Call for Papers

Submit Paper » Background Understanding the data and reaching accurate conclusions are of paramount importance in the present era of Big Data. Machine learning has been widely used in academia and industry to analyze voluminous and intricate datasets to uncover hidden patterns and reach incisive insights. Whilst machine learning approaches have extraordinary potential and are increasingly employed to aid in various complicated tasks, their results are not wholly reliable due to the challenges introduced by data uncertainty (aleatory uncertainty) and model uncertainty (epistemic uncertainty)....

Submit Paper » In recent decades, fault diagnostics and failure prognostics have demonstrated their great potential for health monitoring and risk management of complex engineering systems, including smart factories, power plants, space systems, and heavy equipment. The credibility and applicability of fault diagnostics and failure prognostics, however, are significantly affected by various uncertainties, such as model uncertainty, data uncertainty, process uncertainty, environmental uncertainty, and the inherent uncertainty of engineered systems....
