Looking to Learn and Apply AI in Road Freight Transport & Logistics

Hi everyone,

I’m a co-founder of a Portugese Startup, a digital platform for road freight transport and logistics, connecting shippers and carriers efficiently. I have a basic understanding of AI, but I want to dive deeper and learn how to apply AI to optimize logistics, dynamic pricing, demand forecasting, and enhance user experience.

My goal here is to absorb as much knowledge as possible and leverage AI to make BIPBIP a reference in the industry. What are the best courses, frameworks, or tools to start with? Any practical recommendations for startups in the transport sector?

Many thanks in advance for all the support of this community

If you you have no idea of python start with Python for Everybody, if no idea about Machine Learning start with AI for Everyone.

If you have some knowledge of python and maths then the Machine Learning Specialization and then the Deep Learning Specialization.

Many thanks for your words

Perfect you just confirm me that i have started well , I have started 2 days ago.

But mu plattform is not Python it was programed in different code: .NET

Why did you assume that phyton was the 1st choice? Just for my awareness, its good to have opinions with experts like you

Many thanks

The courses are in python and python is used a lot in machine learing, thats why.

Hello

One more question and its close!

Now that I know that phyton is popular for machine learning, do you see any threat to my plattform that have a different code, if I santo to implement machine learning as soon as possible, will i face extra problems to not have it in phyton !?

Many thanks

Best regards

There are many libraries of useful machine learning methods that use Python. Also, most of the basic tutorials use Python.

You will have an extra challenge if you use another platform.

Thank you for your Guidance

Let me check how I Will Manage it

Best regards

@Jonijose check out the ‘traveling salesman problem’ Travelling salesman problem - Wikipedia. This is classic and even with AI (to my awareness) hasn’t been solved yet. We have some heuristics that get close, but not ‘optimally’.

I would think you would have problems because I have only encountered machine learning in Python; other languages are used too, but not much really. There are many libraries for machine learning only in Python!
