The Influence of Neural Networks on Hydropower Plant Management in Agriculture: Addressing Challenges and Exploring Untapped Opportunities

Coelho, C., Costa, M. Fernanda P., Ferrás, L. L.

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Hydropower plants are crucial for stable renewable energy and serve as vital water sources for sustainable agriculture. However, it is essential to assess the current water management practices associated with hydropower plant management software. A key concern is the potential conflict between electricity generation and agricultural water needs. Prioritising water for electricity generation can reduce irrigation availability in agriculture during crucial periods like droughts, impacting crop yields and regional food security. Coordination between electricity and agricultural water allocation is necessary to ensure optimal and environmentally sound practices. Neural networks have become valuable tools for hydropower plant management, but their black-box nature raises concerns about transparency in decision making. Additionally, current approaches often do not take advantage of their potential to create a system that effectively balances water allocation. This work is a call for attention and highlights the potential risks of deploying neural network-based hydropower plant management software without proper scrutiny and control. To address these concerns, we propose the adoption of the Agriculture Conscious Hydropower Plant Management framework, aiming to maximise electricity production while prioritising stable irrigation for agriculture. We also advocate reevaluating government-imposed minimum water guidelines for irrigation to ensure flexibility and effective water allocation. Additionally, we suggest a set of regulatory measures to promote model transparency and robustness, certifying software that makes conscious and intelligent water allocation decisions, ultimately safeguarding agriculture from undue strain during droughts.


8 Ways IoT Is Transforming Warehouse Management

#artificialintelligence

The increase in IoT adoption and Smart technology is revolutionizing logistics and warehouse management. "The United States Smart Warehousing Market size was estimated at USD 3,481.58 million in 2020 and expected to reach USD 9,400.10 million by 2027, at a CAGR of 15.24%" – Research & Markets report. With ever-increasing consumer demand, the load on logistics and transportation has only increased and given rise to many innovations in the logistics industry. Logistics companies are striving to increase efficiency and provide better transparency. This has led to some serious innovation and investment in the IoT space. With IoT becoming ever-popular, forecasters predict that by 2025, the IoT industry will hit between $1 trillion and $3 trillion in revenue.


How Can Schools Reduce Costs? 7 Simple Ways

#artificialintelligence

Luckily, there are several ways to manage school finances effectively. Educational institutions can adopt methods that are most suited to their requirements. Aspects like demographics, geographical location, etc., play a role in determining which of the below ways are more rewarding and useful to schools and colleges. It might seem counter-intuitive initially as you have to invest in new technology. However, choosing the right software and tools will reduce the need for working capital and minimize the use of resources over time.


Upgrading cell towers could save enough energy to power entire cities

#artificialintelligence

Upgrading to more efficient cellular radio towers could save enough electricity to power cities such as Phoenix, New Orleans or Seattle, according to a new study produced by US research firm J. Gold Associates. Annually, US cell sites use a total of almost 21 million megawatt hours (MWh) of power. That's the equivalent of the average power used by almost two million households. "Cellular services have become a critical infrastructure component of modern life. It's hard to imagine not being able to communicate on the go with our mobile devices, or increasingly through a wireless home gateway enabling Internet services to both residential and business customers," the report said.


What is Database Management System (DBMS)?

#artificialintelligence

A Database Management System (DBMS) is a computer software application that enables users to create, manage, and query databases. In addition, it can be used to store data for various purposes, such as tracking customer information or managing inventory. Many different DBMS applications are available today, each with its unique features and capabilities. Therefore, when deciding which database is suitable for your needs, it's essential to understand what these systems do. This blog post will provide an overview of DBMS and highlight some of the key features to look for when choosing one.

Nanonets lands $10 million to expedite document processing with AI

#artificialintelligence

Organizations are devoting more resources to deploying intelligent document processing, particularly as they embark on digital transformations. As Deloitte explains, intelligent document processing automates the processing of data contained in documents -- understanding what the document is about, what information it contains, extracting that information, and sending it to the right place. According to Everest Group, the global market for intelligent document processing was worth between $700 million and $750 million in 2020. Leveraging a blend of AI, including computer vision and natural language processing, intelligent document processing can help to automate tasks like invoice processing, insurance claims, patient records, proof of delivery, and order forms. A range of startups offer these types of services, including Mindee, Zuva, Rossum, PandaDoc, and Anvil.


Top Emerging Technologies in 2021

#artificialintelligence

New technologies continue to emerge at an unprecedented rate, fueled, in part, by the global pandemic. But adoption often lags behind invention. CompTIA's Emerging Technology Community recognizes the gap between the promise and profit of emerging technologies and has shifted the focus its of annual list of emerging technologies to uncover the top use cases for artificial intelligence (AI) and internet of things (IoT). These two technologies have topped the list three years in a row, and with good reason--use cases that highlight the power of AI and IoT solutions are plentiful, helping companies create efficiencies, save time, and increase revenue (to name a few benefits). The 2021 Emerging Technology Top 10 list takes a deeper dive into AI and IoT, illustrating how they're transforming business.
