Mass production recall solutions
•
Recalls are necessary for a number of
reasons, today's heavy industries products
are incredibly complex with many
interacting electronic systems
•
The development cycles are extremely
compressed
•
With such a short gestation period, certain
interactions or problems can go undetected
in the development process of a new
vehicle
Current process
Current system inputs
Manufacturer
reports a problem
Product recall
issued!
Customer
reports a problem
Current process
could be costly!
Proposed concept
•
Rough set theory proposes a formal framework for the automated transformation of data into
knowledge
•
This method shows that the principles for learning by examples can be formulated in the basis of this
theory
•
An important result from the theory is that it simplifies the search for dominating attributes leading to
specific properties, or just rules pending in the data
•
Rough Set Theory has shown its fruitfulness in a variety of data mining areas (information retrieval,
decision support, machine learning, and knowledge based systems)
•
Concept is proven in may fields like medical data analysis and aircraft pilot performance evaluation

An important result from the theory is that it simplifies the search for dominating attributes leading to
