Studies forecast that AI will boost profitability by an average of 38% by the year 2035. If an AI program interpreted this data, the result would be conclusive: Artificial intelligence is quickly becoming one of the economy's sharpest competitive edges. According to McKinsey & Company, just 47% of executives report embedding AI into one business process, and only 21% report implementing AI in multiple ways. While the technology is progressing at historically unprecedented rates, the majority of enterprises still face either barriers to entry or difficulty determining next steps. Whether a company is beginning its journey with AI, or ready to take the next measured step, it's essential to conduct a comprehensive AI audit.

Lev Landau, a Nobelist and one of the fathers of a great school of Soviet physics, had a logarithmic scale for ranking theorists, from 1 to 5. A physicist in the first class had ten times the impact of someone in the second class, and so on. He modestly ranked himself as 2.5 until late in life, when he became a 2. In the first class were Heisenberg, Bohr, and Dirac among a few others. My friends in the humanities, or other areas of science like biology, are astonished and disturbed that physicists and mathematicians (substitute the polymathic von Neumann for Einstein) might think in this essentially hierarchical way. Apparently, differences in ability are not manifested so clearly in those fields. But I find Landau's scheme appropriate: There are many physicists whose contributions I cannot imagine having made.

Telemarketing advertising campaigns are a billion-dollar effort and one of the central uses of the machine learning model. However, its data and methods are usually kept under lock and key. The Project is related to the direct marketing campaigns of a banking institution. The marketing campaigns were based on phone calls. Often, more than one contact to the same client was required, in order to access if the product (bank term deposit) would be ('yes') or not ('no') subscribed.

Studies of networked phenomena, such as interactions in online social media, often rely on incomplete data, either because these phenomena are partially observed, or because the data is too large or expensive to acquire all at once. Analysis of incomplete data leads to skewed or misleading results. In this paper, we investigate limitations of learning to complete partially observed networks via node querying. Concretely, we study the following problem: given (i) a partially observed network, (ii) the ability to query nodes for their connections (e.g., by accessing an API), and (iii) a budget on the number of such queries, sequentially learn which nodes to query in order to maximally increase observability. We call this querying process Network Online Learning and present a family of algorithms called NOL*. These algorithms learn to choose which partially observed node to query next based on a parameterized model that is trained online through a process of exploration and exploitation. Extensive experiments on both synthetic and real world networks show that (i) it is possible to sequentially learn to choose which nodes are best to query in a network and (ii) some macroscopic properties of networks, such as the degree distribution and modular structure, impact the potential for learning and the optimal amount of random exploration.

Abstract--K-means is a classical clustering algorithm with wide applications. However, soft K-means, or fuzzy c-means at m 1, remains unsolved since 1981. T o address this challenging open problem, we propose a novel clustering model, i.e. Probabilistic K-Means (PKM), which is also a nonlinear programming model constrained on linear equalities and linear inequalities. In theory, we can solve the model by active gradient projection, while inefficiently . Thus, we further propose maximum-step active gradient projection and fast maximum-step active gradient projection to solve it more efficiently . By experiments, we evaluate the performance of PKM and how well the proposed methods solve it in five aspects: initialization robustness, clustering performance, descending stability, iteration number, and convergence speed. It has been widely used in image and video processing [1] - [4], speech processing [5], biology [6], medicine [7], sociology [8], and so on.

Deep neural networks have made significant impacts in many fields of computer science and engineering especially for large-scale and high-dimensional learning problems. Well-designed neural network architectures, efficient training algorithms, and high-performance computing technologies have made neural-network-based methods very successful in tremendous real applications. Especially in supervised learning, e.g., image classification and objective detection, the great advantages of neural-network-based methods have been demonstrated over traditional learning methods. Mathematically speaking, supervised learning is essentially a regression problem where the problem of function approximation plays a fundamental role. Understanding the approximation capacity of deep neural networks has become a key question for revealing the power of deep learning.

--This paper proposes a distributed deep learning framework for privacy-preserving medical data training. In order to avoid patients' data leakage in medical platforms, the hidden layers in the deep learning framework are separated and where the first layer is kept in platform and others layers are kept in a centralized server . Whereas keeping the original patients' data in local platforms maintain their privacy, utilizing the server for subsequent layers improves learning performance by using all data from each platform during training. Artificial intelligence and deep learning computations are widely used in many areas. Among them, deep learning for medical applications is one of the most remarkable applications, where deep learning algorithms are directly utilized for medical applications, e.g., learning-based abnormality detection in medical imaging, statistical inference for public health, and deep learning based preventive medicine [1], [2]. Medical images are large and sensitive by nature, making scalability and privacy two pressing issues in applying deep learning to the problem at hand.

Arguably, the most important scenario for search technology is lifelong learning and education, both for students and all citizens. Human learning is a complex multidimensional activity, which includes procedural learning (e.g., activity patterns associated with cooking, sports) and knowledge-based learning (e.g., mathematics, genetics). It also includes different levels of learning, such as the ability to solve an individual math problem correctly. It also includes the development of meta-cognitive self-regulatory abilities, such as recognizing the type of problem being solved and whether one is in an error state. These latter types of awareness enable correctly regulating ones approach to solving a problem, and recognizing when one is off track by repairing momentary errors as needed. Later stages of learning enable the generalization of learned skills or information from one context or domain to others such as applying math problem solving to calculations in the wild (e.g., calculation of garden space, engineering calculations required for a structurally sound building).
