Zhang, Tianming (author), Yan, Gaowei (author), Li, Rong (author), Xiao, Shuyi (author), Pang, Y. (author)The industrially collected process data usually exhibit non-Gaussian and multi-mode characteristics. Due to sensor failures, irregular disturbances, and transmission problems, there are unavoidable outliers that make the data exhibit heavy-tailed characteristics. To this end, a variational auto-encoder regression method based on the mixture...journal article 2024
