Machine Intelligence in Mechanical Engineering (Paperback)

Machine Intelligence in Mechanical Engineering explains the latest applications of machine intelligence and data-driven decision-making in mechanical engineering industries. By providing introductory theory, trouble-shooting case studies, detailed algorithms and implementation instructions, this interdisciplinary book will help readers explore additional applications in their own fields. Those with a mechanical background will learn the important tasks related to preprocessing of datasets, feature extraction, verification and validation of machine learning models which unlock these new methods.

Machine Intelligence is currently a key topic in industrial automation, enabling machines to solve complex engineering tasks and driving efficiencies in the smart production line. Smart preventative maintenance systems can prevent machine downtime, smart monitoring and control can produce more effective workflows with less human intervention.

• Provides detailed case studies of how machine intelligence has been used in mechanical engineering applications
• Includes a basic introduction to machine learning algorithms and their implementation
• Addresses innovative applications of AR/VR technology in mechanical engineering
