Autonomous learning and chaining of motor primitives using the Free Energy Principle

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

In this article, we apply the Free-Energy Principle to the question of motor primitives learning. An echo-state network is used to generate motor trajectories. We combine this network with a perception module and a controller that can influence its dynamics. This new compound network permits the autonomous learning of a repertoire of motor trajectories. To evaluate the repertoires built with our method, we exploit them in a handwriting task where primitives are chained to produce long-range sequences.


Commonsense Evidence Generation and Injection in Reading Comprehension

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Human tackle reading comprehension not only based on the given context itself but often rely on the commonsense beyond. To empower the machine with commonsense reasoning, in this paper, we propose a Commonsense Evidence Generation and Injection framework in reading comprehension, named CEGI. The framework injects two kinds of auxiliary commonsense evidence into comprehensive reading to equip the machine with the ability of rational thinking. Specifically, we build two evidence generators: the first generator aims to generate textual evidence via a language model; the other generator aims to extract factual evidence (automatically aligned text-triples) from a commonsense knowledge graph after graph completion. Those evidences incorporate contextual commonsense and serve as the additional inputs to the model. Thereafter, we propose a deep contextual encoder to extract semantic relationships among the paragraph, question, option, and evidence. Finally, we employ a capsule network to extract different linguistic units (word and phrase) from the relations, and dynamically predict the optimal option based on the extracted units. Experiments on the CosmosQA dataset demonstrate that the proposed CEGI model outperforms the current state-of-the-art approaches and achieves the accuracy (83.6%) on the leaderboard.


r/artificial - Recommendation on Self-Teaching Math, AI, Data Science in 14 months

#artificialintelligence

On Linear Algebra, it's rather rusty as it was a sudden leap into proof-heavy classes, so I didn't quite get what was going on most of the time. I have gone through an intro class on ML and Optimization as well (Rather superficial concepts without much exercises). I am going through a gap year - don't wanna be paying a hefty amount for zoom-classes next study year - so will be class-free for approximately 14 months. Personally aiming to devote 5 hours a day, 6 days a week.

Improving The Performance Of The K-means Algorithm

arXiv.org Machine Learning

The Incremental K-means (IKM), an improved version of K-means (KM), was introduced to improve the clustering quality of KM significantly. However, the speed of IKM is slower than KM. My thesis proposes two algorithms to speed up IKM while remaining the quality of its clustering result approximately. The first algorithm, called Divisive K-means, improves the speed of IKM by speeding up its splitting process of clusters. Testing with UCI Machine Learning data sets, the new algorithm achieves the empirically global optimum as IKM and has lower complexity, $O(k*log_{2}k*n)$, than IKM, $O(k^{2}n)$. The second algorithm, called Parallel Two-Phase K-means (Par2PK-means), parallelizes IKM by employing the model of Two-Phase K-means. Testing with large data sets, this algorithm attains a good speedup ratio, closing to the linearly speed-up ratio.

IIT Roorkee to conduct webinar talking about careers in AI, machine learning

#artificialintelligence

In an endeavour to upskill the youth and promote e-learning during the COVID-19 lockdown, IIT Roorkee had launched an Advanced Certification Course on Deep Learning at Cloudxlab.com. It is an advanced course on deep learning and would cover cutting edge techniques applicable to audio processing, image processing, video processing, self-driving cars etc. This came in the wake of the current economic crisis which underscores the significance of technical skills to tackle the global slowdown. Further to the launch IIT Roorkee and CloudxLab will conduct a webinar on careers in AI and machine learning. The webinar will include faculty members from IIT Roorkee as well as members of the industry.

A new instructional video series from Google: machine learning foundations

#artificialintelligence

The young journalists at YR Media (formerly Youth Radio) were curious about "what artificial intelligence means for race, art, and the apocalypse." So they asked the opinion of a a few experts, including tech journalist Alexis Madrigal, engineer Deb Raji of New York University's AI Now Institute, artist/programmer Sam Lavigne, and AI ethicisit Rachel Thomas.
