The development of comprehensive grinding process models and computer-aided manufacturing provides a basis for realizing grinding parameter optimization. The variables affecting the economics of machining operations are numerous and include machine tool capacity, required workpiece geometry, cutting conditions such as speed, feed, and depth of cut, and many others. Approximate determination of the cutting conditions not only increases the production cost, but also diminishes the product quality. In this paper a new evolutionary computation technique, particle swarm optimization, is developed to optimize the grinding process parameters such as wheel speed, workpiece speed, depth of dressing, and lead of dressing, simultaneously subjected to a comprehensive set of process constraints, with an objective of minimizing the production cost and maximizing the production rate per workpiece, besides obtaining the finest possible surface finish. Optimal values of the machining conditions obtained by particle swarm optimization are compared with the results of genetic algorithm and quadratic programming techniques.

Titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V is a material with superior properties such as high mechanical strength, corrosion and creep resistance, and high strength-to-weight ratio, which make it an attractive material for various industries such as automotive, aerospace, power generation, and biomedical industries. However, these superior properties as well as its low thermal conductivity and chemical reactivity make it a challenge to machine Ti-6Al-4V at optimal conditions. In order to overcome this challenge, researchers constantly develop new tools and new techniques, but the extent of machining rates that can be used efficiently with those tools and techniques are usually not clear. Considering only one variable in the process and optimizing according to that variable is not sufficient because of the interactions between parameters. Also, selecting one objective function from a pool of many is not beneficial since those objectives are in conflict with one another. Therefore, this study proposes the use of a combined optimization algorithm in order to account for three major variables in end milling of Ti-6Al-4V: cutting speed, feed, and depth of cut. These variables are optimized for multiple objectives. Although it is possible to optimize the process for many different objectives, some of them are heavily correlated to each other, hence two objectives representing machinability and efficiency are selected: tool flank wear and material removal rate. The study aims to establish an optimal Pareto front of machining parameters that would optimize the conflicting outputs of the process, utilizing the multi-objective particle swarm optimization technique.

In this paper, particle swarm optimization, which is a recently developed evolutionary algorithm, is used to optimize parameters in surface grinding processes where multiple conflicting objectives are present. The relationships between surface grinding process parameters and the performance measures of interest are obtained by using experimental data and particle swarm optimization intelligent neural network systems (PSOINNS). The results showed that particle swarm optimization is an effective method for solving multi-objective optimization problems, and an integrated system of neural networks and swarm intelligence can be used in solving complex surface grinding operations optimization problems. In this paper the key grinding process models and relationships that were discovered by previous research efforts have been unified in the form of a particle swarm optimization intelligent neural network systems.

Metal cutting processes are associated with excessive forces, friction and heat generation due to continuous intensive contact between the active cutting tools and the work which degrades the machined surface quality. The hardened tool steel having excellent wear resistance property receives an extensive promotion, investigation and application in the die manufacturing industries. In this research, the machinability of hardened AISI D3 tool steel has been investigated using TiN-coated Al2[Formula: see text](C,N) ceramic tool inserts as per Taguchi’s [Formula: see text] orthogonal design of experiments is in horizontal turning under the dry condition. The experimental dataset was used for the regression model development of primary process outputs as well as mean cutting force using the response surface methodology (RSM) which was found to be significant. The parametric interaction effects on each process output were studied along with with chip morphology in detail. The cutting force as well as material removal rate was found to be significantly influenced by depth of cut, whereas machined surface quality was primarily dependent on tool feed rate. The wider with less prominent saw tooth chips got changed to narrower saw-tooth form with intensive shear bands at higher feed rates. Finally, an attempt has been made to develop an optimal parametric setting using particle swarm optimization technique to achieve minimum surface roughness and maximum material removal rate at less cutting force. The optimal parametric setting was high cutting speed (308[Formula: see text]m/min), high tool feed rate (0.08[Formula: see text]mm/rev) with medium depth of cut (0.6[Formula: see text]mm) to achieve each objective. This evolutionary particle swarm optimization technique was found to be highly accurate (within 8% error) as per validation experiment.

Aims: The proposed research work is on an evolutionary enhanced method for sentiment or emotion classification on unstructured review text in the big data field. The sentiment analysis plays a vital role for current generation of people for extracting valid decision points about any aspect such as movie ratings, education institute or politics ratings, etc. The proposed hybrid approach combined the optimal feature selection using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and sentiment classification through Support Vector Machine (SVM). The current approach performance is evaluated with statistical measures, such as precision, recall, sensitivity, specificity, and was compared with the existing approaches. The earlier authors have achieved an accuracy of sentiment classifier in the English text up to 94% as of now. In the proposed scheme, an average accuracy of sentiment classifier on distinguishing datasets outperformed as 99% by tuning various parameters of SVM, such as constant c value and kernel gamma value in association with PSO optimization technique. The proposed method utilized three datasets, such as airline sentiment data, weather, and global warming datasets, that are publically available. The current experiment produced results that are trained and tested based on 10- Fold Cross-Validations (FCV) and confusion matrix for predicting sentiment classifier accuracy. Background: The sentiment analysis plays a vital role for current generation people for extracting valid decisions about any aspect such as movie rating, education institute or even politics ratings, etc. Sentiment Analysis (SA) or opinion mining has become fascinated scientifically as a research domain for the present environment.

Sodium hypochlorite bleaching washing process has been broadly carried out in denim garment industrial production. However, the quantitative relationships between process variables and bleaching performances have not been illustrated explicitly. Hence, it is impractical to determine values of the variables that can achieve the optimal production cost while satisfying the requirements of customers. This paper proposes an optimization methodology by combining ensemble of surrogates (ESs) with particle swarm optimization (PSO) to optimize production cost of chlorine bleaching for denim. The methodology starts from the data collections by conducting a Taguchi L25 (56) orthogonal experiment with the process variables and metrics for evaluating bleaching performances. Based on the data, the quantitative relationships are separately constructed by using RBFNN, SVR, RF and ensemble of them. Then, accuracies of the surrogates are evaluated and it proves that the ESs outperforms the others. Later, the production cost optimization model is proposed and PSO is utilized to solve it, while a case study is given to depict the optimization process and verify the effectiveness of the proposed hybrid ESs-PSO approach. Overall, the ESs-PSO approach shows great capability of optimizing production cost of sodium hypochlorite bleaching washing for denim.
