Machine learning and artificial intelligence are very flexible and powerful methods for modelling and prediction, but they rarely provide any human understandable explanation or justification for their predictions. Explainable AI Machine learning and artificial intelligence are very flexible and powerful methods...
Cyber physical systems where physical processes and devices are coordinated create new possibilities to create adaptive and scalable distributed solutions within many areas, for example solar parks and power grids. Collection of data and control of distributed systems require ever more devices to be...
...gasoline and coal is the main source of heat and power worldwide, both in industry and in our private lives. Combustion is also the main source of pollutant emissions to the atmosphere, such as NOx, SOx, CO, CO2, soot and particulates. SINTEF performs fundamental research with advanced experimental and numerical...
...while the wise learn from others' mistakes. The purpose of investigating accidents and near misses is not to find scapegoats, but to prevent similar accidents or incidents from reocurring. In recent years, both the private and public sectors have become increasingly aware of the need to identify the underlying...
A safe and secure society is capable of maintaining its vital functions also when put under stress. It is a society where critical societal functions are rarely put out of play, and where accidents, natural hazards and malicious intended acts do not lead to grave consequences for life, health, environment...
