Dataiku Partners with UAVIA to Deploy Machine Learning Models for Edge Computing on Drones

Dataiku, one of the world's driving Enterprise AI and machine learning platforms, and UAVIA, the European Enterprise-Grade Robotics Data Platform leader, declared that their joint product collaboration has brought about a groundbreaking, completely robotized answer for training and conveying machine learning models for edge computing on drones. The start to finish arrangement empowers industrial administrators to send neural organization models on drones controlled by UAVIA's implanted insight, utilizing Dataiku to construct and train models while consequently changing over and streamlining them for use in any UAVIA Inside drone.

“Optimum data analysis is an essential element of Industry 4.0, which has the potential to completely transform industrial practices,” explains Florian Douetteau, CEO of Dataiku. “This partnership with UAVIA enables the valorization of data collected through robotics on industrial sites and ultimately provides operators on site with critical decision making assistance for their daily tasks. It aligns with our mission at Dataiku of helping teams deliver analytics using the latest techniques and doing so at scale.”

This collaboration is particularly interesting for two reasons. In the first place, running a machine learning model progressively for edge computing used to require weighty manual changes to adjust memory size and speed of execution to the installed PC. With Dataiku and UAVIA, the cycle has been completely robotized. Further, flying in excess of 260 feet over the ground implies that a human-size component just covers a couple of pixels, prompting unreasonable bogus positive identifications. The execution of constant discovery tracker technology tackles this issue.

“The outcome of this collaboration with Dataiku affirms our position as a leading deep-tech supplier in the robotization of industrial operations,” said Pierre Vilpoux, CEO of UAVIA. “Beyond technological intelligence, we share another goal with Dataiku providing an abstraction layer above technology to make it accessible and beneficial for everyone.”

The quick operational utilization of this joint advancement is that a model trained with Dataiku's across the board platform can be improved and sent with a solitary snap on the UAVIA Robotics Platform. This implies that drones become fit for hazard identification and relief all alone or can tally resources on location, showing a couple of the many use cases for industrial site monitoring.
