Patent attributes
A method includes determining an artificial intelligence function in an engineering framework system. An inference path is defined for generation of an AI model by a computation graph. An AI function and the inference path are converted into a processing format. The converted AI function is sent and exported to an extraction and extension module of an AI workbench module. The extended computation graph of the inference path is transmitted from the extraction and extension module to an AI framework module. The method includes communicating of a communication adapter with the processing module continuously by using a supporting communication protocol for receiving training data as input for the AI function and forwarding the training data to the AI framework module. Learned parameters of the AI model are transferred from an API interface of the AI framework module to the communication adapter for updating the AI model.
