US Patent Issued to PAUL WURTH on June 23 for "Generating virtual sensors for use in industrial machines" (Luxembourger Inventor)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., July 15 -- United States Patent no. 12,664,428, issued on June 23, was assigned to PAUL WURTH S.A. (Luxembourg).

"Generating virtual sensors for use in industrial machines" was invented by Cedric Schockaert (Wiltz, Luxembourg).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "An industrial machine (123) may not have a sensor for a particular parameter, so that a computer uses a neural network (473) to virtualize the missing sensor. The computer trains the neural network (373) to provide a parameter indicator (Z') of a further process parameter (173, z) for the industrial machine (123) with steps that comprise receiving measurement time-series with historical measurement data from reference machi...
