    Multidisciplinary perspectives on Artificial Intelligence and the law

    Get PDF
    This open access book presents an interdisciplinary, multi-authored, edited collection of chapters on Artificial Intelligence (‘AI’) and the Law. AI technology has come to play a central role in the modern data economy. Through a combination of increased computing power, the growing availability of data and the advancement of algorithms, AI has now become an umbrella term for some of the most transformational technological breakthroughs of this age. The importance of AI stems from both the opportunities that it offers and the challenges that it entails. While AI applications hold the promise of economic growth and efficiency gains, they also create significant risks and uncertainty. The potential and perils of AI have thus come to dominate modern discussions of technology and ethics – and although AI was initially allowed to largely develop without guidelines or rules, few would deny that the law is set to play a fundamental role in shaping the future of AI. As the debate over AI is far from over, the need for rigorous analysis has never been greater. This book thus brings together contributors from different fields and backgrounds to explore how the law might provide answers to some of the most pressing questions raised by AI. An outcome of the Católica Research Centre for the Future of Law and its interdisciplinary working group on Law and Artificial Intelligence, it includes contributions by leading scholars in the fields of technology, ethics and the law.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

    Digitalization and Development

    Get PDF
    This book examines the diffusion of digitalization and Industry 4.0 technologies in Malaysia by focusing on the ecosystem critical for its expansion. The chapters examine the digital proliferation in major sectors of agriculture, manufacturing, e-commerce and services, as well as the intermediary organizations essential for the orderly performance of socioeconomic agents. The book incisively reviews policy instruments critical for the effective and orderly development of the embedding organizations, and the regulatory framework needed to quicken the appropriation of socioeconomic synergies from digitalization and Industry 4.0 technologies. It highlights the importance of collaboration between government, academic and industry partners, as well as makes key recommendations on how to encourage adoption of IR4.0 technologies in the short- and long-term. This book bridges the concepts and applications of digitalization and Industry 4.0 and will be a must-read for policy makers seeking to quicken the adoption of its technologies

    Automated Distinct Bone Segmentation from Computed Tomography Images using Deep Learning

    Get PDF
    Large-scale CT scans are frequently performed for forensic and diagnostic purposes, to plan and direct surgical procedures, and to track the development of bone-related diseases. This often involves radiologists who have to annotate bones manually or in a semi-automatic way, which is a time consuming task. Their annotation workload can be reduced by automated segmentation and detection of individual bones. This automation of distinct bone segmentation not only has the potential to accelerate current workflows but also opens up new possibilities for processing and presenting medical data for planning, navigation, and education. In this thesis, we explored the use of deep learning for automating the segmentation of all individual bones within an upper-body CT scan. To do so, we had to find a network architec- ture that provides a good trade-off between the problem’s high computational demands and the results’ accuracy. After finding a baseline method and having enlarged the dataset, we set out to eliminate the most prevalent types of error. To do so, we introduced an novel method called binary-prediction-enhanced multi-class (BEM) inference, separating the task into two: Distin- guishing bone from non-bone is conducted separately from identifying the individual bones. Both predictions are then merged, which leads to superior results. Another type of error is tack- led by our developed architecture, the Sneaky-Net, which receives additional inputs with larger fields of view but at a smaller resolution. We can thus sneak more extensive areas of the input into the network while keeping the growth of additional pixels in check. Overall, we present a deep-learning-based method that reliably segments most of the over one hundred distinct bones present in upper-body CT scans in an end-to-end trained matter quickly enough to be used in interactive software. Our algorithm has been included in our groups virtual reality medical image visualisation software SpectoVR with the plan to be used as one of the puzzle piece in surgical planning and navigation, as well as in the education of future doctors
