Hb. Bahar et Dh. Horrocks, DYNAMIC WEIGHT ESTIMATION USING AN ARTIFICIAL NEURAL-NETWORK, Artificial intelligence in engineering, 12(1-2), 1998, pp. 135-139
A Multi-Layer Perceptron Artificial Neural Network is employed to enab
le the mass that is applied to a weighing platform to be rapidly and a
ccurately estimated before the platform has settled to the steady stat
e. This is achieved through training the network on a set of waveforms
resulting from applied masses over the operating range of the weighin
g platform. Results are given for both simulated and experimental data
that confirm the success of the method. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Lim
