10 questions, you always wanted to ask those organisations disrupted by AI, but never did!

#artificialintelligence

Ms Rachel Falzon, is a People Performance Consultant. She has held positions as Director of Studies, Business Development and Communications Manager, Strategic HR Consultant and until recently, Advisory Manager with one of the Big Four. In this second part, Professor Alexiei Dingli, an AI expert, asks her about digital disruption but from a people's perspective. This follows a first article where the disruption caused by AI was discussed. I think it's a matter of taking stock holistically of how and why the business landscape has changed so dramatically.

Machine Learning Tutorial - What you need to know for 2020?

#artificialintelligence

Artificial Intelligence has stirred the IT world. More and more companies are headed towards adopting AI for their advantage. Machine learning is a subset of Artificial Intelligence. In Machine learning, machines are coded with algorithms to behave like human beings. They respond to a stimulus, react to the inputs and much more. In this blog, we will endeavour to learn more about various things associated with Machine Learning such as its background, its languages, example and much more. Stay tuned and keep reading!


'I want to learn Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. Where can I start?'

#artificialintelligence

I was working at the Apple Store and I wanted a change. To start building the tech I was servicing. I began looking into Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI). Every week it seems like Google or Facebook are releasing a new kind of AI to make things faster or improve our experience. And don't get me started on the number of self-driving car companies.

Skilling for the future that has already arrived - Microsoft News Center Canada

#artificialintelligence

There's no denying the growing skills gap that currently looms over our workforce. The good news is that awareness is increasing. Business leaders and institutions recognize the fundamental need to invest in skills training programs for their people to stay competitive in today's digital economy. Unfortunately, while the skills gap challenge is well established, few are taking action, and the solutions are not moving quickly enough. In 2020, we can expect 200,000 tech jobs to go unfilled in Canada, according ICTC.


The best Online Tutorials On Artificial Intelligence For Beginners

#artificialintelligence

The ultimate goal of artificial intelligence is to create computer programs that can solve problems and achieve goals like humans would. There is scope in developing machines in robotics, computer vision, language detection machine, game playing, expert systems, speech recognition machine and much more. To take your first steps down the artificial intelligence career path, hiring managers will likely require that you hold at least a bachelor's degree in mathematics and basic computer technology. However, for the most part, bachelor's degrees will only get you into entry-level positions.Following are some of the online tutorials for those who wish to start their career in artificial intelligence. This course is designed for both testers and developers.


Latent Replay for Real-Time Continual Learning

arXiv.org Machine Learning

Training deep networks on light computational devices is nowadays very challenging. Continual learning techniques, where complex models are incrementally trained on small batches of new data, can make the learning problem tractable even for CPU-only edge devices. However, a number of practical problems need to be solved: catastrophic forgetting before anything else. In this paper we introduce an original technique named ``Latent Replay'' where, instead of storing a portion of past data in the input space, we store activations volumes at some intermediate layer. This can significantly reduce the computation and storage required by native rehearsal. To keep the representation stable and the stored activations valid we propose to slow-down learning at all the layers below the latent replay one, leaving the layers above free to learn at full pace. In our experiments we show that Latent Replay, combined with existing continual learning techniques, achieves state-of-the-art accuracy on a difficult benchmark such as CORe50 NICv2 with nearly 400 small and highly non-i.i.d. batches. Finally, we demonstrate the feasibility of nearly real-time continual learning on the edge through the porting of the proposed technique on a smartphone device.


Automated speech-based screening of depression using deep convolutional neural networks

arXiv.org Machine Learning

Early detection and treatment of depression is essential in promoting remission, preventing relapse, and reducing the emotional burden of the disease. Current diagnoses are primarily subjective, inconsistent across professionals, and expensive for individuals who may be in urgent need of help. This paper proposes a novel approach to automated depression detection in speech using convolutional neural network (CNN) and multipart interactive training. The model was tested using 2568 voice samples obtained from 77 non-depressed and 30 depressed individuals. In experiment conducted, data were applied to residual CNNs in the form of spectrograms, images auto-generated from audio samples. The experimental results obtained using different ResNet architectures gave a promising baseline accuracy reaching 77%.


Solving Arithmetic Word Problems Automatically Using Transformer and Unambiguous Representations

arXiv.org Machine Learning

Constructing accurate and automatic solvers of math word problems has proven to be quite challenging. Prior attempts using machine learning have been trained on corpora specific to math word problems to produce arithmetic expressions in infix notation before answer computation. We find that custom-built neural networks have struggled to generalize well. This paper outlines the use of Transformer networks trained to translate math word problems to equivalent arithmetic expressions in infix, prefix, and postfix notations. In addition to training directly on domain-specific corpora, we use an approach that pre-trains on a general text corpus to provide foundational language abilities to explore if it improves performance. We compare results produced by a large number of neural configurations and find that most configurations outperform previously reported approaches on three of four datasets with significant increases in accuracy of over 20 percentage points. The best neural approaches boost accuracy by almost 10% on average when compared to the previous state of the art.
