплярах растений трех различных видов. Предложен подход к решению данной задачи без использования дополнительных программных средств и мощных нейросетевых пакетов с использованием только средств стандартного браузера ОС. Это потребовало реализации ряда процедур на JavaScript c их подгрузкой в разработанную интерфейсную HTML-страницу. Исследование большого числа различных структур многослойных нейронных сетей, обучаемых на основе алгоритма обратного распространения ошибки, позволило выбрать для тестового набора данных структуру нейронной сети всего с одним скрытым слоем из трех нейронов. Это существенно упрощает реализацию классификатора Ирисов Фишера, позволяя его оформить в виде загружаемой с сервера HTML-страницы. The procedure for selecting the structure and parameters of the neural network for the classification of a data set known as Iris Fisher, which includes data on 150 plant specimens of three different species, is considered. An approach to solving this problem without using additional software and powerful neural network packages using only the tools of the standard OS browser is proposed. This required the implementation of a number of JavaScript procedures with their loading into the developed HTML interface page. The study of a large number of different structures of multilayer neural networks, trained on the basis of the back-propagation error algorithm, made it possible to choose the structure of a neural network with only one hidden layer of three neurons for a test dataset. This greatly simplifies the implementation of the Fisher Iris classifier, allowing it to be formatted as an HTML page downloaded from the server.

Computer-aided design of assembly processes (Computer aided assembly planning, CAAP) of complex products is an important and urgent problem of state-of-the-art information technologies. Intensive research on CAAP has been underway since the 1980s. Meanwhile, specialized design systems were created to provide synthesis of assembly plans and product decompositions into assembly units. Such systems as ASPE, RAPID, XAP / 1, FLAPS, Archimedes, PRELEIDES, HAP, etc. can be given, as an example. These experimental developments did not get widespread use in industry, since they are based on the models of products with limited adequacy and require an expert’s active involvement in preparing initial information. The design tools for the state-of-the-art full-featured CAD/CAM systems (Siemens NX, Dassault CATIA and PTC Creo Elements / Pro), which are designed to provide CAAP, mainly take into account the geometric constraints that the design imposes on design solutions. These systems often synthesize technologically incorrect assembly sequences in which known technological heuristics are violated, for example orderliness in accuracy, consistency with the system of dimension chains, etc.An AssemBL software application package has been developed for a structured analysis of products and a synthesis of assembly plans and decompositions. The AssemBL uses a hyper-graph model of a product that correctly describes coherent and sequential assembly operations and processes. In terms of the hyper-graph model, an assembly operation is described as shrinkage of edge, an assembly plan is a sequence of shrinkages that converts a hyper-graph into the point, and a decomposition of product into assembly units is a hyper-graph partition into sub-graphs.The AssemBL solves the problem of minimizing the number of direct checks for geometric solvability when assembling complex products. This task is posed as a plus-sum two-person game of bicoloured brushing of an ordered set. In the paradigm of this model, the brushing operation is to check a certain structured fragment for solvability by collision detection methods. A rational brushing strategy minimizes the number of such checks.The package is integrated into the Siemens NX 10.0 computer-aided design system. This solution allowed us to combine specialized AssemBL tools with a developed toolkit of one of the most powerful and popular integrated CAD/CAM /CAE systems.

Fast steering mirrors (FSMs), driven by piezoelectric ceramics, are usually used as actuators for high-precision beam control. A FSM generally contains four ceramics that are distributed in a crisscross pattern. The cooperative movement of the two ceramics along one radial direction generates the deflection of the FSM in the same orientation. Unlike the hysteresis nonlinearity of a single piezoelectric ceramic, which is symmetric or asymmetric, the FSM exhibits complex hysteresis characteristics. In this paper, a systematic way of modeling the hysteresis nonlinearity of FSMs is proposed using a Madelung’s rules based symmetric hysteresis operator with a cascaded neural network. The hysteresis operator provides a basic hysteresis motion for the FSM. The neural network modifies the basic hysteresis motion to accurately describe the hysteresis nonlinearity of FSMs. The wiping-out and congruency properties of the proposed method are also analyzed. Moreover, the inverse hysteresis model is constructed to reduce the hysteresis nonlinearity of FSMs. The effectiveness of the presented model is validated by experimental results.
