Overview: Join us for the webinar "Revolutionising Agriculture with HPC and AI: Real-World Applications", organised by NCC SLING, on Tuesday, September 24th, 2024, starting at 14:00 CET.

The event is designed for businesses, engineers, technology experts, researchers and farmers working in the Agriculture sector who would like to shift their know-how and explore the transformative power of High-Performance Computing (HPC) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) in agriculture. Discover how these advanced technologies drive innovation, improve crop yields, enhance resource management, and promote sustainable farming practices. Learn from real-world case studies and see why HPC and AI are essential tools for addressing the future challenges of agriculture, from precision farming to climate resilience.

Free entry. Registration is required. Participants will receive Zoom link after Indico registration.

 

Agenda and speakers:

1. 14:00-14:20 

Stevan Čakić, DigitalSmart: AIoT and HPC Fusion for Sustainable Farms

This presentation will provide insights into the AIMHiGH project, which leverages high-performance computing (HPC) and deep learning to develop advanced AI/ML models for edge camera devices in next-generation poultry farms. The project aims to create predictive models for IoT/AI-based solutions in the poultry sector, optimizing farm management and improving operational efficiency.

2. 14:20-14:40 

Tomaž Bokan, ITC MS:  Embark on an exploration of cutting-edge AI tools revolutionizing the agrifood sector, showcased through innovative EU co-funded projects

Exploration of AI-supported tools in the agrifood sector will be showcased through examples from EU co-funded projects. The session will highlight how AI-driven innovations are transforming precision farming, food processing, and supply chain optimization, enhancing both efficiency and sustainability.

3. 14:40-15:00

Federico Battini, IFAB:  Improving weather forecasts with limited effort: a classifier-based approach

The presentation will outline the development of a weather classifier that, given two numerical weather prediction models, is able to select the most accurate model for each grid cell and forecast time step, thus improving forecast quality with limited effort.

4. 15:00-15:20

Prof. Dr. Janez Perš, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, UL: Using HPC and AI for Precision Agriculture in Tomato Monitoring and Growth

The presentation will discuss how High-Performance Computing (HPC) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be applied in agriculture, with an emphasis on close-range monitoring of tomato crops for growth optimization. It will focus on practical issues when using image segmentation and multispectral imaging, specifically for detailed, on-the-ground data collection.


 

Opis: Pridružite se nam na spletnem seminarju "Revolutionising Agriculture with HPC and AI: Real-World Applications", ki ga organizira NCC SLING v torek, 24. septembra 2024, s pričetkom ob 14:00 uri.

Dogodek je namenjen podjetjem, inženirjem, tehnološkim strokovnjakom, raziskovalcem in kmetom, ki delujejo v kmetijskem sektorju in želijo nadgraditi svoje znanje ter spoznati možnosti uporabe visokozmogljivostnega računalništva (HPC) in umetne inteligence (AI) v kmetijstvu. Odkrijte, kako takšne tehnologije spodbujajo inovacije, izboljšujejo možnosti vzgoje pridelkov, optimizirajo upravljanje virov in podpirajo trajnostne kmetijske prakse. Spoznajte primere iz resničnega sveta in ugotovite, zakaj sta HPC in AI ključni orodji za reševanje prihodnjih izzivov v kmetijstvu, vse od preciznega kmetovanja, pa do odpornosti na podnebne spremembe

Udeležba je brezplačna, registracija pa obvezna tukaj. Zoom link udeleženci dobijo, ko se registrirajo preko Indica.
