Tiny Machine Learning Development Board Now Available for Building Low-Power Voice, Audio and Sensor Applications using Edge Impulse's Embedded ML Platform IRVINE, Calif., Sept. 29, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Syntiant Corp, a provider of deep learning solutions making edge AI a reality for always-on applications in battery-powered devices, today unveiled its TinyML Development Board, an easy-to-use developer kit aimed at both technical and non-technical users for building machine learning-powered applications in smart products, such as speech commands, wake word detection, acoustic event detection and other sensor use cases. Equipped with the ultra-low-power Syntiant NDP101 Neural Decision Processor, the TinyML board can enable speech and sensor applications to run at under 140 and 100 microwatts, respectively, delivering 20x more throughput and 200x efficiency improvement compared to traditional MCU-based systems. Sized at 24 mm x 28 mm, the Syntiant TinyML board is a small, self-contained system that allows trained models to be easily downloaded via Edge Impulse through a micro-USB connection without the need for any specialized hardware. The new board also is fully compatible with Arduino's open-source platform. "Syntiant's TinyML board is another example of how we are advancing AI pervasiveness by moving machine learning from the cloud to the edge," said Kurt Busch, CEO of Syntiant.

From October 5 to 10, 2021, the KIT Science Week will celebrate its premiere. Researchers from all over the world, actors from politics and industry, and citizens from Karlsruhe and the region are invited to immerse into the world of artificial intelligence, AI for short. This new type of event of Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) will offer diverse access to AI and open rooms for discourse. KIT, for its part, will receive impetus for its research agenda. All these are learning systems that increasingly enter our lives. From October 5 to 10, 2021, the KIT Science Week will give experts from science, industry, politics, and culture, and in particular the interested public the opportunity to exchange ideas and opinions.

Scientific discovery concerns finding patterns in data and creating insightful hypotheses that explain these patterns. Traditionally, this process required human ingenuity, but with the galloping advances in artificial intelligence (AI) it becomes feasible to automate some parts of scientific discovery. In this work we leverage AI for strategy discovery for understanding human planning. In the state-of-the-art methods data about the process of human planning is often used to group similar behaviors together and formulate verbal descriptions of the strategies which might underlie those groups. Here, we automate these two steps. Our algorithm, called Human-Interpret, uses imitation learning to describe process-tracing data collected in psychological experiments with the Mouselab-MDP paradigm in terms of a procedural formula. Then, it translates that formula to natural language using a pre-defined predicate dictionary. We test our method on a benchmark data set that researchers have previously scrutinized manually. We find that the descriptions of human planning strategies obtained automatically are about as understandable as human-generated descriptions. They also cover a substantial proportion of all types of human planning strategies that had been discovered manually. Our method saves scientists' time and effort as all the reasoning about human planning is done automatically. This might make it feasible to more rapidly scale up the search for yet undiscovered cognitive strategies to many new decision environments, populations, tasks, and domains. Given these results, we believe that the presented work may accelerate scientific discovery in psychology, and due to its generality, extend to problems from other fields.

Decades of research has studied how language learning infants learn to discriminate speech sounds, segment words, and associate words with their meanings. While gradual development of such capabilities is unquestionable, the exact nature of these skills and the underlying mental representations yet remains unclear. In parallel, computational studies have shown that basic comprehension of speech can be achieved by statistical learning between speech and concurrent referentially ambiguous visual input. These models can operate without prior linguistic knowledge such as representations of linguistic units, and without learning mechanisms specifically targeted at such units. This has raised the question of to what extent knowledge of linguistic units, such as phone(me)s, syllables, and words, could actually emerge as latent representations supporting the translation between speech and representations in other modalities, and without the units being proximal learning targets for the learner. In this study, we formulate this idea as the so-called latent language hypothesis (LLH), connecting linguistic representation learning to general predictive processing within and across sensory modalities. We review the extent that the audiovisual aspect of LLH is supported by the existing computational studies. We then explore LLH further in extensive learning simulations with different neural network models for audiovisual cross-situational learning, and comparing learning from both synthetic and real speech data. We investigate whether the latent representations learned by the networks reflect phonetic, syllabic, or lexical structure of input speech by utilizing an array of complementary evaluation metrics related to linguistic selectivity and temporal characteristics of the representations. As a result, we find that representations associated...

The online meta-learning framework has arisen as a powerful tool for the continual lifelong learning setting. The goal for an agent is to quickly learn new tasks by drawing on prior experience, while it faces with tasks one after another. This formulation involves two levels: outer level which learns meta-learners and inner level which learns task-specific models, with only a small amount of data from the current task. While existing methods provide static regret analysis for the online meta-learning framework, we establish performance in terms of dynamic regret which handles changing environments from a global prospective. We also build off of a generalized version of the adaptive gradient methods that covers both ADAM and ADAGRAD to learn meta-learners in the outer level. We carry out our analyses in a stochastic setting, and in expectation prove a logarithmic local dynamic regret which depends explicitly on the total number of iterations T and parameters of the learner. Apart from, we also indicate high probability bounds on the convergence rates of proposed algorithm with appropriate selection of parameters, which have not been argued before.

OAK HILL, W.Va. (WVVA) English, Math, and Science are all subjects you probably took in school. But now, there is another subject becoming increasingly relevant in today's schools and workforce called'coding.' Coding is the process of creating instructions for computers. For the last two years, educators have received a special grant from WVU to help with instruction on the subject. During Tuesday's class, the Kindergarten students learned to make robots move through typing in commands on their I-Pad. According to Assistant Principal Marsha Bishop, the program not only prepares children for careers in technology, but gives them valuable experience in problem solving.

"The events from this year and last have shown how fragile our global food system really is," said Fotis Fotiadis, CEO and co-founder of Better Origin, the UK-based insect mini-farm. Detailing the current food security outlook in Europe, Fotiadis relayed: " While we are still trying to digest how the pandemic has affected our global food supply chain, it is becoming more evident that we cannot rely solely on imported food products." The food industry currently places reliance of our animal feed sector on soy, most of which comes from South America. "A disturbance in the global soy supply chain can, therefore, have a dramatic impact on livestock production in the UK and EU," Fotiadis observed. The solution can be found in technologies that are being developed that allow for food and feed products to be grown locally.
