Study on the Combination of SOM and K-means Algorithms in Manufacturing Process Quality Control

摘要

Nowadays, customers are seeking products of high quality and low cost. The use of neural networks in quality control has been a popular research topic over the last decade. An adaptive self-organizing mapping (SOM) neural network algorithm is proposed to overcome the shortages of traditional neural networks in this paper. In order to improve the classification effectiveness of SOM neural network, this paper designs an improved SOM neural network, which combined the SOM and K-means algorithms. The flow of combination of SOM and K-means algorithms was analyzed in this paper. And the case study of cement slide shoe bearing in manufacturing process was also given to illustrate the feasible and effective.
