Abstract

The purpose of this article is to present the application of neural network for modeling electric discharge machining process. This article highlights the various aspects of neural network modeling with specific regard to EDM process. Experimental data has been used to train the neural network by back-propagation. Prediction ability of the trained model has been verified experimentally and the reported results indicate that proposed neural network model can successfully predict the output for a given set of input.
