Abstract: An industrial plant operator intervention system for use in an industrial plant includes a processing unit configured to monitor and analyze industrial plant operation data to detect an anomaly in the industrial plant operation data that warrants initiating an operator intervention, and in response to detecting the anomaly, automatically determine a user interface configuration of a user interface to be presented to a designated operator who is to perform the operator intervention. The user interface configuration is determined on the basis of technical context data, including industrial plant operation data associated with the anomaly, and on the basis of operator data pertaining to the designated operator, in such a manner that an anomaly-related and operator-specific user interface configuration is obtained.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method to control technical equipment that performs a production batch-run of a production process, the technical equipment providing data in a form of time-series from a set of data sources, the data sources being related to the technical equipment, includes: accessing a reference time-series with data from a previously performed batch-run of the production process, the reference time-series being related to a parameter for the technical equipment; and while the technical equipment performs the production batch-run: receiving a production time-series with data, identifying a sub-series of the reference time-series, and comparing the received time-series and the sub-series of the reference time-series, to provide an indication of similarity or non-similarity, in case of similarity, controlling the technical equipment during a continuation of the production batch-run, by using the parameter as control parameter.

Abstract: A method of hierarchical machine learning includes receiving a topology model having information on hierarchical relations between components of the industrial plant, determining a representation hierarchy comprising a plurality of levels, wherein each representation on a higher level represents a group of representations on a lower level, wherein the representations comprise a machine learning model, and training an output machine learning model using the determined hierarchical representations.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for automating the development of industrial machine learning applications includes one or more sub-methods that, depending on the industrial machine learning problem, may be executed iteratively. These sub-methods include at least one of a method to automate the data cleaning in training and later application of machine learning models, a method to label time series (in particular signal data) with help of other timestamp records, feature engineering with the help of process mining, and automated hyper-parameter tuning for data segmentation and classification.

Abstract: An apparatus for monitoring a switchgear includes: an input unit; a processing unit; and an output unit. The input unit is provides the processing unit with a monitor infra-red image of a switchgear. The processing unit implements a machine learning classifier algorithm to analyse the monitor infra-red image and determine if there is one or more anomalous hot spots in the switchgear. The machine learning classifier algorithm has been trained based on a plurality of different training images, the plurality of training images including a plurality of synthetic infra-red images generated by an image processing algorithm. The output unit outputs information relating to the one or more anomalous hot spots.
