The following specification particularly describes the invention and the manner in which it is to be performed.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is related to “machine learning, deep learning and artificial intelligence based analytical platform” for processing of system agnostic collaborative information specifics derived from disparate systems such as Operation Technology (OT) systems (Fig.10 (1001to1009)), Information Technology (IT) systems (Fig.12(1201 to 1215)), Internet of Things (IoT) systems (Fig.11(1101 to 1113) and Internet of Everything systems, be it a machine or a platform or a process framework or any other intelligent system or manual system.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
In the past few years, globally many smart devices are being interconnected and communicated through the existing internet infrastructure which form a global network infrastructure called the Internet of Things (IoT). Studies have shown that there is substantial development and solutions are being introduced for a wide range of devices and platforms in the field of Information Technology (IT) (Fig.12), Operational Technology (OT) (Fig.10) and Internet of Things (IOT) (Fig.11) over the past decade.
However, each solution offers its own IoT infrastructural, devices, APIs, data sharing methods and data formats resulting in interoperability issues. Such interoperability issues are the consequences of many critical issues such as vendor lock-in, impossibility to develop universal application exposing cross-platforms, and/or across-domains, difficulty in plugging non-interoperable IT/OT/IOT devices into different platforms, and ultimately prevents the emergence of unified technology at a large-scale. To enable seamless resource sharing between different source applications and devices, efforts by several academia, industry, and standardization bodies have emerged to help IT/OT/IOT interoperability, i.e., the ability for multiple platforms from different applications to work together. Hence there is a need for developing a platform to address existing state-of-the-art solutions for facilitating interoperability between different domains, applications, infrastructure and devices (Fig.9)
.A unified analytics system enables organizations to aggregate information specifics to monitor, analyse, manage, and prescribe smart infrastructure strategies across a variety of data sources, systems, and communication protocols. Such a decision support system must work with distributed data both structured and unstructured – with scalable data storage and extensible service-oriented architecture. To gain insights from such data, the system must use advanced intelligence models to uncover hidden patterns, trends, and correlations. The platform must be interactive to accept multi-dimensional user-defined data sources, present alternatives for intelligent processes, automate the analytics from data input to results visualization, and provide feedback through prescriptive advisories and alerts for optimization and situational response.
Such a platform needs to poses capability of omni-information specifics intelligence in order to process data mining and analysing of even the agnostic data patterns also. Data mining involves various sources – structured and/or unstructured - such as process historian [continuous] time series, and/or discrete events, which must be analysed to derive context-based insights in real-time. This is cross-disciplinary analytics. Finally, the results must be available on intelligent dashboards to enable multiple stakeholders to execute effective systems response and strategic decisions for optimized infrastructural operations. This is cognitive ‘intelligence-enabled system controls and prescriptive optimization’, which is the key innovation of “Cognitive Interoperable Inquisitive Source Agnostic Infrastructure Omni- Specifics Intelligence System for Collaborative Infra Super Diligence”
In the IT/OT/IOT enabled scenario, collaboration using a variety of communication mediums and protocols is imperative for effective infrastructure monitoring and response. At the same time, sustainability and emergency response, disaster preparedness and operational efficiency are key mandates across industrial domains, government, infrastructure, and citizen services platforms - where KPIs must be complied with, while addressing complex multi-disciplinary optimization trade-offs.

DRAWBACKS PRESENT IN PRIOR ART
There is a lacuna in current smart infrastructure platforms where IT/OT/IOT applications and equipment is not fully integrated for seamless operational intelligence. This gap must be addressed with an integrated analytics solution where information specifics from diverse operational equipment needs to be extracted to yield actionable insights and advisories for stakeholders across functions/domains – a key requirement for smart infra such as in smart cities, data centres, urban/rural infrastructure, campuses, sea/air-ports, rail networks, energy/utilities, or industries etc.,
Current platforms lack a seamless and interactive user interface for Visual Analytics and absence of decision support under uncertainty is a major drawback since they are largely transactional, and do not provide insights into unknown scenarios.
The present platforms suffer from lack of benchmark data sets in operational technology and cannot enable analytics across cyber-physical operations and fail to provide comprehensive portfolio to mine raw analogue data and provide insights as well as advisories in response to events.
Also, it does not address all the complexities of cross-system interactions and heterogeneity of information specifics, which requires wide array of protocols for communication, it suffers from lack of correlative analytics across disparate IT/OT/IOT derived information specifics streams and across stakeholders, where both operational equipment (OT) and ICT infrastructure, must be concurrently monitored and managed.
And lastly current platforms do not have the capability to assess nor enable compliance watch guarding and auditing to global standards such as sustainability metrics, ISO frameworks, World Council for City Data (WCCD), LEED, WELL, United Nations-Sustainable Development Goals, which is key to infrastructure optimization

NECESSITY FOR NEW INVENTION
There is a need for a smart interoperable analytical platform for mining and analysis of information specifics from disparate systems through predictive and preventive models to solve the challenges of multi-disciplinary optimization across domains by seamlessly mining a combination of IT & OT data as explained above:
This clearly demands a solution for two major problems in this field, one problem is how to harness the increasing volume, variety, and velocity of unstructured data is not only how to harness the huge data for insights (what happened and how) on cause-effect relationships, but more importantly, how to predict trends and prescribe optimal response strategies to events before they occur.
Another problem to be addressed is real-time situational response strategies and automated intelligent advisories with collaborative workflows, where events can trigger alerts and work orders and raise context-sensitive intelligent alarms and online real-time information exchange, resulting in quick decisions and optimal cross-functional response.
Hence the invention addresses the requirement of users and organizations by providing a unified context-driven analytics platform which provide actionable insights in three dimensions ICT-enabled, IOT-connected, and operational equipment performance and thus handles seamlessly ingested unstructured raw data using multiple different communication modalities, along with advanced Machine Learning models and cognitive intelligence.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The present disclosure relates to the branch of engineering which involves Machine learning which happens to be the subset of AI (Artificial Intelligence). Machine learning is an application of artificial intelligence that provides systems with the ability to automatically learn and improve from experience without being explicitly programmed
The invention addresses the requirement of users and organizations by providing a unified context-aware IoT-based analytics platform (Fig 12) which provide actionable insights on both ICT (information and communication technology)-enabled and operational equipment performance and thus handles seamlessly ingested unstructured raw data using multiple different communication modalities, along with advanced Machine Learning models and cognitive intelligence.(Fig 2) Additionally, it provides automated collaborative workflow mechanisms for effective operational response strategies by developing multi-disciplinary ML platforms to accelerate predictive and prescriptive insights, to enable cross-disciplinary decision support workflows, and optimize cyber-physical infrastructure with converged IT (information technology)/OT(operational technology) / IOT (Internet of things) analytics (Fig. 9)
The invention is a collaborative, interoperable cognitive intelligence platform for disparate data, provides advanced models and intelligent dashboards to (a) manage and monitor cyber-physical equipment, (Fig.13) (b) derive insights and hidden trends and patterns, (Fig.15) and (c) predict possible scenarios and prescribe optimization strategies.(Fig 24) This is achieved with a variety of communication protocols and models to optimize infrastructure while automating situational monitoring and response workflows (Fig 8).
Predominantly it is a Machine Learning platform through which it extracts information specifics from cyber-physical infrastructural elements, using advanced cognitive intelligence and models to (i) analyse multi-dimensional inputs and (ii) provide actionable insights and prescriptive advisories for effective decision support and operational response strategies (Fig 8).
The invention provides Machine Learning frameworks (Fig. 2) i.e., a Workbench, with cognitive intelligence and modelling methods to address ‘What-If’ scenarios (Fig.2 (207), (220) (222)) - users can devise specific studies with workbench to build and train models. ML workbench (Fig.2 (213)) thus provides both domain-specific standard analytics (Fig.2 (212)) as well as user-defined scenarios (Fig.2 (217)), while assisting the user to optimize their model performance. The seamless User Interface provides best-in-class visualization (Fig.2(226), Fig. 15, 16 & 17)) and dashboards, while also enabling collaborative specific information exchange and workflows across disciplines. The innovation based on self-comparative models of process and technical frameworks covers, pre-defined canned analytics (Fig.2 (216)), user defined analytics (Fig.2 (217)) and also standard compliance analytics (Fig.2 (216)).
The major processes of the invention comprise domain selection (Fig.2 (202 to 204), source selection (Fig.2 (205) & Fig.4(405)), extraction (Fig,2 (206) & Fig.4(406)), checking (Fig.2 (207) & Fig.4(407)), transformation (Fig.2 (208) & Fig.4(408)) and cleansing, big data storage (Fig.2(209) & Fig.4(409)), invoking of machine learning work bench (Fig.2(211) & Fig.5(502)), Analysis of models (Fig.2 (215) & Fig.5(506)), model testing and acceptance (Fig.2 (219) & Fig.5(510)) and finally result visualization. (Fig.2 (226)).
The entire concept of the invention operates like a closed loop control system, comprising input (Fig,1 (101) – process (Fig.1(102 & 103)) – output (Fig.1 (104)) which is governed by a feedback sequence which acts as a control and governs the entire operation. Figure 1. shows a block diagram of four major stages of the entire concept from input to output. The input components consist of domain selection and information specifics source selection (Fig.1(101)) which is predominantly handled by the users themselves and the feeding of the information specifics is done through any of the standard input devices such as keyboard, scanner, camera, sensors, or any other sources. The Input data is further analysed (Fig1, (102)) and are segregated as per specific models, the analysed models are evaluated and tested (Fig1. (103)) with is machine learning capabilities of the platform and finally processed data in the form of results or output (Fig.1 (104)) is displayed through intelligent dashboards where user can interactively choose their parameters of interest.
(Fig.3 (306)) from a variety of sources, (Fig.2(202) and Fig.3(301)) this input uses multiple protocols (Fig. 2(204)) as the cognitive interoperable intelligence platform can handle diverse data formats. The system developed intelligence primarily extracts the data sources (Fig.2 (206)) and checks (Fig.2 (207)) whether it is ready to input and ascertain suitability for processing, in case if the input is distorted or disturbed with noise, the system undertakes cleansing action (Fig.3 (308 to 310)) and finally the clean and transformed information specifics (Fig.2 (208)) is stored in big data storage (Fig.2 (209)) which may be a secured server or a cloud store.
Further the data is engineered for specific features and relevant use cases based on the domain of applicability. This is the first stage of the ML (Machine Learning) workbench process (Fig.2 (211) & Fig.5(502)). The core processing involves various operations such as feature engineering (Fig.2 (215) & Fig.5(506)), intelligence selection and user defined studies take place, the processed information specifics from the ML work bench passes into analysis pipeline (Fig.2 (219) & Fig.6(602)) wherein operations such as model definition, input training, method selection, and multiple iterations are submitted to fine tune the model
The core ML pipeline (Fig.2 (219) & Fig.6(602)), from designing the user cases and metrics of the analysis, to defining the appropriate models and cognitive intelligence for the specific domain, and enabling the user to choose either pre-defined or specific experiments to be run, and defining the test and training specifics (Fig.2 (220) & Fig.6(603)), are the essential functions enabled in this step. This is where complex scenarios are defined and the model is fine-tuned for specific parameters of interest.
The fine-tuned and processed information specifics model undergoes testing and acceptance process (Fig. 2 (221 & 222) & Fig.6(604 & 605)) before it is let out for result visualization (Fig.2 (226) & Fig.7(705)) which is the output of the system. The result visualization can be a dashboard for analysis (Fig.2 (225) & Fig.7(704)), results for user defined studies, a standard domain specific metrics or it can give options for correlative, predictive or prescriptive studies (Fig.2 (227) & Fig.7(706)).
Finally, results are output in intelligent dashboards (Fig.2 (226) & Fig.7(705)) where user can interactively choose their parameters of interest. These dashboards also provide actionable alerts (Fig.2 (228) & Fig.7(707)) and insights for further operational strategies (Fig.2 (224) & Fig.7(708)).
The master process flow of the invention is shown in Fig.2 (201 to 229) which illustrates detailed work flow process of the invention, being cognitive interoperable inquisitive source agnostic infrastructure omni-specifics intelligence system is illustrated in the flow chart of Figure: 2 (201 to 229) The process stages and the sequential methods are explained in the following para:

Once the domain and specifics selection are undertaken the system connects to the relevant data sources and the data is extracted (Fig.2(206) & Fig.4(405)) On completion of the data extraction (Fig.2(206) & Fig.4(405)) process, the extracted data undergoes inspection (checking) process (Fig.2(207) & Fig.4(406)) in this the data is checked for its readiness for input to cognitive Intelligence, if ready the data is stored in Big. data (Fig.2 (209) & Fig.4(407)) storage which might be secured on premise server or cloud server. If the data is not ready it undergoes transformation process (Fig.2 (208) & Fig.4(408)) which consists of data cleansing, pre-processing process comprising of extraction, transformation and loading, in this process data from various sources is transformed in to the information in specific format in line with needs and finally the information is loaded into a destination database.
