Workday's Sayan Chakraborty: Why Machine Learning Will Change the Way We Work - Workday Blog

#artificialintelligence

He and his team have played a key part in weaving ML into the very fabric of Workday's underlying platform, which is critical to delivering compelling experiences and outcomes without customers even needing to realize it is there. Earlier in his career, while at a number of Silicon Valley companies, he played a part in making the technology we rely on everyday--GPS, and wifi, for example--so ubiquitous that most of us take these revolutionary technologies for granted. Chakraborty also co-founded and served as chief operating officer at GridCraft, a company that developed simple-to-use data analytics tools that Workday acquired in 2015. Now, as senior vice president of tools and technology at Workday, Chakraborty is responsible for the infrastructure on which our applications are built. In particular, he's leading the charge to make sure that machine learning helps customers make faster, better decisions using all of Workday's products.


Deep learning method transforms shapes

#artificialintelligence

Called LOGAN, the deep neural network, i.e., a machine of sorts, can learn to transform the shapes of two different objects, for example, a chair and a table, in a natural way, without seeing any paired transforms between the shapes. All the machine had seen was a bunch of tables and a bunch of chairs, and it could automatically translate shapes between the two unpaired domains. LOGAN can also automatically perform both content and style transfers between two different types of shapes without any changes to its network architecture. The team of researchers behind LOGAN, from Simon Fraser University, Shenzhen University, and Tel Aviv University, are set to present their work at ACM SIGGRAPH Asia held Nov. 17 to 20 in Brisbane, Australia. SIGGRAPH Asia, now in its 12th year, attracts the most respected technical and creative people from around the world in computer graphics, animation, interactivity, gaming, and emerging technologies. "Shape transform is one of the most fundamental and frequently encountered problems in computer graphics and geometric modeling," says senior coauthor of the work, Hao (Richard) Zhang, professor of computing science at Simon Fraser University.


How can AI Automate End-to-End Data Science?

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Data science is labor-intensive and human experts are scarce but heavily involved in every aspect of it. This makes data science time consuming and restricted to experts with the resulting quality heavily dependent on their experience and skills. To make data science more accessible and scalable, we need its democratization. Automated Data Science (AutoDS) is aimed towards that goal and is emerging as an important research and business topic. We introduce and define the AutoDS challenge, followed by a proposal of a general AutoDS framework that covers existing approaches but also provides guidance for the development of new methods. We categorize and review the existing literature from multiple aspects of the problem setup and employed techniques. Then we provide several views on how AI could succeed in automating end-to-end AutoDS. We hope this survey can serve as insightful guideline for the AutoDS field and provide inspiration for future research.


Challenges in Bayesian inference via Markov chain Monte Carlo for neural networks

arXiv.org Machine Learning

Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods and neural networks are instrumental in tackling inferential and prediction problems. However, Bayesian inference based on joint use of MCMC methods and of neural networks is limited. This paper reviews the main challenges posed by neural networks to MCMC developments, including lack of parameter identifiability due to weight symmetries, prior specification effects, and consequently high computational cost and convergence failure. Population and manifold MCMC algorithms are combined to demonstrate these challenges via multilayer perceptron (MLP) examples and to develop case studies for assessing the capacity of approximate inference methods to uncover the posterior covariance of neural network parameters. Some of these challenges, such as high computational cost arising from the application of neural networks to big data and parameter identifiability arising from weight symmetries, stimulate research towards more scalable approximate MCMC methods or towards MCMC methods in reduced parameter spaces.


Suicidal Ideation Detection: A Review of Machine Learning Methods and Applications

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Suicide is a critical issue in the modern society. Early detection and prevention of suicide attempt should be addressed to save people's life. Current suicidal ideation detection methods include clinical methods based on the interaction between social workers or experts and the targeted individuals, and machine learning techniques with feature engineering or deep learning for automatic detection based on online social contents. This is the first survey that comprehensively introduces and discusses the methods from these categories. Domain-specific applications of suicidal ideation detection are also reviewed according to their data sources, i.e., questionnaires, electronic health records, suicide notes, and online user content. To facilitate further research, several specific tasks and datasets are introduced. Finally, we summarize the limitations of current work and provide an outlook of further research directions.

School of Information Technology, Deakin University, Geelong, Australia Robots are increasingly tested in public spaces, towards a f uture where urban environments are not only for humans but for autonomous syst ems. While robots are promising, for convenience and efficiency, there are challenges associated with building cities crowded with machines. This p aper provides an overview of the problems and some solutions, and calls for gr eater attention on this matter . Urban environments will increasingly be spaces for autonom ous systems, of which automated vehicles is only one popular type. Robot wheelchairs could be used in public as well other robot -transporters to help the elderly.


Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI): Concepts, Taxonomies, Opportunities and Challenges toward Responsible AI

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

In the last years, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has achieved a notable momentum that may deliver the best of expectations over many application sectors across the field. For this to occur, the entire community stands in front of the barrier of explainability, an inherent problem of AI techniques brought by sub-symbolism (e.g. ensembles or Deep Neural Networks) that were not present in the last hype of AI. Paradigms underlying this problem fall within the so-called eXplainable AI (XAI) field, which is acknowledged as a crucial feature for the practical deployment of AI models. This overview examines the existing literature in the field of XAI, including a prospect toward what is yet to be reached. We summarize previous efforts to define explainability in Machine Learning, establishing a novel definition that covers prior conceptual propositions with a major focus on the audience for which explainability is sought. We then propose and discuss about a taxonomy of recent contributions related to the explainability of different Machine Learning models, including those aimed at Deep Learning methods for which a second taxonomy is built. This literature analysis serves as the background for a series of challenges faced by XAI, such as the crossroads between data fusion and explainability. Our prospects lead toward the concept of Responsible Artificial Intelligence, namely, a methodology for the large-scale implementation of AI methods in real organizations with fairness, model explainability and accountability at its core. Our ultimate goal is to provide newcomers to XAI with a reference material in order to stimulate future research advances, but also to encourage experts and professionals from other disciplines to embrace the benefits of AI in their activity sectors, without any prior bias for its lack of interpretability.


Why Innovation is a Necessity for Software based Product and Service Companies

#artificialintelligence

The rapid rate of change enabled by software make this industry more vulnerable than most to the falling behind on the innovation curve. This problem has only accelerated in recent years as the number of disruptive technologies have grown at an exponential rate fueled by the growing size of the market and the number of software engineers. The open source community has been a driving source of disruptive technologies such as big data Hadoop and Spark, JavaScript frameworks like Angular and React, and machine learning frameworks like TensorFlow. Software based companies who do not embrace these disruptive technologies face the ever-increasing risk of being pushed aside by those that do. To make this even more challenging, the skills required to enhance the current product and the skills required to innovate using new disruptive technologies are different.


Universal flow approximation with deep residual networks

arXiv.org Machine Learning

Since then, they have received continuously growing attention. ResNets have a recursive structure x k 1 x k R k( x k) where R k is a neural network and the copying of the input x k is called a skip connection. This structure can be seen as the explicit Euler discretisation of an associated ordinary differential equation (ODE) and this inspired intensive research. However, all of those works only consider the connection of ResNets to a relatively small class of ODEs. We show that by simultaneously increasing the number of skip connection as well as the expressivity of the networks R k the flow for an arbitrary right hand side f L 1 null I; C 0, 1 b (R d; R d)null can be approximated uniformly by deep ReLU ResNets on compact sets. Further, we derive estimates on the number of parameters needed to do this up to a prescribed accuracy under temporal regularity assumptions. We also give a self-contained introduction to the preliminaries regarding neural networks and differential equations. Here, we give an elementary proof for a quantitative universal approximation theorem for deep ReLU networks and see that weak ODEs with right hand side in L 1null I; C 0, 1 b (R d; R d)null are globally well posed. Finally, we discuss the possibility of using ResNets for diffeomorphic matching problems and propose some next steps in the theoretical foundation of this approach.
