ICL Services to Present Applied AI Solutions for the Agriculture and Retail Sectors

One of the key discussion topics will be the experience of deploying a video analytics system across the Auchan Retail Russia retail network. Sergey Scherbakov will present a case study on the use of the AISee platform designed for monitoring self-checkout areas.

"The AISee video analytics platform monitors customer behavior in the self-checkout (SCO) area and automatically identifies violations such as missed items during scanning, barcode substitution of higher-priced goods with cheaper ones, and unpaid purchases," notes Sergey Scherbakov. "This helps significantly reduce losses from theft and checkout errors at self-checkout stations, while also tripling security team efficiency."

The expert will also discuss the broader capabilities of video analytics in the fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) sector, including packaging quality control, order accuracy checks in warehouses, and evaluation of staff performance.

Marina Kirilenko will present SNRD (Snaryad), a Russian modular microservices platform designed for comprehensive enterprise resource management. The platform automates a wide range of tasks, including asset and inventory management, workforce scheduling, and the organization of field operations.

"The platform is built on a patented artificial intelligence-based algorithm. It identifies patterns, analyzes hundreds of parameters – from schedules to personnel competencies – and generates an optimal action plan within minutes, increasing workforce efficiency and extending asset lifecycles," explains Marina Kirilenko.

A case study on optimizing the petroleum products supply chain for Gazprom will be presented as a practical example. The speaker will describe how AI was used to maximize profitability across the entire network of gas stations and improve the efficiency of tanker scheduling for fuel deliveries.

For ICL Services, participation in this event further underscores the company's strong expertise in artificial intelligence and its hands-on experience in solving challenges in the fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) sector.
