System Modeling Based on Transfer Learning

Transfer learning (TL) is a machine learning tool that focuses on storing knowledge gained while solving one problem and applying it to a different but related problem.

Process Monitoring Based on Bayesian Analysis

The Bayesian analysis facilitates the real-time update of the process status in a probabilistic view, which provides rich information/evidence for decision-making.
