Article Citation - WoS: 77Citation - Scopus: 101An Intelligent Process Planning System for Prismatic Parts Using Step Features(Springer London Ltd, 2007) Amaitik, Saleh M.; Kilic, S. EnginThis paper presents an intelligent process planning system using STEP features (ST-FeatCAPP) for prismatic parts. The system maps a STEP AP224 XML data file, without using a complex feature recognition process, and produces the corresponding machining operations to generate the process plan and corresponding STEP-NC in XML format. It carries out several stages of process planning such as operations selection, tool selection, machining parameters determination, machine tools selection and setup planning. A hybrid approach of most recent techniques ( neural networks, fuzzy logic and rule-based) of artificial intelligence is used as the inference engine of the developed system. An object-oriented approach is used in the definition and implementation of the system. An example part is tested and the corresponding process plan is presented to demonstrate and verify the proposed CAPP system. The paper thus suggests a new feature-based intelligent CAPP system for avoiding complex feature recognition and knowledge acquisition problems.Article Citation - WoS: 42Citation - Scopus: 47A Novel Global Robust Stability Criterion for Neural Networks With Delay(Elsevier Science Bv, 2005) Singh, VA criterion based on the intervalised network parameters for the global robust stability of Hopfield-type neural networks with delay is presented.

Water resources engineering always deals with historical data and tries to estimate the forecasting records in order to give a better prediction for any water resources applications, such as designing the water potential of hydroelectric dams, estimating low flow, and maintaining the water supply. This paper presents three soft-computing approaches for dealing with these issues, i.e. artificial neural networks (ANNs), adaptive-neuro-fuzzy inference systems (ANFISs), and support vector machines (SVMs). Telom River, located in the Cameron Highlands district of Pahang, Malaysia, was used in making the estimation. The Telom River's daily mean discharge records, such as rainfall and river-level data, were used for the period of March 1984-January 2013 for training, testing, and validating the selected models. The SVM approach provided better results than ANFIS and ANNs in estimating the daily mean fluctuation of the stream's flow.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Discrete Time Neuro Sliding Mode Control With a Task-Specific Output Error(Springer, 2004) Efe, MO; Department of Electrical & Electronics EngineeringThe problem of obtaining the error at the output of a neuro sliding mode controller is analyzed in this paper. The controller operates in discrete time and the method presented describes an error measure that can be used if the task to be achieved is to drive the system under control to a predefined sliding regime. Once the task-specific output error is calculated, the neurocontroller parameters can be tuned so that the task is achieved. The paper postulates the strategy for discrete time representation of uncertain nonlinear systems belonging to a particular class. The performance of the proposed technique has been clarified on a third order nonlinear system, and the parameters of the controller are adjusted by using the error backpropagation algorithm. It is observed that the prescribed behavior can be achieved with a simple network configuration.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5A Study on the Performance of Magnetic Material Identification System by Sift-Brisk and Neural Network Methods(Ieee-inst Electrical Electronics Engineers inc, 2015) Ege, Yavuz; Nazlibilek, Sedat; Kakilli, Adnan; Citak, Hakan; Kalender, Osman; Karacor, Deniz; Sengul, GokhanIndustry requires low-cost, low-power consumption, and autonomous remote sensing systems for detecting and identifying magnetic materials. Magnetic anomaly detection is one of the methods that meet these requirements. This paper aims to detect and identify magnetic materials by the use of magnetic anomalies of the Earth's magnetic field created by some buried materials. A new measurement system that can determine the images of the upper surfaces of buried magnetic materials is developed. The system consists of a platform whose position is automatically controlled in x-axis and y-axis and a KMZ51 anisotropic magneto-resistive sensor assembly with 24 sensors mounted on the platform. A new identification system based on scale-invariant feature transform (SIFT)-binary robust invariant scalable keypoints (BRISKs) as keypoint and descriptor, respectively, is developed for identification by matching the similar images of magnetic anomalies. The results are compared by the conventional principal component analysis and neural net algorithms. On the six selected samples and the combinations of these samples, 100% correct classification rates were obtained.Letter Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Global Robust Stability of Interval Delayed Neural Networks: Modified Approach(Wiley, 2009) Singh, VimalA criterion for the global robust stability of Hopfield-type delayed neural networks with the intervalized network parameters is presented. The criterion, which is derived by utilizing the idea of splitting the given interval into two intervals, is in the form of linear matrix inequality and, hence, computationally tractable. The criterion yields a less conservative condition compared with many recently reported criteria, as is demonstrated with an example.

The Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm was adopted during training. Pre-processing before training and post processing after simulation steps were the treatments applied to raw data and predictions respectively. Generalisation was improved and over-fitting problems were eliminated: Early stopping method was applied for improving generalisation. The correlation coefficients between neural network estimates and field measurements were as high as 0.98 for two of the reservoirs with experiments that involve double layer neural network structure with 30 neurons within each hidden layer. A simple one layer neural network structure with 11 neurons has yielded comparable and satisfactorily high correlation coefficients for complete data set, and training, validation and test sets of the third reservoir.Article Citation - WoS: 33Citation - Scopus: 56Smart irrigation system for environmental sustainability in Africa: An Internet of Everything (IoE) approach(Amer inst Mathematical Sciences-aims, 2019) Adenugba, Favour; Misra, Sanjay; Maskeliunas, Rytis; Damasevicius, Robertas; Kazanavicius, EgidijusWater and food are two of the most important commodities in the world, which makes agriculture crucial to mankind as it utilizes water (irrigation) to provide us with food. Climate change and a rapid increase in population have put a lot of pressure on agriculture which has a snowball effect on the earth's water resource, which has been proven to be crucial for sustainable development. The need to do away with fossil fuel in powering irrigation systems cannot be over emphasized due to climate change. Smart Irrigation systems powered by renewable energy sources (RES) have been proven to substantially improve crop yield and the profitability of agriculture. Here we show how the control and monitoring of a solar powered smart irrigation system can be achieved using sensors and environmental data from an Internet of Everything (IoE). The collected data is used to predict environment conditions using the Radial Basis Function Network (RBFN). The predicted values of water level, weather forecast, humidity, temperature and irrigation data are used to control the irrigation system. A web platform was developed for monitoring and controlling the system remotely.Article Citation - WoS: 18Citation - Scopus: 23Regarding Solid Oxide Fuel Cells Simulation Through Artificial Intelligence: a Neural Networks Application(Mdpi, 2019) Baldinelli, Arianna; Barelli, Linda; Bidini, Gianni; Bonucci, Fabio; Iskenderoglu, Feride CansuBecause of their fuel flexibility, Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs) are promising candidates to coach the energy transition. Yet, SOFC performance are markedly affected by fuel composition and operative parameters. In order to optimize SOFC operation and to provide a prompt regulation, reliable performance simulation tools are required. Given the high variability ascribed to the fuel in the wide range of SOFC applications and the high non-linearity of electrochemical systems, the implementation of artificial intelligence techniques, like Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), is sound. In this paper, several network architectures based on a feedforward-backpropagation algorithm are proposed and trained on experimental data-set issued from tests on commercial NiYSZ/8YSZ/LSCF anode supported planar button cells. The best simulator obtained is a 3-hidden layer ANN (25/22/18 neurons per layer, hyperbolic tangent sigmoid as transfer function, obtained with a gradient descent with adaptive learning rate backpropagation). This shows high accuracy (RMS = 0.67% in the testing phase) and successful application in the forecast of SOFC polarization behaviour in two additional experiments (RMS in the order of 3% is scored, yet it is reduced to about 2% if only the typical operating current density range of real application is considered, from 300 to 500 mA.cm(-2)). Therefore, the neural tool is suitable for system simulation codes/software whether SOFC operating parameters agree with the input ranges (anode feeding composition 0-48%(vol) H-2, 0-38%(vol) CO, 0-45%(vol) CH4, 9-32%(vol) CO2, 0-54%(vol) N-2, specific equivalent hydrogen flow-rate per unit cell active area 10.8-23.6 mL.min(-1).cm(-2), current density 0-1300 mA.cm(-2) and temperature 700-800 degrees C).Article Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 14Improved Global Robust Stability for Interval-Delayed Hopfield Neural Networks(Springer, 2008) Singh, VimalA modified form of a recent criterion for the global robust stability of interval-delayed Hopfield neural networks is presented. The effectiveness of the modified criterion is demonstrated with the help of an example.
