13 Common Mistakes Amateur Data Scientists Make and How to Avoid Them?
So you've decided data science is the field for you. More and more businesses are becoming data driven, the world is increasingly becoming more connected and looks like every business will need a data science practice. So, the demand for data scientists is huge. Even better, everyone acknowledges the shortfall of talent in the industry. However, becoming a data scientist does not come easy. It needs a mix of problem solving, structured thinking, coding and various technical skills among others to be truly successful. If you are from a non-technical and non-mathematical background, there's a good chance a lot of your learning happens through books and video courses. Most of these resources don't teach you what the industry is looking for in a data scientist.
OracleVoice: Edtech Startup To Release Blockchain-Based 'Lifelong Learning Ledger'
Brandman University is taking a new approach to adult education, focusing on student competencies and work experience rather than transcripts when deciding which students to admit and when they graduate. Brandman already is working with companies, including Walmart and Discover, to offer employee-education programs. The Irvine, California-based nonprofit university accepts subject matter expertise and experience as course credit, making it easier for working adults to earn college degrees and advance their careers. At most conventional colleges, students must fulfill prerequisite courses to earn admission and a set of required courses to earn a degree. Under the Brandman approach, if an applicant has, say, a 20-year career in finance but no formal coursework in finance, "she can now test out of many course requirements, simply by proving her mastery through standard assessments, writing samples, even work projects," says the university's chief financial officer.
Will it Blend? Composing Value Functions in Reinforcement Learning
van Niekerk, Benjamin, James, Steven, Earle, Adam, Rosman, Benjamin
An important property for lifelong-learning agents is the ability to combine existing skills to solve unseen tasks. In general, however, it is unclear how to compose skills in a principled way. We provide a "recipe" for optimal value function composition in entropy-regularised reinforcement learning (RL) and then extend this to the standard RL setting. Composition is demonstrated in a video game environment, where an agent with an existing library of policies is able to solve new tasks without the need for further learning.
Leveraging Artificial Intelligence to Tide Over Education Crisis - DZone AI
Artificial intelligence technology in education is no more the future, it is the present. We are already witnessing the impact of technology in the education sector. Increased uses of digital devices, adaptive learning platforms, and engaging lessons have transformed the learning as well as teaching processes. With the help of artificial intelligence technology, the educators today are working on creating activities that can not only ignite the curiosities among the students, but can make their learning experience a memorable one. Although AI can never replace the human teachers, it has successfully given a whole new meaning to the roles and responsibilities of a teacher.
Websites That Teach Artificial Intelligence Fundamentals
There are lots of education options available online, provided you're a self-starter with the discipline to do a lot of coursework on your own. For example, Microsoft's AI School offers a variety of lessons for developers in everything from text analytics and object recognition to custom neural-network models. The content is angled toward data scientists and developers, and heavily emphasizes the use of Microsoft products (of course) in addition to "universal" A.I. skills. It's also free, although those who want Verified Certificates will need to pay a fee. Microsoft, of course, is far from your only option when it comes to learning about A.I. online, particularly with regard to beginner-level material.
AtDelfi: Automatically Designing Legible, Full Instructions For Games
Green, Michael Cerny, Khalifa, Ahmed, Barros, Gabriella A. B., Machado, Tiago, Nealen, Andy, Togelius, Julian
This paper introduces a fully automatic method for generating video game tutorials. The AtDELFI system (AuTomatically DEsigning Legible, Full Instructions for games) was created to investigate procedural generation of instructions that teach players how to play video games. We present a representation of game rules and mechanics using a graph system as well as a tutorial generation method that uses said graph representation. We demonstrate the concept by testing it on games within the General Video Game Artificial Intelligence (GVG-AI) framework; the paper discusses tutorials generated for eight different games. Our findings suggest that a graph representation scheme works well for simple arcade style games such as Space Invaders and Pacman, but it appears that tutorials for more complex games might require higher-level understanding of the game than just single mechanics.
Three ways open source software makes IoT stronger - IoT Agenda
Open source software has never been more valuable than it is today. But, don't take my word for it -- just look at Microsoft's most recent move. Why else would this tech titan spend $7.5 billion to acquire GitHub, the world's most popular software development platform? The Internet of Things (IoT) world may be exciting, but there are serious technical challenges that need to be addressed, especially by developers. In this handbook, learn how to meet the security, analytics, and testing requirements for IoT applications.
10 Reasons you should learn Artificial Intelligence - TechEconomy.ng
When talking about Artificial Intelligence, some people think about the destruction of the world and killer robots, but Artificial Intelligence is already playing a major role in our lives, non-destructively. We all are familiar with programs such as Siri and Google Now, which are improving our way of life. Similarly, you must have played chess against the computer, in which most people get beat atrociously. These programs are nothing but artificial intelligence, which is designed to assist us with a set of protocols. Similar programs are self-driving cars, or motion and reflex detecting video games, which evolve as time goes along.
Train a model in tf.keras with Colab, and run it in the browser with TensorFlow.js
We will create a simple tool that recognizes drawings and outputs the names of the current drawing. This app will run directly on the browser without any installations. We will use Google Colab for training the model, and we will deploy it on the browser using TensorFlow.js. Find the live demo and the code on GitHub. Also make sure to test the notebook on Google Colab here.
