Deep learning has been widely used in different fields such as computer vision and speech processing. The performance of deep algorithms is greatly affected by their hyperparameters. For complex machine models neural networks, it difficult to determine In addition, existing hyperparameter optimization easily converge a local optimal solution. This paper proposes method for that combines the Sparrow Search Algorithm Particle Swarm Optimization, called Hybrid Algorithm. takes advantages...
Abstract For certain combinations of cutter spinning speeds and cutting depths in milling operations, self-excited vibrations or chatter the tool are generated. The deteriorates surface finish workpiece reduces useful working life tool. In past, extensive work has been reported on detections based deflection sound generated during process, which is costly due to additional sensor circuitry required. On other hand, manual intervention necessary interpret result. present research, online...
Abstract Additive manufacturing (AM) offers many advantages to make objects compared traditional subtractive methods. For example, complex geometries can be easily fabricated, and lightweight parts formed while maintaining the strength for low carbon footprint, material consumption waste. But there are some areas AM improve in sustainability, reliability, productivity, robustness, diversity, part quality. Life-cycle assessment studies have identified that printing stage has a big impact on...
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to develop an effective approach decide design details using benchmarking capture the existing practice in sustainable design. Design/methodology/approach This reports a systematic method for product uses benchmarks as references searching achieve solutions. Quality function deployment used guide search process competitive products meet quantitative targets and increase knowledge Findings proposed can both functional requirements 18.55 percent reduction...
Machine learning algorithms have been widely used to deal with a variety of practical problems such as computer vision and speech processing. But the performance machine is primarily affected by their hyper-parameters, without good hyper-parameter values these will be very poor. Unfortunately, for complex models like deep neural networks, it difficult determine hyper-parameters. Therefore, great significance develop an efficient algorithm automatic optimization. In this paper, novel...
User experience has a significant impact on the effective product design and improvement, especially for personalized to meet user’s individual need.

Selective disassembly planning searches solutions to separate useful parts of a product be reused or recycled at the end life. An efficient method is essential for in recycling process reduce operation time and cost. This paper proposes an selective sequence considering destructive operations. Different from most existing methods that mainly consider non-destructive disassembly, operations are considered improve efficiency. representation approach search algorithms proposed generate optimal...
