The novel physics-guided spatial-temporal data mining method that integrates external and internal causal attention mechanisms for drilling risk evaluation is proposed to address this issue. Firstly, a risk calibration method based on spatial-temporal sequence clustering is designed. This method dynamically calibrates drilling risks by mining subtle changes in sign data during drilling. Secondly, an expert experience extraction method based on the correlation of drilling risk signs and a fuzzy inference system is established. Kendall's tau is used to quantify the correlation between drilling risk signs. The fuzzy inference system is employed to convert fuzzy and difficult-to-quantify expert experience into computable and interpretable rules. In order to improve the flexibility and adaptability of the fuzzy inference system, an expert experience rules base is also constructed. Subsequently, a spatial-temporal data mining model integrating both external and internal causal attention mechanisms (STMIEICAM) is constructed. The external causal attention mechanism (ECAM) quantified the correlation between signs and risk. The internal causal attention mechanism (ICAM) improved the model's ability to capture and quantify the features of spatial-temporal sequences. Finally, the physical knowledge from the fuzzy inference system and well-site is embedded into the STMIEICAM model, forming a physics-guided spatial-temporal data mining model integrating both external and internal causal attention mechanisms (PG-STMIEICAM) that enables graded evaluation of drilling risks. The proposed method was applied to overflow risk evaluation in an oil field to validate its effectiveness. The results demonstrate that the method not only excels in uncovering hidden relationships within the data but also integrates expert knowledge, achieving accurate evaluation of drilling risks.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":55975,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Information Integration","volume":"42 ","pages":"Article 100701"},"PeriodicalIF":10.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142441646","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}

Although ASC solutions have been discussed and trialled over several years, they still lack well-established theoretical foundations. This paper addresses this research gap by presenting a formal definition of ASC along with its defining characteristics and auxiliary concepts.

To model intrapersonal uncertainty, interpersonal uncertainty and randomness in decision making assessments, this research study proposes a novel approach by integrating linear and non-linear type of fuzzy numbers with cloud model theory using novel technique of computing entropy of these fuzzy numbers. A novel mathematical model known as cloud fuzzy numbers is introduced using the concepts of fuzzy numbers and cloud theory. The self-evaluated relative weights of experts are computed using a non-linear optimization method which is based on maximum deviation method and Lagrange multipliers of cloud fuzzy numbers. The new cloud fuzzy numbers are then combined with CODAS (combinative distance based assessment) approach that is based on the largest Euclidean and Taxicab distances for the selection of suitable criteria. Firstly, the linguistics evaluations are converted into the fuzzy numbers and then cloud fuzzy numbers using formulae of expectation and entropy ensuring that the obtained interval cloud values follows a normal distribution. Secondly, the cloud fuzzy weighted arithmetic averaging operator is used to aggregate cloud fuzzy numbers using the self-evaluated fuzzy weights Thirdly, the assessment score is determined to rank the alternatives by computing the distance between normalized weighted matrix and the negative ideal solution. Finally, a case study is discussed for the selection of best renewable energy resource in Turkey to elaborate the significance of the proposed research.

To begin with, latency and energy consumption are important indicators for evaluating the offloading effect. A pre-allocation algorithm based on user latency tolerance is proposed to dynamically adjust the latency-energy consumption weighting factor to optimize system resource allocation for real-time adjustment of offloading decisions. Second, the Group Role Assignment of Agent Role Conflicts (GRACAR) model based on E-CARGO is extended, along with a dynamic weighting of the GRACAR (GRACAR-DW) model and formal modeling. By introducing resource contention constraints, the resource contention caused by excessive task data offloading to the same MEC server is proactively mitigated.

The cause of this complexity is the little or no standardization between the different production cycles that must be executed, as each cycle is of the OKP type. In addition, Intra-logistics operations represent a key factor in ETO PPC, since each piece of work-in-process or sub-assembly can be extremely large, heavy or complicated of handling. Then, ETO systems involve heterogenous production and intra-logistics processes, where the associated information is fragmented and diverse.
