Announcing The Launch of Helio
CircleUp exists to help promising entrepreneurs raise capital and sophisticated investors invest in breakthrough brands with confidence and efficiency on both sides. Since we opened our doors in 2012 we've been challenging private equity norms by revolutionizing manual company sourcing and vetting with a technology-driven private marketplace. The ability to standardize and extract deep insights from large data sets has long been core to CircleUp's approach. Early last year, we introduced The Classifier, which analyzes each company that applies to CircleUp based on an average of 90,000 data points. Helio proactively collects billions of data points on over 1.2 million consumer and retail companies in the U.S. to analyze the relative strength of each company across key metrics.
Toyota Research Institute Delivers Silicon Valley Community a Hands-On Experience of Future Mobility
What is it like to compete in a car race that isn't about speed, but rather fuel efficiency? As more than 100 people found out on March 3 at the Sonoma Raceway: really fun. A broad cross-section of the Silicon Valley community participated in Toyota Onramp 2017, an annual event hosted by Toyota Research Institute (TRI). The cornerstone of the event was the Prius Challenge, where the teams competed to see how efficiently they could drive nine laps at Sonoma Raceway. The competition also featured a special guest, Toyota Chairman of the Board Takeshi Uchiyamada.

Tenn. teacher cracks Adobe code, wins software
Powell High School teacher Jimmy Waters stands in front of the San Jose Semaphore in California. Waters cracked a code broadcast by the building that had been unsolved for more than four years. Jimmy Waters, 31, teaches advanced algebra, geometry and trigonometry at Powell High School. Last summer, Waters devoted a month of his vacation time to solving the puzzle presented by the San Jose Semaphore, a project created by New York-based artist Ben Rubin in 2006. Adobe planned on rewarding Waters with a one-year subscription to its Creative Cloud software, but at his request, the company is donating 40 one-year subscriptions to Powell High School's computer lab, on top of a 3-D printer "to help the students push the boundaries of creativity even further," according to a company news release.
Global Neural Network Software Market (2016-2022) - Key Companies are IBM, Microsoft, HP Enterprise, Google, Oracle. SAP, Qualcomm & Intel - Research and Markets
Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Neural Network Software Market (2016-2022)" report to their offering. Neural network software is used in stimulating, researching, developing, and applying artificial neural networks to a wide array of adaptive systems such as artificial intelligence and machine learning. Neural network simulators are software applications used in stimulating the behavior of artificial or biological neural networks, with a focus on one or a limited number of specific types of neural networks. The most common type of neural network software historically was use in researching neural network structures and algorithms. The neural network software market is witnessing rapid growth due to increasing need for data archiving tools in order to organize the data generated from varied end user sectors.

Pentaho Ends Machine Learning Gridlock
Pentaho helps data scientists and engineers easily prepare and blend traditional sources like ERP, EAM and big data sources like sensors and social media. Pentaho also accelerates the notoriously difficult and costly task of feature engineering by automating data onboarding, data transformation and data validation in an easy-to-use drag and drop environment. Model training, tuning and testing -- Data scientists often apply trial and error to strike the right balance of complexity, performance and accuracy in their models. With integrations for languages like R and Python, and for machine learning packages like Spark MLlib and Weka, Pentaho allows data scientists to seamlessly train, tune, build and test models faster. Model deployment and operationalization -- a completely trained, tuned and tested machine learning model still needs to be deployed.

Intel Acquiring Mobileye For More Than $15B In Major Move Into Automated Driving
Brian Krzanich, CEO of Intel, Harald Krueger, CEO of German car maker BMW and Amnon Shashua, co-founder, chairman and CTO Mobileye NV, pose after a press conference in Munich on July 1, 2016. As the automotive industry races to commercialize automated driving by the turn of the decade, the number of real power players in the space is rapidly consolidating. The latest move is Intel's acquisition of Israeli machine vision leader Mobileye for $15.3 billion. If completed, the deal may finally put Intel in a strong position in a new market after it has struggled in recent years to break into new new territory beyond its deteriorating stronghold in PC chips. Founded 1999, Mobileye is the undisputed global market leader for the image processing systems that are increasingly becoming standard equipment on new vehicles and will be essential to making self-driving vehicles work.
