【2021 Application Example】 AI Complements the Disruption of Traditional Industry Experience: Production Forecast Analysis in Plastic Recycling Process

As the number of veteran craftsmen in traditional industries diminishes In Taiwan, SMEs have always played a central role in Taiwan's industry, accompanying Taiwan through various 'economic miracles' periods But as time progresses, the old masters gradually became elderly craftsmen Coupled with the phenomenon of fewer children and changes in the overall industrial structure, fewer and fewer of the new generation are willing to enter traditional industries Now, it can be observed that the main combination on most SMEs' operational fields is formed by 'elder craftsmen' together with 'foreign workers' These experienced craftsmen, who act as living dictionaries of field experience, suffer from a lack of successors to continue the tradition, leading to a growing difficulty in sustaining on-site experience transfer in traditional industries The limits of traditional hands-on process optimization are in sight Located in Tainan Baoan Industrial District, 'Tangxian Company' was established in 1972, initially manufacturing high-quality weaving equipment It possesses the capability to manufacture machinery, and in recent years it has actively developed environmentally friendly plastic recycling equipment in response to international green energy, recycling, and environmental protection demands Ultimately, they have successfully developed low energy consumption, low waste, high purity, and high output recycling granulators with a sleek and efficient machine design supplemented by advanced intelligent control technology Tangxian Company's self-developed plastic recycling granulator equipment However, in the production process of plastic recycling, when faced with hundreds of material types and dozens of process temperatures, speed settings, what is faced is thousands of possible parameter combinations Previously, the adjustment of various production process conditions was reliant on the on-site staff the experience of the craftsmen Thus, during the transition of production of different incoming materials such as PET, PP, PE, a significant amount of raw materials would be wasted during the trial phase The professional information gap in traditional industries Tangxian Company recognizes the importance of data In the past, although process parameters were recorded, due to a lack of data capabilities at the time, it was primarily in paper form, manually written down by the operating staff, accumulating a large amount of paper data However, this also meant a lack of scientifically accurate and detailed information available for real-time reference and adjustment Process parameters logbook, records the state of about a dozen machines and production figures hourly In quality control as well, due to a lack of control over the quality of output and monitoring and feedback mechanisms for unit time production, it becomes difficult to predict the profit conditions of each batch Production management can only estimate and average cost and productivity changes over the process from the outcomes, without being able to objectively and timely restore the production conditions to reasonableness or make clearer adjustments when facing quality abnormalities Site reality left image shows recycled scraps right image shows pellet production Taiwanese manufacturers possess strong machinery manufacturing capabilities, and many modern machines now have data capabilities, recording real-time status and information via IoT But is the infrastructure of the factory's on-site and information systems ready yet When the Old Master Meets AI With government referral, Tangxian Company partnered with a Taiwanese data science company, working together to integrate AI services and optimize internal processes using AI They started with a medium-sized plastic recycling production line within the factory as a trial field After establishing a successful benchmark, this model was expanded to larger plastic recycling machinery within the factory to continue verification and application Initially, both parties converted the past handwritten paper data into digital format using OCR supplemented by manual correction Tangxian Company also worked with the supplier of the human-machine interface of the machinery to integrate the control panel and parameter data into the factory's database, allowing real-time monitoring of machine status and eliminating the complexities and potential errors of manual transcription Panel of plastic recycling granulation machine, showing current process temperatures, speeds, and power usage Meanwhile, the Taiwanese data science company further modeled dozens of parameter data through AI, conducting scenario analysis to simulate various production possibilities under environmental parameters and material inputs, identifying key characteristic parameters and providing parameter adjustment recommendations to decrease costs during the trial phase Applying data analysis to traditional industry machinery processes After the old master receives the raw materials, they only need to enter the relevant material characteristic parameters, and the system automatically generates recommended process parameters After small adjustments by the old master, they proceed with the trial production of the material, effectively reducing the waste of materials, water, electricity, and manpower caused by incorrect attempts Moreover, Tangxian Company has proactively deployed the concept of 'production pedigree' in the plastic recycling process, allowing the batch's raw materials and process parameters to be accessed by scanning a QRCode Production and sales pedigree of plastic recycling pelletizing Taiwan's SMEs have strong machinery capabilities, just waiting for the 'east wind' of data From industrial revolutions 20 to 30, even 40, many Taiwanese SMEs face challenges in transitions not just in upgrading machinery, but after investing in modern equipment and generating data, they do not know how to utilize it effectively It is impractical for these manufacturers to develop a specialized data analysis department on their own meanwhile, Taiwan also has many innovative teams with strong software capabilities in AI and data analysis, possessing the technology but lacking the field and data Therefore, if the traditional industries of Taiwan could be fully integrated with the innovative teams in AI and data analysis, it would not only address the current challenges of manpower and experience transfer faced by traditional industries but also advance Taiwan's development and application of AI significantly「Translated content is generated by ChatGPT and is for reference only Translation date:2024-05-19」

【2021 Application Example】 Fongyu Uses AI Knowledge-based Fish Farming to Effectively Increase Aquatic Production by 10%

Fisheries is an important industry in an island economy However, the fish farming industry has faced severe challenges in recent years, including climate change, labor shortage, and rising costs In particular, nearly 110,000 workers in agriculture will retire due to old age over the next 10 years For this reason, the need for aquaculture to move towards smart farming is becoming increasingly urgent Founded in 2014, Fongyu Corp Ltd has developed a unique eco-friendly farming model based on its own fish farming It uses AI knowledge-based fish farming to effectively increase aquatic product production by 10, and reduced labor cost by 15 The word "Fongyu" has a profound meaning "Fong" represents good mountains and "Yu" represents good water, and is the hope that companies will allow Taiwan to always have good mountains and good waterIt is also a homophone for "having a full figure," expressing the hope that products will give consumers a full and healthy body and mind The founder of the company, Liu Chien-Shen, has been through the difficult entrepreneurial journey of becoming an apprentice in fish farming, raising funds, renting fish farms, establishing a fish farming company, building a brand, and expanding sales Labor shortage and aging workers are hidden worries in the fish farming industry Currently, fish farms in Taiwan are still mainly traditional fish farms, and farming techniques are still passed down through word-of-mouth In addition, the labor shortage and average age of workers exceeding 60 years old has made it impossible to effectively stably improve productivity and yield This farming method makes it difficult to prevent and control diseases, and greatly increases the possibility of excessive use of drugs, environmental pollution, and water quality and ecological damage, creating a vicious cycle that lowers the quality of fish farming In addition, 651 of workers in Taiwan's fish farming industry are inadequately skilled With limited support from IoT sensors, traditional fish farmers still mainly rely on their own experience and knowledge for water quality management, feeding, and disease detection Fish farming management relies heavily on the ability of individual fishermen Once experienced workers retire, the industry will not only face the issue of succession, but also the difficult of stably supplying a certain amount of harvest that meets quality standards This may cause a dilemma for the entire industry from fish farming to sales In order to improve the pain point of inability to pass on experience in fish farming, and at the same time create a "digital" foundation for fish farming, the top priority must be to collect farming behavior data and develop AI services as an important starting point Fishery digital twin technology helps fishermen transition to smart farming With the assistance of the Institute for Information Technology III, Fongyu implemented the "fishery digital twin" technology to dynamically adjust the farming schedule In other words, the fish farming schedule is adjusted according to the species, habits, and variables of the fish The use of AI in fish farming not only effectively increase aquatic production by 10, but also reduced labor cost by 15 In terms of specific methods, we first digitalized the fish ponds, feed, and decision-making behavior for each species, such as sea bass and Taiwan tilapia, and recorded the seasonal temperature changes from releasing seedlings to harvesting, all of which were digitalized, gradually recording the experience and methods of experienced workers into a rich database Based on the recorded data, we analyzed the compound variables to find the best farming behavior and generate a dynamic farming schedule The records for each pool provide data on workers' experience However, fish farming behavior generally relies on rules of thumb Even experienced fish farmers cannot ensure that they will find the best solution Therefore, new methods are proposed to solve this issue That is, "to determine the best fish farming behavior by predicting the interaction with water quality and past data on feeding, and evaluating fish farming behavior based on water quality and fish farming," and provide fishermen with the most intuitive recommendations through daily schedules To continue optimizing the dynamic fish farming calendar on a rolling basis, iterations of the model will be developed through the three-step cycle 1 Input the current fish farming calendar into the model 2 The model predicts the future environment 3 Shortcomings of the fish farming calendar are corrected based on the future environment to obtain a new version of the fish farming calendar In the process, the experience of aquaculture experts is used to establish the causal relationship between fish farming behavior and the environment The establishment of a dynamic fish farming process and technology-based fish farming recommendation services provide a traceable and detailed fish farming process It is one of the few technologies that can digitalize fish farming Fishermen can quickly and easily record their daily behaviors to build knowledge without taking up too much time, but in the long run it can reduce labor cost by 15 and increase output and revenue by an average of 10 Smart fish farming has achieved outstanding results, reducing labor cost by 15 and increasing output by 10 At the same time, the fish farming calendar can also be extended to different aquatic species, such as white shrimp, milkfish, clams, and Taiwan tilapia, to produce fish farming schedules for ponds with different specifications, and the harvested aquatic species can be traced according to different specifications, establishing vertically integrated services for safe food products Fongyu's main products are divided into two categories One is aquaculture modules, including fry, feed, materials and probiotics, production planning and processes, and monitoring, which can be sold separately or exported as modules The high-quality aquatic products produced by Fongyu have repeatedly won awards Figure Fongyursquos official website The other category is high-quality aquatic products, including seabass fillets, seabass balls, oil-free seabass balls, seabass dumplings, and seabass soup The products have won various awards, including the top ten souvenirs in Pingtung in 2017, "Barramundi Fillet" won the 2017 Eatender of the Council of Agriculture COA, "Oil-Free Barramundi Fillet" won the 2018 Eatender Gold Food Award of the COA, and "Dumplings of Barramundi" and "Barramundi Broth" won the 2019 Eatender of the COA The consecutive awards represent that the "quality" of Fongyursquos aquatic products can be seen and eaten with peace of mind In addition, Fongyu has exclusive fingerlings that meet international needs, such as Pure seawater cultured tilapia fingerlings and seawater Taiwan tilapia fingerlings from selective breeding FY-01 are items that aquaculture companies in many countries are looking forward to The company also has aquaculture modules, disease monitoring tools, and feeding materials designed in accordance with the environment, in order to provide customers with more stable income

【2021 Application Example】 AI Analysis Cloud Service Platform for Remote Sensing Big Data Enables the Smooth Application of Satellite Remote Sensing Images

Although satellite remote sensing images can make all surface objects visible, it still requires a lot of time and manpower to be truly applied to the industry In order to effectively solve the problems that customers face in digesting huge amounts of image data and eliminate technical obstacles for cross-domain users to process satellite remote sensing images, ThinkTron has developed an "AI Analysis Cloud Service Platform for Remote Sensing Big Data" as a new beginning for cross-domain AI applications for spatial information In recent years, in response to the impact of industrial globalization, Taiwan's agriculture has continued to transition towards technology-based and higher quality, improving the yield and quality of crops by solving problems, such as microclimate impacts and pest and disease control The demand of agriculture on images has expanded endlessly to accurately grasp the growing environment of crops In the early years when UAVs unmanned aerial vehicles were not yet popular, manual field surveys were the most basic but most labor-intensive work With the emergence of UAV drones, aerial photography operations might not be difficult, but the range that can be photographed is limited Furthermore, surveying expertise is required to accurately capture spatial information At this time, the use of satellite remote sensing data may break away from the past imagination of using image data Taiwan Space Agency TASA ODC data warehouse services In the past ten years, with the breakthrough of modern satellite remote sensing application technology, Digital Earth has become a new trend in global data collection Countries have developed data cube image storage technology, and the development of smart agriculture has become one of the largest image users Determining planting distribution is the first step in understanding crop yields Free satellite remote sensing images, powerful data warehousing support, and the team's robust image recognition technology are important supports for accelerating agricultural transformation Using satellite remote sensing image data can accelerate the development of smart agriculture However, in the past, it was difficult to extract large-area crop distribution through satellite remote sensing images, not to mention the cost If you wanted to use free information, you had to visit all websites of international space agencies, look through the wide variety of satellite specifications, and carefully evaluate the sensor specifications, image resolution, and revisit cycle After finding suitable images, you had to look at them one by one to filter the ones you need Next is downloading dozens of images that are often several hundreds of Megabytes MB each, which might exceed the capacity of your computer Also, after overcoming image access and preparing data, you must then start to confirm the downloaded image products and which bands you want, because the image you see is not just an image file jpg or png, but rather complex multi-spectral information, attribute fields and coordinate information It takes a lot of effort just to confirm the correct information Facing GIS software packages with complex functions is the start of another trouble The complex image pre-processing process and the inflexible machine learning package greatly reduce the efficiency of analyzing data After finally getting the results of crop identification, you might find that the best time for using map information may have already passed The above-mentioned complex and time-consuming satellite image processing problems are precisely the pain points of the market ThinkTron expanded from traditional machine learning to modern deep learning applications, and developed an "AI Analysis Cloud Service Platform for Remote Sensing Big Data" under the GeoAI framework, breaking through the constraints of details in the spatial information for customers Differences between the process before and after introducing the AI analysis cloud service platform ThinkTron said that Taiwan's ODC Open Data Cube system has been completed and began providing services after years of efforts from the Taiwan Space Agency TASA, formally becoming aligned with international trends The powerful warehousing technology allows users to easily capture and use image data of a specific time and spatial range according to their needs The warehouse stores multiple satellite image resources from international space agencies, including the ESA's Sentinel-1 one image every 6 days, Sentinel-2 one image every 6 days, USGS's Landsat-7 one image every 16 days, Landsat-8 one image every 16 days, and the domestic Formosat-2 one image every day and Formosat-5 one image every 2 days ThinkTron develops satellite image recognition tools based on Python Breaking free from the limitations of GIS Geographic Information System software packages, ThinkTron integrated GDAL Geospatial Data Abstraction Library based on Python, and considered computing efficiency and parallel processing when developing all tools required for satellite image processing and image recognition modeling, including coordinate system and data format conversion, grid and vector data interaction, and data intra-difference and normalization All of the tools are designed with AI applications in mind, and some commonly used tools are packaged into an open source package under the name TronGisPy to benefit the technical community ThinkTron utilized the team's understanding of satellite remote sensing images and the collected tagged data crop distribution maps to preset the image recognition modeling process, the required training data specifications, and dataset definitions This is imported into the machine learning LightGBM or deep learning CNN framework that was completed in advance, and the entire training process to be performed in the Web GIS interface, providing users with partial flexibility to freely filter images, confirm spatial and temporal ranges, select models, and adjust hyperparameters In addition to the operation of training models, it also provides historical models to output identification results, and finally displays the identification results of crop distribution on the Web GIS map In fact, agriculture is not the only industry that needs satellite remote sensing applications AI applications of spatial information have also appeared in various fields as companies in different industries aim to enhance their global competitiveness For example, surveying and mapping companies that have a large amount of map data can use the AI analysis cloud service platform to store map data while also accelerating the efficiency of digital mapping Under the severe global climate change and the risk of strong earthquakes, there is a wide variety industrial insurance, agricultural insurance, financial insurance, or disaster insurance are all inseparable from spatial information The use of remote sensing image recognition to understand insurance targets has long been an international trend AI Analysis Cloud Service Architecture for Remote Sensing Big Data

【2021 Application Example】 HRT Technology Improves Production Efficiency by 20% Through AOI Detection of Defects in VCSEL Packaging

In 2017, the launch of the iPhone X made 3D sensor technology used in Face ID highly popular, which drove the development of VCSEL, a core component in the 3D sensor module In the detection of defects in incoming packaged VCSEL, the use of AI inference models can solve the industry's issue with low yield and improve reliability to 95 VCSEL technology currently can be used in many applications and various end consumer markets, including robots, mobile devices, surveillance, drones, and ARVR VCSELs are a good solution in applications that require high-speed modulation capabilities, such as cameras and biometrics VCSEL technology has a wide range ofnbsp applications, including in drones Pictured Zoyi Technology's Agricultural Drone VCSEL technology has a wide range of applications, AI technology assists in defect detection HRT Technology stated that the packaged VCSEL market is also facing strong price competition from competitors, and needs to further reduce costs and enhance product competitiveness One of the key problems is the replacement of glass lens with epoxy resin lens The production of traditional glass lenses has high yield, but the cost is higher than that of epoxy resin lenses Due to the cutting process of epoxy resin, the side wall of cutting lines can easily have rough edges, causing it to be oversized The release of stress caused by heat during the mounting process will directly cause the optical lens to break HRT Technology pointed out that the incoming inspection of VCSEL epoxy resin lenses is very important Under the constraints of packaging space, the space for fitting the package and optical lens is limited Moreover, the optical lenses will be confined to a metal frame If the dimensional tolerances are properly controlled, stress release due to heat during mounting can easily cause the optical lens to break, resulting in a yield loss of up to 10 in the VCSEL package reliability verification, resulting in an increase in production costs In order to solve the problems above, HRT Technology hopes to use AI to monitor the size and appearance defects of epoxy resin components in the VCSEL epoxy resin lens incoming stage, verifying whether their dimensions meet specifications, whether the cutting edges are smooth, and whether there are any defects in their appearance Since traditional incoming material inspection requires a rough visual inspection by humans to distinguish the quality The problem of image collection needs to be solved first to successfully collect image data Therefore, HRT Technology first developed an Automated Optical Inspection AOI device, which includes X, Y, Z three-axis motion, high-resolution cameras, and related control software to automatically record images After collecting the image data, opencv aligns the test image and a normal image to determine differences between the two images, and then pixel mapping is used to compare the pixel area to complete initial screening Manual labeling is carried out according to the image classification above, including samples that are normal, have defects in appearance, or have different shape characteristics, and then algorithm training and verification is carried out Residual neural network ResNet or other related algorithms are used for deep learning to identify the quality of lenses Implementation of AOI inspection improves production efficiency by 20 and above Comparing the differences before and after the implementation of AI image inspection, the incoming VCSEL lens inspection before implementation only involved manual inspection of the appearance The lens is packaged on the VCSEL package that has completed die bonding After passing the general light up test, the final reliability test high temperature reflow is performed Failed samples go into the rework process However, after the implementation of AOI inspection, it can screen defective lenses sooner and reduce the cost of subsequent materials input, it can also reduce the need for rework due to failure, improving yield to 95 and above in the reliability verification This is expected to help companies reduce production costs by 10 and increase production efficiency by 20 and above The difference before and after implementing AI image detection HRT Technology pointed out that this technology is an AI application developed based on tiny images It uses deep learning algorithms to identify defects in the images The trained network automatically classifies image data to predetermined categories Defect categories can be determined through reference images, so cumbersome programming is not required In the industrial machine vision environment, deep learning is mainly used for classification tasks in applications, such as inspection of industrial products or identification of parts In the future, with the development of IoT wearable devices and the trend of energy saving, the size of optoelectronic components will continue to shrink This technology can be applied to the detection of defects in the appearance of other tiny optoelectronic components in the future

【2020 Solutions】 Smart Scheduling for Smoother Rides and Cost Reduction

The COVID-19 pandemic has spurred the popularity of delivery platforms such as Uber Eats and Foodpanda, creating an urgent need for smart dispatch systems Imagine if drivers could determine from their mobile phones or online platforms where there are no traffic jams, which roads have the fewest traffic lights AI could help plan the most suitable schedules, significantly improving logistics efficiency and reducing overwork With the flourishing of commercial activities, the logistics sector, which provides personnelgoods movement services, lacks smarter scheduling According to research by the international research organization Gartner, 97 of the global logistics industry does not use optimized software for effective planning Smart Scheduling Resolves Stakeholder Pain Points Let's first understand where the pain points lie among stakeholders in the logistics industry chain Employer's perspective In response to various types of delivery services, especially new types like food delivery, how to increase performance without expanding the fleet size Dispatcher's perspective Vehicle scheduling is very challenging, and the bosses demand increased efficiency, which is difficult to achieve without computers Driver's perspective Poor scheduling by the dispatcher leads to incomplete deliveries or traffic jams, often requiring overtime, or even accidentally running red lights, resulting in fines Addressing these issues, Zong Lan-Ken, founder and CEO of Singularity Infinite, states, 'All these problems are classical mathematical problems' Singularity Infinite's AIR Smart Dispatch Cloud Service is a cloud-based software service that resolves last-mile delivery scheduling and routing issues It addresses daily challenges faced by operators in managing goods, vehicles, and routes, enabling them to handle more orders with fewer vehicles Smart Scheduling System Schedule Zong Lan-Ken, who specializes in data science solutions for public needs and formerly served as an associate research professor at the Geographic Information Systems Research Center of Feng Chia University, founded Singularity Infinite in 2015 He aims to solve smart mobility issues using mathematics, statistics, and software technology The company's developed AIRouting optimization technique provides real-time traffic data and dynamic planning to assist operators in more efficient dispatching Singularity Infinite integrates real-time traffic and signal information and can handle high-frequency unconventional logistics models, such as gourmet delivery and electric scooter battery swap strategies For example, electric scooters must replace their batteries after every 50 kilometers If a scooter runs out of battery, the rider leaves it on the roadside The scooter operator must locate the depleted scooter and replace its battery To maintain effective operations, operators must keep the utilization rate of scooters between 80-90 For instance, in the Greater Taipei area with 10,000 scooters, maintaining more than 8,000 scooters on the roads at any time is crucial, yet without a smart scheduling system, high utilization rates cannot be maintained Following the system's introduction by WeMo in 2019, the utilization rate significantly improved by approximately 75 Effectiveness of AIR Smart Dispatch Cloud Service Introduction AIR Smart Dispatch Cloud Service has effectively increased the utilization rate by 75 Additionally, in the food ingredient delivery logistics, there have been notable results Traditional ingredient delivery companies need up to 25 trucks per day to transport fresh ingredients from produce markets, agricultural marketing companies, or seafood markets to restaurants After introducing the AIR Smart Dispatch Cloud Service, the number of trucks required per day was reduced to a maximum of 12, significantly cutting over half of the truck costs Singularity Infinite's team includes experts in mathematics, transportation, and AI technologies The traffic information used is from OpenStreetMap, supplemented with province-wide real-time traffic flow data to analyze congestion during different periods Additionally, future plans include using signal timing data to calculate which road segments have the fewest red lights and shortest red durations, to plan optimal routes, reducing the burden on logistics operators and drivers Singularity Infinite's team, the picture third from right is Zong Lan-Ken, founder and CEO of Singularity Infinite Besides logistics and transport, AIR Smart Dispatch Cloud Service can also be applied in container yard stacking, factory machine scheduling, project management, hospital bed allocation or operating room scheduling, and flight gate assignments among other areas Singularity Infinite employs two business models One involves customizing exclusive scheduling systems for clients, paid monthlyyearly on a pay-per-use basis the other involves system integration followed by revenue sharing with the client Fundamentally, Singularity Infinite provides APIs for integration, allowing operators to develop their own apps or provide services through websites In the entrepreneurial process, what are the most challenging aspects Zong Lan-Ken believes that entrepreneurship is a continuous series of multiple-choice questions, simplifying numerous questions into fewer choices, further simplifying each option to choose the correct answer Previously, it was mistakenly believed that 'technology can solve problems', but it was discovered that efficiency issues can not be solely resolved through mathematics, as the world does not operate this way In this ecosystem, 'who' will stop adoption due to 'whose opinion' For example, in the logistics industry, the most critical aspect of transporting goods is the driver, who needs rest If the system is introduced, and scheduling becomes completely transparent, drivers do not get time to rest The wrong introduction makes the system a tool for exploitation Hence, it is essential to consider human aspects, integrating rest times into the mathematical model to gain driver support Also, by knowing beforehand that a driver's home is near a train station, scheduling the last stop near the station lets the driver return home right after delivery These examples can significantly increase driver acceptance and greatly enhance the success rate of project adoption Zong Lan-Ken finally points out that data collection is crucial to the success of traditional industries' digital transformation in the future Without data, there is no data science, and no AI Singularity Infinite holds patents for automated data collection and recording, which can reduce data collection costs At the same time, the collected and stored data's high usability will serve as an important foundation for future intelligent logistics「Translated content is generated by ChatGPT and is for reference only Translation date:2024-05-19」

【2020 Solutions】 Robot financial management helps investors balance risks and profits

In the era of "if you don't manage your money, money will not care about you", how to avoid the risks of the investment market and grasp investment returns has become the biggest hope of investors In order to overcome the human weaknesses of greed and fear, financial management robots developed through AI algorithms can help investors avoid disasters and enjoy fruitful profits in the treacherous and ever-changing financial market On March 17, 2020, affected by the global spread of the new coronavirus pneumonia COVID-19, also known as Wuhan pneumonia, the US stock market continued to plummet after opening, triggering the third circuit breaker in the US stock market, which was also the fourth in history After the circuit breaker, investors in the securities market were in distress and could not even escape for their lives Before that, the financial management robot had suggested adjusting the proportion of stocks and bonds, reducing the proportion of high-risk stocks, increasing the proportion of relatively safe bonds, and adding high risk aversion Gold and other combinations enable investors to effectively reduce investment risks and losses Robotic financial management has two service models B2B and B2C The robot financial management service provided by Leading Information Technology Company provides investors with a stable financial management tool Peng Hansheng, co-founder and CEO of Leading Information Technology, said that Leading Information Technology currently provides two service models The first is the Taiwan B2B model, which is to cooperate with domestic financial institutions to provide robot financial algorithm engines, Artificial intelligence market prediction engine, jointly launch robot financial management services the other is an American B2C model, aiming to serve Chinese American customers, self-developed intelligent financial management APP Growin, using AI and quantitative models to provide customized investment and financial management in ETFs and individual stocks Serve Among them, due to restrictions on regulations, the B2B financial management robot launched by Leading in Taiwan is cooperating with the domestic financial industry, including banks, insurance, etc Currently Leading's partners include an investment advisory and credit company, and a life insurance company The company and two banks provide customer financial management robots as a trading tool that consumers can rely on In addition, Taiwan's leader in the information service industry - Jingcheng Information provides diversified financial information services to financial institutions Liding also provides investors with investment portfolio recommendations for smart financial management by connecting APIs to the Jingcheng Information system Smart financial management APP Growin uses AI and quantitative models to provide customized investment and financial services in ETFs and individual stocks The financial regulations in the United States are relatively mature, allowing companies to set up online investment advisory companies Liding connects with the US brokerage system through APIs, and the partner is Interactive Brokers, the largest and No 1 company in the United States Broker, providing direct consumer services Interactive Brokers customers can place orders directly through the APP and enjoy the services of the financial management robot The iOS version is currently available for download The robot financial management platform charges a management fee of 05-1 of the investment amount every year There are 10 investment portfolios for consumers to choose from Stocks with high investment returns have higher management fees If you choose relatively stable ETFs, the fees will be Less expensive The services of Liding Financial Management Robot are mainly focused on medium and long-term investment Taking the United States as an example, the investment targets include 5,000 stocks and 2,000 ETFs in the US market Among them, the average investment return rate based on different risk investment portfolios is 45 -18 or so, and ETF is between 45 and 9 Introducing AI algorithms into investment and financial management can not only significantly reduce the impact of human emotions, but also enable disciplined execution of every investment decision, more effective prediction of the market, and immediate response to its trends Robotic financial management targets retired people and focuses on medium and long-term investment Take the global stock market crash triggered by the impact of the new coronavirus as an example The original investment portfolio of the financial management robot had a stock and bond ratio of 7 to 3 respectively Shortly after the global stock market crash, it automatically reversed and adjusted to 3 to 7, that is, to increase the bond ratio Proportion, reduce the proportion of stocks to avoid high investment risks Peng Hansheng said that the financial management robot uses AI technology models to gather 18 important global market indicators and economic trend forecasts for the next 1-3 months It can provide reversal suggestions when the market is about to fall sharply and avoid high investment risks Therefore, in The losses were relatively minor amid a sharp decline in global stock markets However, relatively speaking, when global stock markets rose sharply in April, the growth rate of financial management robots was relatively small, which is suitable for steady financial investors who pursue long-term performance Peng Hansheng said that investor financial management through AI algorithms can overcome the investment mistakes that ordinary investors are easily affected by emotions, news or irrational selling At the same time, in the form of a basket investment portfolio, It can also effectively diversify risks and reduce investment losses Integrated learning concepts can achieve dynamic asset allocation effects return on investment The so-called "ensemble learning" solves a single prediction problem by building a combination of several models Its working principle is to build multiple classifiersmodels on the data set, each independently learn and make predictions, and these predictions are finally combined into a single prediction The predictions are therefore better than those made by any single classifier In addition, using an "unsupervised" training and learning method, also known as "Hierarchical Clustering", the system will automatically classify the investment targets within the target range every month, allowing the machine to learn Financial report information, value investment, and then improve operational performance The choice of robot financial management as an entrepreneurial theme is mainly related to Peng Hansheng's financial engineering background He graduated from the Department of Finance at Tsinghua University and later went to Columbia University to study financial mathematics After graduation, he entered Wall Street to engage in quantitative trading 2-3 year time Three years ago, after witnessing the sudden ups and downs of the stock market and investors' irrational pursuit of highs and lows, resulting in investment failures, Peng Hansheng decided to contribute what he had learned to Taiwanese society and founded Liding Information Technology Company, specializing in robot financial services It is hoped that through the new smart financial management method driven by AI, it can help investors avoid bad luck and manage their finances steadily The most difficult thing about promoting AI financial management is that according to statistics, when financial management robots make investment portfolio recommendations, up to 40 of investors do not follow them, unable to overcome human weaknesses, and the final result is a losing position getting bigger In addition, in the B2B robot financial management market, the business logic of banks and insurance industries is different from that of financial management robots For example, banks specialize in wealth management, and high-end customers usually prefer direct service from financial specialists and do not like to interact with machines Therefore, promotion in the banking industry is difficult In the future, bank financial professionals or securities traders will be targeted, making the financial management robot an investment advice auxiliary tool for financial professionals and stock traders Peng Hansheng, co-founder and CEO of Liding Information Technology 「Translated

【2020 Solutions】 AI cold chain transportation chain breakage warning system significantly reduces the loss of goods due to temperature loss

Farmers work hard in the fields to produce the freshest, nutritious and delicious crops Without a good cold chain transportation system, not only will farmers’ hard work go to waste, but agricultural enterprises will also suffer losses due to temperature loss and damage to refrigerated goods Loss has also become a major pain point The AI cold chain transportation chain break warning system can help reduce costs and improve the efficiency of fruit and vegetable transportation and preservation Zhongtian Technology, founded in 2017, is committed to using Internet of Things technology to develop smart agriculture In addition to winning many awards such as the Smart City Innovation Application Award, it has also assisted private institutions such as Xingnong Group and the Agricultural Experimental Institute in the construction of Smart agricultural software and hardware equipment Monitoring temperature throughout the cold chain must rely on AI technology to assist Chen Zhiming, chief consultant of Zhongtian Technology and a professor at the School of Information at Lingdong University of Science and Technology, said that Xingnong Group, which has more than 200 fertilizer supply centers across the country, and its Yumei Research Company have the most high-end greenhouses in Taiwan, and its products include crops such as beef tomatoes , supplying Formosa Steaks, McDonald's, COSTCO and five-star hotels, etc Yumei Research itself has 3 refrigerated trucks and 12 refrigerated rooms However, the transportation of vegetables, fruits, fresh food and other food needs to be kept in a low-temperature environment The ambient temperature, humidity, carbon dioxide, position, and opening and closing of the transportation box during transportation need to be monitored in real time for owners to ensure Understanding whether the quality of refrigerated food storage and transportation is affected by temperature changes cannot be done through human monitoring and must rely on the assistance of AI technology Agriculture 40 simple APP operation interface At present, the general practice of cold chain equipment manufacturers is to place wireless temperature recording devices in refrigerated goods and transport them together to record whether the quality is affected by temperature changes during the entire transport process A small number of refrigerated trucks also use 4G networks to transmit The temperature information of the refrigerated space in the vehicle provides monitoring of temperature changes in the cold chain during movement However, the above two methods can only know whether the quality of the product is affected by temperature changes at the final arrival time, and cannot provide analysis and early warning for various conditions that may occur during product storage and transportation to ensure refrigeration Quality assurance and instant feedback of information during product delivery information Schematic diagram of cooperation between ICTIoT technology in agriculture Once the cargo status is abnormal or is about to occur, the AI system can immediately execute warning notifications, which can reduce the loss of broken links caused by environmental changes The overall cold chain monitoring scope extends from logistics and transportation to unloading, transshipment and storage, thereby building a complete cold chain monitoring system AI technology is introduced into the cold chain system, reducing product damage rate by 75 Chen Zhiming said that after the system is established, the proportion of refrigerated goods that are damaged due to temperature changes can be reduced by 75 At the same time, through AI intelligent judgment and statistical analysis algorithms, real-time information on each storage space, delivery vehicle and even pallets can be provided Usage status, it can provide intelligent scheduling and data analysis to increase the utilization rate of the overall cold chain system by 20, which is a good result Taiwan Fengkang Supermarket, owned by Yumei Research Company, has 48 stores north of Hsinchu in the province, with a wide range of products and 100 refrigerated trucks It is currently being planned by Guoxing Information, hoping to break the AI cold chain transportation chain The early warning system has been introduced into Fengkang supermarkets across the province, allowing consumers in metropolitan areas to enjoy better quality refrigerated fresh fruits, vegetables and food In addition to the AI cold chain transportation chain breakage warning system that solves the problem of freshness throughout the entire process "from the production area to the supermarket", agricultural enterprises also have a pain point In order to save electricity during the transportation process, outsourcing manufacturers may turn off the air conditioners on the vehicles In other words, during the 2-4 hour transportation process, the air conditioner may be turned on in the first half hour and the second half hour, and may be without air conditioning at other times In this situation, a Bluetooth data collector can also be installed in the pallet Temperature data is collected every five minutes to ensure that the goods are kept fresh throughout the transportation process Changes in refrigerated temperature trends Greenhouse temperature and humidity change trend chart Chen Zhiming said that Xingnong Group is Taiwan's leading agricultural enterprise Its subsidiary Guoxing Information can build a powerful AI expert system through knowledge in the agricultural field From greenhouses, logistics vehicles, warehouses, sub-warehouses to supermarkets, it can collect and collect data throughout the entire process Get refrigerated truck information For ordinary small farmers, resources are not abundant In the future, Zhongtian Technology will cooperate with Chunghwa Telecom to provide mobile APP promotion for a monthly fee to assist farmers in real-time monitoring of the environmental temperature, humidity, and wind speed required for planting Information such as direction, sunshine and rainfall can be used to facilitate farmers to respond early, and multiple fields can be controlled at the same time, which will greatly reduce the need for manpower and achieve the purpose of smart planting Chen Zhiming, Chief Consultant of Zhongtian Technology

【2020 Solutions】 All 10,000 background music tracks are AI-made: Anpu targets the global broadcasting market

"Why does the music industry need AI What problems can AI solve" These are the questions Zeng Zhizhong, the founder and CEO of Anpu Artificial Intelligence Co, Ltd, continuously asks himself Since founding the company in 2018, Zeng Zhizhong has understood market positioning and customer needs clearly Anpu uses AI composition to seize the global environmental music broadcasting market With the system online for over a month, AI has created more than 10,000 pieces of music, serving clients across cafes, car showrooms, restaurants, and hair salons with a "legal, free" broadcasting solution, becoming the first choice for stores Zeng Zhizhong is a serial entrepreneur with a background in both the internet and music He has served as the general manager of Taihe Music Group, director of music services for Microsoft and Nokia in Asia Pacific, founded AR company Emitia Technologies and streaming company Tianlida Technology, and currently operates a company called Ouster Music specializing in film and television soundtracks With a dual background in technology and music, Zeng Zhizhong navigates AI music to solve copyright dilemmas With his sharp senses in technology and music, particularly amidst the ongoing AI boom, Zeng Zhizhong constantly contemplates how to turn AI composition into a profitable business He analyzes examples such as Spotify with 100 million paid subscribers in the USA, 1 million in Taiwan's KK BOX, and the mainland China's IPO-listed QQ Music, all operating at a loss The primary issue lies with these platforms not owning the copyrights to the music they provide, despite offering membership subscriptions They must also pay royalties to record companies and creators, leading to 'the bigger they are, the more they lose' Zeng Zhizhong, with his tech and music background, hopes to carve a niche for AI-generated music In the music industry, there are two main domains ambient music background music, BGM and pop music Pop music involves a lengthy production chain including lyric writing, composition, arrangement, singing, harmonizing, mixing, and finalization, entailing high costs and investment risks Meanwhile, ambient music, used in malls, department stores, cafes, and restaurants, traditionally sees copyrights held by music industry associations in various countries, making acquisitions costly and time-consuming However, producing music in-house circumvents copyright issues Thus, composing with AI and retaining copyrights internally becomes a key to success According to the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry IFPI report, global music market revenues in 2018 grew by 97 to 191 billion, up from 174 billion in 2017 Streaming music revenue alone reached 89 billion, accounting for 47 of the global total, nearly half Publicly broadcasted music accounted for 10-15, marking a significant portion of the market Recognizing the immense potential of the market, Zeng Zhizhong then assessed the technical capabilities of AI music, candidly stating, "AI is not a cure-all" For concert performances or chart-topping pop music, human lyricists and composers are necessary to achieve desired effects, while AI composition typically handles simple, uncomplicated melodies Assembling a large music database coupled with proprietary AI algorithms for rapid music production Anpu Music's AI composition system utilizes algorithms that include Markov chains, neural networks, deep learning methods, and combines the company's proprietary algorithm MDN Music Deeplearning Network, which conforms to unique musical algorithmic theories, thus breaking through traditional pop music structures and styles to create more market-aligned music compositions The database aggregates a large amount of sheet music data from top charted tracks and renowned songs globally, initially analyzing and summarizing the characteristics and melodies of popular quality music, then employing deep learning for efficient and excellent outcomes in AI composition BGMRADIO公播平台上集結上萬首AI音樂 Anpu provides a clear AI solution for the complex music copyright environment, with a material library owning a vast amount of clear-cut copyrights over 10,000 music tracks in 50 different styles, allowing users to freely choose suitable music to enjoy Anpu's current business model is twofold one provides a web-based platform offering 10,000 free AI-generated music tracks for online listening, and the other involves custom music services for a fee Additionally, responding to the promotional needs of the record industry and artists, it also charges for advertisement playbacks Another revenue model involves renting music players to users, charging an annual rental fee BGMRADIO公播平台與其他公播平台之比較 Zeng Zhizhong states, "Music knows no borders good music doesn't distinguish between being created by humans or AI" With current AI algorithms and related technology being quite mature, using AI to produce music is not a difficult task The key is identifying market pain points for business opportunities Anpu's market spans Taiwan, Japan, Korea, Singapore, and it aims to continue expanding into China's largest market Having founded startups for 20 years in mainland China, Zeng Zhizhong's primary reason for starting a business back home is Taiwan's rich talent pool, especially the interdisciplinary talents Unlike typical AI or music companies, Anpu requires a large number of amphibious talents capable of both programming and music The company comprises two main departments the RampD department, mostly formed from graduates from NTHU and NCTU in electrical engineering, electronic engineering, and applied music, and the music production department, where after quick AI algorithmic composition in the RampD department, highly musically educated producers refine these AI compositions into high-quality music experiences 安譜團隊大多是科技與音樂兼具的跨域人才「Translated content is generated by ChatGPT and is for

【2020 Solutions】 AI + Desktop Touch Projector, Project Anywhere Without Harming Eyes

What is the next consumer electronics product that will spark a market frenzy after smartphones and tablets Recently on a crowdfunding platform, a 'smart projector' raised more than NT10 million in just half a month, becoming a hot market focus Formed just over a year ago, Drip-Drop Technology's 'smart touch ultra-short-throw projector' is smaller than a tablet and weighs less than one kilogram It uses ultra-short-throw optical projection to project an 80-inch image from just 50 cm away from the wall Most importantly, the projector features virtual finger touch control This means that inside the lens, an AI algorithm is utilized, allowing the camera to actively learn to recognize fingers and the environment through machine learning When the image is projected onto a table or wall, no remote control is needed operations can be directly controlled by touching with fingers The Drip-Drop Technology team currently has 4 members, focusing on research and development The founders have over 10 years of experience in projector development and mass production, including co-founders Wang Shouzheng, You Xianglin, and Chen Zhengfang, who participated in the development of the first laser TV ultra-short-throw laser projector launched by Hisense Group in China In collaboration with Lin Zuoxian, a part-time lecturer at Ming Chuan University who also joined the team in 2019 as the general manager, handling IP, crowdfunding, and business operations management, the rest of the team concentrates on developing interactive projection technology and products to build the smart touch projector General Manager of Drip-Drop Technology, Lin Zuoxian Smart Touch Projector, a Key Player in the Future Smart Home At the end of 2018, Wang Shouzheng met Gao Yuan, a professor in the Marketing and Distribution Management Department of the Business and Management College at Gao Yuan University of Science and Technology, specializing in artificial intelligence, multimedia interaction Unity, and smart interaction devices APP They hit it off immediately, with Gao Yuan not only becoming the director of RampD but also becoming a shareholder of Drip-Drop Technology last year Wang Shouzheng explained that unlike traditional projectors, the smart touch projector can not only be controlled by touching the screen with fingers but also by hand gestures, such as swiping left or right to adjust the volume or the screen brightness It can also be used to control household appliances in the future Despite the technical challenges of projecting on tabletops and controlling by touch, continuous optimization of recognition technology through AI algorithms has been crucial Within the first half-month of its crowdfunding campaign in February 2020, it raised over ten million dollars, with an expected delivery of 400 units Wang Shouzheng believes the greatest challenge in developing the projector was dealing with AI algorithms The projection might encounter different materials such as glass, wood, or plastic, compounded by lights, angles, background, and interference such as coffee cups, creating varying parameters The projector sensors must automatically adjust to the surrounding environment to avoid false touches The projector lens processes 200 finger position frames per minute, and through continuous machine learning, the recognition accuracy has significantly increased Comparison between Smart Touch Projector and Traditional Projector AI algorithms significantly enhance precision, sensitivity, and recognition in finger touch control The Smart Touch Projector will be used in education, entertainment, and business sectors Wang Shouzheng mentioned that originally, the smart touch projector was designed for home entertainment, such as providing a larger interactive projection surface to replace traditional smartphones and tablets for family interactions However, its potential for multiple uses was soon discovered, like in smart kitchens where chefs can interact directly with the projection, avoiding issues when hands are dirty during cooking It also provides ease of use for the elderly because of larger controls and reducing eye strain Playing mobile games with a Smart Touch Projector offers a unique experience In business settings, it can be used to establish interactive projection-based ordering systems, allowing customers to directly interact and order, while businesses can integrate other digital media content to provide diverse services This includes real estate agents and insurance agents who need to attract business outside the office, as they can achieve better results through the smart touch projector Low blue light and diffuse reflection are among the technologies that help protect eye health, making the smart touch projector a significant upgrade from tablets Drip-Drop aims to secure four patents by the end of 2020 and plans to expand to mainland China within 1-2 years through crowdfunding, allowing more industries to choose smarter options Drip-Drop Technology Team「Translated content is generated by ChatGPT and is for reference only Translation

【2020 Solutions】 AI Fish Farming Increases Yield by 30%, Saves Energy by 50%

Taiwan is known as the 'Kingdom of Shrimp Farming' However, due to drastic weather changes and the inability to pass on farming experience, the risks for farmers are increasing Through AIoT Artificial Intelligence combined with IoT, Kuanwei Technology has started a trend in smart aquaculture, innovating the traditional aquaculture value According to the statistics from the Council of Agriculture, the total fishery production value in Taiwan is around NT100 billion, of which NT60 billion is contributed by offshore fisheries through exports, and NT40 billion is from coastal and aquaculture fisheries The aquaculture industry, which spans 40,000 hectares, has been a strong support in Taiwan's progress from the 'Kingdom of Eels', 'Kingdom of Shrimp', 'Kingdom of Ornamental Fish' to the 'Kingdom of Tilapia' However, affected by drastic changes in weather, the winters of 2018 and 2019 were notably warm, averaging the highest temperatures in 72 years, disrupting the breeding cycle of fisheries and severely impacting production AI Fish Farming Reduces Costs by 30 and Increases Production Capacity by 30 Although fishermen also 'depend on the weather for food', they can minimize risks with the aid of artificial intelligence Located in Hsinchu, Kuanwei Technology focuses on the development of IoT systems and AI algorithms for the aquaculture industry, developing the 'Water Jewel Smart Aquaculture Monitoring System' and the 'Smart Device Control System' These assist operators in obtaining real-time data such as temperature, dissolved oxygen DO, pH value, redox potential ORP, and salinity With the smart device control system installed, users can start water wheels and set automatic feeding depending on dissolved oxygen in the water Fishers only need to use a mobile app to keep track at any time, allowing for early prevention and reducing losses By adopting technology in aquaculture, costs are effectively reduced, creating endless business opportunities Fishermen can accurately monitor and control the water quality and growth process of aquatic products, hence providing safer food to consumers Kuanwei Technology's CEO, Tsai Cheng-hsun, indicated that traditional fishing methods involve measuring water quality twice daily and feeding based on experience, which not only is time-consuming but could also negatively affect water quality due to environments' drastic changes or overfeeding The 'Water Jewel Smart Aquaculture Monitoring System' continuously collects data every five minutes, gathering up to 1,000 data points per day if any abnormality occurs, such as overfeeding causing turbid water pollution, or abnormal water temperatures, it communicates these problems to the fishers via the app, allowing immediate remediation AI Monitors Water Quality Changes Kuanwei Technology's CEO Tsai Cheng-hsun Tsai Cheng-hsun stated that by monitoring data and keeping it within normal ranges, they can avoid unnecessary water stirring or feeding, thus maintaining water quality stability and reducing costs Typically, half of the farm costs are feed and electricity accounts for 15-20 According to research by Dr Luo Yong-zhong from the National Cheng Kung University 'Microalgae Biotech and Engineering Lab', after implementing the 'Water Jewel Smart Aquaculture Monitoring System', electricity costs can be reduced by nearly 60, and with reduced feed input, the overall farming costs can be reduced by 30 300 Pools Across Taiwan Adopting Water Jewel Smart Aquaculture Monitoring System A study by the Ocean University also pointed out that technological equipment, along with basic infrastructure such as waste pipes, should increase the aquaculture output by 30 For fishers, smart aquaculture truly helps in increasing profits significantly Aquaculture expert Huang Guo-liang in Tainan's Jiangjun area is the third generation cultivating milkfish, utilizing ecological balance and friendly farming methods through smart monitoring systems for problem detection and optimizes productivity while reducing costs Tsai Cheng-hsun stated that the Water Jewel leverages solar power, reports fish pond water data every 5 minutes, and for the Giant Grouper, for example, which needs at least three years to grow and weigh about 20 kg to be marketable With temperature alerts set at 16 degrees Celsius, if a cold snap occurs and temperatures drop below 10 degrees Celsius, Giant Grouper could freeze to death By monitoring such instances, preventive actions can reduce losses Kuanwei Technology currently has introduced its system to 300 farming pools across Taiwan, including in Hsinchu, Fangliao, Hualien, and Taitung, employing Water Jewel's remote water quality and environmental monitoring, smart energy-saving, automatic feeding, and automated production traceability features This allows every farmer to record their farming data and process according to their own habits They can choose to manually control or use AI assistance for real-time alerts and also monitor sites through remote video links to make the Water Jewel aquatic farming IoT system more accessible Water Quality Monitoring Equipment Fishermen, reliant on the weather, can now monitor aquaculture pond water quality through the AI monitoring system Tsai Cheng-hsun, currently the first term manager of the Taiwan Artificial Intelligence School Hsinchu branch and the vice president of the Taiwan Artificial Intelligence School Alumni Association, is deeply committed to AI research In the future, Kuanwei Technology will continue to optimize data, proposing more applications, and has received recognition from Intel for IoT solutions maturity in Taiwan By utilizing cloud, big data IoT, and AI technologies and equipment
