New system extracts industrial failure knowledge using TLP and LLMs

Researchers have developed "Plant Memory," a system designed to extract and organize failure knowledge from industrial maintenance work orders. This system uses technical language processing and an ontology aligned with ISO 14224 standards to create a verified knowledge graph. The system prioritizes rule-based extraction, with an optional LLM acting as a secondary reader to flag disagreements for technician review, ensuring accuracy and completeness of the failure data. The resulting knowledge graph is accessible to both human users via a web application and AI agents through a Model Context Protocol server, with all answers directly citing the source work orders. AI

IMPACT This system could significantly improve the accessibility and utility of industrial maintenance data for AI agents, leading to better diagnostics and predictive maintenance.

    Plant Memory: Technical Language Processing and a Verified Maintenance Ontology for Agent-Accessible Failure Knowledge from SAP PM Work Orders

    arXiv:2610.19131v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Maintenance work orders are the largest written record of how industrial equipment fails, yet in most plants they are close to unusable for analysis. Short texts are abbreviated and misspelt, asset identity is buried in free text,…
