This book investigates the rapid developments of Artificial intelligence (AI) as well as their capability to address efficiently and in a cost-effective manner issues of the manufacturing field. A number of manufacturing applications of AI related to manufacturing processes, robots, automation and manufacturing systems design and control, are presented and discussed. The book includes an outlook on a  way forward to intelligent manufacturing, through AI. The real benefit from AI in manufacturing will not only derive through the automation of tasks but also through the provision of new levels of autonomy that will make entirely new applications possible and introduce new business processes in manufacturing.

This book reports on recent developments of artificial intelligence applications in the manufacturing industry. Gathering contributions to the first European Symposium on Artificial Intelligence in Manufacturing, held on September 19, 2023, in Kaiserslautern, Germany, it reports on machine learning models and algorithms for systems monitoring and industrial data management, on advances in human-robot collaboration, and on artificial intelligence applications in industrial control and process monitoring. Giving a special emphasis to the integration of artificial intelligence in manufacturing systems and processes, this book offers a timely and practice-oriented guide to a multidisciplinary audience of engineering researchers, software developers and industrial managers.
