Abstract :
A novel soft computing system to optimize a dental milling process is proposed. The model is based on the initial application of several statistical and projection methods as Principal Component Analysis and Cooperative Maximum Likelihood Hebbian Learning to analyze the structure of the data set and to identify the most relevant variables. Finally, a supervised neural model and identification techniques are applied, in order to model the process and optimize it. In this study a real data set obtained by a dynamic machining center with five axes simultaneously is analyzed to empirically test the novel system in order to optimize the time error.
