Machine Learning in Manufacturing – Using Artificial Intelligence to Optimize Processes

As the manufacturing industry is moving away from the traditional long term service contract to an'Analytics-as-a-Service' model, big data applications are increasingly being used to collect data from manufacturing operations. Using big data, you can accurately predict failure in operations well ahead of time, increasing the service revenue and reducing the cost of service. In addition, you can predict the health of your equipment in real time, and release equipment for maintenance only when necessary. Through the use of neural networks, support vector machines, and decision trees, you can identify complex interdependencies within operational parameters and detect anomalies that lead to equipment failures.
