iHelp Project – 11th General Assembly Meeting – Athens – January 2024

This was an important forum for the iHelp project partners to align on project activities and discuss the wrapping up of work in the remaining few months on the project.

Our Research Associate Nadia presented our main achievements and work planned. 

The DS4 team has been working with the project pilots and developers to ensure that the iHelp software solutions are usable and impactful.

We combined this event with conducting an observation meeting with the clinical team from the Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli IRCCS pilot and gathered their opinion and comments about the clinicians-facing user interfaces.  Thank you Stefania and Patricia for your time and valuable feedback 😊

RoBétArmé Project – Workshop with End-Users – December 2023

This workshop was a joint collaboration between the DS4, MORE and UNI teams held in Copenhagen.

We demonstrated some prototypes of the software systems and robotic platforms and then conducted a fruitful discussion with the end-users from CEAS and ARUP and gathered their feedback on what has already been proposed and developed in the first 18 months of the RoBétArmé project.  There was also a productive discussion about the learning materials and training courses that will be developed for the employees in construction and robotic industries.

Thank you CEAS for your wonderful hospitality yet again  and Merry Christmas to you all!

iHelp System Launch – Plovdiv – 24 November 2023

Teams from the Bulgarian companies Kodar, DS4 and from the Medical University Plovdiv (MUP) organised an event at MUP to roll out the prototype developed on the EU-funded project iHelp to the Plovdiv pilot.  They provided a demo of the iHelp system to a number of medical specialists.  The project uses advanced AI and decision support techniques to analyse health-related data of individuals in order to provide early identification and mitigation of the risks associated with Pancreatic Cancer.  Presenting the project ideas to the medical specialists from MUP  was a very important step to gather feedback from them and to thus ensure the success of iHelp.

The demo was followed by a lengthy and fruitful discussion which confirmed the growing interest in the system and its exciting potential.

Like most events these days, this was a hybrid event; a number of busy professionals joined the event online; the important thing was that everyone’s comments and recommendations were heard and noted.

MUP is now ready to start with recruiting patients for the pilot who will be monitored. The iHelp technical teams are at hand to provide support every step of the way.

Thank you guys for working so hard for this event, and especially Rosti, Yancho, Pencho, Diana, Ainhoa, Pavlos, Rafa, Aristodemos, Giorgos and George!

AI in Action – Manchester – November 2023

Our Project Manager Petia Nikolova had the opportunity to attend this hugely popular event, as the photo below demonstrates; the second photo shows Petia receiving some financial advice during her Human-Machine conversation.  This was just one of the many examples that the participants experienced on the evening. Thank you Slalom for organising this wonderful event and the inspiring speeches. There is quite rightly a lot of worries over the risks from AI, however you pointed out and showcased the enormous advantages and potential for AI to help individuals, businesses and our societies.

Digisys4.0 is proud to work currently on the following 3 European-funded projects that involve AI and analytics:

  •  iHelp – the project uses advance AI techniques  to develop predictive models in identifying the risks associated with Pancreatic Cancer and to develop adaptive models for targeted prevention and intervention measures. 
  • RoBétArmé  – the project uses AI-based methods and techniques to deliver a human-robot collaborative construction system for the automation of shotcrete and assist humans working in dangerous working conditions.
  • MobiSpaces – the project uses AI technology to process and analyse vast quantities of data to predict trajectories of ships, predict malfunctions of electric vehicles and identify measures to reduce noise and improve air pollution from traffic.

We look forward to seeing you there 🙂

ICAMCS 2023 iHelp Special Session

The iHelp project has been assigned a special session during this year’s ICAMCS conference; the title is: “AIPER: AI and Big Data Applications towards Person-centered eHealth, Personalized Recommendations and Improved QoL”.

The event will provide an excellent opportunity to explore the latest advancements in AI and Big Data applications for healthcare, including integrated health records, personalized recommendations, clinical decision support systems, health data spaces, and much more.

Among the experts and professionals in the field of eHealth who will discuss and present their research results will be the distinguished speakers who will share their expertise in AI-based personalized healthcare applications from both technical and medical perspectives:

Further details about the session including how to participate alongside our project partners can be found on the iHelp project website – link

iHelp Project – 9th General Assembly Meeting – June 2023

It was a pleasure for the DS4 team to take part in the recent 9th General Assembly meeting.  The day spent at the hospital in Dénia in addition to the meetings in València provided a valuable experience at the Spanish pilot site. 

The event marked an important milestone to the project with live demonstrations by the technical partners that facilitated pilot partners scenarios.

Thank you Salva, Oscar and your teams for this memorable visit 😊

RoBétArmé Project – Third General Assembly Meeting – Valencia – May 2023

The technical partners from Robotnik hosted the above meeting at their company premises in Valencia and provided us with the exciting opportunity to see their robotics products.

The discussions with the project partners were a further step towards achieving the project goals of digitalisation and automation of the shotcrete application.

The DS4 team presented our plans for involving users in the development of the software systems and robotic platforms.

Robotnik, we thoroughly enjoyed our visit, thank you for having us 😊
