Condition-Based and Predictive Maintenance

The management and upkeep of extensive equipment and hardware pose a significant challenge for numerous federal agencies, including the Department of Defense (DoD). Transitioning to condition-based predictive maintenance offers numerous benefits, such as optimized maintenance schedules, minimized downtime, cost savings, prolonged asset lifespan and data-driven insights. Noblis has developed its own time-series anomaly detection algorithms to deliver next-generation asset management capabilities.

Explainable AI Research

Fully exploiting AI utilization across federal agencies hinges on stakeholders’ trust in necessarily complex AI systems. Explainable AI (XAI) enhances user comprehension of decision-making processes, nurturing trust and confidence in system results and recommendations. Noblis is committed to an extensive independent research and development initiative, concentrating on XAI and leveraging cutting-edge techniques. Noblis’ Responsible AI Framework mandates XAI evaluation for every AI project, integrating XAI techniques directly into the development process.
