Artificial Intelligence Forum 2018Get started with AI!
WEKA Fachmedien welcomed around 160 participants to the 2018 Artificial Intelligence Forum in Stuttgart on May 17. At the 'AI in the factory' slot, it became clear that companies should get started so as not to miss out on the AI bandwagon.

The third keynote speech by Dr. Bernd Kosch from Fujitsu was very practice-oriented. He reported on how a manufacturer of turbine blades for wind turbines uses neural networks for quality assurance. As the turbine blades are only produced in small numbers, the challenge here was that only a few data sets were available for training. The method of "transfer learning" using a convolutional network nevertheless leads to a high error detection rate and significant time and cost savings of around 80%.
