Implementation of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in Manufacturing

Abstract

Manufacturing systems nowadays are becoming more complex, dynamic and interconnected. Manufacturing operations confront challenges from highly nonlinear and stochastic activities due to the numerous uncertainties and interdependencies that exist. Recent developments in artificial intelligence (AI), particularly machine learning (ML) have established considerable technological capabilities to transform the manufacturing industry with advanced analytics tools for processing enormous amounts of manufacturing production data. This study summarizes the incisive concept of machine learning and its importance in the manufacturing industry. The research further covers a systematic review of several ML systems that have been enacted in the manufacturing industry and production procedure. In addition, the study also discusses some of the major challenges encountered while implementing machine learning in the manufacturing industry and highlighted some of the significant tasks achieved by machine learning technologies.
