Old patient stories help computers to predict cancer

#artificialintelligence

In near future computers will learn to recognize cancer. To achieve this they will need huge amounts of patient data. Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among Norwegian men. Fortunately, not everybody becomes ill or develops cancer. When something in the body can develop into cancer, it is natural that we will wish to remove it.

@machinelearnbot

The Renault-Nissan alliance is in the process of hiring a core team of at least 300 technology experts, with expertise in software and cloud engineering, data analytics, machine learning and systems architecture, for its newly-created Connected Vehicle and Mobility Services group. The global auto industry prepares to enter in the technological innovation. Thus, automotive players' investment such as The Renault-Nissan Alliance in digital automotive innovation are intended to be established. As they are launching at competition with some non – automotive firms such: Apple, Uber, Google … and some technology startups which is also initiating in this field, They launch in the technology experts' engagement around 300, for their new project in digital automotive. So, this give to all job seekers an opportunity to join their dynamic and innovative team to make a change in the numeric automotive's world image.

Plus, the new season of Black Mirror is here. Out-of-warranty battery replacements will now cost only $29.Apple apologizes for confusion over slowdowns with older iPhones Apple has been in hot water for the last few weeks after the company admitted that it sometimes reduced processor speeds on iPhones with aging batteries as a way to balance performance and battery life. Today, the company is apologizing for not being more transparent with its customers and released more details on how exactly iOS manages battery and performance. That, however, hasn't stopped several lawsuits, from the US to France. And what we're most excited about in 2018.The best games of 2017 Early 2017 brought us legitimate contenders for game of the year in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Horizon Zero Dawn and Persona 5 -- and that's not to mention Resident Evil's return to form.


Top 7 financial technology predictions for 2018

#artificialintelligence

We witnessed one of the most revolutionary years of the fintech, or financial technology, era in 2017. After years of expansion and consolidation, and the disappearance of some startups, we have experienced a year of disruption and change. And the disruption shows no sign of stopping in 2018. One of the clearest trends is the consolidation of China as the world's fintech leader. It is home to six of the seven largest fintech companies in the world.


Advanced Machine Learning Coursera

#artificialintelligence

The program was created based on the experience of leading American and European universities, such as Stanford University (U.S.) and EPFL (Switzerland). It is also closely related to Yandex School of Data Analysis, which is one of the strongest postgraduate schools in the field of computer science in Russia. In the faculty, learning is based on practice and projects. National Research University - Higher School of Economics (HSE) is one of the top research universities in Russia. Established in 1992 to promote new research and teaching in economics and related disciplines, it now offers programs at all levels of university education across an extraordinary range of fields of study including business, sociology, cultural studies, philosophy, political science, international relations, law, Asian studies, media and communications, IT, mathematics, engineering, and more.


The year of AI: A robot with a citizenship, an algo that performs better than trained cardiologists

#artificialintelligence

NEW DELHI: The year 2017 saw artificial intelligence bringing the stuff of science fiction closer to reality by not only gaining foothold in all spheres of life, but also getting the better of humans in many fields. From acquiring citizenship to outsmarting humans at complex games, from composing music to writing novels, from assisting doctors to helping fight judicial cases, artificial intelligence (AI) made its presence felt throughout the year. Artificial intelligence is a term used to describe systems or machines that mimic the cognitive functions of human minds, such as learning and problem solving. Although by no means a new concept, the technology made headlines throughout the year. Perhaps, among the most talked about AI machines this year was Sophia, a humanoid robot designed by a company in Hong Kong, that was granted citizenship in Saudi Arabia - a country where women were not allowed to drive until recently.


AI Weekly: AI democratization depends on tech giants

#artificialintelligence

A saying often heard from companies like Google and Microsoft is that they want to democratize AI. That's a nice word, democratize -- it's got "democracy" in it -- but it's unclear how these companies define democratization, and, like AI, it has an air of hype to it. Democratization in almost every context means delivering opportunities and benefits to everyone, but what exactly does democratization of AI mean to tech giants currently hoovering up much of the world's AI talent supply? Google chief scientist Fei-Fei Li has talked about it in relation to tensor processing units, and CEO Sundar Pichai in relation to AutoML, machine learning made to create machine learning. Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella describes democratization as putting AI in the hands of "every developer, every organization, every public sector organization around the world."


A three-day work week? It's possible with artificial intelligence

#artificialintelligence

Artificial intelligence (AI) has a perception problem in India. In the emerging debate around AI, it is either a bugaboo or the tech industry's secret potion for profiteering. It is also seen as a gigantic steamroller that is flattening the IT jobs landscape. Nothing could be farther from the truth. AI is making the future brighter; it represents civilizational progress.

Proteomics Analysis of FLT3-ITD Mutation in Acute Myeloid Leukemia Using Deep Learning Neural Network

arXiv.org Machine Learning

Deep Learning can significantly benefit cancer proteomics and genomics. In this study, we attempt to determine a set of critical proteins that are associated with the FLT3-ITD mutation in newly-diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia patients. A Deep Learning network consisting of autoencoders forming a hierarchical model from which high-level features are extracted without labeled training data. Dimensional reduction reduced the number of critical proteins from 231 to 20. Deep Learning found an excellent correlation between FLT3-ITD mutation with the levels of these 20 critical proteins (accuracy 97%, sensitivity 90%, specificity 100%). Our Deep Learning network could hone in on 20 proteins with the strongest association with FLT3-ITD. The results of this study allow a novel approach to determine critical protein pathways in the FLT3-ITD mutation, and provide proof-of-concept for an accurate approach to model big data in cancer proteomics and genomics.
