Artificial Intelligence (AI)
From industrial robots to machine learning algorithms, generative AI, and more, Kelly creates content about how AI is changing the world.
Here are some samples of Kelly’s AI work.
Speech processing for Naval training applications
“Speech recognition and generation are advanced in consumer electronics, such as virtual assistants. However, speech processing is still challenging in environments such as defense training programs with its specialized vocabulary and grammar.”

Deep Learning for Electronics Inspections
“Powerful robots will soon get artificial eyes and a brain. This next gen upgrade is what engineers at Northrop Grumman are developing through sophisticated deep learning algorithms. Adding to the automation process in the manufacturing setting, machine vision will be used to autonomously inspect and classify electronic components.”

How machine learning and AI are enhancing Joint Force operations reality is transforming manufacturing
“In stressful situations, too much information is the opposite of helpful. Machine learning algorithms can help weed out the extraneous data to avoid information overload.”

The human dimension of digital transformation
"Like many previous generations of disruption, the cost of digital tools for industrial operations declined as technology matured and adoption increased.”

Brawn, brains, and beauty
“Today there is more access to data and the ability to analyze and visualize that data in a meaningful way.”

Artificial social intelligence for enhanced collective problem-solving
When experts come together to solve big challenges, there can be inefficiencies in the group problem-solving process . . . A cognitive architecture will interpret how team members’ behaviors relate to their goals, and an AI coach could provide suggestions to improve team coordination.

Algorithms power collaborative autonomy for the Joint Force
“On the battlefield, they can even help warfighters — and the intelligent machines on which they rely — make the right decisions quickly in critical situations.”

Machine learning in the age of COVID-19 (video)
“The most robust machine learning models to survive this rapid change were designed with built-in adaptability so that the algorithms could handle issues with stationarity. One of the ways they achieved this was to slowly outphase older data in favor of newer data. That way, new habits, such as the unique way we spend money in 2020, actually help guide the models’ decision-making instead of tripping it up.”
Kelly wrote the video script for an Explainer video, which was published by the Verge and sponsored by Capital One.
Theory of mind for lunar robot swarms
“A team of scientists is developing AI inspired by a psychological principle called ‘theory of mind,’ which describes the ability to recognize differences between self and others.”

An innovation tsunami is swelling (video)
“With virtually infinite computing power, abundant data, and the fast growth of AI, industries are undergoing dramatic transformations.”
Kelly wrote the video script for this AWS campaign. Watch the video at The Verge.
Adaptable AI for military applications
This foundational technology enables robust, reliable AI that can adapt in the face of change, which is especially helpful when systems cannot be taken out of service for updates.

21st-century technology drives Industry 4.0
“The real magic happens when technologies combine, and machines and software programs communicate with each other.”

Personnel safety system for autonomous ground systems
“The system avoids active sensors such as lidar or radar, which can compromise covertness. Instead, it uses cameras and machine learning algorithms to distinguish between friendly and hostile pedestrians.”

Inside the latest Martian robot
“This week on Mars, NASA's InSight lander is slowly stretching its lanky robotic arm after a nearly seven-month, 300-million-mile journey from Earth. Soon, it will dig into the Martian subsurface to uncover information about how the planet was formed more than four billion years ago.”
