【2022 Application Example】 Even the United Nations is on board! Yoyo Data Application captures global business opportunities with agricultural data

Nearly 2,000 days in the fields have made Yoyo Data Application a top player in Taiwan’s agricultural data sector Their comprehensive grasp of crop yields, production periods, and prices has enabled them to collaborate with the United Nations The service area for agricultural land skyrocketed from 24 hectares to over 6,000 hectares in less than three years—a 250-fold increase For Wu Junxiao, founder and CEO of Yoyo Data Application, aligning with global environmental trends and becoming a data company at the intersection of climate technology and the green economy to serve the global market is his ultimate entrepreneurial goal Wu Junxiao, originally an engineer, joined the Industrial Technology Research Institute in 2010, where he honed his profound technical and data science analytic skills 'At that time, I was working in data analysis engineering, and almost all data-related materials would be directed to me Additionally, I worked on indoor cultivation boxes, planting vegetables and mushrooms, hence planting the seed of entrepreneurship by integrating agriculture with data analysis,' Wu recalls Since 2016, Wu Junxiao has been frequently visiting farms to 'embed' himself among farmers and agricultural researchers, chatting and sharing information systematically, which quickly established his agricultural know-how Solid data analysis capabilities have even convinced the United Nations In 2017, he left the Institute to start his own business and founded Yoyo Data Application in 2019 Today, many agricultural businesses are his clients, with service areas rapidly climbing from 24 hectares to over 6,000 hectares, expected to surpass 7,000 hectares in 2022 His clientele includes markets in Japan, Central America, and even entities under the United Nations like the World Farmers Organization, which utilizes the 'Yoyo Crop Algorithm System' supported by Yoyo Data How exactly does Yoyo Data Application manage to impress even UN agencies The 'Yoyo Crop Algorithm System' developed by Yoyo Data Application accurately predicts the production period, yield, and prices Firstly, due to Wu Junxiao's precise mastery over agricultural data, Yoyo Data Application's clients don't necessarily need sensors or other hardware devices 'Sensors are expensive and if you buy cheap devices, you just collect a lot of noise or flawed data, which is useless,' Wu explains He continues, 'Collecting data doesn't necessarily require sensors our data solutions can solve problems more directly and effectively' For instance, one of Yoyo Data Application's products, the Yoyo Money Report Agri-price Linebot, developed in collaboration with LINE in 2020, gathers data on origin, wholesale, and terminal prices spanning over 10 years, driven by Yoyo Data’s proprietary AI algorithms This enables the system to autonomously learn about agricultural product trading prices, using big data and AI to perform price prediction analysis, thereby helping buyers reduce transaction risks and expanding the data application to the entire agricultural supply chain Regarding banana prices, the accuracy of price predictions increased from the original 70 to 998 Wu Junxiao notes that both buyers and farmers are very sensitive to prices Now, through the Yoyo Money Report service, both buyers and farmers can precisely understand the fluctuations in agricultural product prices Yoyo Data can also provide customers with optimal decision-making advice based on predictive models for crop growth, yield, and price estimations Currently, price predictions cover 28 types of crops Precise estimates of production periods and price fluctuations allow Yoyo Data to provide differentiated services based on data analysis The 'Yoyo Crop Algorithm System' provided by Yoyo Data Application incorporates a 'Parameter Bank', usually collecting 200-300 parameters, not just straightforward data like temperature and humidity, but also data divided according to the physiological characteristics of the crops Through effective dynamic data algorithms, it can accurately calculate when crops will flower and when they can be harvested, what the yield will be, and so forth For instance, the prediction accuracy of the broccoli production period is 0-4 days, with the flowering period predicted this year to be precisely 0 days, perfectly matching the actual flowering time in the field In these dynamic calculations, a 7-day range is considered reasonable, and the average error value of Yoyo Data's predictions typically ranges from 2-4 days, with most crop production period accuracies above 80 Through effective dynamic data algorithms, over 120 global crops can have their production periods and yields accurately estimated Using these effective dynamic data algorithms can set estimates for production quantities, helping adjust at the production end Yoyo Data Application's clientele primarily includes exporters of fruit crops like pineapples, bananas, guavas, mangos, pomelos, sugar apples, Taiwan's agricultural production is highly homogenized, often leading to a rush to plant the same crops and resulting in price crashes Yoyo Data Application helps clients differentiate their offerings Thus, Wu Junxiao positions his company as a boutique digital consultant, carefully selecting clients for quality over quantity He notes that Taiwanese agricultural clients focus on how to improve yield rates, even categorizing yield rates by quality, aiming for high-quality, specialized export markets whereas international clients prioritize maximizing per-unit yields, showing different operational approaches in domestic and international markets In addition to agricultural fruit, Yoyo Data Application has also extended its services to the fisheries sector, including species like milkfish, sea bass, and white shrimp, all using the same system to establish various parameters related to the growth of fish and shrimp, such as when to feed and when to harvest, and the anticipated yield, timing, and prices Yoyo Data Application harnesses the power of data to create miracles in smart agriculture In response to the company's rapid development, Yoyo Data Application introduced venture capital funds in 2021 to expand its staff and promote its business Wu Junxiao states that in response to the global trend towards net zero carbon emissions by 2050, he plans to help clients plant carbon in the soil, effectively retaining carbon in the land while also connecting clients to carbon trading platforms, creating environmental business opportunities together Wu Junxiao says that from the start of his entrepreneurial journey, he positioned the company as a global entity, thus continuous international collaborations are planned As a data company serving a global clientele and focused on climate technology and the green economy, this represents Wu’s expectations for himself and his company's long-term goals Yoyo Data Application founder and CEO Wu Junxiao「Translated content is generated by ChatGPT and is for reference only Translation date:2024-05-19」

【2021 Application Example】 Advancing to Smart Logistics 5.0: Hsinchu Logistics Delivers Medical Materials with Ultra-High Efficiency

After incorporating AI technology, traditional logistics companies have seen significant improvements in transportation efficiency and reductions in transportation costs, especially in the transfer of medical materials which involves timely service and rights of hospitals and patients The implementation of intelligent logistics can save medical material businesses the cost of constructing GDP warehouses and other expenses up to millions A major domestic logistics leader, Hsinchu Transport HCT, owns a fleet of 3,500 vehicles and a storage area of 60,000 square meters, providing customized logistics solutions including logistics, commerce, finance, information, distribution, storage, and processing The company handles up to 580,000 parcels per day, with a maximum capacity reaching 900,000 parcels, making the enhancement of transshipment efficiency crucial for HCT Medical materials transportation at hospitals need optimization of current operational processes and enhancements in systematization and intelligence Especially the transportation of hospital medical materials, which encounters various challenges Medical materials suppliers need to cater to varying customer product demands, temperature requirements, and delivery times through multiple logistics providers This highly depends on the experience and careful control of operations staff Whether it is the product shipment or actual logistics process, each step must be interconnected Any human errors can impact the service timing and rights of the hospitals and patients Thus, all concerned businesses, along with the government and hospitals, are working to optimize current operational processes and elevate the level of systematization, automation, and intelligence to minimize service errors and cost losses HCT's distribution process prior to AI implementation Currently, with the government's push for standardized platform operations on the demand side of hospitals, supply-side businesses collaborate through data coordination to improve the accuracy and efficiency of product shipments, enhancing operational quality and management benefits at the demand side At the same time, some businesses are also investing in the standardization and systematization of internal operational processes, thus enhancing operational efficiency and quality In the freight logistics sector, logistics companies' warehouse staff need to expend labor to control different logistics shipment operations If they often receive emergency task notifications for shipments to medical facilities, they usually depend on small regional logistics providers to provide customized delivery services Although this improves delivery times, it does not allow for integrated informational services The new GDP regulations for medical materials require suppliers to undergo GDP compliance certification Therefore, Hsinchu Transport, assisted by the Ministry of Economic Affairs' AI coaching program, not only extends existing logistics services compliant with GDP regulations but will also use data integration and optimized AI technologies to help medical material businesses streamline and improve their logistics operations Complex logistics issues are solved using the Simulated Annealing SA algorithm To meet the 'Good Distribution Practices for Medical Devices,' Hsinchu Transport is not only actively introducing new logistics vehicles but will also implement artificial intelligence-based mathematical optimization technologies to assist in intelligent scheduling at nationwide business points and transshipment stations They aim to optimize the routing of medical materials between business points or regions thereby enhancing efficiency in the distribution process Currently, during the transshipment process of medical materials at Hsinchu Transport, detachable tractor heads and containers are used Each business point and transshipment station differ in location design and staffing, impacting the throughput per unit of time Furthermore, daily cargo conditions size, destination vary, and due to these fluctuating and distinct demands, the deployment of tractor heads and containers changes accordingly Under these circumstances, Hsinchu Transport relies on past experiences to schedule departures at each satellite depot and adjusts daily according to the cargo needs Due to the reliance on empirical scheduling, it is often difficult to consider all variables and considerations, leaving room for improvement in the current departure schedules The cargo delivery planning inherently constitutes an NP-Hard problem, difficult to solve with traditional analytical methods Hsinchu Transport, in collaboration with Singular Infinity, utilizes the Simulated Annealing SA algorithm to find solutions The new logistic service introduced by Hsinchu Transport is 'GDP Container Shift Planning' This planning involves estimating future volumes of medical materials between stations and scheduling container truck shifts accordingly, ensuring timely and quality delivery of medical materials while maximizing operational benefits and reducing travel distances Hsinchu Transport introduces AI-optimized shift planning, constructing the most efficient route from its origin to destination Hsinchu Transport introduces 'Optimized Shift Planning' service, reducing transportation costs by 5 The introduction method involves using cloud software services Hsinchu Transport regularly inputs 'Interchange Item Tables' from station to station into the 'Optimized Shift Planning' service After setting the algorithm parameters, a GDP container shift schedule is generated At the same time, developing a Hsinchu Transport medical material scheduling system allows Hsinchu Transport's medical transport units to compile suitable schedules through the Interchange Item Tables Under the same level of service, it's estimated that this can reduce transportation costs by 5, saving medical material businesses millions in construction costs for GDP warehouses and distribution Due to its requirements for sanitation, temperature, and its fragility, the transportation and transshipment of medical materials should be minimized to reduce exposure and risk However, logistics efficiency and costs must still be considered AI designs the most efficient route for each cargo from its origin to destination, effectively completing daily transportation tasks In response to the future high development demand of industrial logistics, distribution and transshipment AI optimization will be a key issue Through this project, a dedicated project promotion organization will be established, staffed with AI technology, IT, and process domain talents After accumulating implementation experience, the application of AI will gradually expand, comprehensively optimizing and transforming Hsinchu Transport's operational system, and partnering with AIOT and various AI domain partners to accelerate and expand the achievement of benefits「Translated content is generated by ChatGPT and is for reference only Translation date:2024-05-19」

【2020 Application Example】 "AI Color Recognition and Cost Optimization Control System" automatically recognizes colors, breaks through the traditional color grading model, significantly reduces costs, and improves yield!

Mixing new colors relies on the experience of master craftsmen The so-called "computer color matching" in the paint industry is simply the selection of "existing colors" for mixing, but there is actually no way to mix paint for a ldquonew colorrdquo and it all relies on the experience of master craftsmen Hence, it is necessary to start from scratch when a new color is encountered, which consumes a lot of manpower and time Moreover, due to the different color mixing habits of each master craftsman, the cost can be significantly different despite producing the same result The trilogy when paint factories face the crises of transformation I Lack of color mixing standards Generally, when traditional paint factories produce new colors, they will use a "spectrophotometer" to measure the LAB value of the sample color, and then the paint mixer will mix the paint of that color based on past experience After color mixing is completed, the instrument will be used to test the LAB value and C and H wavelength This process does not have a complete system and database records, and there are not standards for color mixing II Production costs are difficult to control Paint factories produce many pigments with different materials and functions, and the cost of paint will vary depending on the "color masterbatch material" used Even if the color number of the masterpiece is the same, the cost will be different if the ratio of the color masterbatch is different Paint mixers do not have a set of color mixing standards when mixing paint, making it difficult to control production costs III The color grading process is lengthy and personnel training is difficult As instruments cannot replace manual color mixing, the training of a paint mixer requires years of experience in paint mixing, familiarity with chromatology, as well as basic understanding of hue, saturation, and brightness If there is no basic reference color values when mixing paint, the paint mixer must spend a lot of time repeatedly mixing colors, resulting in a loss from time cost Developing an "AI Color Recognition and Cost Optimization Control System" The paint factory engaged in industry-academia collaboration with the Department of Computer Science amp Information Engineering of Chaoyang University of Technology through CDIT Information Co Ltd, and utilized the university's AI research capabilities to jointly develop the "AI Color Identification and Cost Optimization Control System" It established a database of "paint color numbers" and "color masterbatch material cost," and analyzes the optimal color mixing and optimal cost formula through data mining methods The paint mixer can refer to the formula analyzed by the system for color mixing, and then input the formula into the system after paint mixing is completed The formula is fed back to the basic database and an "artificial neural network model" is used by the system for deep learning, establishing a color grading standardization system for cost control and data collection, so as to solve the current difficulties faced by paint factories In the early stages of system development, CDIT planned the system requirements of the paint factory, established the system architecture and system database, and then worked with Chaoyang University of Technology on the implementation of model functions for the application of data mining and artificial neural network After the system is completed, CDIT will assist the paint factory in system testing and correction The system will be introduced after correction and testing are completed, and training on system use will be provided to ensure the correct use of the system System Screen Differences before and after using the system Expand new markets for the paint industry to see the paint industry thrive The "AI Color Recognition and Cost Optimization Control System" collects the color mixing formulas of paint mixers, establishes a paint color masterbatch formula database, and records the cost of each color number The system's deep learning function is then used with a spectrophotometer to analyze the optimal color mixing formula for each data entry, so that the paint factory can control the cost of paint mixing The optimal color mixing formula recommended by the system increases the speed of paint mixing and increases output value Future benefits include The improvement in product yield reduces customer complaints and improves customer satisfaction The breakthrough in the traditional color mixing model improves corporate image Improves the efficiency of paint mixing, and allows the remaining time to be invested in training to enhance the professional capabilities of personnel It will also allow the joint expansion of new markets with the paint industry and learning of new application technologies, and promote them to other paint companies, enhancing the industry's overall competitiveness to see the paint industry thrive

【2021 Solutions】 Specializing in the smart medical market, Kaiyuan Intelligent Manufacturing and hundreds of doctors "struggle for feelings"

The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence AI technology and the new coronavirus pneumonia Covid-19 epidemic have catalyzed the vigorous development of smart medical care Kaiyuan Intelligent Manufacturing Company, which is committed to the research and development of Open AI, focuses on the development of the smart medical market The company spent two years I visited doctors one by one over the course of a year, "struggled emotionally" with hundreds of doctors, and compiled a "Smart Medical Question Bank", which is like an AI martial arts guide in the medical field All medical and engineering-related questions can be found in this book answer Establishing a common language with doctors can help break into the development of the medical field According to the definition of the World Health Organization WHO, smart medicine is an extension of digital medicine It is the application of information and communication ICT technology in the medical and health fields Its scope includes medical health information, personal medicine, telemedicine and Care, mobile medicine, wearable devices, etc The growth potential of the global SaMD market is amazing, and major technology companies are rushing in Among them, the SaMD Software as a Medical Device market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 6930 during the forecast period from 2019 to 2026 Due to the endless market potential, world-class industrial and information communication companies are actively rushing to enter However, the barriers to entry in the medical industry are not low How to talk to doctors has become the first problem Open AI Fab, founded in May 2019, is a consistent winner of the AI GO "Industrial Problem-Producing, Innovative Problem-Solving" and AI HUB AI New Talent Selection Competitions in the AI Program of the Industrial Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Huang Mingshi, founder and CEO of Kaiyuan Intelligent Manufacturing, said that the company continues to accumulate experience through projects and competitions In the field of smart medical care, "doctors" are important and key figures Kaiyuan Intelligent Manufacturing not only recruits emergency room doctors to serve as medical directors , as a bridge of communication with the medical community, the company team visited hundreds of doctors in two years to understand the needs and enter the huge market of smart medical care "Doctors are very smart and their time is precious Answering his questions quickly and accurately in a short period of time and building mutual trust are important keys to whether the two parties can have substantial cooperation" Huang Mingshi further emphasized that doctors also have a strong interest in AI There is unlimited imagination However, AI technology that uses deep learning requires doctors’ annotation If doctors cannot assist in annotation, AI will be of no use The first step in establishing communication with doctors is to establish appropriate expectations for AI Through cooperation with Northern Medical Center and Southern Medical Center, Kaiyuan Intelligent Manufacturing has two relatively mature medical AI services "Da Vinci Surgery Organ Identification Solution" and "Heart Failure and Structural Abnormality Solution" The Da Vinci surgical organ recognition solution uploads Da Vinci surgical video files Doctors can choose the images they want to recognize, and the AI model will identify different organs, nerves, blood vessels, etc from all the images together Da Vinci image recognition AI can be applied to obstetrics and gynecology or otolaryngology Da Vinci image recognition AI was originally used in obstetrics and gynecology The open source intelligent manufacturing team spent more than half a year adjusting the model of Da Vinci organ image recognition in obstetrics and gynecology around the clock, and then found UNET AI from Open Source open source code Model, a large number of model optimizations have been carried out At this stage, four of the eight human organs can achieve an accuracy of 85 For this year’s AI GO competition, Kaiyuan Intelligent Manufacturing also assisted the Department of Otolaryngology at the Central Medical Center to establish Da Vinci organ image recognition In just one month, from the initial discussion, data collection, data annotation, and AI model creation , and finally obtained empirical results, gradually shortening the learning curve through the process of customizing AI The time taken by AI to calculate cardiac ejection fraction is shortened from 20 minutes to "seconds" In addition, solutions for heart failure and structural abnormalities will become the first step in the productization of open source intelligent manufacturing AI Huang Mingshi said that when the cardiac surgery department of Southern Medical Center performs cardiac catheterization on patients, doctors also need to take left ventricular photography After injecting the contrast agent into the patient, the doctor can draw the outline of the heart through the diastolic and systolic images of the heart at different times , and calculate the cardiac ejection fraction There are two shortcomings in the traditional method First, drawing and labeling require a lot of time for doctors Second, doctors use manual drawing to calculate the cardiac ejection fraction The standards are inconsistent, resulting in the lack of objective standards The solution for heart failure and structural abnormalities through deep automatic learning technology not only shortens the time for doctors to draw the outline of the heart and calculate the cardiac ejection fraction from 20 minutes to "seconds", it can also help doctors analyze the ventricles abnormal conditions, and establish an early warning platform for heart failure and structural abnormalities Heart failure and structural abnormality solutions will become the first step in the productization of open source intelligent manufacturing AI In the process of communicating with doctors, Huang Mingshi found that the biggest difficulty for doctors is to obtain and label cases after de-identification, which takes a lot of time Taking the left ventricular photographic film as an example, a patient In a two-minute video, there are 30 photos that need to be annotated in one second The number of photos that need to be annotated in two minutes is as high as 3,600 photos It takes a lot of time for just one patient, not to mention that a doctor may have dozens of patients bit, it takes more time In addition to collecting questions and answers from interviews with hundreds of doctors and establishing a question bank, Kaiyuan Intelligent Manufacturing also trains engineers and data scientists to learn data annotation by doctors After repeated confirmation with doctors, the main data annotation work at this stage can be left to engineers Practical solution to doctors’ problems In smart medical care, due to different departments, racial differences, different conditions of each patient, and different hospital needs, it is difficult to produce a universal and standardized AI model in the short term, and customization is the best way Kaiyuan Intelligent Manufacturing adopts the Open AI method to shorten part of the development time and focuses on technological breakthroughs in customized AI model construction The developed AI modules can extend their application fields, which is also one of the company's competitive advantages Medical devices are independent from pharmaceutical affairs laws and obtaining medical device software certification is the top priority In order to develop Taiwan's smart medical industry, the Food and Drug Administration TFDA of the Ministry of Health and Welfare passed the "Medical Device Management Act" in December 2019, which will separate the management of medical devices from the "Pharmaceutical Affairs Act" and will be implemented in May 2021 It will come into effect on January 1st Medical device software SaMD requires product developers to obtain license approval from local competent authorities before it can be sold in local medical channels Therefore, Kaiyuan Intelligent Manufacturing will prioritize obtaining SaMD licenses in the United States and Taiwan Huang Mingshi pointed out that Kaiyuan Intelligent Manufacturing just received angel round financing in 2020, and it is expected to complete the Pre-A round of financing by the end of March 2022, which will be used as funds for the next year and a half At the same time, we also plan to obtain the second-level medical device software certification from the Food and Drug Administration of the Ministry of Health and Welfare within 2 years, and complete the smart medical AI product development plan strives to introduce practical applications and make smart medical care practical and popular Huang Mingshi, founder and CEO of Kaiyuan Intelligent Manufacturing「Translated

【2021 Solutions】 Committed to building a data supermarket, Lin Data Technology uses its strength to make brand owners pay the bill

"Just like many pork stalls in traditional markets, you can buy pork everywhere However, different ways of processing and cooking will produce different delicacies" LnData has been deeply involved in data processing and application for many years President Xie Peifang explained in a simple way the advantages of Lin Data Technology when everyone is striving for "data" business opportunities Data is known as the "black gold of the new era" and is as important as crude oil With the advancement of technology and digital technology, the amount of data obtained by enterprises is growing rapidly How to refine oil into gold depends on experience, technology and the trust of brand owners Focus on first-party databases and establish sales communication intensity indicators Founded in 2016, Lin Data Technology specializes in data technology, provides diversified and innovative software services SaaS, and plays the role of an independent third party in the market Through diversified and advanced various types of data collection and The serial connection service assists enterprises in data collection, data cleaning, data management and final data application, using the most authentic and complete data in every business decision-making to gain market opportunities Xie Peifang, Chief Strategy Officer of Lin Data Technology LnData Xie Peifang said that the original intention of the company was to establish a third-party advertising effectiveness monitoring unit Since it is difficult to evaluate the brand owner’s advertising budget investment and effectiveness, in addition to the authenticity of the traffic, it is difficult to verify which placements are actually exposed, the audiences reached, etc Detailed information is often vague, so an impartial third party must monitor it to be fair, impartial, and transparent At the same time, we help brand owners to use digital marketing not only to achieve last-mile conversion, but also to achieve brand exposure and completely establish the consumer purchase journey However, since the fees for third-party advertising monitoring must be included in the overall advertising budget, and the media does not want to be monitored, the overall Taiwanese market acceptance is still not high Therefore, Lin Data Technology has turned to establishing a "first-party database" for brand owners ” is the focus of development SaaS products connect all consumer touch points and establish a first-party brand database The first-party database refers to the relevant data of brand owners in various marketing channels or digital content, as well as nodes that interact with consumers, collected through the unique crawling capabilities of Lin Data Technology, and then analyzed using artificial intelligence Process and generate sales communication intensity indicators Brand companies can use this indicator to understand the degree of discussion of their products in consumer groups, make corresponding corporate decision-making suggestions, and produce user behavior pattern analysis based on artificial intelligence Xie Peifang said that the first-party database will also be connected to the brand owner’s CRM system Through Lin Data’s technology, a brand data hub Brand Data Hub tailored for the brand owner can not only effectively track and connect each A consumer touchpoint data helps brand owners to interact meaningfully with consumers anytime and anywhere, and can also identify Key Opinion Consumers KOC who are loud and iconic in the community and are willing to speak out for the brand , become a brand ambassador, and through "mission" activities, increase member stickiness and diffusion, turn consumers into "brand groups", and truly achieve the purpose of precise marketing CRM combines Unified ID to track and understand the consumer journey Currently, Lindata Technology’s customer base is distributed in beauty, beverage, automobile, banking and other industries Through the customer relationship management system CRM combined with the function of the community, each consumer is marked with an ID, and the intention and behavior of consumers at various touch points such as web pages, advertisements, communities, and e-commerce are instantly grasped, and the customer's intentions and behaviors are provided The best marketing strategies for brands "In the past, brand owners' CRM systems were mostly created using Excel tables, which was labor-intensive Moreover, brand owners often spent 200,000-300,000 yuan to find KOLs Key Opinion Leaders, but they couldn't find them "Effect", Xie Peifang said that by using Lindata's SaaS service to digitize the data, it can not only establish and accumulate a membership database, but also find more than 100 loyal and high-volume consumers at once, accumulating the comprehensive benefits of the above consumers to the brand , far more than a KOL, of course the brand owner is willing to pay the bill At the same time, as the number of KOC increases, the voice meter of the online community continues to grow After establishing the database, there are three major benefits 1 Quantitative data on member influence are available for reference 2 The system accumulates the results of all members’ tasks In the past, a lot of manpower was spent on statistics, but now it can be solved with digital tools 3 The brand’s reputation and number of shares on the community will continue to increase, forming a positive cycle Xie Peifang said that when promoting data technology services, the biggest difficulty is that the amount of data needs to be accumulated for about six months to a year before truly meaningful analysis can be seen The specific approach is to first interview customers to clarify the data collection strategies and channels And she also admitted that what is really useful is CRM data Accumulated data without interactive information is dead and of no use Establishing a data middle platform as the ultimate goal and becoming a data supermarket AI technology is used to classify and group complex data from multiple channels, capture different data characteristics, and manage them with labels naturally generated by AI The actual work process is all the pipelines for data entry must be planned first, followed by cleaning the data This part is the most difficult After cleaning, labeling, classification and explicitness are started, and continuous optimization is started, and then it is packaged as a marketing tool Application of activities Cross-channel data concatenation and accumulation to strengthen brand database application Xie Peifang said that Lin Data Technology will continue to deepen the accumulation and application of first-party data from brand owners in the short term That is, from the customer's perspective, we develop SaaS services for all consumer journey nodes The solutions range from network monitoring, advertising monitoring, APP optimization, and consumer inquiry systems to dividing the services into independent SaaS tools and Focusing on consumers, we integrate all data to help brand owners better understand consumers The second stage is to develop a data market Data Marketplace After obtaining the consent of consumers, the data obtained will be de-personalized, such as different databases of investors with the same investment attributes, women in confinement, characteristics of diabetic patients, etc Exchange or cross-industry cooperation is possible In the final stage, Lin Data hopes to help brand owners build a "data middle platform" to quickly integrate brand data assets, exchange data in a safe, clean and trustworthy environment, and create a data supermarket In fact, there are more and more data markets in Taiwan, each with the ability to collect different data Xie Peifang adopts an open attitude and believes that whichever one is useful to brand owners is a good data market "Just like meat can be bought everywhere, but the methods of processing the meat are different and the taste is different This is the skill of the chef" This is Xie Peifang's most appropriate metaphor for the data market Lin Data Technology Company Team Note The core idea of the so-called "data middle platform" is data sharing Through organizational adjustment, data warehousing, data synchronization and other technical methods, a middle platform that uniformly manages data sources and applications is designed to support internal uploads Hundreds of business applications to avoid problems such as repeated construction and incomplete definition of data indicators

time looking for AI talent, it's more effective to use existing AI platforms that require no coding This allows domain experts to use, operate, and maintain AI, addressing the current shortage of tech talent Pain point two, difficulty assessing implementation results According to reports, the success rate of AI implementation isn't high, with only about 5 of international AI implementations creating significant value Wisdom Stabil Tech also finds that their AI implementation success rate is about 5 to 10 Lin Gengcheng analyzed that a major difficulty lies in the process of implementing AI, which requires defining the problem, understanding domain knowledge, applying AI models, and combining systematic integration Generating business value through these steps requires extensive interdisciplinary integration and is exceedingly challenging, necessitating significant time and human resources Pain point three, cost Whether it's the introduction of talent, time, or the integration of domain knowledge with AI, the processes demand substantial time This leads to directionless investments and ever-increasing intangible costs If AI hardware is also factored in, the resulting financial burden makes it difficult to assess cost versus benefit To address the pain points of AI adoption in industries, Wisdom Stabil Tech will assist enterprises in utilizing AI to solve process or production line challenges with their proven AI models, creating standardized AI SaaS to tackle common domain issues For individual or custom needs of enterprises, adjustments will be made based on this standardized base Currently, Wisdom Stabil Tech offers two primary services the Optical Inspection AI SaaS platform and the Smart Water Management AI SaaS platform, both of which are easy to monitor and maintain, enabling companies to introduce AI technology in a cost-effective and efficient manner 企業導入Domain AI SaaS產生成本下降、效率提升等具體成效 In the realm of optical inspection, using the Domain AI SaaS platform can lead to a 10x increase in quality and a reduction in labor costs by 50 In the smart water management sector, it can achieve a 20 improvement in energy optimization For instance, in the textile industry, where manual inspections traditionally detect defects at a rate of 80-90, the introduction of AI optical inspection technology can increase this rate to over 95 This not only significantly enhances the defect detection rate by 10 but also halves labor costs 舉例而言,紡織業瑕疵檢測過往採用人工全檢的過程中,通常檢出率在80-90之間,導入AI光學檢測技術之後,檢出率可以提升到95以上。之後再透過人工進行複檢或抽檢,不僅可大幅提升10的瑕疵檢出率,還可節省將近一半的人力,效益十分可觀。 Furthermore, in wastewater treatment plants that traditionally observe water quality samples managed by experienced technicians manually adjusting equipment, AI can optimize motor and equipment output based on monitoring data, maintaining water quality within specified standards and potentially saving over 20 in energy costs This is essential for municipal wastewater plants and water utilities needing smart water management platforms to monitor treatment processes Lin Gengcheng honestly mentioned that AI is not a cure-all and can act as a 'revealing mirror,' exposing issues previously overlooked by manual processes Thus, defining the problems with clients and adjusting how results are verified is critical With ambitions on the Southeast Asian market, Wisdom Stabil Tech estimates achieving an IPO in 5 years Lin Gengcheng also stated that AI technology needs continuous refinement At present, the goal is to not overly rely on massive data for effective AI learning Combining traditional algorithms with current AI technology offers the best solution before comprehensive AI advancements emerge Besides promoting domestic industry applications, Wisdom Stabil Tech plans to expand the Domain AI SaaS platform to Southeast Asia in 2022 They are currently active in Series A funding, aiming to further enhance the depth and breadth of the Domain AI SaaS They plan to conduct Series A or B rounds of funding with the goal of going public in about five years

reference for enterprises in the application field The epidemic is the biggest catalyst for digital transformation for enterprises Director Cao pointed out that the introduction of AI to promote digital transformation of enterprises is not necessarily just based on reducing costs or improving production efficiency, but must be based on the fundamental development goals and the essence of the problem Process analysis, thinking about how to use AI or ICT technology to serve and meet process and customer needs This process often requires breaking out of the existing framework to help companies reshape new operations and management models to effectively improve corporate performance Chair Professor Cao Yuzhong, Director of the Artificial Intelligence Operations Management Research Center of National Taiwan University of Science and Technology The biggest challenge for enterprises introducing AI improving customer trust In the process of expanding AI industry-university cooperation, Yu Wenhuang believes that the biggest challenge is to enhance the trust of enterprises in you For customers, a certain degree of trust is required before the Know-How of the production line can be communicated to you Share and tell you where the focus of business is In the absence of business trust, it is difficult for AI industry players to analyze the availability of processes and data Enterprises usually consider two key points when choosing AI cooperation partners 1 When cooperating with you, will the data and results be sold to others 2 Will the cost of customization be too high Although companies are less wary of academia, Director Yu still believes that gaining customer trust and jointly establishing sustainable AI innovation application capabilities and development goals are the key to The key factors for all ICT companies to face industrial customers and their ability to provide AI solutions Regarding the cultivation of AI talents, Yu Wenhuang also has his own unique insights He observed that the education system from junior high schools, high schools to universities has driven the trend of AI However, AI technology itself has many theoretical foundations and industrial knowledge that must be integrated When talking about AI talent cultivation, we should first define how to construct a talent development system or route in the AI field, what types of people are needed to introduce AI into the economic system, systematize talent positioning and characteristics, and let talents who are interested in investing in the AI industry understand how to use their own The goal measures the types of AI skills and jobs that can be developed Secondly, it is to help companies that want to promote AI in a systematic way to understand, whether it is developing applications or building technical teams, how to measure the talent needs and technical blueprint corresponding to business goals It not only plays the role of problem-solving, because AI It is just one of the ways to solve the problem Only by assisting enterprises to establish innovative consciousness with AI RD thinking can we truly implement industrial development, strengthen demand and promote both supply and demand at the same time, and accelerate the implementation of AI applications and talent cultivation NTUST Artificial Intelligence Operations Management Center provides a

【解決方案】不用寫程式就能導入AI 詠鋐智能將AI專案從180天縮短為3天
【2021 Solutions】 You can import AI without writing programs. Yonghong Intelligence shortened the AI ​​project from 180 days to 3 days.

Can AI be mass-produced How to mass-produce AI Chimes AI, a company established less than a year ago, has built enterprise-level No-Code AI to help Taiwan's heavyweight petrochemical plant monitor 400 machines of different brands and models in just three months Through the Tukey platform, the modeling speed is accelerated and customer-built algorithms are supported, reducing the execution time of the AI project from 180 days to 3 days As the name suggests, No-Code means developing application tools without writing any line of code The method of use is very simple through a graphical user interface , you can easily complete the abnormal monitoring task with simple operations such as click, drag, and menu Raise a virtual data scientist to introduce AI in the factory to quickly achieve the goalXie Zongzhen, CEO of Yonghong Intelligence, serves as a lecturer at the Taiwan Artificial Intelligence School, through the Tukey platform He has led corporate teams to build AI projects step by step The projects he has worked on cover petrochemical, textile, energy, telecommunications, finance, medical and other industries, and he has accumulated considerable experience Everyone who works on AI projects knows that when executing an AI project, the most difficult thing is "communication requirements" Engineers need to confirm the company's needs, communicate with the masters, define the problem, and then collect data , cleaning data, annotating, building AI models, etc It takes a lot of time and communication costs to go back and forth If you can use No-Code AI tools, it will be like raising a virtual data scientist in your own factory Data cleaning, modeling and deployment are all completed by domain experts who are familiar with factory-side operations, achieving rapid deployment of AI technology Successfully complete the transformation goal Use the Tukey tool to lead the corporate team step by step in building AI projects Dr Xie Zongzhen said that the specific method of Tukey tool is that after field experts collect the on-site data into a machine-readable format, they feed it to the No-Code AI software Data cleaning and data modeling are performed in the software After confirming that the modeling effect is satisfactory, it is encapsulated into an API of the AI model and connected to the BI Business Intelligence dashboard To put it simply, the available data is entered into No-Code AI for analysis, and the analyzed modules are automatically packaged and then thrown to the war situation board, whether it is equipment performance abnormality warning, process Energy-saving suggestions or raw material product supply and demand assessments can all be used as references for decision-making The petrochemical plant completed abnormal detection of 400 machines in 3 months and increased the accuracy by 5For example, the global petrochemical giant Formosa Plastics Corporation There are dozens of factories in Taiwan If the AI projects had to be completed one by one, one equipment and one model would take about 180 days Not only is it time-consuming and labor-intensive, but it is also slower and slower in terms of efficiency The Tukey tool was used to build an AI model, and 15 senior equipment maintenance engineers on site conducted data modeling In just three months, abnormal monitoring of 400 machines, including machines of different brands and models, was completed Compressors, rotating fans, condensersetc The most important thing is that after the introduction, the availability rate of the equipment is increased by nearly 5, which is not only better than entrusting professional AI engineers, but also greatly improves the construction speed Friendly interface design, you can easily complete abnormal monitoring tasks through simple operations such as click, drag and drop, and menu Fan Wenxuan, associate director of Yonghong Intelligent Marketing, pointed out that Turkey’s greatest value to enterprises has two points First, it is a simple and fast development tool that allows enterprises to Internal concepts can be quickly verified Generally, AI projects take 6-12 months, but using Tukey can be completed in just 3 days Second, it is a flexible management tool to complete the AI model It allows enterprises to simply use it in the production production, sales sales, human resources human resources, development research and development, and finance finance of the company management, and is not limited to the manufacturing production line And can be integrated with existing systems such as ERP Xie Zongzhen also emphasized that there are many AI solutions For enterprises, it is a chore to introduce so many systems at once If they can choose a stable working platform, they can be centralized Therefore, Tukey's positioning is the concept of "microservices" The biggest difference from traditional AI projects is that the price of the project is high, which means that it can only solve problems with high commercial value However, there are many complex problems within the enterprise, which business and administrative units have to face every day, and cannot be solved by a project approach In this case, Tukey is a good method of "agile development" No-Code AI significantly reduces the threshold for non-IT personnel to enter AI applicationsTukey has the function of model retraining and adjustment When the enterprise's business strategy changes , new data must be accumulated When the new data is accumulated, it can be fed to the same Tukey project to perform the data analysis process "Cut the workflow into segments, similar to the concept of card swapping" Xie Zongzhen emphasized that as long as Change the original data of the first workflow and replace it with the new one The original data cleaning, modeling, parameter setting, model export and other processes will be completed in sequence The model is used to monitor whether on-site equipment is abnormal When the monitoring model is set, it is the peak state of the equipment After monitoring for a long time, the equipment will age, the equipment will age, and the original old model will also crack and decline Therefore, the model needs Retrain every six months Xie Zongzhen believes that No-Code AI is a solution that significantly lowers the threshold for non-IT people to enter AI applications How to make people on site willing to use it must create incentives to improve their work efficiency, prompting more cases to appear, such as customer service centers It can be used to develop potential sales lists Tukey can be used to generate 120 accurate e-marketing lists from 2,000 lists, reducing the erroneous marketing strategy of shooting at random At this stage, companies still view AI solutions in terms of one-off projects In fact, the performance of AI models is often related to data quality and data distribution trends When the operating model changes for example, process upgrading and downsizing, equipment updates, data drift occurs, and the performance of the original AI model declines This A rolling correction is required Therefore, the greatest benefits can be achieved by using No-Code AI tools and allowing the professional team most familiar with the business situation to monitor and update the AI model on their own In the future, Yonghong Intelligence will continue to accumulate application cases and cooperate with SI Company, and is expected to promote Tukey tools to overseas markets Xie Zongzhen left, chief executive of Yonghui Intelligent and sales associate Fan Wenxuan 「Translated content is generated by ChatGPT and is for reference only Translation date:2024-05-19」
