Control engineering is a field of major industrial importance as it offers principles for engineering controllable physical devices, such as cell phones, television sets, and printing systems. Control engineering techniques assume that a physical system's dynamic behaviour can be completely described by means of a set of equations. However, as modern systems are often of high complexity, drafting such equations has become more and more difficult. Moreover, to dynamically adapt the system's behaviour to a changing environment, observations obtained from sensors at runtime need to be taken into account. However, such observations give an incomplete picture of the system's behaviour; when combined with the incompletely understood complexity of the device, control engineering solutions increasingly fall short. Probabilistic reasoning would allow one to deal with these sources of incompleteness, yet in the area of control engineering such AI solutions are rare. When using a Bayesian network in this context the required model can be learnt, and tuned, from data, uncertainty can be handled, and the model can be subsequently used for stochastic control of the system's behaviour. In this paper we discuss industrial research in which Bayesian networks were successfully used to control complex printing systems.
