Building Machine Learning Agents using Aspen Mtell

This course will help you prepare for the certification exam and the exam fee is waived with this course.


The Aspen Mtell application is a condition monitoring solution that uses automated Machine Learning to stop machines from breaking down, makes them last longer, reduces maintenance costs, and increases the net product output of any process.


This course will prepare you to build Agents for use in a Mtell real-time monitoring solution. You will learn the Aspen Mtell implementation methodology to create Machine Learning Agents for a single asset, practice agent tuning to create the most accurate agent with the earliest detection of failures. You will use Aspen Mtell Failure Agents to analyze past failure data and the precise patterns that match degrading conditions that lead to failure. Additionally, you will learn to deploy machine learning agents to fully specify your input data to create agents ready for continuous 24/7 protection of critical plan assets.

Audience:

Engineers, Consultants or Managers focused on Preventative Maintenance and System Reliability.
