Building CPI’s capability in industrial connectivity, Federated Learning and data science methodologies

The intended outcome from this lot is to advance the digital maturity of a new plastics recycling plant that will be installed at CPI’s Biotechnology centre in Wilton, enabling it to form part of a larger Federated Learning test bed. The intention of this test bed is to provide proof of concept for the benefits of data-driven modelling and Federated Learning in the plastics recycling sector.

The intended outcome from this lot is a Federated Learning platform that allows machine learning (ML) modelling of data from industrial assets and plants. The platform should allow building of ML models on the edge without the need to share data.

The intended outcome for this lot is the provision of training in data scientific approaches. The target audience of the training are general scientists (typically chemists / chemical engineers, trained to PhD level or graduates with several years’ experience) with good understanding of data science and python coding, but no formal training. The focus of the training should be on practical approaches and robust procedures that can be implemented at CPI.
