SCS Alum Uses Robotics To Address Global Problems One Drone at a Time

CMU School of Computer Science

Imagine flying a small, robotic aircraft from goal post to goal post on an American football field. Now, repeat the flight 470 more times, and you'll match the record-setting 32-mile autonomous drone flight recorded by Aakash Sinha's industry-leading startup based in New Delhi. "It's only the beginning," said Sinha, a 2003 School of Computer Science graduate with a master's degree in robotics. "I'm super excited about how drones can change things, not just here in India but globally." From delivering vaccines in hard-to-reach areas to limiting fossil fuel leaks in expansive pipelines, the possibilities for positive change are endless.


11 Ways to Learn More Data Science

#artificialintelligence

I've been a teacher at many grade levels, and I own a tutoring center that serves kids from age 4 to 18. I've tutored hundreds of students myself over 10 years. I've spent a lot of time trying to teach concepts, to students, peers, friends, direct reports, you name it. I say this because there is one thing that I beg you to listen to, and it's the number one issue I've seen in students at all levels: We just don't know what we don't know. People aren't great at seeing where their own understanding has small gaps. For any topic, we have a few lines of knowledge that we can spout, but we just aren't aware of the edge cases that exist until we see them. We don't have all the knowledge of how every topic intersects with every related one, and many times, those answers are not easy to figure out. Therein lies why experience is valuable. There is so much about even the basic Data Science topics that we haven't yet come across.

Postdoc Position in Immunoinformatics, Machine Learning, Proteomics - SDU, Denmark

#artificialintelligence

We are seeking outstanding candidates with strong analytical and problem-solving skills, who are strong in written and oral communication (in English) and have documented experience in machine learning (in particular deep learning) and bioinformatics. Expertise in handling and understanding protein mass spectrometry data is an advantage, but not a requirement. The successful candidate will participate in independent research projects and assist in the supervision of undergraduate students. The selected candidate will develop a proof-of-concept framework for detecting antibody-derived peptide signatures in proteomics datasets. More specifically, the research project entails the analysis of millions of B-cell receptor sequences by machine learning to determine disease-specific antibody peptides that can be detected in proteomics datasets.

Robust and Resource-Efficient Data-Free Knowledge Distillation by Generative Pseudo Replay

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Data-Free Knowledge Distillation (KD) allows knowledge transfer from a trained neural network (teacher) to a more compact one (student) in the absence of original training data. Existing works use a validation set to monitor the accuracy of the student over real data and report the highest performance throughout the entire process. However, validation data may not be available at distillation time either, making it infeasible to record the student snapshot that achieved the peak accuracy. Therefore, a practical data-free KD method should be robust and ideally provide monotonically increasing student accuracy during distillation. This is challenging because the student experiences knowledge degradation due to the distribution shift of the synthetic data. A straightforward approach to overcome this issue is to store and rehearse the generated samples periodically, which increases the memory footprint and creates privacy concerns. We propose to model the distribution of the previously observed synthetic samples with a generative network. In particular, we design a Variational Autoencoder (VAE) with a training objective that is customized to learn the synthetic data representations optimally. The student is rehearsed by the generative pseudo replay technique, with samples produced by the VAE. Hence knowledge degradation can be prevented without storing any samples. Experiments on image classification benchmarks show that our method optimizes the expected value of the distilled model accuracy while eliminating the large memory overhead incurred by the sample-storing methods.


How AI, VR, AR, 5G, and blockchain may converge to power the metaverse

#artificialintelligence

Emerging technologies including AI, virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), 5G, and blockchain (and related digital currencies) have all progressed on their own merits and timeline. Each has found a degree of application, though clearly AI has progressed the furthest. Each technology is maturing while overcoming challenges ranging from blockchain's energy consumption to VR's propensity for inducing nausea. They will likely converge in readiness over the next several years, underpinned by the now ubiquitous cloud computing for elasticity and scale. And in that convergence, the sum will be far greater than the parts.

Artificial Intelligence 2018: Build the Most Powerful AI

#artificialintelligence

Learn, build and implement the most powerful AI model at home. Two months ago we discovered that a very new kind of AI was invented. The kind of AI which is based on a genius idea and that you can build from scratch and without the need for any framework. We checked that out, we built it, and... the results are absolutely insane! This game-changing AI called Augmented Random Search, ARS for short.
