PFN to work with PyTorch and the open-source community to develop the framework and advance MN-Core processor support. Preferred Networks, Inc. (PFN, Head Office: Tokyo, President & CEO: Toru Nishikawa) today announced plans to incrementally transition its deep learning framework (a fundamental technology in research and development) from PFN's Chainer to PyTorch. Concurrently, PFN will collaborate with Facebook and the other contributors of the PyTorch community to actively participate in the development of PyTorch. With the latest major upgrade v7 released today, Chainer will move into a maintenance phase. PFN will provide documentation and a library to facilitate the migration to PyTorch for Chainer users.

As Dao explains, the algorithms read sequences in order to recognise which areas are forested and whether these areas are shrinking. These sequences are individual images strung together in chronological succession – much like old film reels or comic strips. So when a new road is built through the rainforest, for instance, numerous smaller roads form off it over time. It is along these roads that the forest coverage is destroyed. From a bird's-eye view, the resulting pattern resembles the skeleton of a fish, with its spine and small bones – thus the moniker "fish bones".

The Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) is putting forward a regulation that businesses and other organizations are required to explain decisions made by artificial intelligence (AI) or face multimillion-dollar fines if unable to. The guidance will provide advice such as how to explain the procedures, services, and outcomes delivered or assisted by AI to affected individuals. The report would detail the documentation of the decision-making process and data used to arrive at a decision. In extreme cases, organizations that fail to comply may face a fine of up to 4 percent of a company's global turnover, under the EU's data protection law. The new guidance is crucial as many firms in the UK are using some form of AI to execute critical business decisions, such as shortlisting and hiring candidates for roles. At the same time, two-thirds of UK financial services rely on AI to support customer services, drive business decisions and transactions.

In January of 2019 Smart Dubai launched the city's official principles and guidelines for the ethical implementation of AI. What truly makes Dubai's approach to AI unique is our city-government launched AI Ethics Self-Assessment Toolkit – which allows anyone implementing AI to self-assess their performance against a set of criteria which when taken together assure an ethical approach. The process uses the data from the toolkit to create a positive feedback loop with those using and developing AI. Express Computer spoke to H.E. Younus Al Nasser, Assistant Director General, Smart Dubai and CEO, Smart Dubai Data. What potential do you see in AI for governance and happiness?

Every day is Halloween for Virtual YouTubers or "VTubers" -- the new generation of wildly popular online entertainers whose voices and actions are represented in real time by colourful and expressive anime characters. Now, a Google researcher has released a deep neural network model that makes animating a VTube persona a little easier. Using motion capture systems to transfer human movements to cartoon characters in real-time is a process that can be traced back to the 90s. The approach however was not popularized, and the term "Virtual YouTuber" did not enter our vocabulary until the virtual character "Kizuna AI" debuted in 2016. Kizuna is a cute young girl with wide eyes and a pink butterfly bow perched atop her long flowing hair -- any otaku's dream.

KYODO – Japanese airline ANA Holdings Inc. opened Thursday what it says is the world's first store where customers can shop remotely through an avatar. The robots, standing 1.5 meters tall, will be employed at the avatar-in store through Dec. 24 in a shopping mall in Tokyo's Nihombashi district, in collaboration with major department store operator Isetan Mitsukoshi Holdings Ltd. Customers using computers can control the robots called newme from anywhere in the country and shop for items in the gift store as if they were there. No actual customers will be allowed to physically enter the avatar-in store. The robot, which moves around the store on wheels, includes a tablet-sized monitor that displays the customer's facial expressions in real time. Online registration is required to use the service, said ANA, which plans to introduce as many as 1,000 avatar robots in Japan, including 100 in the Nihombashi business and commercial district next year in time for the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics.

The Federal Reserve Bank of New York is turning to machine learning to cut down on the back and forth between the regulator and banks and predict potential misreporting. Sri Malladi, senior director at the New York Fed's data and statistics group, said during the Waters USA conference in Manhattan that the regulator's long-term goal with machine learning is to be able to predict potential issues with banks' reporting. "We want to be at the point where we know that distribution expert reports
