智慧農業的成功因素

林一平,智慧農業的成功因素,電子時報,2023-08-21

在台灣,農業物聯網感測設備供應商眾多,然而通訊技術和資料傳輸格式卻千差萬別,導致資料在不同系統間的流通和加值應用面臨著困難。

為了解決這一重要問題,農業部於2023年4月27日推出「智慧農業感測資料格式標準與測試規範」。透過推動資料格式的標準化,提高農業物聯網應用領域中資料串接的效率,同時也降低開發成本,推動農業物聯網的深入應用。

機率與統計的應用

生活中到處充滿著不確定性,例如吃飯排隊的等候時間、機台生產的良率、民調統計數字的分析等等。工業系也開設許多相關的課程,例如品質管制、資料分析、智慧製造、實驗設計、機器學習、人工智慧等等,以解決工商業的問題

許多人修這門課的時候,很痛苦 (1)。除了了解其應用外,建議可以念一些科普的書,增加學習動機:

電路和電子學的產業知識

工業與系統工程學系隸屬於電機資訊學院,所以系上同學們都要修習電路學和電子學相關的課程。在電機系,這些是非常重要的基礎知識;而且,從 IC 設計、晶圓代工、到封裝測試,台灣有許多世界級的領導廠商,所以,值得同學們好好地學習相關的知識。更多資訊

以下介紹一些科普和整體產業的書籍,希望可以增加同學們的學習動機,並且增加職涯發展的機會:

Champion-level drone racing using deep reinforcement learning

Kaufmann, E., Bauersfeld, L., Loquercio, A. et al. Champion-level drone racing using deep reinforcement learning. Nature 620, 982–987 (2023). https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-023-06419-4

First-person view (FPV) drone racing is a televised sport in which professional competitors pilot high-speed aircraft through a 3D circuit. Each pilot sees the environment from the perspective of their drone by means of video streamed from an onboard camera. Reaching the level of professional pilots with an autonomous drone is challenging because the robot needs to fly at its physical limits while estimating its speed and location in the circuit exclusively from onboard sensors. Here we introduce Swift, an autonomous system that can race physical vehicles at the level of the human world champions. The system combines deep reinforcement learning (RL) in simulation with data collected in the physical world. Swift competed against three human champions, including the world champions of two international leagues, in real-world head-to-head races. Swift won several races against each of the human champions and demonstrated the fastest recorded race time. This work represents a milestone for mobile robotics and machine intelligence, which may inspire the deployment of hybrid learning-based solutions in other physical systems.
