    Diabetic patients can be detected now a days globally. It�s main reason of growth is the incapability of body to produce enough insulin. So, majority of people today are either diabetic or pre-diabetic. Therefore, it is very much required to develop a system that can detect and classify the diabetes in optimal time period effectively and efficiently. So, proposed system make use of fuzzy logic and adaptive cuckoo search optimization algorithm (ACS) for diabetes classification. This work has been carried out in various steps. Firstly, the training dataset�s dimensionality reduction and optimal fuzzy rule generation via ACS optimization technique. Next is fuzzy model design and testing of fuzzified testing dataset. In this paper, outcome of FF-BAT algorithm has been compared with ACS algorithm. Experimental results were examined and it is noticed that ACS algorithm seems to perform better than FF-BAT algorithm

    Poor surface finish on die and mould transfers the bad quality to processed parts. High surface roughness is an example of bad surface finish that is normally reduced by manual polishing after conventional milling machining process. Therefore, in order to avoid disadvantages by manual polishing and disadvantage by the machining, a sequence of two machining operations is proposed. The main operation is run by the machining and followed by Rotary Ultrasonic Machining Assisted Milling (RUMAM). However, this sequence operation requires optimum input parameters to generate the lowest surface roughness. Hence, this paper aims to optimize the input parameters for both machining operations by three soft-computing approaches – Genetic Algorithm, Tabu Search, and Particle Swarm Optimization. The method adopted in this paper begins with a fitness function development, optimization approach usage and ends up with result evaluation and validation. The soft-computing approaches result outperforms the experiment result in having minimum surface roughness. Based on the findings, the conclusion suggests that the lower surface roughness can be obtained by applying the input parameters at maximum for the cutting speed and vibration frequency, and at minimum for machining feed rate. This finding assists manufacturers to apply proper input values to obtain parts with minimum surface roughness

    Judgment matrix aggregation, as an important part of group decision-making, has been widely and deeply studied due to the universality and importance of group decision-making in the management field. For the variety of judgment matrix in group decision-making, the matrix aggregation result can be obtained by using the mode of glowworm swarm optimization. First, this paper introduces the basic principle of the glowworm swarm optimization (GSO) algorithm and gives the improved GSO algorithm to solve the matrix aggregation problems. In this approach, the consistency ratio is introduced to the objective function of the glowworm swarm optimization, thus reducing the subjectivity and information loss in the aggregation process. Then, the improved GSO algorithm is applied to the solution of the deterministic matrix and the fuzzy matrix. The method optimization can provide an effective and relatively uniform aggregation method for matrix aggregation. Finally, through comparative analysis, it is shown that the method of this paper has certain advantages in terms of adaptability, accuracy, and stability to solving the matrix aggregation problems

    Present manufacturing systems often generate enormous amounts of data, that are often forgotten or lost. A major reason for ignoring such data is the heterogeneity of data. This research focuses on the heterogeneity between the manufacturing machine’s capacity parameters and part design. In manufacturing factories, the machine capacity data is available in form of machine specifications, while part data is stored in 2D or 3D-CAD models. In this thesis, a framework is proposed to provide guidelines and strategies for acquiring, pre-processing, and storing manufacturing capacity data in the form of structured table-oriented database systems. The framework also proposes the extraction, pre-processing, and storage of dimensional data of Computer-Aided Design (CAD) part models into feature-based-logical storage within XML files. Such a database storage system can improve vendor search using advanced predictive modeling. Such a system is beneficial for small-medium scale machine shops for quantifying their manufacturing capability and constraints and linking such with a prospective pool of manufacturing part’s designs

    Concurrent optimization of process parameters and product design variables for near net shape manufacturing processes

    This paper presents a new systematic approach to the optimization of both design and manufacturing variables across a multi-step production process. The approach assumes a generic manufacturing process in which an initial Near Net Shape (NNS) process is followed by a limited number of finishing operations. In this context the optimisation problem becomes a multi-variable problem in which the aim is to optimize by minimizing cost (or time) and improving technological performances (e.g. turning force). To enable such computation a methodology, named Conditional Design Optimization (CoDeO) is proposed which allows the modelling and simultaneous optimization of process parameters and product design (geometric variables), using single or multi-criteria optimization strategies. After investigation of CoDeO’s requirements, evolutionary algorithms, in particular Genetic Algorithms, are identified as the most suitable for overall NNS manufacturing chain optimization The CoDeO methodology is tested using an industrial case study that details a process chain composed of casting and machining processes. For the specific case study presented the optimized process resulted in cost savings of 22% (corresponding to equivalent machining time savings) and a 10% component weight reduction

    Glowworm swarm optimization (GSO) for optimization of machining parameters

    No full text
    This study proposes glowworm swarm optimization (GSO) algorithm to estimate an improved value of machining performance measurement. GSO is a recent nature-inspired optimization algorithm that simulates the behavior of the lighting worms. To the best our knowledge, GSO algorithm has not yet been used for optimization practice particularly in machining process. Three cutting parameters of end milling that influence the machining performance measurement, minimum surface roughness, are cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut. Taguchi method is performed for experimental design. The analysis of variance is applied to investigate effects of cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut on surface roughness. GSO has improved machining process by estimating a much lower value of minimum surface roughness compared to the results of experimental and particle swarm optimization
