Abstract
A reconfigurable manufacturing system (RMS) is designed for rapid adjustment of functionalities in response to market changes. A RMS consists of a number of reconfigurable machine tools (RMTs) for processing different jobs using different processing modules. The potential benefits of a RMS may not be materialized if not properly designed. This paper focuses on RMT design optimization considering three important yet conflicting factors: configurability, cost and process accuracy. The problem is formulated as a multi-objective model. A mechanism is developed to generate and evaluate alternative designs. A modified fuzzy-Chebyshev programming (MFCP) method is proposed to achieve a preferred compromise of the design objectives. Unlike the original fuzzy-Chebyshev programming (FCP) method which imposes an identical satisfaction level for all objectives regardless of their relative importance, the MFCP respects their priority order. This method also features an adaptive satisfaction-level-dependent process to dynamically adjust objective weights in the search process. A particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSOA) is developed to provide quick solutions. The application of the proposed approach is demonstrated using a reconfigurable boring machine. Our computational results have shown that the combined MFCP and PSOA algorithm is efficient and robust. The advantages of the MFCP over the original FCP are also illustrated based on the results.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
