COGNITWIN will set a new standard for the design, development and operation of the European process industry by introducing a platform for virtual component-based architecture that integrates IoT, Big data, AI, smart sensors, machine learning and communication technologies, all connected to a novel paradigm of self-learning hybrid models with proactive cognitive capabilities.
While the concepts of digitalisation and Industry 4.0 are making rapid inroads into the European manufacturing sector, there are several aspects that can be still incorporated into the system to strengthen the goal of optimal process operations. One such aspect to the digitalisation vision is the "cognitive element", where the process plants can learn from pattern recognition in historical data and adapt to changes in the process, simultaneously being able to predict unwanted events in the operation before they happen. We aim to add the cognitive elements to the existing process control systems and thus enabling their capability to self-organise and offer solutions to unpredicted behaviours.
Our strategic, high-level objective is to establish the fully digitalized concept of self-learning and proactive next generation of Digital Twins, which operate in the hybrid world and can i) recognize, forecast and communicate less optimal process behaviour well before these occur and ii) adjust itself in order to keep the process continuously close to or at optimum.
The project runs until August 2022 with an overall budget of over 8.5 million euros.
