Advances in Data Analytics for Manufacturing Quality Assurance

Dear Colleagues,

Data analytics, statistics, and machine learning play crucial roles in advanced manufacturing. In this Special Issue, we are looking for high-quality research papers relevant to data analytics for manufacturing quality assurance, including process monitoring, anomaly/defect detection, variation quantification, system/process optimization, and reliability analysis. Articles that establish new methodologies in these topics or provide interesting and innovative applications are immensely welcome. Reviews will also be considered, mainly those that may provide commentaries that lead to open perspectives of new methodologies and applications.

Submissions must be rigorous, clear, well-written in professional English, and accessible and appealing to a broad audience. There is no restriction on the length of the papers, nor the use of color figures and diagrams. However, if thought to be adequate, electronic files with software or computer codes, full details of calculations, and full descriptions of experimental procedures, lengthy datasets, or detailed proof that may be judged to be too lengthy to be inserted in the body of the paper may be added in the Appendix and/or supplementary materials.
