The challenge is that the math behind it is somewhat complicated, and that it has to be run, over and over, across vast quantities of data to suss out the statistical weights and biases of a particular system. The work will get done; it might just take a long time. Data scientists and machine learning researchers have long used graphics processing units (GPUs) because of their highly parallelized architecture and relatively abundant on-chip memory available. But as industry and research groups alike seek more efficiency and need to accommodate ever-larger quantities of information, more specialized computing hardware is required for the task. Headquartered in Bristol, U.K., Graphcore is in the business of producing silicon purpose-built for munching through machine-learning math at high rates of speed and using less electricity than GPUs. Benchmarks for Graphcore's Intelligence Processing Unit (IPU) state that it offers notably less latency and higher computational throughput, and uses less power than GPUs.

Southwest Research Institute, a leading innovator of machine learning technologies, has developed a motion prediction system that enhances pedestrian detection for automated vehicles. The computer vision tool uses a novel deep learning algorithm to predict motion by observing real-time biomechanical movements with the pelvic area being a key indicator for changes. "For instance, if a pedestrian is walking west, the system can predict if that person will suddenly turn south," said SwRI's Samuel E. Slocum, a senior research analyst who led the internally funded project. "As the push for automated vehicles accelerates, this research offers several important safety features to help protect pedestrians." Recent accidents involving automated vehicles have heightened the call for improved detection of pedestrians and other moving obstacles.

The Department of Computer Science at Aalborg University's Technical Faculty of IT and Design is looking to appoint a number of Assistant Professors (tenure-track) for its new group at the university's Copenhagen Campus, commencing September 1, 2020 or soon thereafter. In 2020, the Department of Computer Science will begin building a new research group at Aalborg University's Copenhagen Campus. The group will be responsible for the newly approved bachelor's and master's educations in "Software" and will over time build its own research profile and capacity. The Copenhagen group will build upon, and contribute to the Department's broad range of synergistic activities within research and education in the general area of computer science, including curiosity-driven research and targeted research in collaboration with industrial partners, as well as traditional university education, with a unique problem- and project-based focus, and continued education and knowledge dissemination. As Assistant Professor in Computer Science at the Copenhagen Campus you are expected to deliver teaching of an international standard on the new Software education commencing in September 2020.

HeartVista, a pioneer in AI-assisted MRI solutions, announced the formation of its Medical and Scientific Advisory Board, including notable thought leaders from Stanford University and the University of Wisconsin. "The past year was an inflection point for HeartVista, which was full of significant milestones as we received FDA 510(k) clearance for our AI-assisted One Click Cardiac Package," said Itamar Kandel, CEO of HeartVista. "This year, we will continue to progress our MRI software platform and expand its use across additional radiology centers within the US and globally. Our Medical and Scientific Advisory Board will provide strategic direction to our leadership team, enabling us to continue advancing the MRI field." "Automated, AI-driven prescription, as pioneered by HeartVista will change the way we perform advanced MRI exams, by dramatically reducing exam time, standardizing acquisitions, reducing error and rework, and ultimately improve the patient experience," said Dr. Scott Reeder, Vice Chair of Research and Chief of MRI, University of Wisconsin School of Medicine.

Jefferson Lab is hosting an A.I. Hack-A-Thon for those interested in learning about artificial intelligence. The purpose is to generate interest in A.I. in the field of nuclear physics by giving participants a free, hands on experience, according to the news release. The event is free and open to the public. The deadline to register is Friday. "The last 10 years have seen explosive growth in the field of A.I." according to the news release.

The main pillar of the plan is focused on accelerating Mexico's digital transformation through democratizing the access to technology. The company announced plans to establish a new cloud datacenter region in Mexico to deliver its intelligent and trusted cloud services to serve Mexico's public entities, organizations and Mexican society, including Microsoft Azure, Office 365, Dynamics 365 and the Power Platform. This datacenter region is an important part of Microsoft's $1.1 billion investment plan in Mexico over the next five years. The plan also includes a robust education and skilling program with different initiatives the first one being the creation of three laboratories and a virtual classroom, in collaboration with public universities to create an education platform for digital skills, to expand employability in future generations. The first initiative of the commitment to apply artificial intelligence to create societal impact is an investment in the project "Artificial Intelligence to Monitor Pelagic Sharks in the Mexican Pacific Ocean" (Shark ID), focused on the conservation of Mako shark species, driven by Mexico Azul, as part of the initiative AI for Earth, creating societal impact.
