The AI technology in this project uses machine learning, genetic algorithms and a rule-based inference engine. The project focused on three applications:
Regional context
The project took place in Eindhoven, strengthened technological knowledge in the region and aligned with the Dutch Knowledge and Innovation Agenda (KIA) for Key Technologies 2020-2023. It contributes to the development of digital and manufacturing technologies.
Collaboration
MasterShip Software brings knowledge of shipbuilding and CAD software; Twentynext brings AI and algorithmic design. Together that produced a solution for shipbuilding, with application beyond that sector as a next step.
Related: CAD/CAM automation.
Result
In a practical case, MasterShip cut total engineering and replacement time by 40 per cent using AI and knowledge-based engineering. Building on this research, MasterShip is developing an intelligent AutoCAD assistant with ACQUAINT that combines shipbuilding knowledge, design rules and AI; in a proof of concept it carried out design work more accurately and efficiently, with less human intervention.
