Summary

The industrial system is the nerve center widely used in the fields of critical infrastructure such as power, petroleum and petrochemical, water conservancy, transportation, and nuclear facilities. With the increasing demand for intelligent manufacturing, the essence of the modern industrial system has been transformed into human-cyber-physical systems. Therefore, the industrial system has become a complex system with many factors, and the modeling and design guided by machine learning (ML) are gradually applied to large-scale production with higher accuracy.


In recent years, industrial production has reached an unprecedented level. In the complex industrial system operation process, huge amounts of production, operation, control, and other kinds of data are generated, which can be generally characterized by massiveness, multi-source, heterogeneity, and high-dimension. The accumulation of big data not only promotes the development of production technology but also brings great challenges. Due to its limited representation ability, the traditional modeling method cannot fully extract the information contained in the big data of the industrial system, thus, intelligent modeling intends to fully explore the useful information in big data by constructing an appropriate intelligent modeling structure. Accordingly, ML-guided directed evolution has become a new paradigm for industrial design that enables the optimization of complex functions. Both structured and unstructured data from industrial systems can be applied to ML intelligent modeling use to predict how sequence maps function without requiring a detailed model of the underlying physics pathways. Then it can help the system to make more accurate intelligent decisions and promote the concept of digital twins.

 

The focus of this Special Issue is on the development of ML-guided intelligent modeling for solving problems in the fields of industrial.

    Abstract Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have achieved high accuracy in image classification tasks, however, most existing models are trained on high-quality images that are not subject to image degradation. In practice, images are often affected by various types of degradation which can significantly impact the performance of CNNs. In this work, we investigate the influence of image degradation on three typical image classification CNNs and propose a Degradation Type Adaptive Image Classification Model (DTA-ICM) to improve the existing CNNs’ classification accuracy on degraded images. The proposed DTA-ICM comprises two key components: a Degradation Type Predictor (DTP) and a Degradation Type… More >

    Abstract A real-time adaptive roles allocation method based on reinforcement learning is proposed to improve human-robot cooperation performance for a curtain wall installation task. This method breaks the traditional idea that the robot is regarded as the follower or only adjusts the leader and the follower in cooperation. In this paper, a self-learning method is proposed which can dynamically adapt and continuously adjust the initiative weight of the robot according to the change of the task. Firstly, the physical human-robot cooperation model, including the role factor is built. Then, a reinforcement learning model that can adjust the role factor in real… More >

    Abstract Currently, open-source software is gradually being integrated into industrial software, while industry protocols in industrial software are also gradually transferred to open-source community development. Industrial protocol standardization organizations are confronted with fragmented and numerous code PR (Pull Request) and informal proposals, and different workflows will lead to increased operating costs. The open-source community maintenance team needs software that is more intelligent to guide the identification and classification of these issues. To solve the above problems, this paper proposes a PR review prediction model based on multi-dimensional features. We extract 43 features of PR and divide them into five dimensions: contributor,… More >

    Abstract Transmission line (TL) Parameter Identification (PI) method plays an essential role in the transmission system. The existing PI methods usually have two limitations: (1) These methods only model for single TL, and can not consider the topology connection of multiple branches for simultaneous identification. (2) Transient bad data is ignored by methods, and the random selection of terminal section data may cause the distortion of PI and have serious consequences. Therefore, a multi-task PI model considering multiple TLs’ spatial constraints and massive electrical section data is proposed in this paper. The Graph Attention Network module is used to draw a… More >

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.131, No.1, pp. 429-444, 2022, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2022.019202
    (This article belongs to this Special Issue: Machine Learning-Guided Intelligent Modeling with Its Industrial Applications)
    Abstract Target detection of small samples with a complex background is always difficult in the classification of remote sensing images. We propose a new small sample target detection method combining local features and a convolutional neural network (LF-CNN) with the aim of detecting small numbers of unevenly distributed ground object targets in remote sensing images. The k-nearest neighbor method is used to construct the local neighborhood of each point and the local neighborhoods of the features are extracted one by one from the convolution layer. All the local features are aggregated by maximum pooling to obtain global feature representation. The classification… More >

    Abstract Inertial system platforms are a kind of important precision devices, which have the characteristics of difficult acquisition for state data and small sample scale. Focusing on the model optimization for data-driven fault state prediction and quantitative degree measurement, a fast small-sample supersphere one-class SVM modeling method using support vectors pre-selection is systematically studied in this paper. By theorem-proving the irrelevance between the model's learning result and the non-support vectors (NSVs), the distribution characters of the support vectors are analyzed. On this basis, a modeling method with selected samples having specific geometry character from the training sets is also proposed. The… More >
