The research activities in the area of “Analysis Modules and Configuration” are one of four major focus topics in the AKKORD project. The following figure additionally locates the research topic in the overall context of the project.

In the field of analysis modules and configuration aspects, RapidMiner GmbH and the Institute of Production Systems (IPS) at TU Dortmund University are leading the work on the required partial solutions of the analysis modules for a reference kit for value-creating, competence-oriented collaboration in dynamic value networks. By applying supervised and unsupervised learning methods as well as necessary preprocessing steps in the applied use cases of VolkswagenMieleERCO, (Brabant & Lehnert) and DFKI, practice-relevant solutions are developed. The work is supported by ARENDPDTec and VPE, which are particularly focused on configuration aspects for integration in the Reference Toolkit. On the AKKORD use case websites, the use case implementations are described in more detail and the development of the solutins is presented.

Additional developments are being sought so that data analyses can also be used for SMEs in value networks at a reasonable time and effort:

  • By establishing a configuration concept for automated model building and data analysis, uniform analysis modules are to be developed and made usable.
  • The development of a module for the individualizable, automated generation of analysis dashboards is intended to enable individualizable solutions for practical in-field deployment.
  • With the help of a user-oriented configuration assistant for data analysis, use case-dependent preconfigurations for modular analyses are to be made.

With the help of these developments, the “Analysis Modules and Configuration” serves as a key area for the implementation of the overarching Reference Toolkit.

This news article provides a summarizing overview of the planned Reference Toolkit as well as the four research topics. More detailed information can be found in the opening publication of the research project.
