Pioneers Talk #22: Predicting the Future with AI

Artificial intelligence, when implemented correctly, can greatly enhance the steel production process—for instance, by predicting metallurgically relevant parameter values or by further stabilizing the inner workings of the plant. However, not all AI algorithms are made the same, according to Dr. Petra Krahwinkler, Senior Expert at Primetals Technologies. Dr. Krahwinkler knows how to tackle the “black box” problem, to design “random forest” algorithms, and to remain unafraid of “unknown events.” In this episode of Pioneers Talk, she takes us deep into the realm of machine learning.
