Locus Robotics said its autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) have now surpassed one billion picks. The company's billionth pick was made at a home improvement retailer warehouse in Florida, where a LocusBot picked a cordless rotary tool kit. Just milliseconds after the billionth pick, another LocusBot picked a scented candle from a home goods warehouse in Ohio, and a running jacket from a global fitness and shoe brand in Pennsylvania. The company completed its billionth pick just 59 days after hitting its 900 millionth unit picked. For comparison, it took Locus 1,542 days to pick its first 100 million units.

The 36 full papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 50 submissions. The papers cover topics from foundations of AGI, to AGI approaches and AGI ethics, to the roles of systems biology, goal generation, and learning systems, and so much more.

This book presents recent work on healthcare management and engineering using artificial intelligence and data mining techniques. Specific topics covered in the contributed chapters include predictive mining, decision support, capacity management, patient flow optimization, image compression, data clustering, and feature selection.

Part I presents two chapters on the emerging ROS 2.0 framework; in particular, ROS 2.0 is become increasingly mature to be integrated into the industry. The first chapter from Amazon AWS deals with the challenges that ROS 2 developers will face as they transition their system to be commercial-grade. In Part II, two chapters deal with advanced robotics, namely on the usage of robots in farms, and the second deals with platooning systems. Part III provides three chapters on ROS navigation. The second chapter presents a detailed tuning guide on ROS navigation and the last chapter discusses SLAM for ROS applications.

The world is driven by connections--from financial and communication systems to social and biological processes. As connectedness continues to accelerate, it's not surprising that interest in graph algorithms has exploded because they are based on mathematics explicitly developed to gain insights from the relationships between data. Graph analytics can uncover the workings of intricate systems and networks at massive scales--for any organization. We are passionate about the utility and importance of graph analytics as well as the joy of uncovering the inner workings of complex scenarios. Until recently, adopting graph analytics required significant expertise and determination, because tools and integrations were difficult and few knew how to apply graph algorithms to their quandaries.

At Vision Analytics, we are a company specialized in the development of computer vision solutions. Our neural networks allow (among other things) to generate value and information from an image, allowing smart decision-making based on data and real analytics. One of the problems facing artificial intelligence these days, and in particular the area of computer vision, is the lack of data. Surprising as it may seem, we generate more than 50 thousand photos per second (phototutorial), but we only have access to a few of these photos and from these, only some of them are valid for the task we are facing on. The problem of the lack of data is so heavy that companies like Vision Analytics (visionanalytics.ai) This is where our partner Veris Behavior (verisbehavior.com)
