Next-Generation Industrial Robotic Capabilities Advanced by Artificial Intelligence – Robotics Tomorrow

As barriers between human activities and robotic capabilities diminish moving beyond the fenced activities of last-generation industrial robots new collaboration and workflow models are bringing humans and robots together in industry.

Case Study from | Wind River

THE CHALLENGE

Emerging instances of AI-enabled cobots, autonomous vehicles, and non-piloted drone operations are part of an expanding array of innovative use cases in industrial robotics. Industrial robotics integrated with AI are predicted to spur market growth by a projected CAGR of more than 15% in coming years, reaching USD 66.48 billion by 2027, according to Fortune Business Insights. As barriers between human activities and robotic capabilities diminish moving beyond the fenced activities of last-generation industrial robots new collaboration and workflow models are bringing humans and robots together in industry. Despite advances, however, expanding the range of use cases for robotics in Industrial IoT (IIoT) environments requires negotiating long-standing technical roadblocks. This includes the challenge of integrating diverse components across heterogeneous networks, employing machine learning to build and operate intelligent systems that adapt to workflows, and implementing responsive, low-latency communication services to interact with robotics systems in real time.

THE APPROACH

Artificial intelligence is critical to new robotics approaches. And rather than augmenting existing machine operations by bolting on AI-driven components, AI-first puts the intelligence at the forefront of the design process to perform at the core of a task. The focus is on building solutions that meld hardware and software to effectively use machine learning and AI-guided functions, performing operations with greater speed, reliability, security, and safety. As with digital transformation, the AI-first approach requires a rethinking of traditional design transforming architectures to satisfy the solution requirements over the full lifecycle, rather than just reorganizing and tinkering with existing solutions. The Wind Riverportfolio, with its multiple solutions and purpose-built embedded components, provides a flexible and agile foundation for meeting this need. Wind River solutions are elements of an extensive roadmap leading to the benefits and enhanced business value promised by todays industrial robotics.

Capgemini Research: Artificial Intelligence set to help organizations cut greenhouse gas emissions by 16% in the next 3-5 years

48% of organizations surveyed are using AI for climate action, resulting in reduced greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) and improved power efficiency

Paris, November 17, 2020 Artificial Intelligence (AI) powered use cases for climate action have the potential to help organizations fulfil up to 45% of their Economic Emission Intensity (EEI) targets of the Paris Agreement. This is according to a new research entitled, Climate AI: How artificial intelligence can power your climate action strategy, from the Capgemini Research Institute, conducted in partnership with climate change start-up right. based on science. While AI offers many climate action use cases, scaled deployment is proving elusive and just 13% of organizations are successfully combining climate vision with AI capabilities.

Two-thirds (67%) of organizations have set long-term business goals to tackle climate change. While many technologies address a specific outcome, such as carbon capture or renewable sources of energy, AI can accelerate organizations climate action across sectors and value chains; and, adoption is on the rise as more than half of organizations (53%) are moving beyond pilots or proofs of concepts1. AI use cases include improving energy efficiency, reducing dependence on fossil fuels, and optimizing processes to aid productivity. From the 800 sustainability and tech executives surveyed in 400 organizations in the automotive, industrial/process manufacturing, energy and utilities, consumer products, and retail industries, nearly half (48%) are using AI for climate action and as a result have reduced greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) by 12.9%, improved power efficiency by 10.9% and reduced waste by 11.7% since 2017.

The potential positive impact of AI is significant. Organizations can expect to cut GHG emissions by 16% in the next three to five years through AI-driven climate action projects2. Across the five sectors, the research finds that AI-powered use cases can deliver up to 45% of the Paris Accord requirement leading up to 20303. The consumer retail sector demonstrates the most potential for improvement using AI at 45% and wholesale retail the least at 11%. By analyzing more than 70 climate action AI use cases, Capgemini identified the 10 with the biggest impact. Detailed in the report, these include energy consumption and optimization platforms, algorithms to automatically identify defects and predict failures without interrupting operations, and tracing leakages at industrial sites.

Successful deployment requires barriers to be overcomeDespite the considerable potential of AI for climate action, adoption remains low. This could be due to several barriers to progress:

European climate AI champions are leading the pack Only 13% of organizations have aligned their climate vision and strategy with their AI capabilities these are who Capgemini defines as climate AI champions4. Two-fifths of these come from Europe, followed by the Americas and APAC. Climate AI champions are closer to the required Paris Agreement temperature contributions compared with their peers in both scope 1 and 2 emissions and have made considerable gains in applying AI to reduce direct emissions.

A clear knowledge gap is also emerging, as 84% of executives would rather compensate for (or offset) their carbon footprint than deploy technology solutions to reduce their footprint (16%) in the long run. This suggests a lack of awareness for AI climate action potential. According to the report organizations need to invest in AI and data science teams to understand how best to deploy AI to harness it positively for sustainability.

Leverage AIs full climate action potential, but also consider its impactDespite technology advances, AI systems and solutions can potentially consume a lot of power and can generate significant volumes of climate-changing carbon emissions. Before beginning to deploy AI use cases, organizations need to carefully assess the environmental impact, build greater awareness and build AI solutions with sustainability core design principles, to ensure that the benefits of their AI deployments outweigh their emissions cost.

Addressing climate change is everyones responsibility and AI has the potential to make a significant impact, yet only a fraction of organizations are actively using this technology to its full potential, says Anne Laure Thieullent, Vice President, Artificial Intelligence and Analytics Group Offer Leader at Capgemini. For climate action as well, execution starts from the top of the organization, by aligning the use of data & AI to its strategic corporate agenda, with sustainability at the heart of it. Without this clear direction, there is a missing link between intention and technology prioritization and execution. Organizations have the opportunity to prioritize the deployment of AI solutions to address their sustainable goals. Frameworks now exist to educate, build awareness, establish scalable operating models, and manage data to deliver tangible business outcomes with AI applied to climate action. And of course, this requires AI solutions to be designed, built, deployed and monitored with sustainable design principles to ensure overall positive environmental impact.

2 According to the Capgemini survey AI can potentially reduce GHG emissions by an average 16% over the next 3-5 years across Automotive, Manufacturing, Consumer Products, Retail, and Energy and Utilities sectors.

3 Capgemini uses the X-Degree Compatibility (XDC) Model, developed by right., to determine whether GHG emission reductions from AI will help align organizations climate impact to a global warming level below 2C. The XDC Model calculates the contributions of a company, portfolio or any other economic entity to climate change, answering the question: How much global warming could we expect, if the entire world operated at the same economic emission intensity as the entity in question? Results are expressed in a tangible degree Celsius (C) number: the XDC. This science-based climate metric expresses the temperature alignment of a company. The main input parameter for the XDC Model is a metric called Economic Emission Intensity (EEI). The EEI of an organization or a sector establishes a relationship between the emissions produced per generation of one-million-euro Gross Value Added (GVA). Hence, the EEI shows the ability of an organization to decouple their economic growth from their emissions.

4 To understand which organizations have achieved alignment, and which are in pole position to turn AIs climate potential into action and value, Capgemini analyzed all surveyed organizations based on two dimensions climate action vision and AI capabilities execution. Climate AI Champions have mature climate change vision, strategy, and strong record of accomplishment of AI implementation for climate action.

Daedalean Explains Path to Safety-Critical Certification for Artificial Intelligence in Avionics – Aviation Today

The visual positioning system (VPS) runs Daedalean's algorithms to report to flight control equipment or to a human pilot the data on position, altitude, heading, ground and vertical speed, accelerations (and corresponding uncertainties) and gives landing guidance. (Daedalean)

Technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) continue to be a black box for many in the aviation industry, Luuk van Dijk, founder and CEO of Daedalean, said during a Revolution.Aero Town Hall. However, van Dijk sees AI/ML as a way to simplify aviation operations and improve on current human piloting capabilities all while being safety-critical certified.

It was delightful to see a lot of misunderstanding and preconceptions about how impossible this [AI] was, van Dijk said. Our goal is to develop the kind of machine equivalent of human capability, which would call AI so that we can get to this ultimate form of autonomy."

Van Dijk saw a gap in the developing electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) industry four years ago and decided to tackle it, he said during the webinar. While others in the industry were building new energy storage and propulsion systems, he would tackle AI, which he believed others lacked the skill set and risk appetite for.

We looked at machine learning systems, and everybody knows these are black boxes and you can never get them certified because nobody knows how they work, van Dijk said. So I figured while everybody thinks that, we can start working on understanding how they work and not only build the systems that are good enough to make the kind of judgment calls that the human makes today, but also build the tools and the instruments and the mode of thinking for a regulator like EASA [European Union Aviation Safety Agency] and the FAA [Federal Aviation Administration] to see that these things are fit for purpose and safe.

On Apr. 1, Daedalean and EASA jointly published a reportentitled, Concepts of Design Assurance for Neural Networks.

The report is the result of 10 months of work between EASA and Daedalean. According to EASA, the jointly published report is the result of a 10-month collaborative project between the two organizations with the goal of investigating the challenges and concerns of using Neural Networks (NN) in aviation.

AI technology has come a long way, starting with playing chess and then recognizing cats in YouTube videos, van Dijk said. Now that computational power and big data are on the scene, AI is ready to advance to bigger tasks, including safety critical flight controls and navigation systems.

Before AI is ready to pilot an aircraft, there has to be a redefinition of the mystery behind how it works. Van Dijk said he prefers to talk about machine learning systems to get rid of the idea that AI is a magic black box.

You take well-defined subtasks of the art of flying and then you can build a system that meets the VFR [visual flight rules] requirements of seeing other aircraft on visual, even the ones that don't show up on a radar, or ones that can recognize the runway on visual and make the call to abort or not because there's the burning wreck of the previous guy to try to land there, van Dijk said. There are clearly there's no equivalent system today and you have to solve these problems.

Van Dijk admits that the stakes are high for this technology. The first accident will have massive repercussions for the industry, van Dijk said. This is why he says getting a pass for developing a non-deterministic system would be a big mistake.

AI will have to prove it is safer than human piloting, van Dijk said. These systems will have to deal with uncertainty in real-world environments. The avionics industry deals with uncertainty by outlawing it and passing it to the human pilot. While uncertainty is a problem with AI piloted systems, it is also a problem in the environment for human pilots.

The trick is that worrying about the non-determinism is a bit of a red herring because the system itself is perfectly reproducible and analyzable, van Dijk said. What you have to do is you have to show that the data that you trained and tested on in the lab is sufficiently representative of the randomness you're going to find out in the real world.

While certification of AI will not be trivial or easy, van Dijk said, it is not impossible. He compares the path for AI certification to how avionics software is certified by the FAA, DO-178C.

In August, Daedalean confirmed a partnership with business and general aviation aircraft avionics maker Avidyne to develop what they describe as the first ever machine learning-based avionics system. It is designed as several cameras and a powerful computation unit, interfacing to other aircraft electronics, capable of detecting any airborne or ground-based hazard.

Nothing in the process actually guarantees that your system will then fail not more than once in 107 hours of flight, van Dijk said. And what you have to realize is that's already an exception, compared to all the other systems in your aircraft.

It is not a perfect system, van Dijk admits, but the risk is manageable. However, this does not mean that regulators should let up on the pressure to make these systems as safe as possible because this will allow more public acceptance of AI piloting aircraft.

"The paradox is, and this is actually kind of surprising that by going for this harder class of systems, we can actually get to a higher level of safety, provided we do it right, van Dijk said. And then the other thing I think is important is that we, and the public, should not be satisfied until we have actually proven that, so that's actually a very important point. We should not have the attitude that you know the old regulator should step aside and let the modern age take over.

The Intelligent Combination of 5G Technology and Artificial Intelligence – Analytics Insight

5G is the eventual future of the edge. Despite the fact that its as yet quite a while away from widespread deployment, 5G is a critical segment in the development of cloud-computing ecosystems toward more distributed environments. Between now and 2025, the networking industry will contribute about $1 trillion worldwide on 5G, supporting quick worldwide adoption of mobile, edge, and embedded devices in essentially every circle of our lives.

5G will be a prime impetus for the pattern under which more workloads are executed and data dwells on edge devices. It will be a demonstrating ground for cutting-edge artificial intelligence (AI), offering an environment within which data-driven algorithms will control each cloud-driven process, device, and experience. Similarly as huge, AI will be a vital segment in guaranteeing that 5G networks are enhanced from start to finish, 247.

Many believe that 5G internet and artificial intelligence will change the world. Being interlaced on one platform, they will make incredible opportunities and create a totally new point of view. 5G internet isnt just about faster information, it will change our present comprehension of mobile phone applications topsy turvy and influence all parts of our life. Along these lines, critical endeavors are in progress for the commercial deployment of 5G internet.

We have to interweave the innovations of 5G and artificial intelligence since they will help take care of manmade problems and widen our circle of knowledge. We are living in a time of innovative progression but we actually cant get a handle on the causes for our issues.

By joining 5G and artificial intelligence, we can discover solutions for already unsolved problems. It very well may be clarified by taking an example from the health industry.

Studies show that 33% of the population can get some type of cancer. Right now, there is no methodology to show the factors and reasons for the health industry. However, by utilizing 5G, we can store volumes of data on malignancy, and afterward through artificial intelligence, we can try to analyze the patterns and record the factors and attributes of cancer.

To give some context, it is essential to perceive how 5G and AI are embedded together. 5G is depicted as the cutting-edge mobile communication tech of the not so distant future and will improve the speed and integration of different innovations. This will be driven by speed, quality of service, reliability and more that it can do to change the current way we utilize the internet and its related services.

On the other end, we have to comprehend that AI is ready to permit machines and frameworks to work with intelligence levels like that of humans. With 5G helping in the background online simulations for analysis, reasoning, data fitting, clustering and optimizations, AI will turn out to be more reliable and available at the speed of light. Envision that whenever you have trained your frameworks to play out specific tasks, performing analysis will get automatic and quicker while costing far less.

Set forth plainly, 5G speeds up the services that you may have on the cloud, an impact similar to being local to the service. Artificial intelligence will examine similar data faster and can learn quickly to create as per users needs.

5G additionally guarantees huge achievements in conventional mobile communications systems. 5G will improve the capacities of our conventional networks. Indeed, even the speed we get over wire or fiber goes a lot further over a 5G network and advances to help the uses of IoT in different fields, including business, manufacturing, medical services and transportation. 5G will fill in as the essential innovation for future IoT advancements that connect and operate entire organizations, the point being to help differentiated applications with a uniform technical structure.

5G unites digital cellular technology with wireless Long-Term Evolution and Wi-Fi interfaces. At the point when deployed in cross-technology network interfaces, 5G will empower each edge gadget to consistently wander among indoor and wide-zone environments. The innovations adoption may someday result in convergence of the radio spectra for these dissimilar radio channels and combination of network interfaces down to single chips that are agile at keeping up consistent connections over different radio access technologies. These same 5G interfaces will without a doubt be converged with neural network processing circuitry into low-power, low-cost frameworks on chip for some mass-market AI applications.

Where these advances will interact is basically at the edge of the network, by using a blend of processing power, artificial intelligence and advanced connectivity like 5G. The intelligent edge is characterized by devices employed all through a network and near the users or tools creating data that have the advantages of AI processing and 5G network, permitting them to work all the more autonomously and proficiently.

To serve the next generation of distributed AI apps effectively, 5G networks should turn out to be persistently self-mending, self-overseeing, self-securing, self-fixing and self-enhancing. That, thus, depends on implanting machine learning and other AI models to automate application-level traffic routing, quality-of-service assurance, performance management, root-cause analysis, and other operational tasks more scalably, predictably, rapidly, and efficiently than manual methods alone.

That capacity, frequently known as AIOps, will be critical to 5G providing on its guarantee of considerably quicker, more reliable, and more RF-proficient connections than earlier remote innovations. AIOps capacities should be essential to the network virtualization and multi-cloud management suites that are utilized to oversee 5G networks and related applications from start to end.

IIT Madras to offer free online courses on Artificial Intelligence from January 2021. Check out how to join – EdexLive

With the recent surge in the demand for Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Big Data courses more so after the pandemic Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IITM) is offering two free online courses on AI through the National Program on Technology Enhanced Learning (NPTEL) platform. These courses will be conducted by Professor Deepak Khemani from the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the institute. Both the courses are scheduled to begin from January 2021.

Students can enrol for the courses free of cost, however, the institute will conduct an exam before awarding the candidates with e-certificate, which if opted for will cost Rs 1,000. The certificate will be awarded by IITM in collaboration with the NPTEL platform.

Speaking about the importance of learning AI in today's day age, professor Khemani tells us, "A famous computer scientist from Ireland once said AI is the holy grail of computer science. It's a common person's view of computers, they feel that computers can do everything. The user states the problem and the computer solves, that is the broad goal of AI. It is a pretty long-term goal and we are not yet nearly close. However, the availability of data, increase in computing power, use of AI solutions in fields like medical diagnosis, has brought it into the limelight. I personally feel that it is important for students and specifically computer science students to opt for AI courses."

Professor Khemani further goes on to add that, "IIT Madras recently began an online BSc programme in Data Science. We have seen the rising demand for such courses and the AI courses are mainly aimed at people who are working professionals or are pursuing another degree elsewhere. They can attend these courses part-time online and thus increase their qualification. This programme is aimed at helping people acquire new skills and thus become job-ready."

The two courses IITM is offering along with NPTEL includes an eight-week-long course that begins in January 2021 and another which is 12-week-long, which begins from January 18, 2021, and goes on till April 09, 2021. The first course, called AI: Constraint Satisfaction, is designed to teach students how to solve problems in various ways. The course focuses on how AI is inspired by diverse approaches. The course curriculum includes constraint networks, equivalent and projection networks, search methods for solving CSPs, lookahead methods, dynamic variable and value order, model-based systems, model-based diagnosis, truth maintenance systems and more.

The other course is called Artificial Intelligence: Knowledge Representation and Reasoning, which is designed to help candidates become problem solvers. It is mainly for those with some exposure to formal languages, programming and logic. The course curriculum includes Proof Systems, Natural Deduction, Tableau Method, Resolution Method, Description Logic (DL), Structure Matching, Classification, Default Logic, Autoepistemic Logic, Epistemic Logic, Multi-Agent Scenarios and more.

The courses are open to students and professionals across all age groups. "Among the people who have registered, the oldest learners are over 80 years and the majority are around 30 years of age. Most of these individuals are already working. Thus, these courses are not designed to be a primary degree but a secondary one. If you are already pursuing another full-fledged degree even then one can apply for this. It is mainly to help upgrade ones' skills," adds professor Khemani.

Finally, explaining how online platforms are helping educational institutes to offer such courses easily, the professor adds, "Definitely because of the pandemic educational institutes are finding it easier to rely on these platforms. It was happening earlier too, colleges had tied up with ed tech platforms, however, currently, this is higher. The government has also been conducting free courses on SWAYAM, which are extremely helpful for students and working professionals amid such time of crisis."

Identification of prostate gold fiducial markers in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images is challenging when CT images are not available, due to misclassifications from intra-prostatic calcifications. It is also a time consuming task and automated identification methods have been suggested as an improvement for both objectives. Multi-echo gradient echo (MEGRE) images have been utilized for manual fiducial identification with 100% detection accuracy. The aim is therefore to develop an automatic deep learning based method for fiducial identification in MRI images intended for MRI-only prostate radiotherapy. MEGRE images from 326 prostate cancer patients with fiducials were acquired on a 3T MRI, post-processed with N4 bias correction, and the fiducial center of mass (CoM) was identified. A 9 mm radius sphere was created around the CoM as ground truth. A deep learning HighRes3DNet model for semantic segmentation was trained using image augmentation. The model was applied to 39 MRI-only patients and 3D probability maps for fiducial location and segmentation were produced and spatially smoothed. In each of the three largest probability peaks, a 9 mm radius sphere was defined. Detection sensitivity and geometric accuracy was assessed. To raise awareness of potential false findings a 'BeAware' score was developed, calculated from the total number and quality of the probability peaks. All datasets, annotations and source code used were made publicly available. The detection sensitivity for all fiducials were 97.4%. Thirty-six out of thirty-nine patients had all fiducial markers correctly identified. All three failed patients generated a user notification using the BeAware score. The mean absolute difference between the detected fiducial and ground truth CoM was 0.7 0.9 [0 3.1] mm. A deep learning method for automatic fiducial identification in MRI images was developed and evaluated with state-of-the-art results. The BeAware score has the potential to notify the user regarding patients where the proposed method is uncertain.
