Manufacturing process monitoring is crucial to ensure production quality. This paper formulates the detection problem of abnormal changes in the manufacturing process as the change point detection (CPD) problem for the industrial temporal data. The premise of known data property and sufficient data annotations in existing CPD methods limits their application in the complex manufacturing process. Therefore, a self-supervised and non-parametric CPD method based on temporal trend-seasonal feature decomposition and contrastive learning (CoCPD) is proposed. CoCPD aims to solve CPD problem in an online manner. By bringing the representations of time series segments with similar properties in the feature space closer, our model can sensitively distinguish the change points that do not conform to either historical data distribution or temporal continuity. The proposed CoCPD is validated by a real-world body-in-white production case and compared with 10 state-of-the-art CPD methods. Overall, CoCPD achieves promising results by Precision 70.6%, Recall 68.8%, and the mean absolute error (MAE) 8.27. With the ability to rival the best offline baselines, CoCPD outperforms online baseline methods with improvements in Precision, Recall and MAE by 14.90%, 11.93% and 43.93%, respectively. Experiment results demonstrate that CoCPD can detect abnormal changes timely and accurately.
