APMS 2021 – 5 – 9 September 2021

COALA at a special session “Human-centered Artificial Intelligence in Smart Manufacturing for the Operator 4.0”

COALA project co-organises a special session “Human-centered Artificial Intelligence in Smart Manufacturing for the Operator 4.0” at APMS 2021.

The scope of this session is on Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HCAI) systems. Such systems view AI as a critical component for augmenting human work and extending human capabilities, thus they can be considered the AI-enablers for the Operator 4.0 concept.

The aim is that AI systems and humans solve problems together to achieve goals that were unreachable by either humans or machines alone. In this context, the special track welcomes research contributions on, but not limited to, topics like: design issues for multimodal human-AI interactions in the industrial environment, digital intelligent assistants, software robots (softbots) and chatbots for production management, Artificial Intelligence for the Operator 4.0, explainable and transparent AI in manufacturing, methods and tools to manage and monitor HCAI systems, applications of HCAI systems in manufacturing, and business models and processes based on HCAI systems.  

COALA partners, Alexandros Bousdekis from ICCS presented a joint paper entitled “Human-AI Collaboration in Quality Control with Augmented Manufacturing Analytics” and Stefan Wellsandt from BIBA presented a joint paper entitled “Anatomy Digital Assistant“.
