It’s Time to Revisit the ‘Arsenal of Democracy.’ Involving Smaller Manufacturers Is Key.
The war in Ukraine has changed Western military doctrine. This is noteworthy as the Department of Defense embraces phrases like “near-peer competition,” “pacing challenge” and “great power competition” as a way to address growing concerns about the actions of China and Russia. Unfortunately, the stark reality is the U.S. and its Western allies have not shifted away fast enough from decades of focus on regional conflicts and counterterrorism operations.
Multivariate Time-Series Classification of Critical Events from Industrial Drying Hopper Operations: A Deep Learning Approach
4.3. Experiment Results We followed the approach proposed in [22] and, in the final experiment, 10 runs were conducted for each deep learning and machine learning algorithm. The primary objective in this drying hopper case was to accurately detect events for predictive maintenance purposes. Since the number of non-events was significantly higher, correctly identifying non-events automatically resulted in high accuracy regardless of whether the model was able to identify the events or not.
Trabajador 4.0 = humano + tecnología
Los robots se han hecho cargo de tareas físicas difíciles, peligrosas y repetitivas, mejorando la seguridad de las fábricas, la comodidad del trabajador y la calidad del producto. La próxima fase de innovación laboral hará lo mismo con el trabajo cognitivo, eliminando de nuestra rutina diaria las tareas mentalmente estresantes y repetitivas. El trabajo humano será más versátil y creativo. Los robots y las personas trabajarán más unidos que nunca.
To program robots is human, to problem-solve is divine

Introducing ‘Operator 4.0,’ a tech-augmented human worker - The Associated Press
By Thorsten Wuest / West Virginia University THE Fourth Industrial Revolution has arrived. The first was the steam engine-driven Industrial Revolution; the second involved the innovations from Henry Ford’s assembly line. Third, microelectronics and computer power appeared on factory floors. Now, manufacturing businesses are beginning to integrate robotics, automation and other data-driven technologies into their workflows.
This is what the next generation of tech-augmented work for humans will look like
