An artifi cial neural network, o en just called a neural network, is a mathematical (or computational) model that is inspired by the structure and function of biological neural networks in the brain. An artifi cial neural network consists of a number of artifi cial neurons (i.e., nonlinear processing units) which are connected each other via synaptic weights (or simply just weights). An artifi cial neural network can “learn” a task by adjusting weights. There are supervised and unsupervised models. A supervised model requires a “teacher” or desired (ideal) output to learn a task. An unsupervised model does not require a “teacher,” but it leans a task based on a cost function associated with the task. An artifi cial neural network is a powerful, versatile tool. Artifi cial neural networks have been successfully used in various applications such as biological, medical, industrial, control engendering, so ware engineering, environmental, economical, and social applications. The high versatility of artifi cial neural networks comes from its high capability and learning function. It has been theoretically proved that an artifi cial neural network can approximate any continu- ous mapping by arbitrary precision. Desired continuous mapping or a desired task is acquired in an artifi cial neural network by learning. The purpose of this book series is to provide recent advances of artifi cial neural net- work applications in a wide range of areas. The series consists of two volumes: the fi rst volume contains methodological advances and biomedical applications of artifi cial neural networks; the second volume contains artifi cial neural network applications in industrial and control engineering. This second volume begins with a part of artifi cial neural network applications in tex- tile industries which are concerned with the design and manufacture of clothing as well as the distribution and use of textiles. The part contains a review of various appli- cations of artifi cial neural networks in textile and clothing industries as well as partic- ular applications. A part of materials science and industry follows. This part contains applications of artifi cial neural networks in material identifi cation, and estimation of material property, behavior, and state. Parts continue with food industry such as meat, electric and power industry such as ba eries, power systems, and power allocation systems, mechanical engineering such as engines and machines, control and robotic engineering such as nonlinear system control, induction motors, system identifi cation, signal and fault diagnosis systems, and robot manipulation. X Preface Thus, this book will be a fundamental source of recent advances and applications of artifi cial neural networks in industrial and control engineering areas. The target audi- ence of this book includes professors, college students, and graduate students in engi- neering schools, and engineers and researchers in industries. I hope this book will be a useful source for readers and inspire them.
