Three ways that AI can offer value in plants.
We’ve been working on solving a variety of customer issues. Of the issues that couldn’t be solved with conventional analysis
methods, we were able to solve 50 by applying AI. We learned that in plants AI can offer value in the following three ways.

Detection
Plant c
-Quickly detects Anomality in equipment-
A shaft breakage occurred in a reducer that monitored trends with a wireless vibration sensor (Sushi Sensor). The graph
below shows acceleration, speed, and surface temperature data, and the results of AI analysis based on those data. The
moving average of health index calculated by AI moved from the normal to abnormal range three weeks before a failure.
You can see that it captured the “Anomality” that were signs of abnormality earlier than the sensor data trend changes. By
combining the Sushi Sensor with the AI, undesired state can be notiﬁed based on the equipment's vibration and surface
temperature data, which enables you to predictively detect equipment abnormality and to take prior actions for equipment
maintenance.

The dream of an AI that can control your plant is becoming a reality.
-Plant control with AI and reinforcement learning-
Yokogawa has developed the technology to use AI to directly control equipment through reinforcement learning.
Reinforcement learning is one type of machine learning in which AI learns from its own trial and error. The key feature of
Yokogawa’s reinforcement learning technology making it so practical is that it can learn with a small number of trials.
Issue with a complex process

Indicated values are destabilized due to disturbances, resulting in loss of raw materials.
Skilled workers have difficulty passing on control adjustment technology, requiring time and labor.
Destabilization of process and decrease in quality due to unfamiliar control methods.
Features of Yokogawa Electric’s reinforcement learning

The AI teaches itself, and doesn’t require large amounts of teaching data.
Learns with a small number of trials.
Optimized with reinforcement learning technology specialized for the control field.
Application example:
AI control test equipment by a Three Tank Level Control System

Real-world sites often require complex control mechanisms.
