Using AI for Pattern Recognition

What are you doing with artificial intelligence to help with pattern recognition?

In product development, we are trying to use technology as one of the enablers for building knowledge-based engineering where we are able to build, continuously build on and propagate the collective memory of the organization, and build the knowledge of the organization through common processes, efficient and well-designed information systems. Some nice rules-based AI systems then help users synthesize all of that data and learn from it. And the knowledge-based engineering work is a good one to drill down further into that area.

Another example, one of the challenges that almost any large business has today, is integrating several different disparate forms of data and then capturing intelligence from that data. So today we're looking at various feeds of data coming out of quality systems, warranty systems, call center data, dealer input, etc., bringing it in and mining it for red flags around quality, around safety. We can use technology to solve a quality problem.

We've seen some results already. You've got a whole value chain of processes enabled by IT tools and data that enable, for example, design for Six Sigma where you're designing quality into the vehicle.
