Artificial Intelligence Enabled Material Behavior Prediction

Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning algorithms have considerable potential to influence the prediction of material properties. Additive materials have a unique property prediction challenge in the form of surface roughness effects on fatigue behavior of structural components. Traditional approaches using finite element methods to calculate stress risers associated with additively built surfaces have been challenging due to the computational resources required, often taking over a day to calculate a single sample prediction. To address this performance challenge, Deep Learning has been employed to enable low cycle fatigue life prediction in additive materials in a matter of seconds.

SemTK: An Ontology-first, Open Source Semantic Toolkit for Managing and Querying Knowledge Graphs

The relatively recent adoption of Knowledge Graphs as an enabling technology in multiple high-profile artificial intelligence and cognitive applications has led to growing interest in the Semantic Web technology stack. Many semantics-related tools, however, are focused on serving experts with a deep understanding of semantic technologies. For example, triplification of relational data is available but there is no open source tool that allows a user unfamiliar with OWL/RDF to import data into a semantic triple store in an intuitive manner. Further, many tools require users to have a working understanding of SPARQL to query data. Casual users interested in benefiting from the power of Knowledge Graphs have few tools available for exploring, querying, and managing semantic data. We present SemTK, the Semantics Toolkit, a user-friendly suite of tools that allow both expert and non-expert semantics users convenient ingestion of relational data, simplified query generation, and more. The exploration of ontologies and instance data is performed through SPARQLgraph, an intuitive web-based user interface in SemTK understandable and navigable by a lay user. The open source version of SemTK is available at http://semtk.research.ge.com
