  • © 2021

Overview

  • Discusses several advanced manufacturing processes along with mathematical formulations, and includes numerous illustrations
  • Offers solutions to the complex parameter optimization of these advanced manufacturing processes using several variants of AI-based, socio-cultural inspired methodology, referred to as cohort intelligence
  • Explains variants of the cohort intelligence method and their mathematical formulation, and presents illustrative examples
  • Describes the solutions using over 50 experimentally achieved plots, figures, and illustrations, along with over 25 tables

About this book

This book discusses comprehensively the advanced manufacturing processes, including illustrative examples of the processes, mathematical modeling, and the need to optimize associated parameter problems. In addition, it describes in detail the cohort intelligence methodology and its variants along with illustrations, to help readers gain a better understanding of the framework. The theoretical and statistical rigor is validated by comparing the solutions with evolutionary algorithms, simulation annealing, response surface methodology, the firefly algorithm, and experimental work. Lastly, the book critically reviews several socio-inspired optimization methods.
