Computer simulation is essential to design the suspension elements of railway vehicle. By computer simulation, engineers can assess the feasibility of given design variables and chance them to get a bettor design. Even though commercial simulation codes are used, the computational time and cost remains non-trivial. Therefore, malty researchers have used a mesa model made by sampling data through simulation. In this paper, four mesa-models for each index group such as ride comfort, derailment Quotient, unloading radio and stability index, are constructed by use of neural network. After these meta models are constructed, multi-objective optimization are achieved by using the differential evolution. This paper shows that the optimization of design variables using the neural network model is very efficient to solve the complex optimization Problem.

A neural optimization network and fuzzy rules are proposed to control the redundant robot manipulators in an environment with obstacle. A neural optimization network is employed to solve the optimization problem for resolved motion control of redundant robot manipulators in an environment with obstacle. The fuzzy rules are proposed to determine the weights of neural optimization networks to avoid the collision between robot manipulators and obstacle. The inputs of fuzzy rules are the resultant distance and change of the distance and sum of the changes by differential motion of each joint. And the output of fuzzy rules is defined as the capability of collision avoidance of joint differential motion. The weightings of neural optimization networks are adjusted according to the capability of collision aboidance of each joint. To show the validities of the proposed method, computer simulation results are illustrated for the redundant robot of the planar type with three degrees of freedom.

Deep learning has been used for various processing centered on image recognition. One core algorithms of the deep learning, convolutional neural network is an deep neural network that specialized in image recognition. In this paper, we use a convolutional neural network to classify forest insects and propose an optimization method. Experiments were carried out by combining two weight initialization and six parameter update methods. As a result, the Xavier-SGD method showed the highest performance with an accuracy of 82.53% in the 12 different combinations of experiments. Through this, the latest learning algorithms, which complement the disadvantages of the previous parameter update method, we conclude that it can not lead to higher performance than existing methods in all application environments.

We applied an artificial neural network (ANN) and evaluated surface roughness prediction in lateral milling using an endmill. The selected workpiece was AL6061-T4 to obtain data of surface roughness measurement based on the spindle speed, feed, and depth of cut. The Bayesian optimization algorithm was applied to the number of nodes and the learning rate of each hidden layer to optimize the neural network. Experimental results show that the neural network applied to optimize using the Expected Improvement(EI) algorithm showed the best performance. Additionally, the predicted values do not exactly match during the neural network evaluation; however, the predicted tendency does march. Moreover, it is found that the neural network can be used to predict the surface roughness in the milling of aluminum alloy.

Breast cancer screening makes extensive utilization of mammography. Even so, there has been a lot of debate with regards to this application's starting age as well as screening interval. The deep learning technique of transfer learning is employed for transferring the knowledge learnt from the source tasks to the target tasks. For the resolution of real-world problems, deep neural networks have demonstrated superior performance in comparison with the standard machine learning algorithms. The architecture of the deep neural networks has to be defined by taking into account the problem domain knowledge. Normally, this technique will consume a lot of time as well as computational resources. This work evaluated the efficacy of the deep learning neural network like Visual Geometry Group Network (VGG Net) Residual Network (Res Net), as well as inception network for classifying the mammograms. This work proposed optimization of ResNet with Teaching Learning Based Optimization (TLBO) algorithm's in order to predict breast cancers by means of mammogram images. The proposed TLBO-ResNet, an optimized ResNet with faster convergence ability when compared with other evolutionary methods for mammogram classification.

A fuzzy neural network model is presented to predict residual stress for dissimilar metal welding under various welding conditions. The fuzzy neural network model, which consists of a fuzzy inference system and a neuronal training system, is optimized by a hybrid learning method that combines a genetic algorithm to optimize the membership function parameters and a least squares method to solve the consequent parameters. The data of finite element analysis are divided into four data groups, which are split according to two end-section constraints and two prediction paths. Four fuzzy neural network models were therefore applied to the numerical data obtained from the finite element analysis for the two end-section constraints and the two prediction paths. The fuzzy neural network models were trained with the aid of a data set prepared for training (training data), optimized by means of an optimization data set and verified by means of a test data set that was different (independent) from the training data and the optimization data. The accuracy of fuzzy neural network models is known to be sufficiently accurate for use in an integrity evaluation by predicting the residual stress of dissimilar metal welding zones.

The compressive strength of self-compacting concrete (SCC) containing fly ash (FA) is highly related to its constituents. The principal purpose of this paper is to investigate the efficiency of hybrid fuzzy radial basis function neural network with biogeography-based optimization (FRBFNN-BBO) for predicting the compressive strength of SCC containing FA based on its mix design i.e., cement, fly ash, water, fine aggregate, coarse aggregate, superplasticizer, and age. In this regard, biogeography-based optimization (BBO) is applied for the optimal design of fuzzy radial basis function neural network (FRBFNN) and the proposed model, implemented in a MATLAB environment, is constructed, trained and tested using 338 available sets of data obtained from 24 different published literature sources. Moreover, the artificial neural network and three types of radial basis function neural network models are applied to compare the efficiency of the proposed model. The statistical analysis results strongly showed that the proposed FRBFNN-BBO model has good performance in desirable accuracy for predicting the compressive strength of SCC with fly ash.

We have performed a design optimization of a stiffened panel with curvilinear stiffeners using an artificial neural network (ANN) residual kriging based surrogate modeling approach. The ANN residual kriging based surrogate modeling involves two steps. In the first step, we approximate the objective function using ANN. In the next step we use kriging to model the residue. We optimize the panel in an iterative way. Each iteration involves two steps-shape optimization and size optimization. For both shape and size optimization, we use ANN residual kriging based surrogate model. At each optimization step, we do an initial sampling and fit an ANN residual kriging model for the objective function. Then we keep updating this surrogate model using an adaptive sampling algorithm until the minimum value of the objective function converges. The comparison of the design obtained using our optimization scheme with that obtained using a traditional genetic algorithm (GA) based optimization scheme shows satisfactory agreement. However, with this surrogate model based approach we reach optimum design with less computation effort as compared to the GA based approach which does not use any surrogate model.

The printed circuit heat exchanger (PCHE) with airfoil fins has the benefits of high compactness, high efficiency and superior heat transfer performance. A novel multi-objective optimization approach is presented to design the airfoil fin PCHE in this paper. Three optimization design variables (the vertical number, the horizontal number and the staggered number) are obtained by means of dimensionless airfoil fin arrangement parameters. And the optimization objective is to maximize the Nusselt number (Nu) and minimize the Fanning friction factor (f). Firstly, in order to investigate the impact of design variables on the thermal-hydraulic performance, a parametric study via the design of experiments is proposed. Subsequently, the relationships between three optimization design variables and two objective functions (Nu and f) are characterized by an improved particle swarm optimization-backpropagation artificial neural network. Finally, a multi-objective optimization is used to construct the Pareto optimal front, in which the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm II is used. The comprehensive performance is found to be the best when the airfoil fins are completely staggered arrangement. And the best compromise solution based on the TOPSIS method is identified as the optimal solution, which can achieve the requirement of high heat transfer performance and low flow resistance.
