AI/machine learning
This research focuses on combining physics-based expert rules with machine learning to improve the detection of failure-related events in electrical submersible pumps.
A combination of physics principles and machine-learning techniques is used in this work to develop a virtual flowmeter for oil-production optimization in electrical-submersible-pump-lifted oil wells, resulting in reliable generalization.
This paper presents the deployment of an artificial intelligence-enabled autonomous gas lift optimization system, integrating real-time centralized advanced process control with cloud-based analytics to enhance artificial gas lift performance in producer wells.

Maybe we don’t need to look inside the black box after all. Maybe we just need to watch how machines behave, instead.

Machine learning (ML) finds patterns in data. "AI bias" means that it might find the wrong patterns. Meanwhile, the mechanics of ML might make this hard to spot.

Rapid advances in deep learning continue to demonstrate the significance of end-to-end training with no a priori knowledge. However, when models need to do forward prediction, most AI researchers agree that incorporating prior knowledge with end-to-end training can introduce better inductive bias.

AGI stands for artificial general intelligence, a hypothetical computer program that can perform intellectual tasks as well as, or better than, a human. AGI will make today’s most advanced AIs look like pocket calculators.
