Assessing the Impact of the Combined Technologies of AI and Blockchain on Networking, Distributed Processing and IOT Platforms

 

Prof. Dr. Dong Hwa Kim

TDTU, President of HuCARE

worldhucare@gmail.com; worldhumancare@gmail.com

 

As an emerging technology, blockchain is growing into distributed system, fin-tech, security, smart contracts, and networking. Officially, some governments are hesitating to adopt formal currency but Switzerland, Japan, and other countries are permitting the official exchange of money in limited areas.

Moreover, many universities are permitting students to pay tuition fee as blockchain and the Swiss city of Zug has conducted a blockchain-powered trial municipal vote between June 25 and July 1, 2018, where it forms the biggest technology area with many global companies having established blockchain centres there. It is clear that blochchains technology is becoming seriously useful in security, distributed work, etc.

On the other hand, almost all global companies and research centres are assessing projects that combine AI with existing microelectronics technologies, leading to a growth surge in research examining the 2nd Internet in terms fast combined development in AI and blochchain.

This presentation will explore how blochchain technology can be useful in innovative applications and how the results will influence social factors, platform architectures, distributed system (decentralized) when AI is combined with blockchain.

The presentation is hoped to provide motivation for young researchers and students to explore novel research directions or advance their extending knowledge.

Enabling Microfluidic Technologies to Isolate Dendritic Cells for Cancer Immunotherapy

 

 

Prof Nor Hisham B Hamid

 

Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS

Kuala Lumpur

Malaysia

Email: hishmid@utp.edu.my

 

Dendritic cell enrichment from whole blood samples is a state-of-art preparation for dendritic cell vaccination, promising improved efficacy and minimal toxicity in recent clinical studies. This work promotes the concept of dendritic cell extraction at the point of care in order to eliminate the logistics of cold chain preservation for transport to the lab. The laboratory processing may be miniaturized into microfluidic operations, using inertial microfluidics technology. A simple to use microfluidic device, was fabricated in low-resource settings to enrich human dendritic cells from blood with high throughput operation and without the use of cell labels or reagents. The device was fabricated to demonstrate successful collection of upto three particle streams of 7μm, 10μm and 15μm fluorescent beads which has been focused with a separation distance of only ~20μm with a collection efficiency exceeding 90% for each particle at the respective collection outlet. Further experimentation results dendritic cell isolation with a high recovery rate of ~90% at throughput up to 1.9 ml/min. More than 86% of dendritic cells remain viable, which is extremely important when DCs and other blood cells are injected back into the patients body after performing downstream analysis. Isolation of DCs from the blood cell mixture using microfluidic technology was demonstrated for the first time and has shown the pathways to apply in novel cancer treatment and research with high enrichment ratio of DCs at low cost and reduced analysis time.

The Rise of Machine Learning as a Service in the Public Cloud

 

Prof Yong Meng Teo

 

Department of Computer Science

National University of Singapore

email: teoym@comp.nus.edu.sg

url: www.comp.nus.edu.sg/~teoym

 

Despite the highs and lows in artificial intelligence over the years, there has been increasing interest in applying machine learning algorithms to new problems. Two important developments led to the rise of machine learning (ML). One is the realization that rather than teaching computers how to do everything, ML algorithms can be given access to data and let them learn for themselves. Secondly, the emergence of the internet and the huge increase in the amount of digital data being captured provides the much-needed data for building robust ML applications.

 

This talk discusses our experience in using Machine Learning-as-a-Service (MLaaS) and is divided into two main parts. Firstly, we review the plethora of MLaaS for developing ML applications. Using various examples, we demonstrate the ease and issues in developing MLaaS applications. Next, we discuss the pitfalls in using MLaaS classifiers from different cloud service providers to detect pathology in medical images and present an approach to improve pathology detection accuracy by combining the results from different MLaaS classifiers.
