Hydrodynamic pattern formation phenomena in printing and coating processes are still not fully understood. However, fundamental understanding is essential to achieve high-quality printed products and to tune printed patterns according to the needs of a specific application like printed electronics, graphical printing, or biomedical printing. The aim of the paper is to develop an automated pattern classification algorithm based on methods from supervised machine learning and reduced-order modeling. We use the HYPA-p dataset, a large image dataset of gravure-printed images, which shows various types of hydrodynamic pattern formation phenomena. It enables the correlation of printing process parameters and resulting printed patterns for the first time. 26880 images of the HYPA-p dataset have been labeled by a human observer as dot patterns, mixed patterns, or finger patterns; 864000 images (97%) are unlabeled. A singular value decomposition (SVD) is used to find the modes of the labeled images and to reduce the dimensionality of the full dataset by truncation and projection. Selected machine learning classification techniques are trained on the reduced-order data. We investigate the effect of several factors, including classifier choice, whether or not fast Fourier transform (FFT) is used to preprocess the labeled images, data balancing, and data normalization. The best performing model is a k-nearest neighbor (kNN) classifier trained on unbalanced, FFT-transformed data with a test error of 3%, which outperforms a human observer by 7%. Data balancing slightly increases the test error of the kNN-model to 5%, but also increases the recall of the mixed class from 90% to 94%. Finally, we demonstrate how the trained models can be used to predict the pattern class of unlabeled images and how the predictions can be correlated to the printing process parameters, in the form of regime maps.
