ABSTRACT

Uncertainty evaluation is essential in all applications that depend on measurement, as it ensures traceability and guarantees the accuracy and reliability of measurement results are understood. In Industry 4.0, the application of smart sensors and IoT technology enables industrial robots to complete tasks which used to be carried out by humans, such as data fusion, conditional monitoring and decision making. It is understandable that whenever a decision is taken based on measurement, the issue of uncertainty quantification becomes more critical than ever. In a production cycle, uncertainty contributes to every phase of the signal processing chain, starting from data sampling through data analysis until reaching the last step of decision making. The recent growing popularity of advanced clustering and machine learning methods, as well as the potential benefits of real-time processing and distributed processing techniques, have triggered a new wave of interest in uncertainty quantification and techniques for uncertainty propagation. In this special session, research works related to uncertainty evaluation for all phases in industrial applications are welcome.
