Human-Centered AI for smart farming BOKU Tulln March, 9, 2023

On March, 9, 2023 at the BOKU Tulln, we were guest speakers at the traditional Schlumberger lectures. For us a wonderful opportunity to show what Human-Centered AI can do for smart farming. Thanks to the organizers Michaela Griesser and Astrid Forneck from the Department of Crop Sciences (DNW) lead by Hans-Peter Kaul. Looking forward to help to discover the causality of berry shrivel (Traubenwelke) with methods from deep geometric learning for knowledge discovery from point cloud data.

July, 5, 2022 BOKU HCAI AI for smart forestry workshop

Our new BOKU Human-Centered AI Lab Vienna Area in beautiful Tulln/Donau, Lower Austria, is taking shape and our mission to connect Lower Austria with Vienna starts: Our first visitors in Lower Austria were from Lower Austria. In our little workshop with colleagues from the University of Applied Sciences St. Pölten we discussed cool topics of digitaltransformation for smart agriculture and forestry, especially some challenges and future aspects of artificial intelligence/machine learning for solving problems in smart forestry, e.g. road trafficability with the help of cyber-physical systems and sensors, or the grand challenge and hot topic of “embodied intelligence”, e.g.: “move to timber – grab the timber – move back to truck” which is easy for humans, but practically impossible for current artificial intelligence – and one solution is in making use of the human-in-the-loop, see our very recent position paper:
