Project Portfolio Manager ‘Digitized Products’ > Joboolo BE :
Company : Flanders Make Location : Kortrijk Flanders From : Talent BE
In the research track “Digitized Products” we are exploring how to develop the next generation of intelligent cyber-physical systems.
We cover a wide range of applications:
such as agricultural machines, industrial machines, automotive, off-road working vehicles , … Can we get new insights by analyzing the operational data? Can we automate the way the customers give feedback on the operation of their machine? Can we provide design support for the next generation of improved machines? Can machine operation be optimized by capturing human operators know-how? The end game:
new methods, software, and tools for designers and operators of cyberphysical systems.
Together we will radically change the way next-generation cyberphysical systems are being conceptualized, developed, validated and continuously improve their operation Topics include:
eg.
learning from field data, failure analysis and anomaly prediction, generative, discriminative and predictive AI, knowledge graphs efficient test and optimization methods,… .
