Rapid process modeling of the aerosol jet printing based on gaussian process regression with latin hypercube sampling by Zhang, Haining, Moon, Seung Ki, Ngo, T. H., Tou, J., Bin Mohamed Yusoff, M. A.

“…Hence, it is necessary to develop a small data set based machine learning approach to model relationship between the process parameters and the line morphology. In this paper, we propose a rapid process modeling method for AJP process and consider sheath gas flow rate, carrier gas flow rate, stage speed as AJP process parameters, and line width and line roughness as the line morphology. …”
