1. What is Digital Twin and how it works?

Asdefinedbymostoftheresearchers,Digital-Twin refers to a virtual representation of a physical object that allowsforsimulationandanalysisofreal-worldscenarios[1] [2]. On the other hand, a Digital twin can be defined as a virtual representationofa physical assetenabled through dataandsimulatorsforreal-timeoptimization,prediction, monitoring,andcontrolling[2][3].

The Digital Twin on the other hand, is a term that distinguishes itself from the digital model and digital shadow. Despite being a key enabler for digital transformation in manufacturing, there is no common understandingofthetermDTinliterature,andliteratureon thehighestdevelopmentstage.However,thedigitaltwinisa key building block for smart factory and manufacturing undertheIndustry4.0paradigm[7].Itisadigitalmodelfor emulatingorreproducingthefunctionsoractionsofareal manufacturingsystem[8].DTiscreatedduringthedesign stage of a complex manufacturing system and is usable throughoutitslifecycle[7].Itssevenbasicelementsinclude controller,executor,processor,buffer,flowingentity,virtual

service node, and logistics path of a DMS for formally representingamanufacturingsystemandcreatingitsvirtual model.Adigitaltwinrepresentsanorganicwholeofphysical assets and their digitized representation that mutually communicate and co-evolve through bidirectional interactions. The entities, behaviours, and relations in the physical world are digitized holistically to create highfidelityvirtualmodels.Virtualmodelsdependonreal-world data from the physical world to formulate their real-time parameters, boundary conditions, and dynamics. DT has emerged over the past decade in the domains of manufacturing,production,andoperations[8].Itfacilitates learningthroughmodelling,simulation,andanalysisandhas been used in the PDCA cycle for production management includingdesign,operation,andimprovementofproduction systems[8].Monitoreddatafromphysicalartefactstodigital processesisanessentialcomponentofDTwhichgenerates newknowledge.Additionally,well-definedservicescanbe supported by DT such as monitoring, maintenance, management, optimization, and safety [7] [8]. DT is attracting attention from bothacademiaandindustryand hasbeenclassifiedasoneofthetop10technologicaltrends withstrategicvaluesforthreeyearsfrom2017to2019by Gartner.LockheedMartinlistedDTasoneofthesixgamechangingtechnologiesforthedefenceindustry.Digitaltwins are also used in manufacturing and engineering. A digital twinofafactoryorabridgecanbeusedtosimulatedifferent scenarios and test how the system will behave under different conditions [5]. This can help engineers identify potentialdesignflawsandoptimizetheperformance.

2. What is the relationship between AI and Digital Twin and the benefits of combining the two?

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into Digital Twins can greatly enhance their capabilities and expand their beneficial applications. AI can open up entirely new areasofapplicationforDigitalTwins,includingcross-phase industrial transfer learning [9]. One way in which AI enhancesthecapabilitiesofDigitalTwinsisthroughtransfer learning [10]. Transfer learning involves transferring knowledgefromonelifecyclephasetoanothertoreducethe amountofdataortimeneededtotrainamachinelearning algorithm.WithAI,DigitalTwinscanusereal-timedatato forecast the future of physical counterparts, thus significantlyimprovingpredictivemaintenanceandreducing downtime[10].Furthermore,AIfacilitatesthedevelopment of new models and technology systems in the domain of intelligent manufacturing, particularly in cross-phase industrial transfer learning use cases [10][9]. The implementation of AI in Digital Twins allows for optimization,adaptation,andreconfigurationofindustrial automation systems, which can lead to significant improvementsinefficiencyandcostsavings[11].Moreover, the intelligent Digital Twin architecture can be a possible implementation of AI-enhanced industrial automation systems,providing the four fundamental sub-processes of

intelligence - observation, analysis, reasoning, and action [11].Toachievethis,anartificialintelligencecomponentis connectedwiththeindustrialautomationsystem'scontrol unit and other entities through a series of standardized interfacesfordataandinformationexchange[10][11].With the integration of AI into Digital Twins, algorithms can be fine-tuned once real data becomes available, significantly speedingupcommissioningandreducingtheprobabilityof costly modifications [9]. Overall, equipping Digital Twins withAI functionalitiescangreatly expandtheir scopeand usefulnessforindustrialautomationsystems.

ThecombinationofAIandDigitalTwintechnologycanlead tonewandinnovativesolutionsfordisasterresponseand emergency management. AI can enable the collection and analysis of situational data from multiple sources in near real-time, including remote sensing, social sensing, and crowdsourcing technologies. This can enhance data collection, analysis, and decision-making in disaster situations and humanitarian crises [12]. Moreover, integratingheterogeneousdatausingAIcanprovidecritical insights needed by responders and relief actors [12]. The proposedDisasterCityDigitalTwinvisionofferssignificant

contributionsandimplicationsforresearchandpracticeof AI and city management in disasters, promoting interdisciplinaryconvergenceinthefieldofICTfordisaster response and emergency management [12] [13]. This integration can also introduce autonomy for in-situ selfmaintenance and autonomous repair capability [13]. By combiningAIandDigitalTwintechnology,itispossibleto enhance the performance of disaster response and emergency management, providing valuable information thatcaninformfutureresearch[12].

3. What are the possible tools for creating AI-enabled Digital Twins?

Each technologicalcomponentmaybeimplementedusingawide range of techniques. Only tools that support component integration, AI, and machine learning are included in this section. Table 1 summarizesafewofthecommonlyusedAI technologiesthatmaygiveassistanceatvariousphasesof digitaltwinning.

4. What are the current challenges in Digital Twin Technology and how can AI be used to address those Challenges?

Digital twin technology is an emergent field that has seen recent growth and attention in case studies. Despite its potential,digitaltwintechnologyfacessignificantchallenges initsgrowthandimplementation,whichmustbeaddressed forittobesuccessfullyintegratedintovariousdomains.The challenges associated with digital twin technology are significantandincludealackofpredictiveability,theinfancy of digital twins, complexity and scale of cyber-physical systems, and the need for manual construction of digital systems and definition of system components [21]. Nevertheless, digital twin technology offers the ability to providedeepinsightsintotheinnerworkingsofanysystem,

including the interaction between different parts of the systemandthefuturebehavioroftheirphysicalcounterpart inawaythatisactionablefortheirusersandstakeholders [22]. The development of industrial software solutions to virtual commissioning has greatly improved the accuracy and user-friendliness of off-line programming robotic systems and verifying control logic [21 [22]. In addition, there is an increasing trend toward the widespread implementation of digital twin technology in several domains, such as industrial, automotive, medicine, smart cities,etc.[22].Toovercomethechallengesassociatedwith digitaltwintechnologyandfacilitateitsimplementation,itis important to have a comprehensive understanding of the technology challenges, limitations, and trends as well as a domain-specific revision of applications. Therefore, a systematicliteraturereviewaimstopresentsuchaviewon

the digital twin technology and its implementation challengesandlimitsinvariousdomains[22].Forinstance, research toward the development of a metal additive manufacturing(AM)digitaltwincanbeorganizedlogically into a hierarchy of four levels of increasing complexity, whichrequiresdeepintegrationofkeyenablingtechnologies such as surrogate modeling, in-situ sensing, hardware controlsystems,andintelligentcontrolpolicies.Ultimately, digitaltwinsareconsideredashiftawayfromcostlyphysical testing and can provide a new perspective into cyberphysicalsystemtestingduetothecouplingbetweendigital andphysicalworlds[22][21].

ArtificialIntelligence(AI)isapromisingapproachto address the challenges in Digital Twin technology. AIenhanced interaction in DTS is presented in detail in the paper, and it is shown that predictive control through AIenhancedDTSimprovesreal-timeinteraction[23].AIisalso an effective approach to improve the intelligence of the physical shop-floor, and can be used to create virtual counterpartsofrobotmanufacturingsystemsthroughdigital twinsimulationandcommunicationtechnologies[23][21]. The intelligent scheduler for work cell scheduling can be safely trained on these virtual systems using Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) algorithms, which can incorporateAIintheindustrialcontrolprocess.TheuseofAI indigitaltwintechnologycanprovidemodernsolutionsto thegrowing needsof digitalizationinmanufacturing[21]. System-leveldigitaltwinningcanbeexpandedtocomplex manufacturing systems with deep neural networks to overcomethechallengesinDigitalTwintechnology.Virtual commissioningusinglarge-scalesimulations,promptsystem indicators,andcomputationtechnologiescanestablishalifelikedigitalmanufacturingplatform[21].Moreover,adatadrivenapproachthatutilizesdigitaltransformationmethods can automate smart manufacturing systems, while integrating a smart agent into industrial platforms can expandtheusageofthesystem-level.Virtualcommissioning canacceleratethetraining,testing,andvalidationofsmart control systems, providing a step towards system-level digital twinning. Furthermore, AI-driven robotic manufacturingcellscanbedevelopedthroughtheideation of a platform optimization tool as a concept of digital engineering [21] [23]. Therefore, AI can play a significant roleinovercomingthechallengesinDigitalTwintechnology andrevolutionizemanufacturingprocesses.
