Description
Summary:碩士 === 中原大學 === 工業工程研究所 === 81 === Coding and classification scheme and production flow analysis are the two main approaches to implement Group Technology principles. In this research, a hybrid method for coding and classifying rotatory mechanical parts by integrating the bidirectional associate memory model of neural networks and a rule based feature extractor was presented. In additional, a new type of competitive neural networks model to solve production flow analysis problems. To perform the coding and classification, the KK-3 system was used to develop the system. Based on the DXF file of CAD , the operational features of parts are recognized by the rule feature extraction method developed in this research. Weight of our BAM neural network is then built according to the standard definition of KK-3 to obtain the part classification code. results show that:(1)If the input data is complete and correct, output code conforms to KK-3 exactly, and(2)If the input data is insufficient or ambiguous, the output might provide several KK-3 codes from which coding experts can select a suitable one. can accept this new knowledge. This learning feature could system''s performance and meet the needs of realistic system. On the part of production flow analysis, the competitive neural network proposed in this research use the processing operation information of parts as input data and classified parts into groups with balanced sizes and avoid improper classification which is generated by input patterns closely clustered and high similarities among input patterns. The testing results can be divided into two different types: (1)Input patterns are not well-organized (2)Input patterns are well-organized. All the simulation results show that the model can generate correct, consistent and reasonable answers. With the aids of the algorithm, system can handle large scale problems and solving them correctly.
