This exciting project combines the expertise of IBM in the development of algorithms for optimisation and the use of automated model generation and discrimination by researchers at UCL with the experimental automation expertise within the Institute of Process Research and Development at Leeds and the use of advanced hydrothermal reactors developed at the University of Nottingham. This research capability will be used to develop new algorithms for machine learning based generation of chemical process design knowledge and coupling these algorithms to a cyber platform for automated experimentation. The combined cyber-physical system will be validated via in-depth case studies related to current pharmaceutical manufacturing challenges.This project aims to develop an Industry 4.0 approach revolutionising the transfer from laboratory to production using advanced data-rich and cognitive computing technologies. We will develop new algorithms based on BayesianOptimisation and evolving Kinetic Motifs that merge data analysis and the generation of further experiments. Cloud based machine learning services (hubs) will generate experiment setpoints delivered through the cloud to automated laboratory platforms (LabBots). A key novelty is that the analysis services can receive and analyse results, and post further experiments to the LabBots, thus generating a data generation - data analysis closed-loop. This enables the application of machine learning to chemical development: the system will continuously learn, increasing in confidence and knowledge over time, from previous iterations.Objectives:- Develop optimisation algorithms that combine global and local search methodologies for rapid optimisation and definition of operating space- Develop simulation tools for evaluation of optimisation algorithms on a variety of chemical kinetic profiles- Perform case studies on real chemical systems demonstrating enhancements via benchmarking against traditional approaches- Develop optimisation routines for non-reactive processes such as liquid-liquid separation and chromatographyThis studentship will work alongside PDRAs from the Cognitive Chemical Manufacture grant:http://gow.epsrc.ac.uk/NGBOViewGrant.aspx?GrantRef=EP/R032807/1

这个令人兴奋的项目结合了IBM在优化算法开发方面的专业知识，以及UCL研究人员使用自动化模型生成和歧视的专业知识，以及利兹过程研究与开发研究所的实验自动化专业知识，以及使用诺丁汉大学开发的先进水热反应器。这种研究能力将用于开发基于机器学习的化学工艺设计知识生成的新算法，并将这些算法与自动化实验的网络平台相结合。该项目旨在开发一种工业4.0方法，使用先进的数据丰富和认知计算技术，彻底改变从实验室到生产的转移。我们将开发基于贝叶斯优化和不断发展的动力学基序的新算法，这些算法将数据分析和进一步实验的生成合并在一起。基于云的机器学习服务（中心）将生成实验设定点，通过云交付给自动化实验室平台（LabBots）。一个关键的新奇在于，分析服务可以接收和分析结果，并将进一步的实验发布到LabBots，从而生成数据生成-数据分析闭环。这使得机器学习能够应用于化学开发：系统将不断学习，随着时间的推移，从以前的迭代中增加信心和知识。目标：- 开发优化算法，结合联合收割机全局和局部搜索方法，用于快速优化和定义操作空间-开发模拟工具，用于评估各种化学动力学曲线上的优化算法-对真实的化学系统进行案例研究，通过对传统方法进行基准测试来展示增强效果-为非切割系统开发优化程序反应过程，如液-液分离和色谱这个学生将与认知化学制造资助的PDRA一起工作：http://gow.epsrc.ac.uk/NGBOViewGrant.aspx?
