Implementing a data-based approach, can result in a reduction of the variability of the process by improving the overall reliability. The AdaBoost, ANN and SVM algorithms were implemented, where the AdaBoost performed the best in terms of fitness, error, and predictions, which was expected due to its k-folds nature. To counter the black-box nature of Machine Learning, a Taylor Modeling algorithm was implemented to build the mathematical model of the data with the use of an evolutionary algorithm to find the best parameters for the model.engDescriptive and predictive analytics of the cement and concrete production processarticleMachine2023-10-18Madrid Peláez, Juan PabloCardeño Luján, Salomón
