Generative Temporal Models with Memory

arXiv.org Machine Learning

We consider the general problem of modeling temporal data with long-range dependencies, wherein new observations are fully or partially predictable based on temporally-distant, past observations. A sufficiently powerful temporal model should separate predictable elements of the sequence from unpredictable elements, express uncertainty about those unpredictable elements, and rapidly identify novel elements that may help to predict the future. To create such models, we introduce Generative Temporal Models augmented with external memory systems. They are developed within the variational inference framework, which provides both a practical training methodology and methods to gain insight into the models' operation. We show, on a range of problems with sparse, long-term temporal dependencies, that these models store information from early in a sequence, and reuse this stored information efficiently. This allows them to perform substantially better than existing models based on well-known recurrent neural networks, like LSTMs.

More than 100 attendees at the Artificial Intelligence workshop ETSIT โ€“ everisMoriarty

#artificialintelligence

On February 16th, Antonio Garcรญa Morte, CTO (Chief Technology Officer) at the CADC participated in the "Artificial Intelligence Days at ETSIT" to give a workshop to the students of the Technical School of Telecommunications Engineers of the Polytechnic University from Madrid. The workshop was attended by 106 engineering students of different specialties such as; Telecommunications, Computing and Biomedical, interested in all the advances that are happening in the field of artificial intelligence.During the session will be treated in a very interactive way all the advances that are happening in the field of artificial intelligence. Antonio Garcรญa Morte, conducted a very interactive workshop with students discovering the fundamental theoretical aspects, such as search algorithms, deep learning, or genetic algorithms, to reach the most important practical advances of our time, such as the self-driven car. The teaching objective of the session was to provide to the student a clear mental map of the different areas that make up the artificial intelligence, together with the theoretical foundations and practical applications of each one of them.


30 Top Videos, Tutorials & Courses on Machine Learning & Artificial Intelligence from 2016

@machinelearnbot

We have seen the likes of Google, Facebook, Amazon and many more come out in open and acknowledge the impact machine learning and deep learning had on their business. Last week, I published top videos on deep learning from 2016. I was blown away by the response. I could understand the response to some degree โ€“ I found these videos extremely helpful. So, I decided to do a similar article on top videos on machine learning from 2016.


A Model-Theoretic View on Qualitative Constraint Reasoning

Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research

Qualitative reasoning formalisms are an active research topic in artificial intelligence. In this survey we present a model-theoretic perspective on qualitative constraint reasoning and explain some of the basic concepts and results in an accessible way. In particular, we discuss the significance of omega-categoricity for qualitative reasoning, of primitive positive interpretations for complexity analysis, and of Datalog as a unifying language for describing local consistency algorithms.


Variational limits of k-NN graph based functionals on data clouds

arXiv.org Machine Learning

We consider i.i.d. samples $x_1, \dots, x_n$ from a measure $\nu$ with density supported on a bounded Euclidean domain $D \subseteq R^d $ where $d\geq3$. A graph on the point cloud is obtained by connecting two points if one of them is among the $k$-nearest neighbors of the other. Our goal is to study consistency of graph based procedures to clustering, classification and dimensionality reduction by studying the variational convergence of the graph total variation associated to such $k$-NN graph. We prove that provided $k:=k_n$ scales like $n \gg k_n \gg \log(n)$, then the $\Gamma$-convergence of the graph total variation towards an appropriate weighted total variation is guaranteed.


So long Asimov's Laws, say hello to the 23 Laws of Robotics

#artificialintelligence

Ever since people first discussing the concept of robots and "mechanical men" humans have been fascinated, not just by the frailty of our own existence but also about the possibility of a robo-rebellion, led by machines that are more intelligent, and more capable than us, and that could potentially, by all definitions, be immortal. In 1942 Isaac Asimov, one of the greatest science fiction writers of all time, devised one of the world's most captivating laws for his book the "Handbook of Robotics, 56th Edition, 2058 AD." Known as the Three Laws of Robotics many people have considered them to be the main go to laws that should govern today's mechanical men, or "Electronic Persons" โ€“ the legal status that the EU will give them later this year. But life, law and technology is more complicated than that. Part of the Three Laws appeal is that they are so simple, and people like simple. For anyone who's ever watched a film like the Terminator series most of us know that there are some dangers associated with the path that society is racing down โ€“ whether that's because we're busy creating robots in our own image, or creating new intelligent machines that one day soon will exceed human intelligence.


Bring Minecraft to Life With These Cheap 3-D Printers

WIRED

In all likelihood, 3-D printing will forever remain a niche thing. But if you or your kid happen to reside in that niche, making your own stuff has become crazy accessible. Much of the reason is software: Microsoft's Paint 3-D app in the upcoming Windows 10 Creators Update makes designing 3-D objects super simple, and kids can even print out their own Minecraft creations. But the hardware is following suit, as 3-D printers are now much cheaper and easier to use. For less than $300, you can now buy a capable and beginner-friendly 3-D printer.
