QuadC captures spatial dependencies across channels through convolutions on hidden vectors. Evaluated on the real-world industrial benchmark SKAB, BiConED improves feature extraction for underrepresented classes, achieving a 26% increase in F1 score, a 67.72% reduction in False Alarm Rate (FAR), and a 57.25% decrease in Missed Alarm Rate (MAR) compared to models without the proposed contrasts. Even with limited labeled data, BiConED maintains a FAR below 1% and recovers up to 85% of the F1 score without resampling, demonstrating its robustness in imbalanced IIoT environments.","PeriodicalId":55975,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Information Integration","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":15.7,"publicationDate":"2025-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143049837","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study proposes using a Backpropagation neural network (BPNN) to model manufacturing processes, leveraging its ability to capture complex and nonlinear relationships. Additionally, integrating statistical inference techniques from Generalized Linear Models (GLM) with the neural network is suggested. This integration combines the predictive capabilities of the BPNN with the statistical tools of GLMs, enhancing result interpretability and analysis accuracy. The proposed approach was applied to two manufacturing processes. In the die-casting process, the BPNN with a logit function showed a lower deviance (0.0399) compared to the probit model (0.0875) and a greater deviance difference (6.1280) with a <ce:italic>p</ce:italic>-value of 0.0201. Confidence intervals confirmed the significance of these results. Metal temperature and solidification time were significant predictors, with weights of -1.0375 and -0.9880, respectively. In the machining process, the BPNN model with the probit function had a lower deviance (0.0140) compared to the logit model (0.0175) and a slight precision advantage with a deviance difference of 3.9325 and a p-value of 0.0473. Parameters S1 and S2 had significant effects with weights of 72.671 and -54.397, respectively. This approach allows for selecting optimal activation functions for each process, improving efficiency and quality control in manufacturing.","PeriodicalId":55975,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Information Integration","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":15.7,"publicationDate":"2025-01-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143049838","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To compute biocompatibility and biodegradability of biomedical materials in hip prosthesis, this research paper develops a multi-criteria group decision making technique to encompass all aspects of an issue under consideration within a decision-making team’s governance. The suggested multi-criteria decision making outranking technique combined with spherical fuzzy rough approach excels in a unique way by encapsulating the capabilities to handle pseudo criteria and compare the considered options by referring to the indifference, strong and weak preference relation. Moreover, the proposed outranking technique effectively employs spherical fuzzy rough numbers to minimize subjective bias while addressing varying degrees of uncertainty. The practical implication of the proposed technique is addressed by considering the case study of material selection in hip prosthesis. Finally, the validity of the proposed technique is confirmed by comparing it with existing methods, and the selection of the same best alternative across all techniques reinforces its credibility.","PeriodicalId":55975,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Information Integration","volume":"21 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":15.7,"publicationDate":"2025-01-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142968076","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, this paper proposes a data management method based on Industrial Dataspace (IDS), constructs a dataspace architecture for the automotive supply chain (DS-ASC). On this basis, proposes a method for data relationship mining and trusted data sharing that considers implicit associations among ASC members. The improved BiLSTM model promotes the understanding of data, and the improved DPoS algorithm reduces the risk of data leakage. Our method is validated in the practical application of a supply chain master enterprise, and the experiments show that the method proposed in this paper is able to effectively improve the accuracy of mining data association relationship.

This includes operations such as manual assembly, which can be executed with high efficiency and a focus on error-avoidance.

This includes aspects such as context awareness, visual instructions, environment interaction, human factor considerations, and the impact on real-world AR assembly deployment. These factors are particularly relevant to current human-centric manufacturing practices in Industry 5.0. Since 2012, the release of Google Glass and advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) have significantly expanded actual AR deployments. Consequently, this review takes 2012 as the starting point for the literature collection. The objective of this article is to provide an overview of the context-aware cognitive AR (CA-CAR) assembly works published between 2012 and 2023. We aim to identify and classify the necessary context modules for CA-CAR assembly, and analyze potential technical barriers to their shop floor adaptation.

Thus, implementing appropriate recovery practices has developed. The existing challenges in the forward and reverse integration flow motivate leaders to submit a third-party logistics service provider (3PL) as an appropriate option for outsourcing activities. As a result, an inventive closed-loop supply chain (CLSC) network is necessary. A multiple objective, product, and period mathematical model is proposed to develop the CLSC under 3PL management in the tire industry. The data envelopment analysis (DEA) method is applied to choose a better set of manufacturers to coordinate with 3PL. The motivating pricing approach is also considered for appropriate recovery practices, and resiliency was investigated against disruption at crucial levels. This model aims to minimize the costs of diverse processes over scrap products and energy consumption and reach a sufficient level of responsiveness to customers. For solving the multi-objective model, the augmented ε-constraint (AUGMECON2) method leads to Pareto-optimal solutions. The results show that 3PLs improve the supply chain (SC) procedure and increase the responsiveness to customer demand. Also, by planning to increase product recycling, it is possible to save money when purchasing raw materials from suppliers.","PeriodicalId":55975,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Information Integration","volume":"125 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":15.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142929357","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Numerous Pythagorean fuzzy correlation coefficient methods (PFCCMs) have been constructed using Pearson’s correlation coefficient technique. In this study, a new PFCCM is constructed based on Spearman’s correlation coefficient to eliminate all possible uncertainties that may impede decision-makers from making a dependable selection. To validate the construction of a new PFCCM, we examine the existing PFCCMs and pinpoint their inadequacies. Among the extant PFCCMs, one approach was constructed through Spearman’s correlation coefficient but it does not takes into cognizance the properties of the PFSs. In addition, it sometimes fails the axiomatic conditions of the PFCC, and yields invalid result for PFSs that are defined on a singleton set. These setbacks justify the construction of a new Spearman’s correlation coefficient-like PFCCM, which is shown to overcome the limitations of the extant PFCCMs. Equally, the strength of the new PFCCM is verified by some theoretical results, and it fulfills the conditions of PFCC. Additionally, the use of the novel PFCCM is discussed in the solution of supplier selection problems to eliminate supplier selection ambiguity through the multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) approach. To unarguably show the intrinsic worth of the new PFCCM, the effectiveness of the new PFCCM is compared with the existing PFCCMs and it is observed that the new PFCCM is reliable, consistent and precise, and in the same way satisfies the axioms of the PFCC. In particular, the existing Spearman’s PFCCM yields <mml:math altimg=\"si1.svg\" display=\"inline\"><mml:mi>∞</mml:mi></mml:math> in Example 4, while the new PFCCM produces 0.7603, which justifies the construction of a new Spearman’s PFCCM.
