Presented by: Shreyes Melkote, Professor, School of Mechanical Engineering, Georgia Tech

Abstract
Manufacturing is being rapidly transformed by Industry 4.0 technologies including reliable and accurate sensing, the industrial internet and edge/cloud computing, and by advances in artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML). These technologies are enabling manufacturing machines to become more self-aware, accurate, and intelligent. This talk will present some of the recent advances we have made through our work on real-time sensing and control of industrial robots for accurate machining of large-scale structures, robust machining chatter detection using human-machine interaction, and data-driven methods for automatically learning the capabilities of manufacturing processes from design and manufacturing data to enable future on-demand cyber manufacturing services.
