CSE 512 - Artificial Intelligence in Manufacturing

(4 credits)

This course focuses on the integration of the techniques and methodologies from artificial intelligence and manufacturing engineering. On the manufacturing side, issues of design, manufacturability, process planning and cost analysis are cast around feature-based CAD/ CAM technologies. The artificial intelligence techniques include standard transparent representation schemes of rule bases and semantic networks as well as the most up-to-date opaque representations of neural networks and genetic algorithms, both areas integrated with issues of fuzzy logic and control. Involves a large class project. Credit cannot be received for both ISE 512 and CSE 512.

Prerequisite(s): Student must have a background in artificial intelligence, manufacturing, or business.
