Real-Time Analysis of Industrial Data Using the Unsupervised Hierarchical Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise Method in Monitoring the Welding Process in a Robotic Cell

Abstract

The application of modern machine learning methods in industrial settings is a relatively new challenge and remains in the early stages of development. Current computational power enables the processing of vast numbers of production parameters in real time. This article presents a practical analysis of the welding process in a robotic cell using the unsupervised HDBSCAN machine learning algorithm, highlighting its advantages over the classical k-means algorithm. This paper also addresses the problem of predicting and monitoring undesirable situations and proposes the use of the real-time graphical representation of noisy data as a particularly effective solution for managing such issues.
