The pictures of the brightly coloured marine life were captured by researchers in Antarctica who are working on a better understanding of the impact of acidification on marine life on the sea floor. The pictures were captured by researchers in Antarctica who are working on a better understanding of the impact of acidification on marine life on the sea floor. The study was carried out near Australia's Casey research station, where marine life exists in water that is -1.5 degrees Celsius (29.3 degrees Fahrenheit) year round and covered in 1.5 metres (nearly five feet) of sea ice for 10 months of the year Angela Rye shares video of her invasive ordeal with TSA agent Boeing cargo plane overshoots runway before crashing in Colombia Male guests in a Chinese wedding flock to harass a bridesmaid Girl shouts at her poor Grandpa over her iPhone appointment Prisoner batters officer who finds him recording show on laptop Couple surprise family members with new SECRET baby Large explosion at fireworks market in Tultepec, Mexico.

Artificial intelligence: The 3 big trends to watch in 2017 - TechRepublic

#artificialintelligence

In 2016, the White House recognized the importance of AI at its Frontiers Conference. The concept of driverless cars became a reality, with Uber's self-driving fleet in Pittsburgh and Tesla's new models equipped with the hardware for full autonomy. Google's DeepMind platform, AlphaGo, beat the world champion of the game--10 years ahead of predictions. "Increasing use of machine learning and knowledge-based modeling methods" are major trends to watch in 2017, said Marie desJardins, associate dean and professor of computer science at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County. How will this play out?


2017 Conference

#artificialintelligence

ICML is the leading international machine learning conference and is supported by the International Machine Learning Society (IMLS). The 34th International Conference on Machine Learning (ICML 2017) will be held in Sydney, Australia, starting on Sunday, August 6th until Friday, August 11th, 2017.


Advance Analytics with R, Azure Machine Learning, Power BI and Microsoft R Server

#artificialintelligence

You will learn the main data structure in R, Managing Data with R, Exploring and Understanding Data in R (exploring numeric variable, categorical variable and relationship between variables). Moreover, audience learn how to use some of the main packages in R. You will learn different types of machine learning algorithms and how they work and how they can solve different type of real life problems. At the end of this module you will able to choose right algorithm for right problem.


7-Eleven has already made 77 deliveries by drone

Engadget

Sure, Amazon made its first drone delivery last week, but 7-Eleven already has it beat. Today, the convenience store company announced that it has already made a total of 77 deliveries by drone in the state of Nevada. Of course the caveat here is that 7-Eleven relied on Flirtey, a drone delivery service company that's already made a name for itself by delivering Domino's in New Zealand and textbooks in Australia. It also made the first FAA-approved urban drone delivery earlier this year. Though the deliveries kicked off in July, it was in November when the company started making regular weekend deliveries from a 7-Eleven store to about a dozen customers.


Africa: What Are the Top 10 Tech Trends of 2017?

Data science, advanced machine learning and artificial intelligence will be centre stage technologies shaping business in 2017 and beyond. That's according to analyst firm, Gartner, which predicts that enterprise will see "intelligence everywhere" as new software-based systems, which are programmed to learn and adapt, permeate businesses within the next three to five years. As outlined by Gartner vice president and fellow, David Cearley, these intelligent trends will intertwine to form a'digital mesh', blurring physical and digital workspaces. Artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced machine learning (ML) are intelligent machines that can understand, learn and operate autonomously. "Applied AI and ML give rise to a spectrum of intelligent implementations, including physical devices such as robots, autonomous vehicles and apps and services such as virtual personal assistants and smart advisors," Cearley said.


Doctors in India Are Using AI to Combat Blindness

#artificialintelligence

India is home to the world's largest population of blind people and not nearly enough optometrists to provide the care the country needs. But recently, some doctors there have been receiving help in the fight against eye disease from an unexpected source. As Mashable reports, machine learning is being used to better understand the spread of blindness and predict the success rates of eye surgeries. The initiative is part of a collaboration between Microsoft and the Indian not-for-profit LV Prasad Eye Institute (LVPEI). At the center of the project are their Azure machine learning and Power BI services: After analyzing the anonymous records of 1.1 million people, the AI system can trace patterns of eye disease.

Korea to introduce AI to filter out financial crimes

#artificialintelligence

Yoo Kwang-yeol, commissioner of the Korea Financial Intelligence Unit, said his agency is currently working to upgrade the main system that stores and analyzes information regarding hundreds of millions of financial transactions in order to increase accuracy of capturing suspicious transactions out of normal ones. "We are considering an uptake of the artificial intelligence technology to improve the current intelligence system by benchmarking advanced systems in countries like Australia and Canada," Yoo said in an interview with The Korea Herald. Yoo Kwang-yeol, commissioner of Korea Financial Intelligence Unit speaks during an interview at his office in Gwanghwamun, central Seoul, Dec. 6. Ahn Hoon/The Korea Herald For this, a group of KOFIU experts paid a trip to Australia earlier this month to learn from the Australian financial intelligence system. "AI can help improve efficiency of sorting out suspicious financial transactions and accuracy of analyzing related account information," Yoo said.
