Decentralised AI at the edge, an ongoing fight<\/h4><\/div><\/div>[vc_empty_space][vc_column_text css=””]This talk will explore the usage of artificial intelligence in the edge-cloud continuum by showcasing the results of a custom Deep Reinforcement Learning solution implemented within the framework of a Horizon Europe project (CODECO) to improve energy consumption in Kubernetes clusters. A Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning (MARL) approach that extends the original DRL model with the aim of guaranteeing data privacy and providing more robust solutions in multi-cluster scenarios will also be presented.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” bg_type=”bg_color” bg_color_value=”#ffffff” css=”.vc_custom_1683718841357{padding-top: 30px !important;padding-bottom: 30px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/4″][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=”65083″ img_size=”full” css=””][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

Operation of drinking water networks through deep reinforcement learning<\/h4><\/div><\/div>[vc_empty_space][vc_column_text css=””]The operation of transport and distribution water networks is of capital importance for the companies operating the service. The way the elements of these neworks (pumps, valves, tanks) are operated defines the quality of the service to the final user as well as the safety of the infrastructure, the hydraulic efficiency or the operational costs. In this session we will explain how we have addressed, by means of deep reinforcement learning techniques, two of the main problems in the management of drinking water networks: pressure regulation and pump scheduling.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” bg_type=”bg_color” bg_color_value=”#ffffff” css=”.vc_custom_1683718841357{padding-top: 30px !important;padding-bottom: 30px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/4″][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image image=”65516″ img_size=”full” css=””][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n

Practical Implementation of AI for mosquito surveillance with Mosquito Alert (MA)<\/h4><\/div><\/div>[vc_empty_space][vc_column_text css=””]Dive into the practical application of actionable AI for mosquito surveillance and public health management with Mosquito Alert (MA), a citizen science initiative for monitoring disease vectors. Explore how MA utilises AI for rapid mosquito detection and classification. Discover how the platform provides open access to real-time data on mosquito distribution and breeding sites via dynamic maps, empowering public institutions to reduce breeding sites. Uncover MA’s role as an early warning system, delivering information to national supervisors upon discovering new mosquito species. This session delves into the pragmatic implementation of AI for autonomous mosquito control and public health governance.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space]
