ADVANCED AI FOR EARTH OBSERVATION IN THE FORTHCOMING MASSIVE DATA ERA

ABSTRACT

The number of Earth observation satellites is rapidly increasing. Their observation data will become dramatically dense in time and space, enriching data of polarimetric, interferometric, and polarimetric0interferometric synthetic aperture radars. This will also drive advances in the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in data collection and initial processing. In this keynote speech, we will take up quaternion reservoir computing, outline its features and effectiveness, and look ahead to future developments in Earth observation in the massive data era.

ABSTRACT

BIOGRAPHY

Dr. Konrad Young obtained his doctoral degree in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from the University of California, Berkeley. When in the United States, he served as a researcher at the Lincoln Laboratory of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and as a senior technologist at HP. After leaving the United States, he successively worked at Chartered Semiconductor, Winbond Electronics, and Worldwide Semiconductor. From 1998 to 2005, he served as the R&D Director at TSMC, responsible for developing advanced processes at 0.18-micron, 0.13-micron, and 65-nanometer. In 2005, he went to the United States to oversee TSMC’s research and development program and advanced technology customer collaboration projects. In 2012, he transferred to TSMC’s Basic Engineering Department and the Office of Advanced Technology Management.

In 2001, TSMC began mass production of the 0.13-micron process, laying the foundation for TSMC’s later significant lead over its competitors. Several key figures involved in the development efforts were later hailed as the “Six Knights of TSMC’s R&D,” with Dr. Young being one of them responsible for integrating the overall logic process.

After retiring from TSMC, Dr. Young served as an independent SMIC director and technical advisor to Intel. He is currently a CEO in the College of Industry-Academia Innovation at National Taiwan University of Science and Technology and is deeply passionate about talent development issues.

Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT), is the convergence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT), combining the data-collecting capabilities and connectivity of IoT devices with the analytical and decision-making powers of AI. By embedding lightweight machine-learning intelligence into connected sensors, actuators, and wearable devices, AIoT enables real-time analytics in smart homes and factories, predictive maintenance in energy and transportation, personalized healthcare and eldercare, environmental monitoring for climate-resilient agriculture, and adaptive infrastructure for future smart cities. These diverse use cases share a common technical challenge: stringent constraints on power, latency, reliability, security, and cost that can only be met through innovative circuit and system-level co-design.

This special session invites contributions that advance the state of the art in integrated-circuit (IC) and system architectures tailored to AIoT workloads. Topics include, but are not limited to low-power digital/analog/mixed-signal circuits for on-device learning and inference, reconfigurable and heterogeneous system-on-chip (SoC) combining CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, and TPU for edge intelligence, hardware-software (HW-SW) co-optimization for rapid IoT prototyping, and case studies demonstrating end-to-end AIoT systems.

Quantum information processing offers new opportunities for tasks like image recognition, classification, and complex pattern analysis by leveraging quantum algorithms such as Quantum Machine Learning (QML), Quantum Fourier Transform (QFT), and other emerging quantum techniques. These approaches promise faster and more efficient data processing for applications in signal processing, communications, and AI.

This special session invites contributions on developing and applying diverse quantum algorithms—including variational circuits, quantum search, and optimization methods—for tasks such as image and signal classification, feature extraction, and secure communications, as well as demonstrations of practical quantum-assisted systems.

As the digital era accelerates, the demand for more personalized, context-aware, and intelligent systems continues to grow. This special session (SS) explores the development and application of hyper-personalized artificial intelligence (AI) technologies that adapt to individual user preferences, behaviors, and real-time contexts.

By leveraging advanced machine learning algorithms, multimodal data processing, and edge computing, hyper-personalized AI enables more responsive and tailored experiences across domains such as education, healthcare, e-commerce, and smart living. We also present case studies and future directions, emphasizing how hyper-personalized AI can redefine user engagement and shape the digital future.
