A new CEN Workshop is being established entitled “Reference Architecture for AI solutions’ application within process industry – the EU project s-X-AIPI experience”. This Workshop arises from the Horizon 2020 s-X-AIPI project (self-X Artificial Intelligence for European Process Industry digital transformation). The s-X-AIPI project endeavour is to research, develop, test, and validate a bespoke suite of trustworthy self-X AI technologies tailored for process industries. This initiative aims to bridge the gap between AI capabilities and traditional automation processes, ensuring that AI tools are both accessible and effective across various industrial applications.
A significant aspect of the s-X-AIPI toolset is its focus on accommodating the diverse skill levels of workers, integrating self-adaptation capabilities that respect and enhance the human-in-the-loop role. This approach ensures that the AI technologies developed are not only advanced but also aligned with the practical needs and profiles of the workforce involved.
The primary outcome of the s-X-AIPI project is to cultivate a portfolio of AI technologies that are:
This CEN Workshop is proposed to fulfil the objective of translating the knowledge and innovations developed in the s-X-AIPI project into practical, applicable strategies for the process industry. It serves as a critical platform for interaction between project stakeholders — including researchers, industry experts, and end-users. This engagement ensures that the insights garnered from the research are effectively communicated and integrated into industrial practices, while also providing an opportunity for stakeholders to articulate their specific needs and requirements.
The workshop will showcase preliminary results from the s-X-AIPI project, highlighting key technological advancements and methodological innovations. These presentations will not only demonstrate the project’s contributions to AI in the process industry but also set the stage for their practical application through the Reference Architecture.
The kick-off meeting for the Workshop is planned to take place remotely on 11 February 2025 from 10.00 a.m. to 12.00 p.m. (CEST).
All interested parties are invited to submit comments on the draft Project Plan using the commenting form below, to the Workshop secretary (UNE) Amanda Suo (asuo@une.org) by February 07th, 2025.
For more technical details, please refer to the draft Project Plan, which contains all relevant technical information. Additionally, comments or observations can be submitted via the dedicated commenting form below.
