These parameters are important to determine the tensile strength and weld bead penetration of the welded specimen. Large data sets are necessary to train the Neural Network using Matlab ANN tool and hence enable to predict the desired output. The predicted output is validated by comparing with experimental data. © 2017 Author(s). %Z cited By 1; Conference of 3rd Advanced Materials Conference 2016, AMC 2016 ; Conference Date: 28 November 2016 Through 29 November 2016; Conference Code:132474
