TALON

Next-generation industrial systems promise to deliver unprecedented excellence not only in terms of performance, but also explainability, trustworthiness and transparency. To achieve this new objectives, state-of-the-art concepts of artificial intelligence (AI), edge-to-cloud (E2C) computing, blockchain, and visualisation need to be de-risked and applied. Motivated by this, TALON aims at sculpturing the road towards the next Industrial revolution by developing a fully-automated AI architecture capable of bringing intelligence near the edge in a flexible, adaptable, explainable, energy and data efficient manner.

ITI is participating at the technical aspects of the TALON project. ITI will contribute in the definition of TALON’s user and system requirements for the various use cases and the overall system, as well as in the definition of the KPIs, requirements, and the technology enablers towards achieving TALON’s objectives. Furthermore, ITI will participate in the performance assessment via modelling & real-world results, the overall architecture & platform design, monitoring & visualisation mechanisms, installation and demonstration planning, as well as in the dissemination activities. Last but not least, it will contribute to the following areas: Human detection and identification toolkit, Human pose tracking software, Human activity recognition and behaviour monitoring toolkit, Robot cognitive functions toolkit. TALON will investigate and leverage Knowledge tools and results related to the integration of Human-AI collaboration, as well as the AI orchestration.
