Aspects of the disclosed technology provide a computational model that utilizes machine learning for detecting errors during a manual assembly process and determining a sequence of steps to complete the manual assembly process in order to mitigate the detected errors. In some implementations, the disclosed technology evaluates a target object at a step of an assembly process where an error is detected to a nominal object to obtain a comparison. Based on this comparison, a sequence of steps for completion of the assembly process of the target object is obtained. The assembly instructions for creating the target object are adjusted based on this sequence of steps.

An operation status display device displays an operation status of a board work machine, in which an operator replenishes an article to be used in production of a board product, and the operation status display device includes an acquisition section and a display section. The acquisition section is configured to acquire a first time, which is a wait time from when the article is insufficient in the board work machine to when the operator starts replenishment work of the article, and a second time, which is a work time from when the operator starts the replenishment work to when the article is replenished in the board work machine. The display section is configured to display the first time and the second time when the article is insufficient in the board work machine to when the article is replenished.
