TECHNICAL MONITORING AND DIAGNOSTICS: INDISPENSABLE ELEMENT OF INTELLIGENT MANUFACTURING SYSTEMS
Abstract
The application of pattern recognition techniques, expert systems, artificial neural networks, fuzzy systems and nowadays hybrid artificial intelligence techniques in manufacturing can be regarded as consecutive elements of a process started two decades ago. The paper outlines the most important steps of this process. Agent-based systems are highlighted as promising tools for managing complexity, changes and disturbances in production. Further integration of approaches is predicted.
