Can Analog Make A Comeback?
By Brian Bailey - 09 Jun, 2022 - Comments: 3

We live in an analog world dominated by digital processing, but that could change. Domain specificity, and the desire for greater levels of optimization, may provide analog compute with some significant advantages — and the possibility of a comeback. For the last four decades, the advantages of digital scaling and flexibility have pushed the dividing line between analog and digital closer ... » read more

Active Learning: Integrating Natural Intelligence Into Artificial Intelligence
By Oliver Gnepper - 09 Jun, 2022 - Comments: 0

Today, very few people would likely deny the fact that data can present major added value for companies. But analyzing data from production processes reveals the incompleteness of data collection and the associated reduced potential of the data that can be leveraged. Typical shortcomings include: Incomplete representation of processes in the dataspace, Inadequate connection of processes... » read more
