Abstract:

A bus-styling appraisement method by constructing an expert system based on the artificial neural net-work (ANN) is presented in this paper. The key techniques of the expert system for quasi-three-dimension bus-sty-ling appraisement are then investigated , including the data collection , the graph pre-processing , the database con-struction and the design and training of ANN model , etc. Moreover , an expert system software is developed to app-raise bus styling. The effectiveness of the software is finally verified by a practical bus-styling task.

Key words: expert system, neural network, bus styling, styling appraisement
