Modern Deep Learning in Python

#artificialintelligence

Created by Lazy Programmer Inc. English [Auto-generated], Indonesian [Auto-generated], 6 more Created by Lazy Programmer Inc. This course continues where my first course, Deep Learning in Python, left off. You already know how to build an artificial neural network in Python, and you have a plug-and-play script that you can use for TensorFlow. Neural networks are one of the staples of machine learning, and they are always a top contender in Kaggle contests. If you want to improve your skills with neural networks and deep learning, this is the course for you.

PyTorch: Deep Learning and Artificial Intelligence

#artificialintelligence

Created by Lazy Programmer Team, Lazy Programmer Inc. English [Auto-generated] Created by Lazy Programmer Team, Lazy Programmer Inc. Welcome to PyTorch: Deep Learning and Artificial Intelligence! Although Google's Deep Learning library Tensorflow has gained massive popularity over the past few years, PyTorch has been the library of choice for professionals and researchers around the globe for deep learning and artificial intelligence. Is it possible that Tensorflow is popular only because Google is popular and used effective marketing? Why did Tensorflow change so significantly between version 1 and version 2? Was there something deeply flawed with it, and are there still potential problems? It is less well-known that PyTorch is backed by another Internet giant, Facebook (specifically, the Facebook AI Research Lab - FAIR).


Benefits of Incorporating Artificial Intelligence in E-Learning Aiiot Talk

#artificialintelligence

World-renown organizations such as UNESCO, the EU, UNICEF, and other reputable entities can make long-distance formal education more possible. By integrating AI into eLearning platforms, the need for professional teachers is nullified and more students will be able to study effectively. Using AI to fill in for teachers would make the deployment of formal long-distance learning more rapid and efficient. This would make K-12 education in the African, South American, and Asian countries more accessible, viable, and worthwhile.


The work of the future

MIT Technology Review

Editor's Note: In 2020, an MIT Task Force produced a comprehensive report on the Work of the Future. Since then, the global pandemic has had a significant effect on work and businesses, providing the impetus for The Work of the Future, by the same authors. The book, from which the following excerpt is adapted, will be published by MIT Press on January 25, 2022. A decade ago, powerful mobile phones were still a novelty, driverless cars were never seen on public roadways, and computers did not listen to conversations or respond to spoken questions. The possibility of robots taking jobs seemed far off, save for an assembly line or two.


Artificial Intelligence: How Non-Tech Firms Can Benefit

#artificialintelligence

Even though AI continues to thrive and grow, there remain challenges to use the technology. Just some include finding data scientists, determining the right problems to focus on, getting quality data and scaling the models. No doubt, these problems are even worse for non-tech companies. They generally do not have the expertise or sufficient resources to make AI a success. "Research shows non-tech companies in particular have struggled to take their AI programs beyond the proof of concept and pilot phases–with just 21% of retail, 17% of automotive, 6% of manufacturing, and 3% of energy companies successfully scaling their AI use cases," said Jerry Kurtz, who is the Executive Vice President of Insights and Data at Capgemini North America.


AI-Based Teaching Assistant ByteLearn Raises $9.5 Mn; Comes Out Of Stealth Mode

#artificialintelligence

AI-based teaching assistant startup ByteLearn has raised $9.5 Mn in its seed round and came out of its stealth mode. The platform is now open for early access, as per the startup's website. In February 2021, edtech startup Vedantu had acquired the doubt-solving platform InstaSolv to boost its test prep and K-12 tutoring verticals. Two of InstaSolv founders Aditya Singhal and Nishant Sinha took an exit and went on to build a new venture -- ByteLearn. The startup plans to use the funds for product development, global expansion and enhancing technological capabilities.

An overview of active learning methods for insurance with fairness appreciation

arXiv.org Machine Learning

This paper addresses and solves some challenges in the adoption of machine learning in insurance with the democratization of model deployment. The first challenge is reducing the labelling effort (hence focusing on the data quality) with the help of active learning, a feedback loop between the model inference and an oracle: as in insurance the unlabeled data is usually abundant, active learning can become a significant asset in reducing the labelling cost. For that purpose, this paper sketches out various classical active learning methodologies before studying their empirical impact on both synthetic and real datasets. Another key challenge in insurance is the fairness issue in model inferences. We will introduce and integrate a post-processing fairness for multi-class tasks in this active learning framework to solve these two issues. Finally numerical experiments on unfair datasets highlight that the proposed setup presents a good compromise between model precision and fairness.


Weakly Supervised Semantic Segmentation via Alternative Self-Dual Teaching

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Current weakly supervised semantic segmentation (WSSS) frameworks usually contain the separated mask-refinement model and the main semantic region mining model. These approaches would contain redundant feature extraction backbones and biased learning objectives, making them computational complex yet sub-optimal to addressing the WSSS task. To solve this problem, this paper establishes a compact learning framework that embeds the classification and mask-refinement components into a unified deep model. With the shared feature extraction backbone, our model is able to facilitate knowledge sharing between the two components while preserving a low computational complexity. To encourage high-quality knowledge interaction, we propose a novel alternative self-dual teaching (ASDT) mechanism. Unlike the conventional distillation strategy, the knowledge of the two teacher branches in our model is alternatively distilled to the student branch by a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM), which generates PW wave-like selection signal to guide the knowledge distillation process. In this way, the student branch can help prevent the model from falling into local minimum solutions caused by the imperfect knowledge provided of either teacher branch. Comprehensive experiments on the PASCAL VOC 2012 and COCO-Stuff 10K demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed alternative self-dual teaching mechanism as well as the new state-of-the-art performance of our approach.
