The prediction mechanism is very crucial in a smart factory as they widely help in improving the product quality and customer’s experience based on learnings from past trends. The implementation of analytics tools to predict the production and consumer patterns plays a vital rule. In this paper, we put our efforts to find integrated solutions for smart factory concerns by proposing an efficient task management mechanism based on learning to scheduling in a smart factory. The learning to prediction mechanism aims to predict the machine utilization for machines involved in the smart factory, in order to efficiently use the machine resources. The prediction algorithm used is artificial neural network (ANN) and the learning to prediction algorithm used is particle swarm optimization (PSO). The proposed task management mechanism is evaluated based on multiple scenario simulations and performance analysis. The comparisons analysis shows that proposed task management system significantly improves the machine utilization rate and drastically drops the tasks instances missing rate and tasks starvation rate.

Given the special working environments and application functions of the amphibious robot, an improved RGB-D visual tracking algorithm with dual trackers is proposed and implemented in this chapter. Compressive tracking (CT) was selected as the basis of the proposed algorithm to process colour images from a RGB-D camera, and a Kalman filter with a second-order motion model was added to the CT tracker to predict the state of the target, select candidate patches or samples, and reinforce the tracker's robustness to high-speed moving targets. In addition, a variance ratio features shift (VR-V) tracker with a Kalman prediction mechanism was adopted to process depth images from a RGB-D camera. A visible and infrared fusion mechanism or feedback strategy is introduced in the proposed algorithm to enhance its adaptability and robustness. To evaluate the effectiveness of the algorithm, Microsoft Kinect, which is a combination of colour and depth cameras, was adopted for use in a prototype of the robotic tracking system.
