讲座摘要：Modern process industry is awash with large amount of data. Extraction of information and knowledge discovery from data, particularly fromday by day routine process operating data, is especially challenging. There arenumerous issues such as data nonlinearity, non-Gaussian, high dimensionality, collinearity,multiple mode, outlier, missing measurement etc that must be considered duringthe information extraction process. This presentation will discuss state-of-the-artdevelopment of big data analytics to deal with these issues and to developstatistical models from data. The concept of big data analytics is illustratedby applications to data based image processing.
