Despite technological advancements, chemical and process industries are still prone to accidents due to their complexity and hazardous installations. These accidents lead to significant losses that represent economic losses and most importantly human losses. Risk management is one of the appropriate tools to guarantee the safe operations of these plants. Risk analysis is an important part of risk management, it consists of different methods such as Fault tree, Bow-tie, and Bayesian network. The latter has been widely applied for risk analysis purposes due to its flexible and dynamic structure. Bayesian networks approaches have shown a significant increase in their application as shown by in the publication in this field. This paper summarizes the result of a literature review performed on Bayesian network approaches adopted to conduct risk assessments, safety and risk analyses. Different application domains are analysed (i.e. accident modelling, maintenance area, fault diagnosis) in chemical and process industries from the year 2006 to 2018. Furthermore, the advantages of different types of Bayesian networks are presented.

Benfriha, Abdennour -Ilyas, et al. 2020. “The impact of products exchange in multi-levels multi-products distribution network”. Second International Conference on Embedded & Distributed Systems (EDiS). Publisher's Version Abstract

In this paper we analyze a problem of inventory management in a multi-levels multi-products distribution network with three echelon, the studied system consists of a central warehouse and three distribution centers identified by their location zones where each center is connected to a wholesaler group that serve the retailers of his region, which in turn feeds the customers of the regions located in the Algerian territory. The aim of this study is to apply a collaboration between the different actors of the same level in a form of an exchange of products, the exchange can occurs only when the actual demand is being received, in order to study the impact of product exchanges in the distribution networks and its influence on the total costs of the logistics chain from the central warehouse to the delivery to the final customer.

Hadri, Abdelkader, Fayçal Belkaid, and Aimade-Eddine Bougloula. 2020. “Minimizing energy consumption in a Job Shop problem with unidirectional transport constraint”. 13th International Colloquium of Logistics and Supply Chain Management (LOGISTIQUA). Abstract

In this work, we introduce the objective of minimizing energy consumption in a job shop scheduling problem with unidirectional transport constraint. In this problem, it is planned to process a set of N jobs (parts) on four machines. The Movement of jobs between these machines is in a single direction that is mean all the parts follow the same direction of movement. Indeed, the energy consumption in this type of problem depends; on the one hand on the speed of the machines processing the jobs and on the other hand on the speed of the means of transport. To solve this optimization problem, we have proposed a metaheuristic method that allows us to find a better sequencing of jobs in order to minimize the cost generated by energy consumption. Several simulations have been studied and the results obtained demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

In this paper, we consider a parallel machine scheduling problem with non-renewable resources. Each job consumes several components and must be processed in one stage composed of identical parallel machines. Resources availability operations, jobs assignment and sequencing are considered and optimized simultaneously. In order to find an optimal solution, an exact method is applied to optimize the total completion time. Due to the problem complexity and prohibitive computational time to obtain an exact solution, a metaheuristic approach based genetic algorithm is proposed and several heuristics are adapted to solve it. Moreover, the impact of non-renewable resources procurement methods on production scheduling is analyzed. The system performances are evaluated in terms of measures such as the solution quality and the execution time. The simulation results show that the proposed genetic algorithm gives the same results as the exact method for small instances and performs the best compared to heuristics for medium and large instances.

Aitouche, Samia, et al. 2020. “A Scientometric Framework: Application for Knowledge Management (KM) in Industry Between 2014 and 2019”. The Twelfth International Conference on Information, Process, and Knowledge Management (eKNOW 2020). Publisher's Version Abstract

It is always difficult to identify the most recent works that have been published, especially those published in recent years, due to delays in putting publications online, citations indexe, etc. Scientometry offers to researchers various concepts, models and techniques that can be applied to knowledge management (KM) in order to explore its foundations, its state, its intellectual core, and its potential future development. To this end, we have developed a scientometric KM framework to calculate the scientometric indexes related to a query introduced in the Scopus database, to facilitate research and monitoring of productivity and collaboration between the authors of KM in particular and also the dissemination of knowledge. The works between 2014 and 2019 are taken, the industry of services was omitted. It might help the decision makers and researchers to optimize their time and efforts. We used Unified Modeling Language (UML) to translate the development ideas of the scientometric framework structure into diagrams, and Delphi 7 to calculate the indexes and ensure other operations of research (about: articles, their authors, conferences, etc). This framework is only valid for Excel files extracted from Scopus or similar format. Finally, the relation between KM and industry 4.0 was established on found articles in Scopus.

The era of Industry 4.0 has already begun, however, several improvements should be achieved concerning this revolution. Data mining is one of the modest and efficient tools. Based on a specific query entered in Scopus, related to Industry 4.0, data mining (DM) and logistics, selected documents were studied and analyzed. A brief background of Industry 4.0 and DM are presented. A generic analysis showed that the attentiveness for the cited subject area by countries, universities, authors and especially companies and manufacturers increased through the years. Content analysis reveals that the improvement in quality of the technologies used in manufacturing was noticed, concluding that DM would give Industry 4.0 a leap forward, yet research is dealing with several challenges.

Quo Vadis Machine Learning-Based Systems Condition Prognosis?—A Perspective

Benbouzid, Mohamed, and Tarek Berghout. 2023. “Quo Vadis Machine Learning-Based Systems Condition Prognosis?—A Perspective”. Electronics 12 (3) : 527. Publisher's Version Abstract

Data-driven prognostics and health management (PHM) is key to increasing the productivity of industrial processes through accurate maintenance planning. The increasing complexity of the systems themselves, in addition to cyber-physical connectivity, has brought too many challenges for the discipline. As a result, data complexity challenges have been pushed back to include more decentralized learning challenges. In this context, this perspective paper describes these challenges and provides future directions based on a relevant state-of-the-art review.

Lithium-ion Battery State of Health Prediction with a Robust Collaborative Augmented Hidden Layer Feedforward Neural Network Approach

Berghout, Tarek, et al. 2023. “Lithium-ion Battery State of Health Prediction with a Robust Collaborative Augmented Hidden Layer Feedforward Neural Network Approach”. IEEE Transactions on Transportation Electrification. Publisher's Version Abstract

Lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries play an important role in providing necessary energy when acting as a main or backup source of electricity. Indeed, the unavailability of battery aging discharge data in most real-world applications makes the State of Health (SoH) assessment very challenging. Alternatively, accelerated aging is therefore adopted to emulate the degradation process and to achieve an SoH estimate. However, accelerated aging generates limited deterioration patterns suffering from a higher level of complexity due to the non-linearity and non-stationarity imposed by harsh conditions. In this context, this paper aims to provide a predictive model capable of solving incomplete data problems by providing two main solutions for each of the problems of complexity and missing patterns, respectively. First, to overcome the problem of lack of patterns, a robust collaborative feature extractor (RCFE) is designed by collaborating between a set of improved restricted Boltzmann machines (I-RBMs) to be able to share learning knowledge among different locally trained I-RBMs to create a more generalized global extraction model. Second, a set of RCFEs is then evolved through a neural network with an augmented hidden layer (NAHL) to enhance the predictive ability by further exploring representation learning to overcome pattern complexity issues. The designed RCFE-NAHL is trained to predict SoH using constant current (CC) discharge characteristics by implying multiple characteristics recorded through the constant voltage (CV) charging process as indicators of health. The proposed SoH prediction approach performances are evaluated on a set of battery life cycles from the well-known NASA database. In this context, the achieved results clearly highlight the higher accuracy and robustness of the proposed learning model.

2DF-IDS: Decentralized and differentially private federated learning-based intrusion detection system for industrial IoT

Othmane, Friha, et al. 2023. “2DF-IDS: Decentralized and differentially private federated learning-based intrusion detection system for industrial IoT”. Computers & Security 127. Publisher's Version Abstract

Advanced technologies, such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI), underpin many of the innovations in Industry 4.0. However, the interconnectivity and open nature of such systems in smart industrial facilities can also be targeted and abused by malicious actors, which reinforces the importance of cyber security. In this paper, we present a secure, decentralized, and Differentially Private (DP) Federated Learning (FL)-based IDS (2DF-IDS), for securing smart industrial facilities. The proposed 2DF-IDS comprises three building blocks, namely: a key exchange protocol (for securing the communicated weights among all peers in the system), a differentially private gradient exchange scheme (achieve improved privacy of the FL approach), and a decentralized FL approach (that mitigates the single point of failure/attack risk associated with the aggregation server in the conventional FL approach). We evaluate our proposed system through detailed experiments using a real-world IoT/IIoT dataset, and the results show that the proposed 2DF-IDS system can identify different types of cyber attacks in an Industrial IoT system with high performance. For instance, the proposed system achieves comparable performance (94.37%) with the centralized learning approach (94.37%) and outperforms the FL-based approach (93.91%) in terms of accuracy. The proposed system is also shown to improve the overall performance by 12%, 13%, and 9% in terms of F1-score, recall, and precision, respectively, under strict privacy settings when compared to other competing FL-based IDS solutions.

Faulty Detection System Based on SPC and Machine Learning Techniques

Benrabah, Mohamed-Elamine, Ouahab Kadri, and Nadia-Kenza Mouss. 2023. “Faulty Detection System Based on SPC and Machine Learning Techniques”. Revue de l’Intelligence Artificielle : 969-977. Publisher's Version Abstract

Starting from a worrying observation, that companies have difficulties controlling the anomalies of their manufacturing processes, in order to have a better control over them, we have realized a case study on the practical data of the Fertial Complex to analyze the main parameters of the ammonia neutralization by nitric acid process. This article proposes a precise diagnostic of this process to detect dysfunction problems affecting the final product. We start with a general diagnosis of the process using the SPC method, this approach is considered an excellent way to monitor and improve the product quality and provides very useful observations that allowed us to detect the parameters that suffer from problems affecting the quality. After the discovery of the parameters incapable to produce the quality required by the standards, we applies two machine learning technologies dedicated to the type of data of these parameters for detected the anomaly, the first technique called The kernel connectivity-based outlier factor (COF) algorithm consists in recording for each object the degree of being an outlier, the second technique called the Isolation Forest, its principle is to establish a forest to facilitate the calculation and description. The results obtained were compared in order to choose which is the best algorithm to monitor and detect the problems of these parameters, we find that the COF method is more efficient than the isolation forest which leads us to rely on this technology in this kind of process in order to avoid passing a bad quality to the customer in future.

IoT-based food traceability system: Architecture, technologies, applications, and future trends

Mehannaoui, Raouf, Kinza-Nadia Mouss, and Karima Aksa. 2023. “IoT-based food traceability system: Architecture, technologies, applications, and future trends”. Food Control 145. Publisher's Version Abstract

An effective Food Traceability System (FTS) in a Food Supply Chain (FSC) should adequately provide all necessary information to the consumer(s), meet the requirements of the relevant agencies, and improve food safety as well as consumer confidence. New information and communication technologies are rapidly advancing, especially after the emergence of the Internet of Things (IoT). Consequently, new food traceability systems have become mainly based on IoT. Many studies have been conducted on food traceability. They mainly focused on the practical implementation and theoretical concepts. Accordingly, various definitions, technologies, and principles have been proposed. The “traceability” concept has been defined in several ways and each new definition has tried to generalize its previous ones. Nevertheless, no standard definition has been reached. Furthermore, the architecture of IoT-based food traceability systems has not yet been standardized. Similarly, used technologies in this field have not been yet well classified. This article presents an analysis of the existing definitions of food traceability, and thus proposes a new one that aims to be simpler, general, and encompassing than the previous ones. We also propose, through this article, a new architecture for IoT-based food traceability systems as well as a new classification of technologies used in this context. We do not miss discussing the applications of different technologies and future trends in the field of IoT-based food traceability systems. Mainly, an FTS can make use of three types of technologies: Identification and Monitoring Technologies (IMT), Communication Technologies (CT), and Data Management Technologies (DMT). Improving a food traceability system requires the use of the best new technologies. There is a variety of promising technologies today to enhance FTS, such as fifth-generation (5G) mobile communication systems and distributed ledger technology (DLT).
