Title: Yutaka Abe: Inventor in Industrial Control and Monitoring

Introduction

Yutaka Abe is an inventor based in Ritto, Japan, whose patent work includes industrial control systems, programmable logic controllers (PLCs), and methods for detecting abnormalities. He is associated with Omron Corporation and has 5 patents.

Latest Patents

Abe’s recent patent work includes “Emulation of a Control System and Control Method for Abnormality Detection Parameter Verification.” The invention describes a control system that collects data about a controlled target, generates feature quantities from that data, and detects abnormalities using parameters informed by machine learning. An information-processing device can emulate the monitoring process using data from the control device, supporting verification of abnormality-detection parameters.

Another patent, “Control Device, Control System, Control Method for Control Device, and Control Method for Control System,” addresses compatibility checks when user configuration data or firmware is written to a PLC. The PLC uses a combination table stored on a recording medium to determine whether the new data is suitable for use with the firmware or configuration data already stored in the device.
