Tool Description#

An important step in data analysis is data exploration, to achieve a better understanding of the data. The Exploratory Pattern Analytics (EPA) tool works on prepared/preprocessed tabular data. It provides explanatory patterns, i.e., simple rules between some parameters (e.g., temperature, pressure) that are predictive for a certain target parameter (e.g., scrap rate). This provides important insights enhancing data understanding. For example, it could be used to better understand why certain known outliers occur in process data.
