Abstract

The two-dimensional morphology of the cladding layer has an important influence on the quality of the cladding layer and the crack tendency. Using the powerful nonlinear processing ability of the single hidden layer feedforward neural network, a prediction model between the cladding technological parameters and the two-dimensional morphology of the cladding layer is established. Taking the cladding parameters as the input and the two-dimensional morphology of the cladding as the output, the experimental data is used to train the network to achieve a high-level mapping of the input and output. On this basis, the algorithm of extreme learning machine is used to optimize the single hidden layer feedforward neural network to overcome the problems of slow convergence speed, more network training parameters and easy local convergence in back-propagation algorithm. The results show that the relationship between the cladding process parameters and the two-dimensional morphology of the cladding layer can be roughly reflected by the back-propagation algorithm. However, the prediction results are not stable and the error rate is between 10% and 40%. The neural network optimized by the extreme learning machine is utilized to get a better prediction result. The error rate is 10–20%.
