As Presidential Executive Orders put more emphasis on the wide implementation of AI within the government, agencies accelerated AI adoption, integrating the technology into their operations to automate processes, improve quality and increase efficiencies.The pandemic and other events over the past year have illustrated the need for agencies to anticipate and prevent problems rather than just react to them. Data is a critical component of any operational entity. Agencies are deriving greater insights from data by applying AI and machine learning capabilities to proactively identify trends in service or projected surges in service requirements. Other agencies are applying AI s pattern recognition capabilities to identify anomalous activity or suspected fraud in federal programs, ensuring the best use and allocation of funds much faster than humans. Moreover, agencies are using intelligent systems to automate both collection and aggregation of government data, to provide deeper understanding and more targeted analysis.However, as agencies look to apply AI/ML to improve productivity and operational efficiency, siloed data from legacy systems still pose barriers to achieving the expected outcomes. This webinar will bring together thought-leaders who will discuss how agencies can unleash the power of data analytics and AI to help eliminate data silos, migrate from and retire legacy systems, standardize data collection and ingestion, and integrate data sources both within and across agencies for rapid decision-making and innovation.Please join us April 14, 2021 to learn how agencies can use AI/ML at scale to accelerate decision making while improving the effectiveness and efficiency of government services. https://afceacmd.swoogo.com/April2021Luncheon AFCEA CMD April Luncheon - 04/14/2021 - zoomgov.com (Please register for link), Web https://afceacmd.swoogo.com/April2021Luncheon <p>Key Note speeches from industry leaders, networking, and updates on upcoming events for members of the AFCEA Central MD Chapter!</p><p>Luncheon details coming soon...</p> https://siliconvalley.afceachapters.org/future-next-generation-autonomous-systems-0 The Future of Next-Generation Autonomous Systems - 04/14/2021 - Web https://siliconvalley.afceachapters.org/future-next-generation-autonomous-systems-0 To quote the 1989 film Field of Dreams, If you build it, they will come. But when it comes to autonomous systems, unless you build it on open standards, the result may never be deployed and be impossible to scale and manage and integrate the latest sensing and intelligence technologies.We are on the cusp of an explosion for new autonomous systems that will host fleets of land, sea, air, and space vehicles. How will these systems safely and securely emerge, grow and scale to the opportunity and promise of this new world?Open industry standards will form the foundation of this phenomenon and will enable these systems to evolve and grow as technology continues to expand their capability. Today, some key issues are:What are the advantages of building your system utilizing open system architecture standards?Are there advantages to using MOSA products in your solution stack?How can you accelerate safety certification using DO-178C avionics and ISO 26262 automotive standards?
