NSF leads federal effort to boost advanced wireless research - Artificial Intelligence Online

#artificialintelligence

Today, the National Science Foundation (NSF) announced that it will invest more than 400 million over the next seven years to support fundamental wireless research and to develop platforms for advanced wireless research in support of the White House's Advanced Wireless Research Initiative. These investments will support the research community in experimenting with and testing novel technologies, applications and services capable of making wireless communication faster, smarter, more responsive and more robust. In the last decade, wireless usage across the U.S. has expanded dramatically, with nearly 350 million smartphones, connected tablets and wearable devices in use -- more than double the number from a decade ago -- carrying more than 100,000 times the traffic they supported in 2008. Experts anticipate as many as 200 billion connected devices globally by 2020. The need for ultra-high-speed, high-bandwidth and low-latency (rapid-response) wireless connectivity will only increase.


Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in Big Data and IoT: AI Powered Predictive Analytics Market Will Reach 18.5 Billion by 2021 - Research and Markets

#artificialintelligence

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in Big Data and IoT: The Market for Data Capture, Analytics, and Decision Making 2016 - 2021" report to their offering. More than 50% of enterprise IT organizations are experimenting with Artificial Intelligence (AI) in various forms such as Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Computer Vision, Image Recognition, Voice Recognition, Artificial Neural Networks, and more. AI is not a single technology but a convergence of various technologies, statistical models, algorithms, and approaches. Machine Learning is a sub-field of computer science that evolved from the study of pattern recognition and computational learning theory in AI. Every large corporation collects and maintains a huge amount of human-oriented data associated with its customers including their preferences, purchases, habits, and other personal information.


Microsoft opts out of Gamescom 2016 press conference in favour of small fan event

Nasa has announced that it has found evidence of flowing water on Mars. Scientists have long speculated that Recurring Slope Lineae -- or dark patches -- on Mars were made up of briny water but the new findings prove that those patches are caused by liquid water, which it has established by finding hydrated salts. Several hundred camped outside the London store in Covent Garden. The 6s will have new features like a vastly improved camera and a pressure-sensitive "3D Touch" display

Baymax is superbly convenient for the '140 characters' lifestyle of today."


Artificial Intelligence System and Human Partnership Achieves Nearly Perfect Accuracy in Breast Cancer Detection by Ampronix

#artificialintelligence

At the International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging in Prague, a Harvard-based artificial intelligence system won the Camelyon16 challenge, a competition comprised of participants introducing their individual AI systems and its ability to facilitate automated lymph node metastasis diagnosis. Referred to as PathAl, the computing system identifies cancerous cells through a mechanism referred to as deep learning--an algorithmic technique that accumulates copious amounts of unstructured data and organizes it into clusters, before analyzing it for patterns. Deep learning is predominately utilized in speech recognition systems like Apple's Siri and Microsoft's Cortana. According to one of the challenge's organizers, Jeroen van der Laak of Radboud University Medical Center in Netherlands, the technology featured in the competition went "way beyond" his expectations, as the AI's accuracy proved strikingly close to that of human beings. In addition, van der Laak said AI technology has the propensity to intrinsically redefine the way histopathological images are handled in the medical community.


Y Combinator-backed Mosaic connects wearables, Internet of Things

#artificialintelligence

Internet of Things (IoT) bot maker Mosaic announced today that it has been selected for the Y Combinator summer program and has released a new beta version of its assistant on Amazon Alexa, Slack, SMS, and Facebook Messenger. Mosaic connects a single chatbot to more than a dozen wearables and IoT devices, ranging from lightbulbs to Tesla cars. Essentially, the chatbot takes all the data we compile in our personal lives and helps us make sense of it. Mosaic wants to give people advice based on all the data accumulated by wearables and internet-connected devices and can also explain things like water usage and how to get energy. In the future, Mosaic wants your fitness wearable to talk to you about personal fitness challenges, make sure you're getting enough sleep, and tell you when you need to exercise "This is definitely on our roadmap and one of the most interesting things we're going to do," said cofounder Sumang Liu.


NLP Logix Receives Recognition for Developing a Machine Learning Model that Helps Identify and Classify Cancer Cells

#artificialintelligence

Computer-aided algorithms are helping pathologists more efficiently and accurately identify cancer stages to deliver targeted treatment. Jacksonville-based advanced data analytics and machine learning solutions company NLP Logix continues to lead the way in the emerging field of computer vision, receiving recognition as the only United States team to deliver a top-winning solution in an international competition to develop a machine learning model that can help identify and treat cancer cells by stage level. NLP Logix recently earned a top-three finish position in the HER2 Challenge, an academic research competition sponsored by the University of Warwick's Department of Computer Science. More than 100 data science teams worldwide competed in the challenge which asked applicants to create algorithms to automate "scoring" of large-file images of stained slides of breast cancer cells based on the aggressiveness of the cancer. The method is used to detect the presence of the gene for HER2, a transmembrane growth factor receptor which is found in about 20 percent of cases of invasive cancer.
