Implementations herein leverage knowledge about historical process automation facilities to automate designing a new process automation facility. A first level design input may be processed to generate a first embedding that encodes design aspect(s) of the requested process automation facility with a degree of detail commensurate with a first level of a hierarchy reflected by design documents typically used to design a process automation facility. The first embedding may be used to find first level reference embeddings that encode design aspects of reference process automation facilities. Second level reference embedding(s) may be identified based on mapping(s) from the selected first level reference embedding(s). Each second level reference embedding may encode design aspect(s) of a respective reference process automation facility with a degree of detail that is commensurate with a second level of the design document hierarchy. Based on the second level reference embedding(s), template design document(s) may be provided.
A method for designing at least part of a requested process automation facility, the method implemented using one or more processors and comprising:
A system for designing at least part of a requested process automation facility, the system comprising one or more processors and memory storing instructions that, in response to execution of the instructions, cause the one or more processors to:
A non-transitory computer-readable medium for designing at least part of a requested process automation facility, the medium comprising instructions that, in response to execution of the instructions by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
