Industrial process monitoring by means of recurrent neural networks and Self Organizing Maps
Industrial manufacturing plants often suffer from reliability problems during their day-to-day operations which
have the potential for causing a great impact on the effectiveness and performance of the overall process and the
sub-processes involved. Time-series forecasting of critical industrial signals presents itself as a way to reduce this
impact by extracting knowledge regarding the internal dynamics of the process and advice any process deviations
before it affects the productive process. In this paper, a novel industrial condition monitoring approach based on the
combination of Self Organizing Maps for operating point codification and Recurrent Neural Networks for critical signal
modeling is proposed. The combination of both methods presents a strong synergy, the information of the operating
condition given by the interpretation of the maps helps the model to improve generalization, one of the drawbacks of
recurrent networks, while assuring high accuracy and precision rates. Finally, the complete methodology, in terms of
performance and effectiveness is validated experimentally with real data from a copper rod industrial plant.Postprint (published version
Recurrent Segmentation for Variable Computational Budgets
State-of-the-art systems for semantic image segmentation use feed-forward
pipelines with fixed computational costs. Building an image segmentation system
that works across a range of computational budgets is challenging and
time-intensive as new architectures must be designed and trained for every
computational setting. To address this problem we develop a recurrent neural
network that successively improves prediction quality with each iteration.
Importantly, the RNN may be deployed across a range of computational budgets by
merely running the model for a variable number of iterations. We find that this
architecture is uniquely suited for efficiently segmenting videos. By
exploiting the segmentation of past frames, the RNN can perform video
segmentation at similar quality but reduced computational cost compared to
state-of-the-art image segmentation methods. When applied to static images in
the PASCAL VOC 2012 and Cityscapes segmentation datasets, the RNN traces out a
speed-accuracy curve that saturates near the performance of state-of-the-art
segmentation methods
