CONTENT SUMMARY

INTRODUCTION

This course is designed to provide an exclusive insight for beginners on how machine learning can be effectively applied for descriptive (fault detection), diagnostic (fault classification) and predictive (prediction) analytics in chemical process systems. The practicality of the course is emphasized through the use of a distillation column example, which is one of the most commonly found unit operations in industrial processing plants.

COURSE CONTENT

Machine Learning Overview (Module 1)

  • Why ML?
  • General Application
  • ML vs classic code 
  • Model overview
  • Steps in ML (Importing data to deploying model)
  • How to evaluate ML Model (R2, MSE, RMSE, Confusion Matrix, Accuracy Paradox for CLASSIFICATION)

Machine Learning for Descriptive Analytics (Module 2)

  • Principal Component Analysis
  • Fault Detection and Identification
  • Hands on exercise and problem-solving: Distillation Column Case Study

Machine Learning for Diagnostic and Predictive Analytics (Module 3) 

  • Python Basic Syntax and Modules ((NumPy, Pandas, Matplotlib, Scikit-Learn, XGBoost))
  • Model development
    • Training and Testing
    • Feature Selection (if necessary)
    • Hyperparameter Tuning
  • Hands on exercise and problem-solving: Distillation Column Case Study 

OBJECTIVES

Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:

  • To provide beginners an easy to follow guide on familiarizing themselves with machine learning tools.
  • To apply Machine Learning tools in industrial chemical processes for descriptive (what happened), diagnostic (why it happened) and predictive (what will happen) analytics.


WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

  • Undergraduate, Post-graduate students and researchers
  • Plant Operation Engineers
  • Process Engineer
