Panel Discussion

Next generation artificial intelligence: Agent-based simulation + reinforcement learning

The ability to create a mental model of our environment, project forward in time, and take appropriate action is a key element of human intelligence. Combining agent-based simulation with reinforcement learning will lead to a new era of continuously learning agents that accomplish this functionality. Is this the next generation of AI - beyond deep learning?

Join our expert panel of practitioners from simulation and AI as they debate the role of agent-based simulation and reinforcement learning in the broader quest for Artificial Intelligence and conclude with a Q&A.

Workshops

New Features of AnyLogic 8.4 and AnyLogic Cloud: Building a Custom UI for a Cloud Based Model

Dr. Andrei Borshchev, CEO & Nikolay Churkov, Head of Software Development at The AnyLogic Company

Andrei Borshchev

We will walk you through the latest releases of AnyLogic and AnyLogic Cloud. New features in the Material Handling Library include AGVs moving in free space, cranes, lifts, and dynamically configured multi-level networks. You will see how to use the new file management features and how to setup files as inputs for simulations running in AnyLogic Cloud. We will show the latest AnyLogic Cloud API in action, building a custom HTML frontend for a model running in Private Cloud Lite. We will also demo, as a “bonus track”, how AnyLogic simulation models can be used as training environments for deep reinforcement learning.



Don't Forget Your User: Creating Amazing User Interface Design with Little Effort in AnyLogic

Benjamin Schumann, PhD, Simulation Consultant

Benjamin Schumann

This year, irresistible interfaces. Benjamin Schumann is becoming a key presenter at the AnyLogic Conference. After uncovering the hidden gems of AnyLogic in 2016, Benjamin continued to improve the AnyLogic user experience by exploring his list of best practices for model-building at the last conference.

Now, he is taking a deep dive into world-class user interface (UI) design with AnyLogic. How can your model be as intuitive and elegant as the best apps around? How can you create and reuse advanced UI objects yourself? Based on several real-world models, Ben will share the UI knowledge that makes his clients jaws drop and keep them wanting to use models again and again.

Timofey Popkov, Director of Business Development & Anatoly Zherebtsov, Head of anyLogistix development at The AnyLogic Company

Timofey Popkov

Digital twin buzz is all about in logistics these days. But what exactly is a supply chain digital twin? How can it help improve planning processes and enhance network visibility? Why integrate it with your IT environment? In our presentation, we will address these questions and more as we demo supply chain digital twin development with anyLogistix and how it can run in the AnyLogic Cloud.
