06RESULTS & METRICS
- R01The results are highly dependent on the quality of the data provided by the factory, which varies from country to country.
- R02A single model that could predict the consumption of all furnaces is not feasible because it depends on the technology used, the strategy and the quality of production.
- R03The most effective machine learning algorithms are random forest, gradient boosting and a meta-model combining several models with results of up to 92% accuracy.
