In this study, to predict the surface roughness of stainless steel-304 in Magneto rheological Abrasive flow finishing (MRAFF) process, an artificial neural network (ANN) and regression models have been developed. In this models, the parameters such as hydraulic pressure, current to the electromagnet and number of cycles were taken as variables of the model.Taguchi’s technique has been used for designing the experiments in order to observe the different values of surface roughness . A neural network with feed forward with the help of back propagation was made up of 27 input neurons, 7 hidden neurons and one output neuron. The 6 sets of experiments were randomly selected from orthogonal array for training and residuals were used to analyze the performance. To check the validity of regression model and to determine the significant parameter affecting the surface roughness, Analysis of variance (ANOVA) andF-test were made. The numerical analysis depict that the current to the electromagnet was an paramount parameter on surface roughness.Key words: MRAFF, ANN, Regression analysis

A methodology is presented to optimize the performance of an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) using Design of Experiments (DOE). 8 different feed forward back propagation (FFBP) ANNs were developed and tested according to the L8 full factorial orthogonal array. The 3 parameters tested were: Number of Hidden Neurons, Learning rate, and Momentum; each one having two levels. By utilizing the analysis of means (ANOM) and the analysis of variances (ANOVA), the optimum levels of ANN parameters were determined. The developed ANN was applied for predicting cutting forces and average surface roughness in turning Ti-6Al-4V alloy.

In this study, three artificial neural network (ANN) models are developed with back propagation (BP) optimization algorithms to predict various lightning damage modes in carbon/epoxy laminates. The proposed ANN models use three input variables associated with lightning waveform parameters (i.e., the peak current amplitude, rising time, and decaying time) to predict fiber damage, matrix damage, and through-thickness damage in the composites. The data used for training and testing the networks was actual lightning damage data collected from peer-reviewed published literature. Various BP training algorithms and network architecture configurations (i.e., data splitting, the number of neurons in a hidden layer, and the number of hidden layers) have been tested to improve the performance of the neural networks. Among the various BP algorithms considered, the Bayesian regularization back propagation (BRBP) showed the overall best performance in lightning damage prediction. When using the BRBP algorithm, as expected, the greater the fraction of the collected data that is allocated to the training dataset, the better the network is trained. In addition, the optimal ANN architecture was found to have a single hidden layer with 20 neurons. The ANN models proposed in this work may prove useful in preliminary assessments of lightning damage and reduce the number of expensive experimental lightning tests.

Tribotesting is necessary to understand the behaviour of the material under various operating lubrication conditions. This paper deals with the training of an artificial neural network (ANN) model with Bio-lubricant properties and machining conditions for prediction of surface roughness and coefficient of friction in Tribotesting by Tool chip Tribometer. Experimental results obtained from Tool chip tribometer for tested bio-lubricants are compared with those obtained by ANN prediction. A good agreement in results recommends that a well trained neural network is competent enough to predict the parameters in Tribotesting process.

Normal and impaired pure tone thresholds (PTTs) were predicted from distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DP using a feed-forward artificial neural network (ANN) with a back-propagation training algorithm. The ANN used a present and absent DPOAEs from eight DP grams, (2fl -f2 = 406 - 4031 Hz) to predict PTTs at 0.5, 1, 2 and 4 kHz. With normal hearing as < 25 dB HL, prediction accuracy of normal hearing was 94% at 500, 88% at 1000, 88% at 2000 and 93% at 4000 Hz. Prediction of hearing-impaired categories was less accurate, due to insufficient data for the ANN to train on. This research indicates the possibility of accurately predicting hearing ability within 10 dB in normal hearing individuals and in hearing-impaired listeners with DPOAEs and ANNsfrom 500 - 4000 Hz.

This paper discusses development and application of a decomposition neural network rule extraction algorithm for nonlinear regression problems. The algorithm is called the piece-wise linear artificial neural network or PWL-ANN algorithm. The objective of the algorithm is to “open up” the black box of a neural network model so that rules in the form of linear equations are generated by approximating the sigmoid activation functions of the hidden neurons in an artificial neural network (ANN). The preliminary results showed that the algorithm gives high fidelity and satisfactory results on sixteen of the nineteen tested datasets. By analyzing the values of R2 given by the PWL approximation on the hidden neurons and the overall output, it is evident that in addition to accurate approximation of each individual node of a given ANN model, there are more factors affecting the fidelity of the PWL-ANN algorithm Nevertheless, the algorithm shows promising potential for domains when better understanding about the problem is needed.

At present, skin cancers are extremely the most severe and life-threatening kind of cancer. The majority of the pores and skin cancers are completely remediable at premature periods. Therefore, a premature recognition of pores and skin cancer can effectively protect the patients. Due to the progress of modern technology, premature recognition is very easy to identify. It is not extremely complicated to discover the affected pores and skin cancers with the exploitation of Artificial Neural Network (ANN). The treatment procedure exploits image processing strategies and Artificial Intelligence. It must be noted that, the dermoscopy photograph of pores and skin cancer is effectively determined and it is processed to several pre-processing for the purpose of noise eradication and enrichment in image quality. Subsequently, the photograph is distributed through image segmentation by means of thresholding. Few components distinctive for skin most cancers regions. These features are mined the practice of function extraction scheme - 2D Wavelet Transform scheme. These outcomes are provides to the Back-Propagation Neural (BPN) Network for effective classification. This completely categorizes the data set into either cancerous or non-cancerous.

Machining of hardened steel at high cutting speeds produces high temperatures in the cutting zone, which affects the surface quality and cutting tool life. Thus, predicting the temperature in early stage becomes utmost importance. This research presents a neural network model for predicting the cutting temperature in the CNC end milling process. The Artificial Neural Network (ANN) was applied as an effective tool for modeling and predicting the cutting temperature. A set of sparse experimental data for finish end milling on AISI H13 at hardness of 48 HRC have been conducted to measure the cutting temperature. The artificial neural network (ANN) was applied to predict the cutting temperature. Twenty hidden layer has been used with feed forward back propagation hierarchical neural networks were designed with Matlab2009b Neural Network Toolbox. The results show a high correlation between the predicted and the observed temperature which indicates the validity of the models.
