With the advancements in natural language processing and machine learning, we now have access to tools like ChatGPT that can greatly simplify the process. In this blog post, we'll be taking a step-by-step approach to using ChatGPT to generate a Flask REST API. We'll cover everything from setting upโ€ฆ


MATT: Multimodal Attention Level Estimation for e-learning Platforms

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

This work presents a new multimodal system for remote attention level estimation based on multimodal face analysis. Our multimodal approach uses different parameters and signals obtained from the behavior and physiological processes that have been related to modeling cognitive load such as faces gestures (e.g., blink rate, facial actions units) and user actions (e.g., head pose, distance to the camera). The multimodal system uses the following modules based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs): Eye blink detection, head pose estimation, facial landmark detection, and facial expression features. First, we individually evaluate the proposed modules in the task of estimating the student's attention level captured during online e-learning sessions. For that we trained binary classifiers (high or low attention) based on Support Vector Machines (SVM) for each module. Secondly, we find out to what extent multimodal score level fusion improves the attention level estimation. The mEBAL database is used in the experimental framework, a public multi-modal database for attention level estimation obtained in an e-learning environment that contains data from 38 users while conducting several e-learning tasks of variable difficulty (creating changes in student cognitive loads).


Proactive and Reactive Engagement of Artificial Intelligence Methods for Education: A Review

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Quality education, one of the seventeen sustainable development goals (SDGs) identified by the United Nations General Assembly, stands to benefit enormously from the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) driven tools and technologies. The concurrent boom of necessary infrastructure, digitized data and general social awareness has propelled massive research and development efforts in the artificial intelligence for education (AIEd) sector. In this review article, we investigate how artificial intelligence, machine learning and deep learning methods are being utilized to support students, educators and administrative staff. We do this through the lens of a novel categorization approach. We consider the involvement of AI-driven methods in the education process in its entirety - from students admissions, course scheduling etc. in the proactive planning phase to knowledge delivery, performance assessment etc. in the reactive execution phase. We outline and analyze the major research directions under proactive and reactive engagement of AI in education using a representative group of 194 original research articles published in the past two decades i.e., 2003 - 2022. We discuss the paradigm shifts in the solution approaches proposed, i.e., in the choice of data and algorithms used over this time. We further dive into how the COVID-19 pandemic challenged and reshaped the education landscape at the fag end of this time period. Finally, we pinpoint existing limitations in adopting artificial intelligence for education and reflect on the path forward.


Road Map to Machine Learning & Deep Learning

#artificialintelligence

Learning is something that we have to do every day. As a developer, you need to learn the latest and hottest technologies because if you don't, you might not be able to succeed in this field. I am a web developer and machine learning engineer. I am working on both and trying to improve my skills with time, but sometimes you need guidance to see where you are right now and where you see yourself in the future. So for this blog, I am going to give you a perfect road map through which you can learn the basics and then start training your own different models for machine learning.


Comparing different subgradient methods for solving convex optimization problems with functional constraints

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

We consider the problem of minimizing a convex, nonsmooth function subject to a closed convex constraint domain. The methods that we propose are reforms of subgradient methods based on Metel--Takeda's paper [Optimization Letters 15.4 (2021): 1491-1504] and Boyd's works [Lecture notes of EE364b, Stanford University, Spring 2013-14, pp. 1-39]. While the former has complexity $\mathcal{O}(\varepsilon^{-2r})$ for all $r> 1$, the complexity of the latter is $\mathcal{O}(\varepsilon^{-2})$. We perform some comparisons between these two methods using several test examples.


Accelerating PyTorch Transformers with Intel Sapphire Rapids - part 1

#artificialintelligence

About a year ago, we showed you how to distribute the training of Hugging Face transformers on a cluster or third-generation Intel Xeon Scalable CPUs (aka Ice Lake). Recently, Intel has launched the fourth generation of Xeon CPUs, code-named Sapphire Rapids, with exciting new instructions that speed up operations commonly found in deep learning models. In this post, you will learn how to accelerate a PyTorch training job with a cluster of Sapphire Rapids servers running on AWS. We will use the Intel oneAPI Collective Communications Library (CCL) to distribute the job, and the Intel Extension for PyTorch (IPEX) library to automatically put the new CPU instructions to work. As both libraries are already integrated with the Hugging Face transformers library, we will be able to run our sample scripts out of the box without changing a line of code.
