3rd webinar on “Closed Loop Automation for Networked Systems”

On the 11th of December 2023 14-16.30, AI@EDGE will hold the 3rd webinar of the AI@EDGE webinar series, titled “Closed Loop Automation for Networked Systems“.

In this webinar, we will present a closed-loop automation system making use of AI to automatically mitigate anomalous states of the connect-compute software infrastructure. We will describe different functional blocks of the algorithmic framework, and in particular the anomaly detection module using federated learning, the AI function scheduling to meeting detection performance targets while mitigating AIF stragglers, the data-pipeline system design to ensure high accuracy, real-time data preprocessing and arrival, and a reinforcement learning framework to automatically find reconfiguration intents. The webinar will end with a preliminary demonstration of key system blocks and will highlight further research in this area. 

The webinar will be introduced by Stefano Secci, head of the ROC team, and will be run in hybrid mode: live from Cnam, Paris, France, in room 17.1.14, 292 rue St Martin, and online at this link.
