Deep Convolutional Neural Networks for Interpretable Analysis of EEG Sleep Stage Scoring

arXiv.org Machine Learning

Sleep studies are important for diagnosing sleep disorders such as insomnia, narcolepsy or sleep apnea. They rely on manual scoring of sleep stages from raw polisomnography signals, which is a tedious visual task requiring the workload of highly trained professionals. Consequently, research efforts to purse for an automatic stage scoring based on machine learning techniques have been carried out over the last years. In this work, we resort to multitaper spectral analysis to create visually interpretable images of sleep patterns from EEG signals as inputs to a deep convolutional network trained to solve visual recognition tasks. As a working example of transfer learning, a system able to accurately classify sleep stages in new unseen patients is presented. Evaluations in a widely-used publicly available dataset favourably compare to state-of-the-art results, while providing a framework for visual interpretation of outcomes.


Apple iPhone X Production Woe Sparked by Juliet and Her Romeo

WSJ.com: WSJD - Technology

BEIJING-- Apple Inc. AAPL 0.55% hit a production snag with components crucial to its new iPhone X's facial-recognition system, people familiar with the situation said, adding to concerns about extended shortages when sales begin early in November. The components, known as Romeo and Juliet among Apple engineers and suppliers, work together to allow users of the latest iPhone to unlock their devices by scanning their faces, the people said. It has taken more time to assemble the Romeo modules than the Juliet modules, they said, creating an imbalance in supply. That has created a bottleneck for the iPhone X's mass production, according to one person, which could crimp supplies beyond typical initial shortfalls when the phone is released Nov. 3. Apple, based in Cupertino, Calif., declined to comment.

Abe eager to push deregulation in bid for Japan to become innovation capital

The Japan Times

KYOTO โ€“ Prime Minister Shinzo Abe vowed Sunday to push forward deregulation to bring about more technological innovations in Japan. Delivering a speech at an international conference on science and technology in Kyoto, Abe said he aims to make Japan a "cradle" for the so-called open innovations that go beyond organizational boundaries for the development of novel products and services. "The key is deregulation," Abe stressed. He pointed out that foreign companies have already been interested in Japan as a place to test self-driving technologies and develop new drugs. The use of robots is expected to help Japan's agriculture, where the farming population is aging and decreasing, Abe noted.


Creepy lifelike android unveiled at Tokyo Games Show

Daily Mail - Science & tech

An incredibly'life-like' android appears to show how the line between woman and machine is starting to disappear. Footage captured at this year's Tokyo Game Show has already amassed three million views on one video-sharing platform alone, but not everyone believes their eyes. A fierce debate has broken out among people who have seen the reputed robot with many believing it must be a person, while others think she is the genuine article. The upcoming game for PS4 allows players to travel to the near-future metropolis of Detroit. The city has been rejuvenated by an exciting technological development: androids.


Artificial intelligence could be a $14 billion industry by 2023

#artificialintelligence

A visitor speaks to Baidu's robot, Xiaodu, at the 2015 Baidu World Conference in Beijing, China, September 8, 2015. A recent report asserts that the artificial intelligence (AI) industry will reach a compound annual growth rate of 17.2% by 2023. The market is set to swell to a whopping $14.2 billion over the next six years, up from just $525 million in 2015. Natural language processing technology is set to be a huge contributor to this growth. This tech is being adopted rapidly, particularly by financial institutions, because it can carry out customer service transactions and answer common questions in the place of human employees.


Yemen Houthi forces shoot down U.S. surveillance drone over the capital, Sanaa

The Japan Times

DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES โ€“ Yemen's Houthi forces shot down a U.S. surveillance drone in the capital, Sanaa, on Sunday, the Houthi-controlled state news agency SABA reported. The Houthi movement and its ally, former President Ali Abdullah Saleh, control much of northern Yemen, including Sanaa, and are battling a Saudi-led coalition that is trying to restore the internationally recognized government of President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi. The United States backs the Saudi-led coalition by providing it with intelligence and weapons. "A military source said (Houthi) air defenses shot down a U.S. MQ-9 surveillance drone in Jader area in the Sanaa province," SABA reported. A photographer said the drone came down at around 11 am local time in a crowded area on the outskirts of the capital, but there were no reports of any casualties.


Baidu announces $1.5B fund to back self-driving car startups

#artificialintelligence

Baidu is putting some serious cash behind its self-driving car push after it announced a $1.5 billion fund that's focused on backing autonomous driving tech companies. The Chinese giant, best known for its internet search service and AI technology, has prioritized autonomous vehicles in a major way in recent years, so this comes as little surprise. Baidu made its Apollo self-driving car platform freely available to the auto industry earlier this year. That quickly picked up partners and it currently claims around 70, including Hyundai, Bosch, Continental, Nvidia, Microsoft Cloud, Velodyne, TomTom, UCAR and Grab. Now Baidu -- which is testing autonomous vehicles in both China and the U.S. -- is doubling down with capital via this new fund, which it said will aim to support around 100 companies over the next three years.
