Latest Application of Artificial Intelligence in Industrial Process Modelling and Optimization

Dear Colleagues,

As a revolutionary technology, artificial intelligence (AI) has shown great potential in industrial process modelling and optimization, and the application of explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) further strengthens its practicability in industrial scenarios. It can reduce the reliance on prior knowledge via autonomous process learning, improve modelling accuracy, optimize control strategies for better stability and performance, adapt to dynamic complex environments, and achieve intelligent monitoring and diagnosis through data analysis to ensure production safety and efficiency. This Special Issue focuses on the in-depth exploration of AI and XAI applications in this field, aiming to promote innovative research and realize the synergistic improvement of efficiency, safety and sustainability in various industrial processes.
