Response to Sha’s comment on article titled ‘Investigative study on machinability aspects of unreinforced and reinforced PEEK composite machining using ANN model’
This article adresses the issue of artificial neural network (ANN) training by limited number of samples as raised by Dr. Sha to predict the machinability aspects of unreinforced and reinforced PEEK composite machining. In view of this, the importance of ANN training with the samples obtained by performing the experiments as per factorial design of experiments with orthogonality property to capture the input-output relationship over an experimental region has been emphasized.
