At camLine forum 2024, Martin Schaupp, CTO of theion, shared how machine learning and digital twins are transforming battery R&D by streamlining parameter selection, improving data quality, and accelerating development cycles.
With an almost infinite number of material and process combinations, battery R&D requires advanced data-driven methods to navigate these complexities. Martin explained how machine learning models help identify the most critical parameters, reducing unnecessary variables and allowing manufacturers to focus on what truly impacts performance. By training AI systems through iterative adjustments, digital twins continuously refine predictions and enhance process efficiency. This approach not only improves decision-making but also ensures incoming production data is accurate and reliable.
“Machine learning allows us to shrink a highly complex problem into something manageable. It helps us isolate key parameters, refine predictions, and ensure our models truly reflect real-world processes.”
