Artificial intelligence for instruments and measurement applications

The use of artificial intelligence techniques introduces a new set of problems related to the characterization of the new instrumentation and measurement procedures, incorporating some components based on these instrumentation-processing technologies. Research is needed to define and evaluate suitable methodologies and techniques in order to identify and specify the accuracy, the precision, and the confidence of the measurements performed by using these advanced instrumentation and measurement procedures, in particular with respect to the algorithmic choices embedded in the related software and the computing system itself. For the near future, these are the challenges of the research communities in the areas of instrumentation and measurement as well as in computer science and engineering.
