How Machine Learning Can Improve Root Cause Analysis

March 29, 2018 | 11:00 am - 12:00 pm CDT

How Machine Learning Can Improve Root Cause Analysis

The only real certainty in large operations such as manufacturing is that unexpected events will happen. Identifying the cause of failures or problems with root cause analysis (RCA) is critical to maintaining reliable operations, as the only way to prevent future failures is by understanding how and why they occur.

Machine learning allows for better and more accurate RCA than ever before. By collecting and analyzing massive streams of data, machine learning can quickly and easily pinpoint the cause of events and provide recommendations on how best to prevent their reoccurrence. In this webinar, we will discuss:

  • The importance of RCA to manufacturing and industrial operations
  • Why machine learning is critical to efficient RCA
  • How machine learning-driven RCA works
