Prediction of Bead Geometry Using a Two-Stage SVM–ANN Algorithm for Automated Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) Welds

Prediction of weld bead geometry is critical for any welding process, since several mechanical properties of the weldment depend on this. Researchers have used artificial neural networks (ANNs) to predict the bead geometry based on the input parameters for a welding process; however, the number of h...
