Feature-based environmental issues: neural network-based feature recognition
by F. Ozturk, N. Ozturk
International Journal of Vehicle Design (IJVD), Vol. 21, No. 2/3, 1999

Abstract: Today, the automotive industry is faced with more pressure to realise higher quality products, lower production costs and shorter lead times. The key to the success of organisations is the effective integration of design and other downstream applications such as machining, process planning, analysis, assembly, inspection etc. This paper reviews the current research in feature recognition and neural network applications in feature-based environments. The central issues associated with feature-based environments and drawbacks of the current approaches are addressed. The future research directions and proposals to overcome the shortcomings are presented.
