Advances and opportunities in machine learning for process data analytics

Abstract

Abstract In this paper we introduce the current thrust of development in machine learning and artificial intelligence, fueled by advances in statistical learning theory over the last 20 years and commercial successes by leading big data companies. Then we discuss the characteristics of process manufacturing systems and briefly review the data analytics research and development in the last three decades. We give three attributes for process data analytics to make machine learning techniques applicable in the process industries. Next we provide a perspective on the currently active topics in machine learning that could be opportunities for process data analytics research and development. Finally we address the importance of a data analytics culture. Issues discussed range from technology development to workforce education and from government initiatives to curriculum enhancement.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
