Engineers create ‘smart’ system to prevent future infrastructure disasters

When the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, Maryland, collapsed on March 26, 2024, engineers and city managers around the U.S. and world scrambled to assess the safety of infrastructure in their communities. Michigan State University researchers have developed a “deploy-and-forget” system that combines sensors with artificial intelligence, or AI, to assess the health of …

Neural networks can recognize production processes by video to enhance industrial safety and efficiency

A research team from the Skoltech AI Center and Samara University have developed a system for automatically separating the stages of production processes from video streams. Industrial cameras will detect deviations in the production process themselves and even prevent accidents. By employing the self-supervised learning approach, the cost of manual data markup can be reduced …
