New ways to cut production costs with neural nets
New ways to cut production costs with neural nets
Scientists have developed an innovative information processing technology, the neural network, that mimics the human brain. Neural nets can solve problems that are too complex for traditional computers.
Today, neural nets are being applied to an increasing number of real world problems in heavy industry. They are on the factory floor, optimising the control of a process, the assembly of components, or the inspection of parts.
How can this innovative technology help engineers and designers increase productivity, and drive down production costs? They will find the answer in a new report from Technical Insights: Neural Nets in Manufacturing: Smart Computing for Real World Problems.
"This report gives clients a clear idea of the principal issues involved in the evolution and application of neural nets in manufacturing", says Peter C. Katz, publisher at Technical Insights. "We also address topics like 'what are the major issues to be solved in applying neural nets? Are there useful lessons for manufacturing from other areas, like finance?'"
Neural Nets in Manufacturing covers dozens of research groups and companies involved in neural network applications, across a range of industries. And it provides complete contact information so that readers can get in touch with the key individuals to pursue opportunities that can accelerate a company's profitability and growth.
Neural Nets in Manufacturing: Smart Computing for Real World Problems is available from Technical Insights for US$1,800 (US$1,875 outside the USA).
