Research foci

My main research project aims to automate parameter optimization of industrial machinery by including existing expert knowledge into advanced machine learning algorithms, such as Learning Classifier Systems, a family of evolutionary learning methods. Therefore, I am developing a new way of creating LCS models (that can be thought of as generalisations of decision trees) with the Supervised Rule-based Learning System (SupRB). In our case study, we try to implement our concepts in the context of plastic extrusion manufacturing. An important role in finding optimal parameter settings plays predicting the quality, that results from applying a given setting. However, operators, supervisors, process engineers and management do all request that these predictive models offer explainability, interpretability and transparency (ergo, be somewhat understandable to a human user).

?

  • evolutionary rule-based learning (supervised and reinforcement learning)
  • unsupervised deep learning for feature extraction (e.g. Autoencoders)
  • explainable AI (XAI)
  • socio-technical assistance systems
  • extrusion-based manufacturing
  • 3D printing / additive manufacturing
