Andika Rachma
Ph.D. Candidate | Integrity Engineer | Machine Learning & Artificial Intelligence Enthusiast | API 580 Certified
I am currently active in practice and research about the application of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) on asset integrity and inspection management. I have published some journal and conference articles regarding the corresponding subject. Additionally, I have 4 years of experiences working in inspection-related activities in the oil and gas industry. I believe my academic background and practical experience can bring valuable input to this panel. I see AI and ML as the technologies that provide opportunities to make the inspection processes more effective and efficient. Manual inspection activities are prone to human biases, which brings variabilities into the inspection processes and results. The bringing automation into the inspection processes, these variabilities can be significantly reduced. Furthermore, the scalability of AI and ML can reduce the time to complete the inspection processes. In other words, the processes will be 'leaner' by cutting down the inspection lead time while improving the quality of the inspection results. The application of AI and ML can also beneficial for the inspection management process. For instance, I have done research on the application of Artificial Neural Network on the screening assessment of Risk-Based Inspection methodology.

Danny Yalcin
New Product Introduction, Engineering Design & Development, Innovation, Digital Manufacturing, Lean Process Improvement, Global Programme Management in Aerospace & Defense Manufacturing
I have been working in manufacturing industry (automotive, aerospace and defence) for 15 years. Since the day one, I was involved quality assurance and control in production lines. Quality was built in to our processes. In other words, as engineers we have to build in machine/in process inspection. Even if we didnt have the areas of using automated inspection we were using mistake proofing devices. Replacing human or eliminating human error (you need to know human factors- dirty dozen). I led teams to develop systems either we eliminated the human factor/operator or introduced smart inspection based on human behaviour on previous operations. As being Pioneer of Industry 4.0, the company i worked for two years was CBI (formerly known Bosch Chassis Systems). During this two years, i have implemented fully automated with RFID sensors quality inspection robotics system. We achieved 0 PPM (zero defective part per million parts). For last two years, i have been working on Machine Learning & AI's application in manufacturing which are predictive quality, predictive maintenance, smart scheduling, IIoT etc. In addition i am responsible project lead of building smart factory in our company. This project is funded by federal and provincial government as well as our corporate. I have fully understanding of requirements to apply AI and ML in manufacturing especially product quality and inspection . I believe i will provide beneficial input and knowledge gained over the years into this panel. I also would like to learn from other board members for their perspective and approach on the topic.

FAQ
  • add remove What is Currnt?
    Currnt is a “Knowledge Networking” platform where companies and professionals come to stay relevant on the latest advances in their industries in the face of the increasing pace of change. Companies sponsor panels to learn about where markets are headed or how to leverage new capabilities. Professionals join to demonstrate and develop their passions with equal caliber peers in expert-only facilitated online engagements. On Currnt, we take our passions seriously and ourselves lightly. See our Community Guidelines, to learn more of the rules of the road, here are some highlights

    • Be yourself. The authenticity of Currnt begins with the passion of people.
    • Be respectful. This applies to every person, at all times.
    • Be inclusive. Tolerate, welcome, and consider diverse people and perspectives.
    • Build empathy and understanding. Engage in debates that are in good faith.
    • Foster meaningful and genuine connections. This is what Currnt is all about.
    • Do not plagiarize or fail to cite other’s ideas.
    • Don’t game the points by trying to coordinate intentional recognition.
  • add remove How do Panels work?
    The panel is like a facilitated forum of hand selected experts on a topic sponsored by a company that wants to learn fast. Panels are organized in chapters called Themes that focus on one subtopic at a time. In some panels Themes are only 24 hours in duration, in others they are a week long, and in some they are two weeks long. When one Theme closes, a new one begins. You come in when you feel like it, but try to come in twice per Theme. You earn points from your peers and the facilitator when they react to your ideas. Likewise, others earn points when you interact on their posts. The more we discuss and debate, the better the insights, the more points earned by all.

  • add remove Why should I apply? Do I get paid?
    Professionals join Currnt because they want to remain relevant on subjects they’re passionate about and subjects that are shaping the future of their industry. They also:

    • Engage and connect with equal caliber peers in their industry
    • Learn and enhance their knowledge
    • Get recognized and rewarded for providing their inputs and thought-leadership
    • When specified above in the project description, you can earn honorarium payments and/or recognition points redeemable for cash. Learn more here.
  • add remove Are there specific times I need to participate?
    There are no set times for calls or meetings. Participation is 100% online on the Currnt platform and engagement between the all expert panelists is asynchronous in written form. Just come in twice per Theme, at your convenience.

  • add remove How do KnowledgeStreams and DesignSprints work?
    Streams are ongoing online engagements for exploration or working iteratively with a panel, and Sprints are on-demand engagement to get to actionable insights quickly. Both are facilitated and are always-on for participants to engage at-convenience. The conversations are segmented into Themes which are subtopics which are like chapters in a book. In a 4 Day Sprint, Themes are 24 hours, whereas a Theme in a Stream is every two week. Throughout the discussion, the facilitator highlights and categorizes the “key takeaways” to be voted and distilled into a summary report. It’s also common that other pieces of content (whitepapers, blogs, podcasts) are also prepared from the distilled insights.

  • add remove I’ve applied. Now what?
    Your application will be internally reviewed in the following 24-48hrs and screened for any conflict of interest, and general fit. Next your application will be shortlisted for the sponsor to accept, bookmark or reject. You will receive a notification each step of the way, but expect this may take a couple of days, or even weeks if the panel is new. Nevertheless, in addition to the notifications, you can always go back to the Apply page to view the status of your application.

  • add remove I’ve been selected. What am I expected to do when selected?
    Once you receive your Welcome Email, please RSVP by clicking the link in the notification. You can also gain access to the panel through your ‘My Currnt’ at the top of the page. Finally, once you have RSVP’d by logging into the panel, there is often a Welcome Tab where you can introduce yourself to the other panelists. If it’s a new panel, the first Theme will launch in a few days, if it’s an ongoing panel just jump right in by reacting to the question or to what the other panelists had to say.

  • add remove If I have other questions or issues, what should I do?
    Please contact support to answer any other questions or troubleshoot any issues via email or chat.
