The IPC and NOC committees of IFAC SAFEPROCESS 2027 are pleased to announce a new competition with multiple benchmarks that build upon and update those from prior SAFEPROCESS and DX series competitions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consecutive competitions can be viewed as a common thread across the SAFEPROCESS and DX events, which share many common topics. This thread should enable new participants to enter the competition at any SAFEPROCESS or DX event and previous participants to improve their solutions between two events. The contestants can enter their solutions for addressing diagnosis problems in up to four benchmarks: LiU-ICE, SLIDe, COMIC, and LUMEN. Each participant may tackle one, or several of all four benchmarks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the SAFEPROCESS 2027 edition, competitors are <\/em>not required to submit a paper<\/em><\/strong>, but must submit their<\/strong> code, results, and a technical description<\/strong> of their solution (maximum two pages)<\/em> by April 29, 2027<\/em><\/strong>, which will be reviewed. Each team <\/em>will be given a presentation slot<\/strong> to present their method and results in a dedicated symposium session.<\/em> For detailed information about the competition as a whole and the individual benchmarks, we refer the interested reader to the DX&SAFEPROCESS\u201927 repository<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A short description of the four benchmarks is given below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
