Optimization Welding Process Parameters through Response Surface, Neural Network and Genetic Algorithms

Since the Neural Network (NN) with a Genetic Algorithm (GA) as a complement; are good optimization tools, we compare its performance with the Response Surface Methodology (RSM) that is generally used in the optimization of the process, in this case welding process. For the data used in the comparison, the results show that NN plus GA and RSM have a good results and very well performance, for identify the optimal set of parameters to obtain amaximum response of the process.
