This paper presents the Two-Phase Neural Network(TPNN) to slove the Optimal Economic Environmental Dispatch problem of thermal generating units in electric power system. The TPNN, Compared with other Neural Networks, is very accurate and it takes smaller computer time for a optimization problem to converge. In this work, in order to provide useful information to the system operator, we are used the total environmental weight and relative weighting of individual insults(e.g., $SO_2$, $NO_X$ and $CO_2$) also, presented the simulation results of the dispatch changes according to the weights. The Two-Phase Neural Network is tested on a 11-unit 3-pollutant system to prove of effectiveness and applicability.

Evolutionary design related to the optimal design of Polynomial Neural Networks (PNNs) structure for model identification of complex and nonlinear system is studied in this paper. The PNN structure is consisted of layers and nodes like conventional neural networks but is not fixed and can be changable according to the system environments. three types of polynomials such as linear, quadratic, and modified quadratic is used in each node that is connected with various kinds of multi-variable inputs. Inputs and order of polynomials in each node are very important element for the performance of model. In most cases these factors are decided by the background information and trial and error of designer. For the high reliability and good performance of the PNN, the factors must be decided according to a logical and systematic way. In the paper evolutionary algorithm is applied to choose the optimal input variables and order. Evolutionary (genetic) algorithm is a random search optimization technique. The evolved PNN with optimally chosen input variables and order is not fixed in advance but becomes fully optimized automatically during the identification process. Gas furnace and pH neutralization processes are used in conventional PNN version are modeled. It shows that the designed PNN architecture with evolutionary structure optimization can produce the model with higher accuracy than previous PNN and other works.

In this paper, we propose a new architecture of Self-Organizing Fuzzy Polynomial Neural Networks (SOFPNN) that is based on a genetically optimized multilayer perceptron with fuzzy polynomial neurons (FPNs) and discuss its comprehensive design methodology involving mechanisms of genetic optimization, especially genetic algorithms (GAs). The proposed SOFPNN gives rise to a structurally optimized structure and comes with a substantial level of flexibility in comparison to the one we encounter in conventional SOFPNNs. The design procedure applied in the construction of each layer of a SOFPNN deals with its structural optimization involving the selection of preferred nodes (or FPNs) with specific local characteristics (such as the number of input variables, the order of the polynomial of the consequent part of fuzzy rules, and a collection of the specific subset of input variables) and addresses specific aspects of parametric optimization. Through the consecutive process of such structural and parametric optimization, an optimized and flexible fuzzy neural network is generated in a dynamic fashion. To evaluate the performance of the genetically optimized SOFPNN, the model is experimented with using two time series data(gas furnace and chaotic time series), A comparative analysis reveals that the proposed SOFPNN exhibits higher accuracy and superb predictive capability in comparison to some previous models available in the literatures.

Prediction of process parameters is very important in parameter design. If predictions are fairly accurate, the quality improvement process will be useful to save time and reduce cost. The concept of dual response approach based on response surface methodology has widely been investigated. Dual response approach may take advantages of optimization modeling for finding optimum setting of input factor by separately modeling mean and variance responses. This study proposes an alternative dual response approach based on machine learning techniques instead of statistical analysis tools. A hybrid neural network-genetic algorithm has been proposed for the purpose of parameter design. A neural network is first constructed to model the relationship between responses and input factors. Mean and variance responses correspond to output nodes while input factors are used for input nodes. Using empirical process data, process parameters can be predicted without performing real experimentations. A genetic algorithm is then applied to find the optimum settings of input factors, where the neural network is used to evaluate the mean and variance response. A drug formulation example from pharmaceutical industry has been studied to demonstrate the procedures and applicability of the proposed approach.

Experiment on a lab-scale pH process is carried out to evaluate the control performance of the neural linearizing control scheme(NLCS) using a radial basis function(RBF) network which was previously proposed by Kim and Park. NLCS was developed to overcome the difficulties of the conventional neural controllers which occur when they are applied to chemical processes. Since NLCS is applicable for the processes which are already controlled by a linear controller and of which the past operating data are enough, we first control the pH process with PI controller. Using the operating data with PI controller, the linear reference model is determined by optimization. Then, a IMC controller replaces the PI controller as a feedback controller. NLCS consists of the IMC controller and a RBF network. After the learning of the neural network is fully achieved, the dynamics of the process combined with the neural network becomes linear and close to that of the linear reference model and the control performance of the linear control improves. During the training, NLCS maintains the stability and the control performance of the closed loop system. Experimental results show that the NLCS performs better than PI controller and IMC for both the servo and the regulator problems.

The training and prediction modeling using an artificial neural network was implemented to predict the turbidity of treated water as well as to estimate the optimized feed concentration of polyaluminium chloride (PACl) in a water treatment plant. The parameters used in the input layers were pH, temperature, turbidity and alkalinity, while those in output layers were PACl and turbidity of treated water. Levenberg-Marquadt method of feedforward back-propagation perceptron in the neural network toolbox of MATLAB program was used in this study. Correlation coefficients of the training data with the measured data were 0.9997 for PACl and 0.6850 for turbidity and those of the testing data with measured data were 0.9140 for PACl and 0.3828 for turbidity, when four parameters at input layer, 12-12 nodes each at both the first and the second hidden layers, and two parameters(PACl and turbidity) at output layer were used. Although the predictability of PACl was improved, compared to that of the previous studies to use the only coagulant dose as output layer, turbidity in treated water could not be predicted well. Acquisition of more data through several years obtained with the advanced on-line measuring system could make the artificial neural network useful and practical in actual water treatment plants.

In most machining companies, operators decide the cutting condition, a pair of spindle speed (5) and table federate (F) by experience and subjective judgment. As cutting conditions are determined by operators' experience and ability, inconsistent cutting conditions are given in same operating conditions. The objective of this study is to develop the cutting condition decision system which utilizes shop data and predicts tool life by neural network and eventually leads to the optimal cutting condition. The production time per piece is considered for an optimization object. We will discuss the process of an optimal cutting condition decision by neural network. By this process, a series of shop data is stored. And neural network is constructed for prediction of tool life and the optimal cutting condition is recommended from a cutting condition decision system using the stored shop data. The results show that the developed system is rational in searching the optimal cutting conditions on job operations.

This paper presents a comparative study between the parameter-optimized Pacejka model and artificial neural network model for the tire force estimation. The two different approaches are investigated and compared in this study. First, offline optimization is conducted based on Pacejka Magic Formula model to determine the proper parameter set for the minimization of tire force error between the model and test data set. Second, deep neural network model is used to fit the model to the tire test data set. The actual tire forces are measured using MTS Flat-Track test platform and the measurements are used as the reference tire data set. The focus of this study is on the applicability of machine learning technique to tire force estimation. It is shown via the regression results that the deep neural network model is more effective in describing the tire force than the parameter-optimized Pacejka model.

The prediction and achievement of a proper rock fragmentation size is the main challenge of blasting operations in surface mines. This is because an optimum size distribution can optimize the overall mine/plant economics. To this end, this study attempts to develop four improved artificial intelligence models to predict rock fragmentation through cascaded forward neural network (CFNN) and radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) models. In this regards, the CFNN was trained by the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm (LMA) and Conjugate gradient backpropagation (CGP). Further, the RBFNN was optimized by the Dragonfly Algorithm (DA) and teaching-learning-based optimization (TLBO). For developing the models, the database required was collected from the Midouk copper mine, Iran. After modeling, the statistical functions were computed to check the accuracy of the models, and the root mean square errors (RMSEs) of CFNN-LMA, CFNN-CGP, RBFNN-DA, and RBFNN-TLBO were obtained as 1.0656, 1.9698, 2.2235, and 1.6216, respectively. Accordingly, CFNN-LMA, with the lowest RMSE, was determined as the model with the best prediction results among the four examined in this study.
