... is set according to the sigmoid transfer function. Findings The proposed ANN and regression model are able to predict the thread consumption with more accuracy for multilayered seam assembly. The predictability of thread consumption from available geometrical models, regression models and industrial...

...B.K. Behera; R. Guruprasad The objective of this paper is to investigate the predictability of air permeability of cotton woven fabrics from their construction variables by using a feed-forward back-propagation network in an artificial neural network (ANN) system. In order to achieve this objective...
