A manufacturing system is disclosed herein. The manufacturing system includes one or more stations, a monitoring platform, and a control module. Each station of the one or more stations is configured to perform at least one step in a multi-step manufacturing process for a component. The monitoring platform is configured to monitor progression of the component throughout the multi-step manufacturing process. The control module is configured to dynamically adjust processing parameters of each step of the multi-step manufacturing process to achieve a desired final quality metric for the component.

Systems, methods, and media for manufacturing processes

A computing system identifies a trajectory example generated by a human operator. The trajectory example includes trajectory information of the human operator while performing a task to be learned by a control system of the computing system. Based on the trajectory example, the computing system trains the control system to perform the task exemplified in the trajectory example. Training the control system includes generating an output trajectory of a robot performing the task. The computing system identifies an updated trajectory example generated by the human operator based on the trajectory example and the output trajectory of the robot performing the task. Based on the updated trajectory example, the computing system continues to train the control system to perform the task exemplified in the updated trajectory example.

Imitation learning in a manufacturing environment

Aspects of the disclosed technology provide a computational model that utilizes machine learning for detecting errors during a manual assembly process and determining a sequence of steps to complete the manual assembly process in order to mitigate the detected errors. In some implementations, the disclosed technology evaluates a target object at a step of an assembly process where an error is detected to a nominal object to obtain a comparison. Based on this comparison, a sequence of steps for completion of the assembly process of the target object is obtained. The assembly instructions for creating the target object are adjusted based on this sequence of steps.

Assembly error correction for assembly lines

Aspects of the disclosed technology provide an Artificial Intelligence Process Control (AIPC) for automatically detecting errors in a manufacturing workflow of an assembly line process, and performing error mitigation through the update of instructions or guidance given to assembly operators at various stations. In some implementations, the disclosed technology utilizes one or more machine-learning models to perform error detection and/or propagate instructions/assembly modifications necessary to rectify detected errors or to improve the product of manufacture.
