Presently, predictions of machining quality primarily rely on process and signal analyses. Process-based predictions are generally constrained to the development of rudimentary regression models. Signal-based predictions often require large amounts of data, multiple processing steps (such as noise reduction, principal component analysis, modulation, etc.), and have low prediction efficiency. In addition, the accuracy of the model depends on tedious manual parameter tuning. This paper proposes a convolutional neural network quality intelligent prediction model based on automatic feature extraction and adaptive data fusion (CNN-AFEADF). Firstly, by processing signals from multiple directions, time-frequency domain images with rich features can be obtained, which significantly benefit neural network learning. Secondly, the corresponding images in three directions are fused into one image by setting different fusion weight parameters. The optimal fusion weight parameters and window length are determined by the Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm (PSO). This data fusion method reduces training time by 16.74 times. Finally, the proposed method is verified by various experiments. This method can automatically identify sensitive data features through neural network fitting experiments and optimization, thereby eliminating the need for expert experience in determining the significance of data features. Based on this approach, the model achieves an average relative error of 2.95%, reducing the prediction error compared to traditional models. Furthermore, this method enhances the intelligent machining level.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":71187,"journal":{"name":"自主智能系统(英文)","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s43684-024-00083-9.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142811308","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The framework is suitable for both static and slow dynamic obstacle environments, aiming to achieve multiple goals of obstacle avoidance, minimizing energy consumption, reducing impact, satisfying dynamic constraints, and ensuring trajectory smoothness. This approach differs in that it reduces energy consumption throughout the movement from a new perspective.

By analyzing the relationships between a series of sets associated with the safety-critical system, the stability and safety conditions can be appropriately relaxed. Then, with the help of relaxed converse control Lyapunov-barrier functions (RCCLBFs), a theoretical result was obtained for the stability of affine nonlinear systems with safety constraints.
