This presentation provides an overview of industry applications of machine learning and predictive analytics in the automotive, aviation, chemical, manufacturing, pharmaceutical, steel, and other industries covering the following use cases:

  • Predictive Maintenance: Predicting and Preventing Machine Failures before they happen.
  • Prediction, Prevention, and Resolution of Critical Situations in Continuous Production Processes.
  • Product Quality Prediction in early stages of the production process.
  • Optimization of Production Processes.
  • Optimization of Mixture of Materials or Ingredients.
  • Assembly Time and Assembly Plan Prediction for New Product Designs.
  • Demand Forecasting and Price Forecasting.
  • Web Mining and Information Extraction for Semi-Automation of Price Quote Generation and Purchase Processes.
  • Web Mining and Information Extraction for Market Intelligence, Trend Monitoring, and Competitive Intelligence.
  • Semi-Automated Data Augmentation from Internal and External Data Sources.

These use cases cover both, industry deployments as well as new application use cases from the RapidMiner Research Lab.
