Abstract :
Studies about presetting temper mills have traditionally used mathematical tools. But artificial neural networks can help solve the problem of modeling complex functions in high-dimensional spaces. On-line implementation of an ANN at a temper mill plant has led to a hybrid model that mixes symbolic and connectionist modules
