Edge Analytics with Computer Visión and Augmented Reality
A picture is worth more than a thousand words. Computer vision (CV) is the field of artificial intelligence that enables the analysis of real-world images and videos, often in edge environments where equipment and IoT devices are installed. Deep learning models can accurately identify and classify objects from digital images, videos, and sensor data, and suggest interventions such as equipment maintenance. Attend this session and learn how to achieve end-to-end solutions for your organization by analyzing sensor data and images in edge, AR, and VR environments.

Hyperconverged Analytics in Sustainable Energy
Solar energy is the world's fastest-growing electricity source. Energy teams use TIBCO?s Hyperconverged Analytics platform ? TIBCO Data Science, TIBCO Spotfire, and TIBCO Data Virtualization software ? to create time series models and heat maps that identify optimal locations for solar farms. The analyses enable infrastructure planning in energy, manufacturing, and other verticals. We'll demonstrate a dashboard that uses several data sources to forecast energy production so that solar and wind farm planners can make decisions from projected outputs.

Analytics and Data Science for Risk Management
Risks from credit card fraud to machine failure and cargo mistreatment affects many industries. Using TIBCO Spotfire and TIBCO Streaming software, the TIBCO Risk Management Accelerator allows non-experts to analyze events in real time. Our dashboard evaluates any transactional or event dataset with machine learning models and generates a prediction of risk. Beyond easy-to-use predictive power, further insight is provided by quantifying the factors influencing risk and providing tools for making trade-offs based on the likely cost of various actions.

Digital Twins for Manufacturing Product Yield Optimization
The convergence of IoT, machine learning, and big data technology has given rise to the digital twin - the generation of digital data to represent a physical object. Using the growing volumes of data from process equipment sensors, these digital twins are becoming key to efficient operations and high product yields as process complexity increases. This demo provides an example of a semiconductor manufacturing digital twin for product yield that detects associations between yield loss and thousands of machine sensor traces.
