Abstract

Many industrial plants are still using simple and popular tools such as spreadsheet applications to analyze complex and multi-variable problems, which do not take into account the probabilistic relations. Excessive time consumption to solve problems, productivity loss, unreliable results and dimensional constraints can be stated as typical limitations of these tools. To eliminate these drawbacks, ArcelorMittal has successfully developed a new methodology that extracts high level information within production database and uses unconventional statistical tools based on Bayesian Network (BN) Modeling for addressing production issues. ArcelorMittal’s VEGA facility has deployed internally this new approach to perform defect analysis in a more efficient and effective manner.
