CPC G05B 19/4155 (2013.01) [G05B 2219/35135 (2013.01)] | 20 Claims |
1. A method of predicting sequence for a manufacturing process to assemble a product, the method comprising:
obtaining a target plan for the manufacturing process, wherein the target plan defines a process segment to be performed during the manufacturing process, wherein the process segment is defined by a plurality of a process steps provided in a sequential order for performing the process segment;
retrieving a plurality of surrogate process segments based on the target plan, wherein the plurality of surrogate process segments are selected from among a plurality of historical process segments;
determining, for each surrogate process segment from the plurality of surrogate process segments, a segment similarity value based on at least one of a textual similarity and a sequence similarity between the surrogate process segment and the process segment of the target plan; and
generating a target process defining a process sequence for performing the manufacturing process based on the segment similarity values of the plurality of surrogate process segments and a sequence inference model.
