Research foci

My main research is to automate parameter optimisation of industrial machinery by including existing expert knowledge into advanced machine learning algorithms, such as Learning Classifier Systems, a family of evolutionary learning methods. 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.

 

  • evolutionary rule-based learning (supervised and reinforcement learning)
  • unsupervised deep learning for feature extraction
  • socio-technical assistance systems
  • extrusion-based manufacturing
  • 3D printing / additive manufacturing
