An Assessment of the AI Regulation Proposed by the European Commission

In: The Future Circle of Healthcare: AI, 3D Printing, Longevity, Ethics, and Uncertainty Mitigation. null (Future of Business and Finance)

Cham, Switzerland

  • (2022)
In April 2021, the European Commission published a proposed regulation on AI. It intends to create a uniform legal framework for AI within the European Union (EU). In this chapter, we analyze and assess the proposal. We show that the proposed regulation is actually not needed due to existing regulations. We also argue that the proposal clearly poses the risk of overregulation. As a consequence, this would make the use or development of AI applications in safety-critical application areas, such as in healthcare, almost impossible in the EU. This would also likely further strengthen Chinese and US corporations in their technology leadership. Our assessment is based on the oral evidence we gave in May 2021 to the joint session of the European Union affairs committees of the German federal parliament and the French National Assembly.

Introduction: Trends, Puzzles and Hopes for the Future of Healthcare

In: The Future Circle of Healthcare: AI, 3D Printing, Longevity, Ethics, and Uncertainty Mitigation. null (Future of Business and Finance)

Cham, Switzerland

  • (2022)
This book is being published at a time when the collective attention of the world has been focused, for more than 2 years, on the coronavirus pandemic. The interrelatedness of various facets of biomedicine (whether scientific, societal, political, legal, or cultural) has been vividly illustrated to health practitioners, researchers, and the public at large—often on a very personal level. It is now manifestly obvious to many that planning for the future of clinical and experimental medicine is a must. Although the task of predicting the exact trajectory of any profession might be in vain, it is essential that one at least looks at past and current trends in order to envision future scenarios and plan for them.

Staying Ahead in the MOOC-Era by Teaching Innovative AI Courses

pg. 5-9.

  • (2021)
As a result of the rapidly advancing digital transformation of teaching, universities have started to face major competition from Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs). Universities thus have to set themselves apart from MOOCs in order to justify the added value of three to five-year degree programs to prospective students. In this paper, we show how we address this challenge at Deggendorf Institute of Technology in ML and AI. We first share our best practices and present two concrete courses including their unique selling propositions: Computer Vision and Innovation Management for AI. We then demonstrate how these courses contribute to Deggendorf Institute of Technology's ability to differentiate itself from MOOCs (and other universities).

Big Data-Driven Detection of False Data Injection Attacks in Smart Meters

In: IEEE Access vol. 9 pg. 144313-144326.

  • (2021)

DOI: 10.1109/ACCESS.2021.3122009

Today’s energy resources are closer to consumers thanks to sustainable energy and advanced metering infrastructure (AMI), such as smart meters. Smart meters are controlled and manipulated through various interfaces in smart grids, such as cyber, physical and social interfaces. Recently, a large number of non-technical losses (NTLs) have been reported in smart grids worldwide. These are partially caused by false data injections (FDIs). Therefore, ensuring a secure communication medium and protected AMIs is critical to ensuring reliable power supply to consumers. In this paper, we propose a novel Big Data-driven solution that employs machine learning, deep learning and parallel computing techniques. We additionally obtained robust statistical features to detect the FDIs based cyber threats at the distribution level. The performance of the proposed model for NTL detection is investigated using private smart grid datasets in the Turkish distribution network for AMI-level cyber threats, and the results are compared to state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms used for NTL classification problems. Our approach shows promising results, as the accuracy, specificity, and precision metrics of most classifiers are above 90% and false positive rates vary between 0.005 to 0.027.

Efficiently Delivering Healthcare by Repurposing Solution Principles from Industrial Condition Monitoring: A Meta-Analysis

In: Digitalization in Healthcare. Implementing Innovation and Artificial Intelligence (Future of Business and Finance) pg. 171-176.

  • (2021)
As people get older, home care and hospital care services need to scale while maintaining humane quality standards. Qualified workers in sufficient quantities are the most important factor on the road to the future of healthcare. Therefore, automation and digital solutions are to become indispensable in order to enable both sufficient quantity and quality of care services. Such technologies can be particularly helpful when monitoring dependent persons. Our interdisciplinary team conducted a meta-analysis of the state of the art of industrial condition monitoring. We discovered 15 technological principles that look promising to find repurpose in the healthcare sector. We also propose vitally needed healthcare use cases derived from these principles. The outcomes of our analysis provide the opportunity to quickly and cost effectively deliver new products and services in healthcare.

Impact of Biases in Big Data

pg. 645-654.

  • (2018)
The underlying paradigm of big data-driven machine learning reflects the desire of deriving better conclusions from simply analyzing more data, without the necessity of looking at theory and models. Is having simply more data always helpful? In 1936, The Literary Digest collected 2.3M filled in questionnaires to predict the outcome of that year's US presidential election. The outcome of this big data prediction proved to be entirely wrong, whereas George Gallup only needed 3K handpicked people to make an accurate prediction. Generally, biases occur in machine learning whenever the distributions of training set and test set are different. In this work, we provide a review of different sorts of biases in (big) data sets in machine learning. We provide definitions and discussions of the most commonly appearing biases in machine learning: class imbalance and covariate shift. We also show how these biases can be quantified and corrected. This work is an introductory text for both researchers and practitioners to become more aware of this topic and thus to derive more reliable models for their learning problems.

The Challenge of Non-Technical Loss Detection Using Artificial Intelligence: A Survey

In: International Journal of Computational Intelligence Systems vol. 10 pg. 760-775.

  • (2017)

DOI: 10.2991/ijcis.2017.10.1.51

Detection of non-technical losses (NTL) which include electricity theft, faulty meters or billing errors has attracted increasing attention from researchers in electrical engineering and computer science. NTLs cause significant harm to the economy, as in some countries they may range up to 40% of the total electricity distributed. The predominant research direction is employing artificial intelligence to predict whether a customer causes NTL. This paper first provides an overview of how NTLs are defined and their impact on economies, which include loss of revenue and profit of electricity providers and decrease of the stability and reliability of electrical power grids. It then surveys the state-of-the-art research efforts in a up-to-date and comprehensive review of algorithms, features and data sets used. It finally identifies the key scientific and engineering challenges in NTL detection and suggests how they could be addressed in the future.

Identifying Irregular Power Usage by Turning Predictions into Holographic Spatial Visualizations

  • (2017)

DOI: 10.1109/ICDMW.2017.40

Power grids are critical infrastructure assets that face non-technical losses (NTL) such as electricity theft or faulty meters. NTL may range up to 40% of the total electricity distributed in emerging countries. Industrial NTL detection systems are still largely based on expert knowledge when deciding whether to carry out costly on-site inspections of customers. Electricity providers are reluctant to move to large-scale deployments of automated systems that learn NTL profiles from data due to the latter's propensity to suggest a large number of unnecessary inspections. In this paper, we propose a novel system that combines automated statistical decision making with expert knowledge. First, we propose a machine learning framework that classifies customers into NTL or non-NTL using a variety of features derived from the customers' consumption data. The methodology used is specifically tailored to the level of noise in the data. Second, in order to allow human experts to feed their knowledge in the decision loop, we propose a method for visualizing prediction results at various granularity levels in a spatial hologram. Our approach allows domain experts to put the classification results into the context of the data and to incorporate their knowledge for making the final decisions of which customers to inspect. This work has resulted in appreciable results on a real-world data set of 3.6M customers. Our system is being deployed in a commercial NTL detection software.

Large-scale detection of non-technical losses in imbalanced data sets

  • (2016)

DOI: 10.1109/ISGT.2016.7781159

Non-technical losses (NTL) such as electricity theft cause significant harm to our economies, as in some countries they may range up to 40% of the total electricity distributed. Detecting NTLs requires costly on-site inspections. Accurate prediction of NTLs for customers using machine learning is therefore crucial. To date, related research largely ignore that the two classes of regular and non-regular customers are highly imbalanced, that NTL proportions may change and mostly consider small data sets, often not allowing to deploy the results in production. In this paper, we present a comprehensive approach to assess three NTL detection models for different NTL proportions in large real world data sets of 100Ks of customers: Boolean rules, fuzzy logic and Support Vector Machine. This work has resulted in appreciable results that are about to be deployed in a leading industry solution. We believe that the considerations and observations made in this contribution are necessary for future smart meter research in order to report their effectiveness on imbalanced and large real world data sets.
