Get hands-on with machine learning with this training bundle

#artificialintelligence

As automation becomes more common, so do the challenges inherent in new technology. The 2022 Complete Learn Coding & Automation Bundle gives you hands-on practice with machine learning, data management, and automation to apply in your daily work. All eight courses in this bundle are taught by working experts in the field, including automation and algorithm expert Frank Kane, experienced technology trainer Joseph Delgadillo, and professor Nouman Azam. All of them work with automation and draw on that personal experience as they design their courses. Each course is also built to be self-paced and to be tapped into for both training and to review as needed.

Axon halts its plans for a Taser drone as 9 on ethics board resign over the project

WASHINGTON -- Axon, the company best known for developing the Taser, said Monday it was halting plans to develop a Taser-equipped drone after a majority of its ethics board resigned over the controversial project. Axon's founder and CEO Rick Smith said the company's announcement last week -- which drew a rebuke from its artificial intelligence ethics board -- was intended to "initiate a conversation on this as a potential solution." Smith said the ensuing discussion "provided us with a deeper appreciation of the complex and important considerations" around the issue.


Learn MLOps with This Free Course - KDnuggets

#artificialintelligence

MLOps stands for machine learning operations. The term MLOps is derived from DevOps (Development Operations). It is used to streamline the machine learning process from development to deployment. The MLOps include training machine learning models, experiment tracking, model optimization, creating ML pipelines, saving and serving models, and monitoring and maintaining models in production. In short, you are automating all the processes from development to deployment, and you are constantly monitoring the logs, metrics, and performance.


AI-Powered Platforms that Detect Plagiarized Content Online Attract Investors

#artificialintelligence

AI-powered plagiarism detection is gaining momentum. Utilizing natural language processing (NLP) technology boosted by machine learning algorithms looks like a smart approach, rather than using the traditional word-for-word match approach to detect plagiarism is what new companies such as Stamford, Connecticut-based Copyleaks are doing. This week, this company announced that it raised $6 million in Series A funding. The financing was led by the Israeli venture capital firm JAL Venture. Copyleaks said that it will use the capital raised "to expand its presence across industries, safeguard its intellectual property, and continue to provide cutting-edge AI solutions," according to a press release.


icor-awards-2022

#artificialintelligence

For the 7th edition of the Prize, a group of academic experts from IÉSEG (composed of 3 professors from IÉSEG: Guillaume Mercier, Caroline Rieu-Plichon and Yulia Titova) evaluated 26 theses in order to select the 3 best ones in terms of academic criteria. The winner of the ICOR Award was then chosen among these three finalists by a jury of professionals, made up this year of Valérie Ader-Plaziat, Senior Advisor in charge of CSR policy at Colombus Consulting, Augustin Boulot, Managing Director of B Lab France and Charles Pick, CSR Director of Clinitex. Presented by Caroline Roussel, Deputy Director of the School, on the occasion of IÉSEG's CSR Day, the ICOR 2022 Award was awarded this year to Julia Guillemot (2021 graduate of the Grande École Program) for her thesis: "The integration of ethical concerns in the development and deployment of artificially intelligent systems within technological companies. Each year, the winner of the ICOR Award receives €2,000 and commits to donate half of his or her prize money to a non-profit organization or social enterprise of his or her choice. This year, Julia Guillemot has chosen to support the Global Schools Program, an initiative of the United Nations. This initiative aims to equip primary and secondary school teachers around the world with content and tools that can be adapted in any country to teach sustainable development to pupils from kindergarten to high school. The ICOR Award ceremony was preceded by a conference organized by ICOR on the theme "New forms of enterprise at the service of society and the environment: idealism or sustainable models?


Lessons From Deploying Deep Learning To Production

#artificialintelligence

When I started my first job out of college, I thought I knew a fair amount about machine learning. I had done two internships at Pinterest and Khan Academy building machine learning systems. I spent my last year at Berkeley doing research in deep learning for computer vision and working on Caffe, one of the first popular deep learning libraries. After I graduated, I joined a small startup called Cruise that was building self-driving cars. Now I'm at Aquarium, where I get to help a multitude of companies deploying deep learning models to solve important problems for society.


A Regret-Variance Trade-Off in Online Learning

arXiv.org Machine Learning

We consider prediction with expert advice for strongly convex and bounded losses, and investigate trade-offs between regret and "variance" (i.e., squared difference of learner's predictions and best expert predictions). With $K$ experts, the Exponentially Weighted Average (EWA) algorithm is known to achieve $O(\log K)$ regret. We prove that a variant of EWA either achieves a negative regret (i.e., the algorithm outperforms the best expert), or guarantees a $O(\log K)$ bound on both variance and regret. Building on this result, we show several examples of how variance of predictions can be exploited in learning. In the online to batch analysis, we show that a large empirical variance allows to stop the online to batch conversion early and outperform the risk of the best predictor in the class. We also recover the optimal rate of model selection aggregation when we do not consider early stopping. In online prediction with corrupted losses, we show that the effect of corruption on the regret can be compensated by a large variance. In online selective sampling, we design an algorithm that samples less when the variance is large, while guaranteeing the optimal regret bound in expectation. In online learning with abstention, we use a similar term as the variance to derive the first high-probability $O(\log K)$ regret bound in this setting. Finally, we extend our results to the setting of online linear regression.
