Summary

With the rise of Industry 4.0, industrial machines and manufacturing processes are being widely connected and monitored which produces a large amount of sensory data. Data-driven approaches have shown huge potential in achieving precise and intelligent condition monitoring and optimization of industrial machines and processes. Deep learning, a subcategory of machine learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI), has achieved remarkable success in various areas in the recent decade. However, critical challenges still exist in developing effective and reliable AI solutions in practical industrial settings, e.g. lack of data, varying working conditions, sensor failure and strong sensing noise, etc. This seminar will introduce the recent methodological advances of deep learning-based approaches in solving these problems for smart and sustainable manufacturing. Also, the latest physics-informed machine learning and its applications will be presented which has huge potential in solving a wide range of engineering problems.
