What happens when the road gets bumpier? Not too long ago, tech enthusiasts were telling us that by 2020, we'd see self-driving cars hit the mainstream, with some 10 million on the roads. That turned out to be a wild overestimation. The actual number of vehicles in testing is thousands of times smaller, and they're still driving mostly in controlled conditions. Companies have also scaled back their ambitions, aiming more for driver support than full autonomy, just as sober-minded transport experts told us to expect. But slower development is probably just as well, as it should help improve vehicle safety and give engineers time to prepare for other threats, such as hackers turning cars into destructive weapons.

The combination of human expert and artificial intelligence can efficiently eradicate the spread of coronavirus. FREMONT, CA: The coronaviruses are a massive family of viruses that are popular among several species of animals like cattle, bats, camels, and cats. Animal coronavirus can rarely infect people, but it can spread among the public with severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS), and recently identified through novel coronavirus (nCOV). The first human case of the virus was recognized last year in December in the district of Wuhan, China. It is being predicted that the virus was originated from seafood. The symptoms of the infection are cough, fever, shortness of breath, and sore throat.

The global artificial intelligence (AI) market in food and beverage (F&B) industry market is poised to grow by USD 275.34 million during 2017-2021, progressing at a CAGR of more than 42% during the forecast period. This press release features multimedia. The introduction of regulations to improve food safety and emergence of IIoT is anticipated to boost the growth of the market. Manufacturers in the F&B industry are increasingly adopting automation to meet regulations and guidelines set by industry associations for the maintenance of quality products. F&B manufacturers are required to have a safety system in place for analysis of hazards and risk-based preventive controls.

Examples include meteorology, biology, and physics. The usual way to model deterministic dynamical systems is by using (partial) differential equations. Typically, differential equations models for a given dynamical system are derived using apriori insights into the problem at hand; then the model is validated using empirical observations. In an era in which massive data-sets pertaining to different fields of science are widely available, an interesting problem is whether it is possible for a useful differential equations model to be learned directly from data, without any major modeling effort required by the researcher. Our goal in this paper is to develop a general methodology for building such differential equations models in contexts in which not all relevant variables are observed, that is, in cases in which the main variable of interest depends on other variables of which no measurements are available. As a concrete example, consider the following problem. RTE, the electricity transmission system operator of France, uses high-level simulations of hourly temperature series to study the impact different climate scenarios have on electricity consumption, and hence on the French electrical power grid.

Accurate and efficient models for rainfall runoff (RR) simulations are crucial for flood risk management. Most rainfall models in use today are process-driven; i.e. they solve either simplified empirical formulas or some variation of the St. Venant (shallow water) equations. With the development of machine-learning techniques, we may now be able to emulate rainfall models using, for example, neural networks. In this study, a data-driven RR model using a sequence-to-sequence Long-short-Term-Memory (LSTM) network was constructed. The model was tested for a watershed in Houston, TX, known for severe flood events. The LSTM network's capability in learning long-term dependencies between the input and output of the network allowed modeling RR with high resolution in time (15 minutes). Using 10-years precipitation from 153 rainfall gages and river channel discharge data (more than 5.3 million data points), and by designing several numerical tests the developed model performance in predicting river discharge was tested. The model results were also compared with the output of a process-driven model Gridded Surface Subsurface Hydrologic Analysis (GSSHA). Moreover, physical consistency of the LSTM model was explored. The model results showed that the LSTM model was able to efficiently predict discharge and achieve good model performance. When compared to GSSHA, the data-driven model was more efficient and robust in terms of prediction and calibration. Interestingly, the performance of the LSTM model improved (test Nash-Sutcliffe model efficiency from 0.666 to 0.942) when a selected subset of rainfall gages based on the model performance, were used as input instead of all rainfall gages.

Current daily paper releases are becoming increasingly large and areas of research are growing in diversity. This makes it harder for scientists to keep up to date with current state of the art and identify relevant work within their lines of interest. The goal of this article is to address this problem using Machine Learning techniques. We model a scientific paper to be built as a combination of different scientific knowledge from diverse topics into a new problem. In light of this, we implement the unsupervised Machine Learning technique of Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) on the corpus of papers in a given field to: i) define and extract underlying topics in the corpus; ii) get the topics weight vector for each paper in the corpus; and iii) get the topics weight vector for new papers. By registering papers preferred by a user, we build a user vector of weights using the information of the vectors of the selected papers. Hence, by performing an inner product between the user vector and each paper in the daily Arxiv release, we can sort the papers according to the user preference on the underlying topics. We have created the website IArxiv.org where users can read sorted daily Arxiv releases (and more) while the algorithm learns each users preference, yielding a more accurate sorting every day. Current IArxiv.org version runs on Arxiv categories astro-ph, gr-qc, hep-ph and hep-th and we plan to extend to others. We propose several new useful and relevant implementations to be additionally developed as well as new Machine Learning techniques beyond LDA to further improve the accuracy of this new tool.

A vast number of multicriteria decision making methods have been developed to deal with the problem of ranking a set of alternatives evaluated in a multicriteria fashion. Very often, these methods assume that the evaluation among criteria is statistically independent. However, in actual problems, the observed data may comprise dependent criteria, which, among other problems, may result in biased rankings. In order to deal with this issue, we propose a novel approach whose aim is to estimate, from the observed data, a set of independent latent criteria, which can be seen as an alternative representation of the original decision matrix. A central element of our approach is to formulate the decision problem as a blind source separation problem, which allows us to apply independent component analysis techniques to estimate the latent criteria. Moreover, we consider TOPSIS-based approaches to obtain the ranking of alternatives from the latent criteria. Results in both synthetic and actual data attest the relevance of the proposed approach.

Causality has traditionally been a scientific way to generate knowledge by relating causes to effects. From an imaginery point of view, causal graphs are a helpful tool for representing and infering new causal information. In previous works, we have generated automatically causal graphs associated to a given concept by analyzing sets of documents and extracting and representing the found causal information in that visual way. The retrieved information shows that causality is frequently imperfect rather than exact, feature gathered by the graph. In this work we will attempt to go a step further modelling the uncertainty in the graph through probabilistic improving the management of the imprecision in the quoted graph.
