Ask the “personal assistant” that sits on a shelf in your living room for the location of the closest pizza place. 助理回答了三个选择. 在手机里输入你的偏好,然后, 一旦你上了车, 导航应用会引导你去那里. While your devices gave you information using artificial intelligence (AI), you made the decisions. 但人工智能并不总是如此. Beyond the conveniences it brings, AI in its many different forms has applications across our lives.

作为探索潜在人工智能服务的一部分, faculty at 十大网投平台信誉排行榜阿尔图纳分校 have joined other universities and businesses in the 人工智能创新联盟, “working to promote cooperation between companies working on AI applications and the universities,Jungwoo Ryoo说, 十大网投平台信誉排行榜阿尔图纳分校商业部门的负责人, 工程, and Information Sciences and Technology and professor of information sciences and technology. “One of the goals is to set up incubators at the universities involved to illustrate how AI can be used in companies.”

企业非常感兴趣的是“机器学习”,” a form of AI where a machine can actually learn something and make decisions based on what it has learned. 布鲁斯•穆勒, 十大网投平台信誉排行榜阿尔图纳分校工程学高级讲师, 教授EMET 430, 高级自动化课程. 他说:“我试着跟上新事物。. “我的领域是制造业.” At a conference in Toronto, “I started communication with a company involved in manufacturing. My goal has been to try to integrate a number of labs into my EMET 430 course."离开这段关系, Muller was able to create a lab for his students in 阿尔图纳 that utilized machine learning.

他继续说道:“最初的尝试是一个管道穿线项目. Inspecting the threading in newly manufactured pipes has always required a human eye. “What the company wanted was a way to use machine learning to see if the threading was right—a chip, 削弱, 等.穆勒说。. “We had a camera system and turntable so you can put the short pipe on the turntable. 我们开始了解那是什么感觉.“就像其他很多事情一样, 这个项目因大流行病而中断, 所以学生们并没有达到大家的期望.

穆勒丝毫没有被吓倒. In all, he has done three labs with his students that involved machine learning. 另一家公司生产冰箱后面板, requiring “top dies and bottom dies to do the bending and punching as needed. 工人们安排模具,”他解释说. If they don’t set the dies correctly, it could be “an $8,000 mistake. What the company wanted was to use machine learning so that a computer could look at the dies and see where the punches were and say, 实际上, 他们都在该在的地方, 大胆尝试吧.’”

In the lab, the students didn’t get to that stage, but it was still a success. “他们拍了照片, 使用电脑上已有的软件, 他们告诉电脑一拳是什么样子的穆勒说。. 计算机学会了. They annotated the pictures so that the computer could see what they did and fed that into an algorithm to train an AI learning model to recognize punches on a die.“当然可以。, the final step was testing it: “They fed in a bunch of pictures of dies and the computer got 100%.”

Ryoo recognizes the benefits of bringing companies’ problems into the classroom and applying “emerging technologies” such as AI. 每个人都赢了. He says Muller teaching “how AI can be applied to industry problems” means students learn about real-life industry problems. “现在学生对这些技术了解得越多越好.” Another inter-academic benefit: “This is a great example in terms of collaboration in IT. 工程越来越需要IT.”

Another 十大网投平台信誉排行榜阿尔图纳分校 faculty member interested in the benefits of machine learning is 克里斯•马丁,机械工程副教授. “我有制造业的背景,他说, which gives him a valuable perspective on the potential for AI and industry. 他称自己是“人工智能领域的新手”,” but he also recognizes that his own present research “is going down an AI route.” Fortunately, “machine learning has progressed so far you can be a novice and still do great stuff.”

马丁看到了将工业和大学联系起来的好处. “一家公司可能非常擅长人工智能. Another company may be really good at manufacturing, but they don’t realize they need AI.“财团可以将这些公司与学者聚集在一起, 马丁说, 都很擅长深入研究问题. 我们需要所有的参与者参与进来.” And despite his self-declared “novice” status he too has much to offer: “My work is to be part of the conversation in our collaboration.”

To continue to participate in that conversation, Ryoo, Muller, and Martin will be attending 2021年发展,即人工智能创新联盟(人工智能创新联盟)的年度会议. Ryoo and Muller will be part of a panel discussion on “Keeping up with Artificial Intelligence in Academia,” and Martin will be a panelist for the “AI and Manufacturing” session.
