Tulevaisuus tehdään Vertexillä

In his blog post, Juho introduces the topic for his Master’s thesis. It consists of a proof-of-concept physically-based lighting system, which could serve as the basis for the next generation of Vertex graphics.

In his blog Matias tells how he modernized component library architecture. Besides renew process the new architecture was reviewed by using DCAR method.

In this blog post, Joonas goes over how his master’s thesis on assembly constraint classification was created for Vertex Systems. As a part of the thesis a classifier system was developed within the Vertex G4 CAD software. The work demonstrates how modern machine learning techniques, such as deep learning and the convolutional neural network architecture, can concretely be used to enhance productivity in CAD.

Juhana tells in his blog post how he came up with the idea of a machine learning based text document classifier and how it was implemented as a part of his master’s thesis. The application implemented utilizes tools from natural language processing (NLP) in order to label documents with matching keywords. This reduces the need for manual work and makes it possible to perform content based document search.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) could help combine prior knowledge with novel product ideas intelligently to exploit their relationships fully. In the long term, AI agents will provide recommendations to enhance the CAD engineer’s cognitive ability to automatically generate an array of design alternatives. An example of productivity enhancement by AI has been recently developed within Vertex G4 mechanical design engineering software.

I had plenty of time during this this spring thanks to Covid-19 to build a Vertex Cloud proof-of-concept. The goal was to find the best suitable Cloud Architecture and developer tools for our purposes. I’ve personally followed the Spring Framework evolving over the last 5 -10 years in my own hobbyist projects. With that in mind and the fact Vertex developers have built their Java expertise over the past 20 years, the obvious first choice was to test the Spring Framework the #1 Java Framework.
