ANN genetic algorithmSupervised learningModel structure with 1 hidden layer, where 7 neurons in the layer were chosenDataset by a combination of native (MT) and substitutionary (MS, i) data from other data domainAll implementations were done in Python. TensorFlow, Keras, and scikit-learnReduces the requirement of many training dataExperiments have not been designed with geometrically different parts[29]
Artificial neural network genetic algorithmSupervised algorithmA 3-layered backpropagation network (BPN) with a supervised learning algorithm was employed for producing required output-input layersDataset consisted of parameters of mold design, part design, and processHybrid NN. GA systems are implemented on Visual Basic programming languages. Validation tests were performed in desktop computers for PII-three hundred processors and one hundred and twenty-eight Mbytes about memory as utilizing commercial mold flow simulation packages C MOLDTime needed for the determination of starting process parameter for injection molding could be significantly reducedThe effectiveness of that system is not verified and validated[108]
Genetic algorithmSupervised learningThree-layer networkTwo datasets: one of them was from Petronas Penapisan (Melaka) and the second dataset was XOR common problem datasetMATLABThe performance of the proposed ANN-GA approach was compared with existing 5 approaches in terms of the prediction effectivenessOptimum ANN parameters into a broader search space are not determined[109]
Genetic algorithmsSupervised learningNADataset consists of parameters like cooling time, back pressure, screw rotation speed, injection pressure, injection rate, holding pressure, nozzle temperature, holding time, and open strokeENGEL injection molding machine (USA) was equipped with EC88/CC90 and A02 controllersDifferent sized simplexes were the apt methods for online optimization of the situationThe percentage of reject was also susceptible to half pressure level and cool time[110]
Genetic algorithmSupervised learningA three-layer network, the hidden layer contains six nodes.The dataset was sixty from the GDC plant in Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS, and five hundred datasets from the Sdn Bhd in PETRONAS Penapisan and sixty-four experiment datasets from flank wear for the drilling process were used in developing the newly proposed architectureMATLAB functionProcess of designing ANN is less dependent on humans and is more sophisticatedThe training data used are not sufficient[111]
Genetic algorithmSupervised learningTwo-layer network where a hidden layer contains the radial basis neuron and the output layer contains the linear neuronA dataset used in this study consists of 102 sets.Moldflow softwareThe proposed approach can effectively be helpful for the engineer’s determination of optimal gate, locations, and other designing elements for achieving competition profits about product cost and qualityDuring detection in the optimum location of the gate, many parts have not been considered[44]
