TALK: “Artificial Intelligent Sensors at the core of Cyber-Physical-Systems. From theory to practical applications”

On Friday 16th, January, Danilo Pau will be coming to DEIB to discuss the kind of Artifical Intelligent sensors STMicroelectronics is developing.

The talk starts at 2:30pm in Alpha Room (building 24, via Golgi 40).

Pau (POLIMI, 1992)  is Senior Principal Engineer at STM, working on various R&D topics such as video coding, embedded graphics, computer vision and deep learning in Advanced System Technology.

Abstract of the talk:

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) are becoming, without pace, more pervasive into embedded systems. Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Deep Learning are mostly confined into the cloud, where unlimited computing resources seems to be available and evolving tirelessly. Unfortunately, a layered architecture in which dumb sensors are attached to the cloud would become quickly too centralized, poorly scalable and slowly responsive in the IoT expected scenario that will deploy hundreds of billions of sensors communicating through low data rate networks.
In that context, STMicroelectronics is developing solutions to bring Artificial Intelligence closer to the sensors and potentially within same package. This talk will review new intelligent technological solutions and mechanisms under development and publicly announced, namely STM32CUBE.AI. The talk will tell how they represent the key ingredients needed to design the current and future generation of artificial intelligent cyber-physical embedded systems and derived applications based on STMicroelectronics heterogeneous sensors, micro controllers and SoCs. In particular, aspects related on how address current interoperability, productivity and constrained embedded resource gaps will be discussed with practical examples based on STM32CUBE.AI. Moreover, the investigation and design of adaptive and cognitive computational-intelligence techniques able to learn, adopting artificial neural networks, and operate in nonstationary environments will be introduced. Finally, the deployment of credible networked intelligent cyber-physical systems, able to operate in time varying environments, will be also disclosed.
