Abstract

This paper presents the preliminary results of a datamining study of a production line involving hundreds ofvariables related to mechanical, chemical, electrical andmagnetic processes involved in manufacturing coatedglass. The study was performed using two nonlinear,nonparametric approaches, namely neural network andCART, to model the relationship between the qualities ofthe coating and machine readings. Furthermore, neuralnetwork sensitivity analysis and CART variable rankingswere used to gain insight into the coating process. Ourinitial results show the promise of data mining techniquesto improve the production.
