Abstract: AI-Powered Video Analytics for Building Smarter Physical Spaces
This tutorial delves into the cutting-edge realm of Edge AI and its profound influence on diverse industries. With the ever-growing presence of cameras and sensors in our daily routines, Edge AI is fundamentally altering how we handle and engage with physical resources. From retail establishments to factory premises, educational campuses, medical facilities, and major road networks, Edge AI is empowering cities and businesses to optimize efficiency, enhance safety, and elevate the overall customer experience. We will examine the advantages of integrating AI directly into edge infrastructure, as well as the obstacles that hinder the widespread adoption of AIoT technologies. Moreover, we will showcase a range of methods for deploying and expediting AI at the edge, assess their performance, and quantify the cost-related factors that influence the development of edge AI strategies.
