Original Abstract Submitted
An industrial automation system comprises multiple process components, each categorizable into a cohort corresponding to a cohorting criterion. Some process components are configured to perform a machine learning (ML) process. A process component hosts at least a part of an ML model per cohort and communicates the ML model parameters among the multiple process components. The system assigns one or more of the process components to one of the cohorts according to the cohorting criterion; attributes the ML model parameters of a process component in a selected one of the cohorts to the ML model belonging to the selected cohort; determines a proximity value of each pair of cohorts; assigns a pair of cohorts to a respective neighboring cohort group when the proximity value meets a predetermined proximity criterion; and shares the ML model related data between process components belonging to the same neighboring cohort group.
