Questionnaires in the behavioral and organizational sciences tend to be lengthy: survey measures comprising hundreds of items are the norm rather than the exception. However, recent literature suggests that the longer a questionnaire takes, the higher the probability that participants lose interest and start responding carelessly. Consequently, in long surveys a large number of participants may engage in careless responding, posing a major threat to internal validity. We propose a novel method to identify the onset of careless responding (or an absence thereof) for each participant. Specifically, our method is based on combined measurements of up to three dimensions in which carelessness may manifest (inconsistency, invariability, fast responding). Since a structural break in either dimension is potentially indicative of carelessness, our method searches for evidence for changepoints along the three dimensions. Our method is highly flexible, based on machine learning, and provides statistical guarantees on its performance. In simulation experiments, we find that it achieves high reliability in correctly identifying carelessness onset, discriminates well between careless and attentive respondents, and can capture a wide variety of careless response styles, even in datasets with an overwhelming presence of carelessness. In addition, we empirically validate our method on a Big 5 measurement. Furthermore, we provide freely available software in R to enhance accessibility and adoption by empirical researchers.

Generative AI techniques like ChatGPT, DALL-e and Codex can generate digital content such as images, text, and the code. Recent progress in large-scale AI models has improved generative AI's ability to understand intent and generate more realistic content. In recent years, Artificial Intelligence Generated Content (AIGC) has gained much attention beyond the computer science community, where the whole society is interested in the various content generation products built by large tech companies. Technically, AIGC refers to, given human instructions which could help teach and guide the model to complete the task, using Generative AI algorithms to form a content that satisfies the instruction. This generation process usually comprises two steps: extracting intent information from human instructions and generating content according to the extracted intentions.

While some districts have already blocked access to the artificial intelligence chatbot, some educators have advised against knee-jerk reactions. Since ChatGPT launched Nov. 30, the artificial intelligence technology has sparked concerns about the potential impact on education, including students' use of the technology to plagiarize schoolwork. Districts that have already blocked access to ChatGPT include New York City Public Schools, Los Angeles Unified School District and Virginia's Fairfax County Public Schools, according to Forbes. The chatbot, created by San Francisco-based OpenAI, generates human-like responses based on prompts given by users. The free research preview of ChatGPT can be used for anything from explaining quantum computing in simple terms to gathering creative ideas for a 10-year-old's birthday, as well as writing essays, poems, cover letters and even movie scripts.

Machine learning has become one of the most popular fields of study in recent years, and it's not hard to see why. With the rise of big data and the increasing importance of artificial intelligence in various industries, machine learning is a valuable skill set to possess. However, it can be overwhelming to know where to start and how to progress in this field. In this blog, we will provide you with a comprehensive roadmap to machine learning, complete with step-by-step guidance and valuable resources to help you along the way. Before diving into machine learning, it is crucial to understand the fundamentals of data science.

Welcome to the "Artificial Intelligence with Machine Learning, Deep Learning " course. It's hard to imagine our lives without machine learning.

AI is the digital distillation of a technological revolution that is facilitating the long-overdue evolution of the human mind. AI, as fear-inducing as anything disruptive and new is, can galvanise, turbo-charge, and trigger new avenues of intelligence in human minds. These new avenues can enable us to understand and attack society's greatest challenges today. What a layman does not know is that AI can traditionally be divided into AGI and ANI. Theorists and AI experts call this Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and Artificial Narrow Intelligence (ANI). AGI is designed to be capable of performing a wide variety of intellectual tasks, while ANI is designed to perform a single or a narrow set of related tasks.

Haptic training simulators generally consist of three major components, namely a human operator, a haptic interface, and a virtual environment. Appropriate dynamic modeling of each of these components can have far-reaching implications for the whole system's performance improvement in terms of transparency, the analogy to the real environment, and stability. In this paper, we developed a virtual-based haptic training simulator for Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (ESS) by doing a dynamic characterization of the phenomenological sinus tissue fracture in the virtual environment, using an input-constrained linear parametric variable model. A parallel robot manipulator equipped with a calibrated force sensor is employed as a haptic interface. A lumped five-parameter single-degree-of-freedom mass-stiffness-damping impedance model is assigned to the operator's arm dynamic. A robust online output feedback quasi-min-max model predictive control (MPC) framework is proposed to stabilize the system during the switching between the piecewise linear dynamics of the virtual environment. The simulations and the experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control algorithm in terms of robustness and convergence to the desired impedance quantities.

Federated learning is a recent development in the machine learning area that allows a system of devices to train on one or more tasks without sharing their data to a single location or device. However, this framework still requires a centralized global model to consolidate individual models into one, and the devices train synchronously, which both can be potential bottlenecks for using federated learning. In this paper, we propose a novel method of asynchronous decentralized federated lifelong learning (ADFLL) method that inherits the merits of federated learning and can train on multiple tasks simultaneously without the need for a central node or synchronous training. Thus, overcoming the potential drawbacks of conventional federated learning. We demonstrate excellent performance on the brain tumor segmentation (BRATS) dataset for localizing the left ventricle on multiple image sequences and image orientation. Our framework allows agents to achieve the best performance with a mean distance error of 7.81, better than the conventional all-knowing agent's mean distance error of 11.78, and significantly (p=0.01) better than a conventional lifelong learning agent with a distance error of 15.17 after eight rounds of training. In addition, all ADFLL agents have comparable or better performance than a conventional LL agent. In conclusion, we developed an ADFLL framework with excellent performance and speed-up compared to conventional RL agents.
