Manufacturing hasn't earned as many artificial intelligence headlines as other vertical markets, but experts believe AI in manufacturing is making healthy inroads. "Cognitive capabilities include natural language processing, object detection, face detection, sentiment analysis, logo detection and translation, all of which can be applied to an industry, regardless of their vertical, from media and entertainment to legal e-discovery and compliance to manufacturing," noted Tyler Schulze, vice president of strategy and development of cognitive engines at Veritone Inc., a provider of AI insights and cognitive technology based in Costa Mesa, Calif.
