Abstract
Quality inspection is a critical step in ensuring the quality and efficiency of textile production processes. With the increasing complexity and scale of modern textile manufacturing systems, the need for accurate and efficient quality inspection and defect detection techniques has become paramount. This paper compares supervised and unsupervised Machine Learning techniques for defect detection in the context of industrial textile production, in terms of their respective advantages and disadvantages, and their implementation and computational costs. We explore the use of an autoencoder for the detection of defects in textiles. The goal of this preliminary work is to find out if unsupervised methods can successfully train models with good performance without the need for defect labelled data. © 2024 The Authors.

Abstract
Considering the great challenge of implementing digital tools to improve collaboration in the value chain and promote the adoption of circularity strategies, as is the case with digital traceability tools and digital product passports. This paper presents an innovative proposal for implementing an industrial data sharing ecosystem, namely an architecture and platform for digital traceability between entities based on Data Spaces. To validate our proposal, a use case scenario was implemented as part of the BioShoes4All project. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2024.

Abstract
Legislation is a technical domain characterized by highly specialized knowledge forming a large corpus where content is interdependent in nature, but the context is poorly formalized. Typically, the legal domain involves several document types that can be related. Amendments, past judicial interpretations, or new laws can refer to other legal documents to contextualize or support legal formulation. Lengthy and complex texts are frequently unstructured or in some cases semi-structured. Therefore, several problems arise since legal documents, articles, or specific constraints can be cited and referenced differently. Based on legal annotations from a real-world scenario, an architectural approach for modeling a Knowledge Organization System for classifying legal documents and the related legal objects is presented. Data is summarized and classified using a topic modeling approach, with a view toward the improvement of browsing and retrieval of main legal topics and associated terms. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2024.

Abstract
This work extends the energy-efficient job shop scheduling problem with transport resources by considering speed adjustable resources of two types, namely: the machines where the jobs are processed on and the vehicles that transport the jobs around the shop-floor. Therefore, the problem being considered involves determining, simultaneously, the processing speed of each production operation, the sequence of the production operations for each machine, the allocation of the transport tasks to vehicles, the travelling speed of each task for the empty and for the loaded legs, and the sequence of the transport tasks for each vehicle. Among the possible solutions, we are interested in those providing trade-offs between makespan and total energy consumption (Pareto solutions). To that end, we develop and solve a bi-objective mixed-integer linear programming model. In addition, due to problem complexity we also propose a multi-objective biased random key genetic algorithm that simultaneously evolves several populations. The computational experiments performed have show it to be effective and efficient, even in the presence of larger problem instances. Finally, we provide extensive time and energy trade-off analysis (Pareto front) to infer the advantages of considering speed adjustable machines and speed adjustable vehicles and provide general insights for the managers dealing with such a complex problem.

Abstract
This paper analyses how the harmonization between supply and demand uncertainty and supply chain responsiveness (SC fit) impacts business performance. The study analyses data obtained from a sample of 179 manufacturing companies from Portugal. The business performance of companies with different types of SC fit (high-high fit and low-low fit) and misfit (positive and negative) were analyzed and discussed. The results indicate that SC fit is positively related to business performance, economic and productivity, and commercial performance separately. This study advances the literature as the results indicate that SC fit positively affects both commercial and economic, and productivity performance. In contrast, previous empirical studies have mainly addressed the impact only on financial and operational performance. © 2024, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.

Abstract
Subgroup discovery (SD) aims at finding significant subgroups of a given population of individuals characterized by statistically unusual properties of interest. SD on event logs provides insight into particular behaviors of processes, which may be a valuable complement to the traditional process analysis techniques, especially for low -structured processes. This paper proposes a scalable and efficient method to search significant SD rules on frequent sequences of events, exploiting their multidimensional nature. With this method, it is intended to identify significant subsequences of events where the distribution of values of some target aspect is significantly different than the same distribution for the entire event log. A publicly available real -life event log of a Dutch hospital is used as a running example to demonstrate the applicability of our method. The proposed approach was applied on a real -life case study based on the public transport of a medium size European city (Porto, Portugal), for which the event data consists of 133 million smartcard travel validations from buses, trams and trains. The results include a characterization of mobility flows over multiple aspects, as well as the identification of unexpected behaviors in the flow of commuters (public transport). The generated knowledge provided a useful insight into the behavior of travelers, which can be applied at operational, tactical and strategic business levels, enhancing the current view of the transport services to transport authorities and operators.
