An instance representation model of the process planning reflecting the thinking process of techni- cians is established to achieve an effective representation of the process documents. The related process attributes are extracted from the model to form the related events. The manifold learning algorithm and clustering analysis are used to preprocess the process instance data. A rule extraction mechanism of process design is introduced, which is based on the related events after dimension reduction and clustering, and uses the association rule mining algorithm to realize the similar process information extraction in the same cluster. Through the vectorization description of the related events, the final process design rules are formed. Finally, an example is given to evaluate the method of process design rules extraction.展开更多

The user's personalized operations of the related work were analyzed to conclude the pattern of Goal modification. By the direct drive of Goal modification, the corresponding changes of Process were induced and specified. Then rules for the cooperation between Goal and Process were concluded and the formalization was achieved in Semantic Web Rule Language (SWRL). In this paper, reasoning support was provided for the model modification based on ontology and the dynamic evolution of Process model.展开更多

First, weighted directed liaison graph (WDLG) is proposed to represent the model of block assembly process according to the characteristics of assembly relation, and edge list (EL) is used to describe assembly sequences. Shapes and assembly attributes of block parts are analyzed to determine the assembly position and matched parts of parts used frequently. Then, a series of assembly rules are generalized, and assembly sequences for block are obtained by means of rule reasoning. Final, a prototype system of computer-aided block assembly process planning is built. The system has been tested on actual block, and the results were found to be quite efficiency. Meanwhile, the fundament for the automation of block assembly process generation and integration with other systems is established.展开更多

However,processing defects are often seen in work pieces because of lacking available rules for the processdesign and control. Some basic rules for the process design and control, simply named the shortestflowing length, pressure filling and the minimum uplifting mold pressure, are advanced in the paperbased on amount of researches and experiments. The equations to determine the major processparameters are given out such as the filling pressure, forming pressure and locking mold pressurefor the process design and control. The rules and equations are experimentally proved available andapplicable by several actual work pieces produced by the semisolid forging process.展开更多

Hybrid soft-sensor modeling is a good method for on-line estimation of biomass. Structure of hybrid soft-sensor model is a key to improve the estimating accuracy. In this paper, a forward heuristic breadth-first reasoning approach based on rule match is proposed for constructing structure of hybrid model. First, strategy of forward heuristic reasoning about facts is introduced, which can reason complex hybrid model structure in the event of few known facts. Second, rule match degree is defined to obtain higher esti- mating accuracy. The experiment results of Nosiheptide fermentation process show that the hybrid modeling process can estimate biomass with higher accuracy by adding transcendental knowledge and partial mechanism to the process.展开更多

The scheme aims to dig the hidden close relationships of different links in process object. We adopt a method based on difference and extremum to compute the timing. Clustering is used to classifying the adjusted data, and the next is associating the clusters. Based on the rules of clusters, we produce the rules of links. Association degrees between each two links can be determined. It is easy to get association chains according to the degree. The state association rules that can be obtained in accordance with association rules are the final results. Some industry guidance can be directly summarized from the state association rules, and we can apply the guidance to improve the efficiency of production and operational in allied industries.展开更多
