These data should serve as the basis to take better decisions at all levels (from the design to operation and management). Nevertheless, raw data needs to be transformed in useful information, usually in the form of prediction models. Machine learning plays thus a key role in this task. The process industry is not alien to this digital transformation, although large processing plants present particularities that differentiate them from other systems. These differences, if neglected, can make machine learning for general purpose fail in extracting the right information from data, leading thus to unreliable process models. As such models are the basis on which the ideas towards the cognitive plant rely, this issue is of key importance for a successful full digitalization of the process industry. Here we discuss these aspects, as well as the more suitable machine-learning ap-proaches, through our experience in an industrial case study.
