Title

Signal; Applications of Technology in Shipping and Commodities Trading

Abstract

Shipping could be considered a "Technology Last Frontier", meaning a huge business domain that has yet to take full advantage of the emerging capabilities of deep technologies. In this short introductory talk, we will introduce Shipping, some of its problems and illustrate how technology can help solve some of them by placing humans "in the loop of AI".
