摘要
The classification and coding of parts for group technology applications continue to be labour intensive and time-consuming processes. In this paper a pattern recognition approach utilizing neural networks is presented for the automation of some elements of this critical activity. As an illustrative example, a neural network system is used to generate part geometry-related digits of the Opitz code from bitmaps of part drawings. It is found to generate codes accurately and promises to be a useful tool for the automatic generation of shape-based classes and codes.
