Project Description:
As offshore wind turbines are entering a new technological era; more sensing systems are adopted which results to a geometrical increase of high sampling data. This project aims to promptly process the massive collection of data and automatically provide advanced data features that are rich in information. Artificial Intelligence tools like deep learning architectures shall be investigated spanning from deep neural networks to Bayesian deep networks like Gaussians Processes (GPs). The aim is to provide online, fast and sparse processing of huge amounts of data in order to deliver intelligent data understanding across wind turbine fleets and farms (e.g. informative structural health diagnosis systems (SHM)) under various operating and environmental conditions.
