Over the last several years of deploying AI into manufacturing, we have realized that the time value of our manufacturing engineers is quite high. Any time they spend transferring their knowledge to AI teams is frowned upon by them and seen as being unproductive. On the other hand, any time savings for them is seen […]

Artificial intelligence (AI) is among the drivers of innovation in every industry, and it’s also a key player in reducing businesses’ carbon emissions. For instance, AI technology has significantly helped cut the carbon footprint of the energy industry through efficiency improvements, particularly in customer engagement, energy trading, and energy fraud detection. Carbon has a cost […]

Knowing how to manage and process data, information, is an asset of the digital enterprise. That’s why analytics tools are becoming increasingly important in the manufacturing sector. As highlighted by Gartner in one of its Magic Quadrant for Analytics and Business Intelligence Platforms, the trend (as well as the differential on which industry players are […]

Using digital twins, one can enable AI to better interpret and train algorithms to manage building energy. One of the greatest hurdles in use of AI is cleaning the data to train the algorithm well. Digital twins allow the user to engage with the data to ensure its validity prior to AI training, creating a […]

Artificial intelligence does not have an unambiguously accepted definition. This is because AI is not a stand-alone technology but a combination of different technologies that, properly orchestrated with each other, allow machines to act, almost, autonomously. Unlike automation, AI doesn’t just allow you to follow repetitive tasks but, like a human brain, it is able […]

Machine Learning is a subset of artificial intelligence (AI) that deals with creating systems that learn or improve performance based on the data they use: it has unprecedented computational capacity, but on its own it cannot be perfect. It always requires the mediation, the fundamental presence, of man, who is the only one able to […]

Logistics is difficult because it is hard to keep track of everything. Although most logistics and transportation service providers use mobile technology, changes in regulatory environments, rising labor costs, increased traffic, and volatile fuel prices can impact operations. Companies are also faced with an increasing demand for transparency from the market. With machine learning (ML), […]

Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Computing are often used as interchangeable terms, and as much as both refer to machines with human-like capabilities, there are some big and important differences. AI, some basic notes AI is talked about abundantly, and equally abundant are the definitions with which we want to describe this discipline. In synthetic terms, […]

Electricity is fundamental to our society. As climate change becomes more severe and demand for clean energy increases, the future is the electrification of everything and along with it, the need for reliable energy. The U.S. infrastructure spans over a vast 200,000 miles and inspecting all of it is a time-consuming and high-risk process that […]

As the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in January sparked a new wave of autonomous vehicles (AVs) coming to the automotive market in the next few years, much focus as of late has been on the technology of these vehicles themselves. However, the technology embedded in road infrastructure is also beginning to see more conversation between […]

Few areas in computer science have, over the years, repeatedly created as much interest, promise, and disappointment, as the field of artificial intelligence. The manufacturing industry, now the latest target application area of “AI”, puts much hype on AI for predictive maintenance. Will AI deliver this time, or is disappointment inevitable? In engineering, the development […]
