In the typical nonparametric approach to classification in instance-based learning and data
mining, random data (the training set of patterns) are collected and used to design a …

In several fields, as industrial modelling, multilayer feedforward neural networks are often
used as universal function approximations. These supervised neural networks are …

The current study shows how data mining and artificial intelligence techniques can be used
to introduce improvements in the rubber extrusion production process. One of the keys for …

The Generative Topographic Mapping (GTM) was originally conceived as a probabilistic
alternative to the well-known, neural network-inspired, Self-Organizing Maps. The GTM can …

In the industrial arena, artificial neural networks are among the most significant techniques
in system modelling because of their efficiency and simplicity. In this paper, we present an …

The mechanical properties of steel coils can be predicted prior to the galvanizing process,
thereby preventing the production of galvanized steel coils that are not suitable for the …

Public health in developed countries is heavily affected by pollution specially in highly
populated areas. Amongst the pollutants with greatest impact in health, ozone is particularly …

Non-rigid parts, in free-state, may have a considerable different shape than their nominal
model due to dimensional and geometric variations of manufacturing process, gravity loads …

In this day and age, galvanised coated steel is an essential product in several key
manufacturing sectors because of its anticorrosive properties. The increase in demand has …
