Abstract

Authors present the comparison of properties observed in numerical models, that were used to classify features of mechanical constructions. We use these models to detect similarities between mechanical designs and compare them on how well they quantify the description of the mechanical elements, and how they deal with arising challenges: multi-dimensionality of feature values, multiple classes of relations, data incompleteness and variability of format. The key conclusion here, is the ability of modern numerical models (i.e. ConvNet, CapsNet) to process information describing mechanical constructions, while including meaningful structural data in the calculations. Application of these models can provide direct assistance in the mechanical design process.
