This paper suggests a novel robust formulation designed for optimizing the parameters of the turning process in an uncertain environment for the first time. The aim is to achieve the lowest energy consumption and highest precision. With this aim, the current paper considers uncertain parameters, objective functions, and constraints in the offered mathematical model. We proposed several uncertain models and validated the results in real-world case studies. In addition, several artificial intelligence-based solution techniques are designed to solve the complex nonlinear problem. We determined the most efficient solution approach by solving various test problems. Then, simulated several scenarios to demonstrate the robustness of our results. The results showed that the solutions provided by the offered model significantly reduce energy consumption in different setups. To ensure the reliability of the results, we carried out worst-case sensitivity analyses and found the most critical parameters. The results of the worst-case analyses indicated that the offered robust model is efficient and saves a significant amount of energy comparing to traditional models. It is shown that the provided solution by the presented robust formulation is reliable in all situations and results in the lowest energy and the best machining precision.

Improving reinforcement learning by using sequence trees Girgin, Sertan; Polat, Faruk; Alhajj, Reda (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2010-12-01) This paper proposes a novel approach to discover options in the form of stochastic conditionally terminating sequences; it shows how such sequences can be integrated into the reinforcement learning framework to improve the learning performance. The method utilizes stored histories of possible optimal policies and constructs a specialized tree structure during the learning process. The constructed tree facilitates the process of identifying frequently used action sequences together with states that are visit...
Generation of patterned indentations for additive manufacturing technologies Yaman, Ulaş; Dölen, Melik; Hoffmann, Christoph (Informa UK Limited, 2019-02-01) This article proposes a novel approach to generate patterned indentations for different additive manufacturing methodologies. Surface textures have many practical applications in various fields, but require special manufacturing considerations. In addition to conventional manufacturing processes, additive processes have also been utilized in the last decade to obtain textured surfaces. The current design and fabrication pipeline of additive manufacturing operations have many disadvantages in that respect. F...
Free forming of locally heated specimens Okman, O.; Ozmen, M.; Huwiler, H.; Tekkaya, A. E. (Elsevier BV, 2007-06-01) A novel manufacturing method is investigated, in which a steep temperature gradient within the workpiece is induced to facilitate material flow locally. By this method, complex shapes can be formed without complicated dies. The feasibility of the idea is analyzed experimentally and numerically. Local heating is realized either by means of induction or laser heating. Experiments using materials 16MnCr5, X5CrNi18/9, and Ti6Al4V have been conducted under various process conditions. These experiments have also ...
Resampling approach for cluster model selection Volkovich, Z.; Barzily, Z.; Weber, Gerhard Wilhelm; Toledano-Kitai, D.; Avros, R. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2011-10-01) In cluster analysis, selecting the number of clusters is an "ill-posed" problem of crucial importance. In this paper we propose a re-sampling method for assessing cluster stability. Our model suggests that samples' occurrences in clusters can be considered as realizations of the same random variable in the case of the "true" number of clusters. Thus, similarity between different cluster solutions is measured by means of compound and simple probability metrics. Compound criteria result in validation rules em...
Nuclear Fission-Nuclear Fusion algorithm for global optimization: a modified Big Bang-Big Crunch algorithm YALÇIN, YAĞIZER; Pekcan, Onur (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-04-01) This study introduces a derivative of the well-known optimization algorithm, Big Bang-Big Crunch (BB-BC), named Nuclear Fission-Nuclear Fusion-based BB-BC, simply referred to as N2F. Broadly preferred in the engineering optimization community, BB-BC provides accurate solutions with reasonably fast convergence rates for many engineering problems. Regardless, the algorithm often suffers from stagnation issues. More specifically, for some problems, BB-BC either converges prematurely or exploits the promising r...
