Topic: Embedding Intelligence in IoT Edge
This talk is intended to provide an overview of concepts on the internet of Things (IoT), which would foster the development and deployment to manage smart sensors and develop infrastructure.
The recent technological advancements in sensors, wireless communications, low-power computing and the internet itself have led to a technical revolution called the Internet of Things. In recent past, we have seen a world being constantly filled with various smart things that are connected to the Internet of Things (IoT)/ in Cloud. As a result, a lot of research areas have emerged, amongst them, smart homes, wearable technology, industrial IoT, smartphones and intelligent transport systems to name a few. A closer look into the emerging areas indicates a trend to augment the physical devices or objects with sensing, computing, and its communication capabilities. These smart objects are connected together to form a network to make use of the collective effect of networked smart objects.
Question from Shri Jagadeesha chinagudi
Researcher / Scientist / Engineer at Indian Space Research Organisation,NRSC-RRSC-South
Question : Highly stuffed informative message. The practical applications in the field departments and industries like MSME are yet to begin digitization process ,digitization process or digital transfer process. Any information on these for Indian Govt Departments and MSMEs are available?
Answer;
Sir gm.. thank you so much for your kind words.
Sir , Digital transformation is about entering MSME and also in Govt Departments. Mostly , the plan is to deploy in a local server machine or in an Amazon cloud machine. For example, camera is collecting pic and inferencing done on the server. Camera is just an image collection device and there is no AI inference in camera. Imagine, companies deploy a camera with AI.!!!!
sir ,we can give this IP to companies and let them make their staff add value instead of starting from the basics. For example , their work force can use this IP to make AI camera or AI cooker or AI street and AI in small office security..etc..
Question : I think, I have to clarify some terminologies, I used earlier by me Digitization means e- records ( doc or docx or odt or Excel sheets etc) of the MSME companies or even a gram panchayat or Watershed department ( it's sub divisions) or horticulture department (it's sub divisions. ) Irrigation department or revenue department , land records department etc
Digitization. :I mean arranging e- records or event adding new records to understand the processes of the management of office works mandated to them,
Digital transfer means - The CSE and ICT technologies needed to automate the processes of an organisation to deliver its mandated functions .For ex: Farmer producer organisation which has its functions as e- telling the farmer the price of agri products, availability ( geographical locations ) of seeds fertilizers pesticides, tractors, harvesters , cold storage transport infrastructure nearest to him etc. Other exams is say water supply network : Automated water supply system at village s / gram panchayats should transfer all its network indicators on to a dash boards at Panchyat level to know at what amount and velocity and pressure both drinking water is supplied to all households daily or certain time intervals depending on availability of water , ground water and tank water use for agriculture as a process of functions under various institutes connected with gram panchyat departments etc
Answer;
Sir , AI work flow is part of Digitization and IoT also part of Digitization. DLtrain designed to provide deep learned Neural network enabled real time ( of non real time inference ) inference capability. For example Panchayat water network can deploy DLtrain in their village water network to handle Quality of Water supply and predict Peak requirements of water in a given day such that people get to have high quality water supply service for them. But use is , how to deploy AI in Water Pump, AI in Level sensor etc. In above given tutorial, Methods and apparatus are given in detail to handle "deployment of AI in Water Pump, or AI in Level Sensor etc".

Question from Shri Rajesh K Jeyapaul
IBM
Question : good to know jk...is it a quantized model ?
Answer;
super question.
Maybe I can take you along to www.epigon,in and its innovation in similar problems.
For example, a music decoder ( mp3) produces music if a computational workflow is applied on a given encoded mp3 bit stream.
ISO /IEC 11172 - 3 does provide a computational workflow for mp3 decoding. But there is no guideline for executing that in a given DSP or CPU. Thus experienced engineers who understand DSP / GPU well are required to carry out translation of ISO IEC given computational workflow into feasible work for a given DSP or CPU. This 8s trick that results in writing an mp3 decoder for a given DSP. Decoded music might be similar and need not be same. Thus quality of audio depends on 16 bit dsp vs 24 bit dsp etc..
