A New Approach of Adaptive Network-Based Fuzzy Inference System Modeling in Laser Processing-A Graphical User Interface (GUI) Based | Science Publications

摘要

> Problem statement: The power of Artificial Intelligent (AI) becomes more authoritative when the system is programmed to cater the need of complex applications. MATLAB 2007B, integrating artificial intelligent system and Graphical User Interface (GUI) has reduced researchers' fear-to-model factor due to unfamiliarity and phobia to produce program codes. Approach: In this study, how GUI was developed on Matlab to model laser machining process using Adaptive Network-based Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) was presented. Laser cutting machine is widely known for having the most number of controllable parameters among the advanced machine tools, hence become more difficult to engineer the process into desired responses; surface roughness and kerf width. Mastering both laser processing and ANFIS programming are difficult task for most researchers, especially for the difficult to model processes. Therefore, a new approach was ventured, where GUI was developed using MATLAB integrating ANFIS variables to model the laser processing phenomenon, in which the numeric and graphical output can be easily printed to interpret the results. Results: To investigate ANFIS variables
