Lennart Kuhr, M.Sc.

Motivation:

• Modern industrial production requires its systems to increase productivity, efficiency as well as to autonomously adapt to changing tasks and environments.
• The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies into the workflows of digital information systems, e.g. for production planning and control (PPS), enables this through cognitive automation of routine tasks and cognitive assistance in high workload situations. 
• Especially generative AI provides promising capabilities as it supports agentic orchestration of multimodal workflows. 

Content of the work:

• Investigation of the mentioned technologies and approaches based on a demonstrator setup in the IWF Learning Factory consisting of a PPS software prototype and an installation of the agent orchestration framework LangChain. 
• Literature review, conceptualization, implementation and testing of an agentic workflow integrated into the demonstrator environment.

In case you are interested, please send an inquiry via email. Ideally attach your CV and transcript of records.

Motivation:

• Modern industrial production requires its‘ systems to increase productivity, efficiency as well as autonomously adapt to changing tasks and environments
• Integrating generative AI technologies into the quality inspection processes could enable the detection of previously unseen defect schemes (zero-shot) and at the same time enhance explainability of inspection findings in natural language

Content of the work:

• Investigate the robust deployment of Vision-Language-Models (VLMs) in industrial quality inspection systems and validate the zero-shot capability as well as explainability
• Conceptualize, implementent and test state of the art approaches based on a demonstrator setup in the Learning Factory of IWF providing vision and compute hardware, software frameworks and use cases
