Spatio-Temporal Learning and Monitoring for Complex Dynamic Processes with Irregular Data

by Chunhui Zhao PhD, Wanke Yu PhD

Overview

Spatio-Temporal Learning Using Irregular Data for Complex Dynamic Processes introduces learning, modeling, and monitoring methods for highly complex dynamic processes with irregular data. Two classes of robust modeling methods are highlighted, including low-rank characteristic of matrices and heavy-tailed characteristic of distributions. In this class, the missing data, ambient noise, and outlier problems are solved using low-rank matrix complement for monitoring model development. Secondly, the Laplace distribution is explored, which is adopted to measure the process uncertainty to develop robust monitoring models.

The book not only discusses the complex models but also their real-world applications in industry.
