Abstract: A method for training a prediction model includes obtaining training samples representing states of the process that do not cause the undesired event; obtaining based on a process model and a set of predetermined rules that stipulate states having an increased likelihood of the undesired event occurring; training samples representing states with an increased likelihood to cause the undesired event; providing samples to the to-be-trained prediction model to obtain a prediction of the likelihood for occurrence of the undesired event in a state of the process represented by the respective sample; rating a difference between the prediction and the label of the respective sample using a predetermined loss function; and optimizing parameters such that, when predictions are made, the rating by the loss function improves.

Abstract: A method includes acquiring state variables that characterize an operational state of an industrial plant; acquiring interaction events of a plant operator interacting with the distributed control system via a human-machine interface; determining based on the interaction events, and with state variables as input data, whether one or more interaction events are indicative of the plant operator executing a task that is not sufficiently covered by engineering of the distributed control system. When this determination is positive, mapping the input data to an amendment and/or augmentation for the engineering tool that has generated the application code.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of generating a training data set for training an artificial intelligence module includes providing first and second data sets, the first data set including first data elements indicative of a first operational condition, the second data set including second data elements indicative of a second operational condition that matches the first operational condition. The method further comprises determining a data transformation for transforming the first data elements into the second data elements; applying the data transformation to the first data elements and/or to further data elements of further data sets, thereby generating a transformed data set; and generating a training data set for training the AI module based on at least a part of the transformed data set.

Abstract: A system and method provides an impact list of affecting equipment elements that affect an industrial sub-process. The method comprises the steps of selecting, in a topology model, the sub-process, wherein the sub-process is an equipment element that is a part of an industrial plant or process, and wherein the topology model is a graph, whose nodes represent equipment elements and whose edges represent interconnections between the equipment elements; traversing the nodes of the topology model, wherein the traversing starts from the selected sub-process and uses a traversing strategy; and for each of the at least one equipment elements, if the equipment element affects the industrial sub-process by an affecting degree greater than a first predefined affecting degree, adding the equipment element to the impact list of affecting equipment elements.

Abstract: There is provided an explainer system for explaining an alarm raised by a machine learned model of an industrial automation system. The explainer system is configured to: receive model output from the machine learned model trained to predict anomalous behaviour in the industrial automation system and to raise the alarm; process the model output using at least one prediction explanation technique to identify at least one influential feature which contributed to the model output; use the identified at least one influential feature to extract contextual information from at least one machine-readable information source pertaining to the industrial automation system; and prepare the extracted contextual information for display to an operator of the industrial automation system, to enable the operator to select an appropriate action to take in response to the alarm for ensuring proper functioning of the industrial automation system.
