讲座摘要：

In this talk, a common production problem, in which frequent manufacturing equipment breakdowns and restarts cause low production efficiency, is presented. To predict a future breakdown time, we develop an early warning system that integrates Gaussian process (GP) modeling, change-point detection, online process monitoring, and remaining useful life prediction techniques. I will first introduce GP as a machine-learning tool for regression and classification tasks and then argue the values of derivative GP in change-point detection. To solve a practical engineering problem, we also employ the automatic relevance determination method for reducing feature dimensions. Finally, with a properly designed process monitoring tool, an early warning signal before equipment breakdown can be issued and the remaining equipment working time can be forecasted.
