I hope that you enjoy the latest AI news and insights, make sure to check the Web3 section at the end! Second, that these defined categories have equally defined external manifestations on your face. Like many AIs designed to create artwork in various mediums based on prompts, it takes practice and skill to get usable chunks of text -- users have to learn to communicate ideas with the AI, making the process something akin to a machine-human collaboration. Join this webinar on 8/3 to learn how Rakuten Rewards leverages a data mesh strategy with Snowflake & AtScale to deliver data agility and lightning-fast query performance in the cloud.


How AI will change corporate training in the near future - MATRIX Blog

#artificialintelligence

A version of this post was originally published in Entrepreneur on February 1, 2022. I've been in the education business for decades as a senior lecturer, trainer and CEO. When people ask me about the biggest challenge that learners face, the first thing that comes to mind is that learners see training as something they "have to do." Now, let's think for a moment about this. How did we get here? Why aren't we talking about "want to do" or "happy to have the opportunity to do?"


Detecting Fake News using Python and GridDB

#artificialintelligence

Whenever we come across such articles, we instinctively feel that something doesn't feel right. There are so many posts out there that it is nearly impossible to sort out the right from the wrong. Fake news can be claimed in two ways: First, an argument against the facts. The former can only be accomplished with automated query systems and substantial searches into the internet. The latter is possible through a natural language processing pipeline followed by a machine learning pipeline.

Experience with Abrupt Transition to Remote Teaching of Embedded Systems

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Due to the pandemic of COVID-19, many university courses had to abruptly transform to enable remote teaching. Adjusting courses on embedded systems and micro-controllers was extra challenging since interaction with real hardware is their integral part. We start by comparing our experience with four basic alternatives of teaching embedded systems: 1) interacting with hardware at school, 2) having remote access to hardware, 3) lending hardware to students for at-home work and 4) virtualizing hardware. Afterward, we evaluate in detail our experience of the fast transition from traditional, offline at-school hardware programming course to using remote access to real hardware present in the lab. The somewhat unusual remote hardware access approach turned out to be a fully viable alternative for teaching embedded systems, enabling a relatively low-effort transition. Our setup is based on existing solutions and stable open technologies without the need for custom-developed applications that require high maintenance. We evaluate the experience of both the students and teachers and condense takeaways for future courses. The specific environment setup is available online as an inspiration for others.


A Simplistic and Cost-Effective Design for Real-World Development of an Ambient Assisted Living System for Fall Detection and Indoor Localization: Proof of Concept

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Falls, highly common in the constantly increasing global aging population, can have a variety of negative effects on their health, well-being, and quality of life, including restricting their capabilities to conduct Activities of Daily Living (ADLs), which are crucial for one's sustenance. Timely assistance during falls is highly necessary, which involves tracking the indoor location of the elderly during their diverse navigational patterns associated with ADLs to detect the precise location of a fall. With the decreasing caregiver population on a global scale, it is important that the future of intelligent living environments can detect falls during ADLs while being able to track the indoor location of the elderly in the real world. To address these challenges, this work proposes a cost-effective and simplistic design paradigm for an Ambient Assisted Living system that can capture multimodal components of user behaviors during ADLs that are necessary for performing fall detection and indoor localization in a simultaneous manner in the real world. Proof of concept results from real-world experiments are presented to uphold the effective working of the system. The findings from two comparison studies with prior works in this field are also presented to uphold the novelty of this work. The first comparison study shows how the proposed system outperforms prior works in the areas of indoor localization and fall detection in terms of the effectiveness of its software design and hardware design. The second comparison study shows that the cost for the development of this system is the least as compared to prior works in these fields, which involved real-world development of the underlining systems, thereby upholding its cost-effective nature.


[100%OFF] Python-Introduction To Data Science And Machine Learning A-Z

#artificialintelligence

Learning how to program in Python is not always easy especially if you want to use it for Data science. Indeed, there are many of different tools that have to be learned to be able to properly use Python for Data science and machine learning and each of those tools is not always easy to learn. Then you will definitely love this course. Not only you will learn all the tools that are used for Data science but you will also improve your Python knowledge and learn to use those tools to be able to visualize your projects. This course is structured in a way that you will be able to to learn each tool separately and practice by programming in python directly with the use of those tools.


Linear Algebra for Machine Learning: Complete Math Course on YouTube -- Jon Krohn

#artificialintelligence

My Machine Learning Foundations curriculum provides a comprehensive overview of all of the subjects -- across mathematics, statistics, and computer science -- that underlie contemporary machine learning approaches. You can check out the full curriculum and all of the open-source Python code (featuring the NumPy, TensorFlow, and PyTorch libraries) in GitHub here. At a high level, my ML Foundations content can be broken into four subject areas: linear algebra, calculus, probability/stats, and computer science. The first quarter of the content, on linear algebra, stands alone as its own discrete course and is now available on YouTube.

Learning Generalized Non-Rigid Multimodal Biomedical Image Registration from Generic Point Set Data

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Free Point Transformer (FPT) has been proposed as a data-driven, non-rigid point set registration approach using deep neural networks. As FPT does not assume constraints based on point vicinity or correspondence, it may be trained simply and in a flexible manner by minimizing an unsupervised loss based on the Chamfer Distance. This makes FPT amenable to real-world medical imaging applications where ground-truth deformations may be infeasible to obtain, or in scenarios where only a varying degree of completeness in the point sets to be aligned is available. To test the limit of the correspondence finding ability of FPT and its dependency on training data sets, this work explores the generalizability of the FPT from well-curated non-medical data sets to medical imaging data sets. First, we train FPT on the ModelNet40 dataset to demonstrate its effectiveness and the superior registration performance of FPT over iterative and learning-based point set registration methods. Second, we demonstrate superior performance in rigid and non-rigid registration and robustness to missing data. Last, we highlight the interesting generalizability of the ModelNet-trained FPT by registering reconstructed freehand ultrasound scans of the spine and generic spine models without additional training, whereby the average difference to the ground truth curvatures is 1.3 degrees, across 13 patients.
