题 目: Data Mining for Prognostics(数据挖掘与预警技术) 报告人:Dr. Chunsheng Yang, National Research Council (NRC), Canada 时 间:2008年9月25日(周四)上午 10:00 地 点:蒙民伟楼404会议室 Abstract: Data-driven prognostics is an emerging application of data mining to real-worl d problems such as system health management. It has been attracting much atten tion from researchers in the area of sensor, reliability, data mining and so o n. The main task of prognostics is to predict the likelihood of a failure and estimate the remaining lifetime (or time to failure). Data-driven prognostics is to develop predictive models from large-scale historic operational and main tenance data using the techniques from data mining and machine learning. For t his purpose, we have developed a KDD methodology to build the prognostic model s which are able to predict the failure and estimate time to failure. In this talk, we will introduce the KDD methodology in details by addressing several c hallenging issues: model building, model evaluation and time to failure predic tion. We will also present some results obtained from a real-world applicatio n--prognostics of train wheel by demonstrating the deployed prognostic systems . Dr. Chunsheng Yang is a Senior Research Officer with the Knowledge Discovery G roup at the Institute for Information Technology of the National Research Coun cil Canada (NRC-IIT). He received a Ph.D. from National Hiroshima University, Japan, 1995. He worked with Fujitsu Inc., Japan as a Senior Engineer from 1995 to 1998. His research interests include data mining for prognostics, case-bas ed reasoning for diagnostics and multi-agent-based systems for group decision- making. He serves as a guest editor for the International Journal of Applied I ntelligence, and is a Program Co-Chair for the 17th International Conference o n Industry and Engineering Applications of Artificial Intelligence and Expert Systems (IEA/AIE), an Industrial Track Program Committee Member of ACM SIGKDD 07 and ACM SIGKDD 05. |
