KSHI Seminar: Atinary Technologies - AI-driven R&D and discovery: How AI and Robotics are Shaping the Future of R&D with Self-Driving Labs

Abstract

The founders of Atinary Technologies, Dr. Hermann Tribukait and Dr. Loïc Roch will share their vision on their Self-driving Labs technology that is accelerating optimization and discovery of breakthrough molecules and materials. In this talk, they will present Atinary’s AI platform and technology solutions – SDLabs – and will describe how Atinary’s users can accelerate and improve R&D significantly with an AI and data-driven approach. Lab scientists and operators can connect to SDLabs in the cloud, they can seamlessly integrate lab equipment and off-the-shelf robotic platforms into the workflow, and use the SDLabs platform after a few hours of onboarding. Thus, companies can deploy AI and machine learning solutions today, with no coding or ML expertise needed, starting with simulations or directly in their existing workflows in their wet labs, with or without robots.

About Atinary Technologies (websiteLinkedin):

Atinary's vision is to accelerate the transition to a healthier and sustainable future by developing AI solutions that revolutionize science and R&D. The mission is to democratize the access to AI/ML with Atinary’s Self-driving Labs® Platform and accelerate science and discovery to address global challenges. Atinary’s AI solutions allow users to solve complex optimization and discovery challenges that are intractable with the current methods, they can solve multi-objective and multi-parameter optimizations, including with categorical variables and physicochemical descriptors. Atinary also offers new algorithms to solve various constrained optimizations, as well as transfer learning algorithms to leverage valuable pre-existing datasets. Overall, Atinary’s AI platform solutions act as time machines, integrating AI, robotics, and digital technologies to exponentially accelerate R&D processes.
