- Abstract summary: Global crises and regulatory developments require increased supply chain transparency and resilience.
Information about supply chains, especially at the deeper levels, is often intransparent and incomplete.
By connecting different data sources, we model the supply network as a knowledge graph and achieve transparency up to tier-3 suppliers.

- Abstract: Global crises and regulatory developments require increased supply chain
transparency and resilience. Companies do not only need to react to a dynamic
environment but have to act proactively and implement measures to prevent
production delays and reduce risks in the supply chains. However, information
about supply chains, especially at the deeper levels, is often intransparent
and incomplete, making it difficult to obtain precise predictions about
prospective risks. By connecting different data sources, we model the supply
network as a knowledge graph and achieve transparency up to tier-3 suppliers.
To predict missing information in the graph, we apply state-of-the-art
knowledge graph completion methods and attain a mean reciprocal rank of 0.4377
with the best model. Further, we apply graph analysis algorithms to identify
critical entities in the supply network, supporting supply chain managers in
automated risk identification.

We present the Graph-based Supply Prediction (GSP) probabilistic model.
It predicts supplies, inventory, and imbalances using graph-structured historical data, demand forecasting, and original supply plan inputs.
Experiments, conducted using historical data from a global consumer goods company's large-scale supply chain, demonstrate that GSP significantly improves supply and inventory prediction accuracy.

setting: a decentralised approach [69.62333053044712]
We propose the use of explainable artificial intelligence for decentralised computing of estimated contributions to a metric of interest.
This approach mitigates the need to convince supply chain actors to share data, as all computations occur in a decentralised manner.
Results demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach in detecting the source of quality variations compared to a centralised approach.

chain automation [71.77396882936951]
Agent-based supply chains have been proposed since early 2000; industrial uptake has been lagging.
We find that agent-based technology has matured, and other supporting technologies that are penetrating supply chains are filling in gaps.
For example, the ubiquity of IoT technology helps agents "sense" the state of affairs in a supply chain and opens up new possibilities for automation.
