Box 80204, Jeddah 21589, Saudi Arabia a r t i c l e i n f o Article history: Received 27 April 2013 Received in revised form 26 October 2014 Accepted 29 October 2014 Available online 7 November 2014 Keywords: EDM MRR Polynomial model Neuro-fuzzy model Non-conventional machining a b s t r a c t Due to the controversy associated with modelling Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) processes based on physical laws; this task is predominantly accomplished using empirical modelling methods. The modelling studies reported in the literature deal predominantly with quantitative parameters i.e. ones with numerical levels. In fact, modelling categorical parameters has been devoted a scant attention. This study reports the results of an EDM experiment conducted on the Ti–6Al–4V alloy. Its aim was to model the relationship between the Material Removal Rate (MRR) and the parameters of the process, namely, current, pulse on-time and pulse off-time along with a categorical factor (electrode material). The modelling process was accomplished using adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) and polynomial modelling approaches. In fact, one purpose of this study was to compare the performance of these modelling approaches as no study was found contrasting their prediction capability in the literature. Regarding the polynomial model, two numerical parameters (current and pulse on-time) were declared significant in the ANOVA together with the electrode material and its interaction with pulse on-time. Thus, they were all incorporated in the developed .
